Overexpression of MbICE1 improves drought resistance of plants. (A) PCR was used to verify the expression of MbICE1 in WT, VL, and transgenic Arabidopsis. The actin gene (AB638619.1) was selected as the control group. (B) Phenotypes of WT, VL (vector line), and overexpression-MbICE1 (S1, S8, and S9) under control, drought, and recovery growth. The white scale bar represents 3 cm. (C) Survival rates of WT and overexpression-MbICE1 lines after Drought 0 d and Drought 7 d. The value is the average of three repeats. The standard deviation is represented by the error bar. The asterisk indicates the difference compared to WT (** p ≤ 0.01).
