Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Drought inhibited photosynthesis.
- Intervention effect Drought decreased chlorophyll content.
- Intervention effect Drought increased malondialdehyde and proline accumulation.
- Intervention effect Heat alone did not significantly affect tobacco plants.
- Intervention effect Heat intensified the effect of drought stress.
- Intervention effect High light further increased proline content.
- Intervention effect OC-I transformed tobacco had higher superoxide dismutase and guaiacol peroxidase activities and isoforms than controls in low light under stress and non-stress conditions.
- Intervention effect OC-I expression did not highly affect catalase activity.
