Table 1.
ABA and MDA content, and ΦPSII in maize vp5 and Vp5 leaves under control and drought conditions.
| Gene type | Control | Drought | Relative increase/decrease (%) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ABA | Vp5 | 76.50 (ng/gFW) b | 168.64 (ng/gFW) a | 120.45 ↑ |
| vp5 | 17.28 (ng/gFW) d | 21.08 (ng/gFW) c | 21.98 ↑ | |
| MDA | Vp5 | 5.12 (nmol/gFW) d | 15.01 (nmol/gFW) b | 193.1 ↑ |
| vp5 | 7.45 (nmol/gFW) c | 24.78 (nmol/gFW) a | 232.6 ↑ | |
| ΦPSII | Vp5 | 0.612 a | 0.410 b | 33.00 ↓ |
| vp5 | 0.210 c | 0.128 d | 39.05 ↓ |
Each value represents the average of three biological replicas. For Dun's Results, different characters are considered to be significant among different treatments. The symbols “↑and ↓” represent relative increase and decrease, respectively.
