Changes in proline biosynthesis in AaPEPC1-overexpressing tobacco plants. (a) Proline content in the leaves of transgenic plants expressing AaPEPC1 (OE1 and OE2) as well as empty vector (EV), and wild-type plants (WT). (b) and (c) Relative expression level of the proline biosynthesis genes pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthase (P5CS) and pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase (P5CR) in the AaPEPC1-overexpressing tobacco plants. Values represent means ± SD (n = 3). * and ** indicate significant difference from that of WT at p < 0.05 and p < 0.01, respectively, by one-way ANOVA analysis with post-hoc Tukey HSD.
