Morphological and physiological responses to drought-stress. a Tomato plants at the 19th day of water withholding (Left) compared to control plants of the same age (Right). b Stomatal conductance of drought-stressed plants expressed as percentage of corresponding values of control plants of the same age. The data represent the mean of six biological replicates for C and DR and nine for D. c qRT-PCR analysis of late embryogenesis abundant gene (lea), which was used as stress-marker gene. The housekeeping elongation factor (EF-1α) gene was used for normalization; error bars indicate SD, n = 3. d Biometric measurements of control-recovered and drought-recovered plants. Measurements were conducted at the end of the rewatering treatment. Reported values are the mean ± SD of 12 biological samples for CR and 30 for DR (* P ≤ 0.05, ** P ≤ 0.01). C control, D drought-stressed, CR control-recovered, DR drought-recovered plants
