Fig. 8. The Introgression of TaWD40-4B.1C enhances drought tolerance and the TaWD40-4B.1C proportion is correlative with annual rainfall.
a Introgression of TaWD40-4B.1C enhances drought tolerance of the accession harboring with TaWD40-4B.1T. b Introgression of TaWD40-4B.1T decreases drought tolerance of the accession harboring with TaWD40-4B.1C. c The proportions of TaWD40-4B.1C and TaWD40-4B.1T in 600 Chinese wheat accessions. d The proportions of TaWD40-4B.1C and TaWD40-4B.1T in the provinces/cities of the major wheat-planted district in China. e The proportion of TaWD40-4B.1T is positively correlative with annual rainfall with the Pearson correlation analysis (n = 16 wheat planting districts; P = 7.78 × 10−5). f The working model of TaWD40-4B.1C and TaWD40-4B.1T in drought tolerance of wheat.
