TaPEPKR2 transgenic plants show improved dehydration tolerance. (A) WT and TaPEPKR2 transgenic seedlings grown in soil were subjected to water deprivation for 25 days, then re-watered for ∼1 week. (B) Survival rates of WT and TaPEPKR2 transgenic plants after dehydration treatment. Data are the mean ± SD of three replicates (n = 30 for each experiment); ∗∗P < 0.01 (Student’s t-test). (C) Relative water loss rate of WT and TaPEPKR2 transgenic plants. Data are the mean ± SD of three replicates; P < 0.05, ∗∗P < 0.01 (Student’s t-test). (D) Leaf wilting of detached leaves from WT and transgenic plants after 5 h.
