Effect of GmST1 overexpression on Arabidopsis drought tolerance. (A) Overexpression of GmST1 reduces water loss through transpiration. Leaves were excised from 4-week-old Arabidopsis lines (Col-0, GmST1–1, and GmST1–1) and monitored their water losses under ambient temperature for 210 min. Water loss was calculated as the percentage of initial fresh weight. (B) Overexpression of GmST1 confers drought tolerance in Arabidopsis. 4-week-old Arabidopsis plants (Col-0 and GmST1–1) were subjected to a water stress by withholding water. Photos were taken after 11 days of drought stress.
