Generation and molecular characterization of Ubi:DaCBF4 transgenic rice plants. (A) Schematic representation of the binary vector construct used for DaCBF4 overexpression under the control of the maize ubiquitin promoter. RB, right border; Ubi-Pro, ubiquitin promoter; NOS-T, terminator sequence from nopaline synthase gene; 35S-Pro, CaMV 35S promoter; hph, hygromycin B phosphotransferase; T7-T, T7 terminator; LB, left border. (B) Semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis of 6-week-old wild-type and two independent Ubi:DaCBF4 T2 transgenic plants (lines #1 and #2). (C) Genomic Southern blot analysis. Total leaf genomic DNA was isolated from wild-type and T2 Ubi:DaCBF4 transgenic rice plants. DNA was digested by BamHI and hybridized with 32P-labeled hph probe under high-stringency conditions. (D) Overall morphology of 2-month-old wild type and T2 Ubi:DaCBF4 transgenic (independent lines #1 and #2) rice plants. Rice plants were grown under greenhouse conditions. Scale bars = 10 cm.
