Influence of drought-hardening on growth indices and leaf water potential (LWP) of two tobacco varieties in response to drought stress. Plant fresh weight (a), plant dry weight (b), and LWP (c) of the various drought-hardening and non-drought-hardening treatments under drought stress. The values are presented as means ± SDs. Different letters indicate a significant difference using the least significant difference (LSD) test, p < 0.05. HCK presents HongHuaDaJinYuan seedlings with no drought-hardening; HT1 indicates 24 h drought-hardened seedlings of HongHuaDaJinYuan; HT2 indicates 48 h drought-hardened seedlings of HongHuaDaJinYuan; HT3 indicates 72 h drought-hardened seedlings of HongHuaDaJinYuan; YCK represents Yun Yan-100 seedlings with no drought-hardening; YT1 indicates 24 h drought-hardened seedlings of Yun Yan-100; YT2 indicates 48 h drought-hardened seedlings of Yun Yan-100; YT3 indicates 72 h drought-hardened seedlings of Yun Yan-100
