Phenotype, stomata state and activity of antioxidant enzymes in wild-type (WT), transgenic lines (AgAPX1–4 and AgAPX1–16) before and after drought treatment. a Comparison of growth phenotype among transgenic and non-transgenic Arabidopsis lines. For drought stress treatments, these plants were treated with 400 mM mannitol and photographed after 7 days. b Stomatal aperture measurements of different Arabidopsis lines in response to 24 h of drought. c APX activity assay (after 24 h of treatment). d SOD activity assay (after 24 h of treatment). e POD activity assay (after 24 h of treatment). f CAT activity assay (after 24 h of treatment)
