The effects of drought on the abundance of selected transcript in nodules. (A) Thioredoxin (TRX1, Glyma06g41610), peroxiredoxins (Prx1, Glyma07g09240; Prx2, Glyma09g32540) and glutaredoxins (Grx1, Glyma12g13920; Grx2, Glyma16g07870). (B) Cysteine proteases (CP1–CP5, Glyma04g04400, Glyma17g05670, Glyma10g35100, Glyma14g40670 and Glyma04g03090, respectively). (C) Vacuolar processing enzymes (VPE1–VPE3, Glyma17g14680, Glyma05g04230 and Glyma14g10620, respectively). Data are the means ± s.e. of three different samples of nodules harvested from either well-watered (Control) or drought-treated plants at day 15 of the experiment Statistical differences for each time point between the control and drought are denoted by an asterisk (*P < 0·05).
