- Intervention effect TaNRX1 overexpression significantly enhanced drought tolerance of wheat lines.
- Intervention effect TaNRX1 overexpression lines had a higher survival rate under drought than wild type.
- Intervention effect TaNRX1 overexpression lines had higher leaf chlorophyll, proline and soluble sugar content than wild type under drought.
- Intervention effect TaNRX1 overexpression lines had lower relative electrical conductivity and malondialdehyde than WT.
- Intervention effect TaNRX1 overexpression lines had lower hydrogen peroxide and superoxide anion levels than WT.
- Intervention effect RNAi wheat lines showed the opposite results to TaNRX1 overexpression lines.
- Observation Common differentially expressed genes of TaNRX1 OE and RNAi lines were mainly in starch and sucrose metabolism and related pathways.
- Observation The differentially expressed genes were related to WRKY, MYB and bHLH transcription factor families.
- Mechanism TaNRX1 positively regulates drought stress tolerance in wheat.
