Drought tolerance assay of transgenic Arabidopsis plants overexpressing PbrPUB18. a Phenotypes of 20-day-old transgenic plants and WT before and after 12 days drought stress; b Images of (Fv/Fm). The false color code depicted on the right of the image ranges from 0 (black) to 1.0 (purple); Electrolyte leakage (c), MDA contents (d) in the WT, OE-4 and OE-5 after drought treatment; e Fv/Fm of WT, OE-4 and OE-5 before and after drought stress; f Histochemical staining with DAB and NBT for detection of H2O2 and O2−, respectively, in WT, OE-4 and OE-5 after drought stress for 12 days; Levels of H2O2 (g) and anti-O2− (h) in Arabidopsis WT, OE-4 and OE-5 after drought treatment. Asterisks indicate that the value is significantly different from that of the WT at the same time point (**P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001)
