Transgenic ArabidopsisCaPMEI1-OX lines exhibit enhanced tolerance to drought stress. a Seed germination in wild-type, smGFP and transgenic plants on the MS media containing 0, 200 and 600 mM mannitol. The data represent the mean ± SD of 100 seeds for each line tested. b Relative root length of wild-type, smGFP and transgenic lines in MS agar medium containing different concentrations of mannitol. Three independent experiments were performed with 40 seedlings of both wild-type and transgenic lines. c Drought tolerance test of transgenic seedlings. Wild-type, smGFP and transgenic lines were germinated and grown in 1× MS agar medium. Each seedling was transferred to liquid medium containing 100 mM mannitol. d Wild-type, smGFP and the CaPMEI1 transgenic Arabidopsis plants after 15 days without water. e Water loss from the excised leaves of wild-type, smGFP and transgenic plants. Data represent the mean ± SD from three independent experiments
