Screening of non-transgenic and transgenic plants for drought and salt tolerance using lysimetric experiment. (A) Lysimetric experiment setup. Representative pictures of stress-induced phenotype of non-transgenic (NT) and transgenic (T) lines under (B) drought stress,15 days of stress imposition (left panel) and 30 days of stress imposition (right panel) (C) salt stress, 7 days of stress imposition (left panel) and 15 days of stress imposition (right panel). (D) qRT-PCR analysis of the T₃ generation peanut transgenic lines for the AtHDG11 transcript at various time points under induced drought and salt lysimetric experiments to check the stress-inducible expression of transgene AtHDG11 under rd29A promoter.
