Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Transgenic peanut co-expressing AtDREB2A, AtHB7 and AtABF3 showed increased tolerance to drought, salinity and oxidative stresses relative to wild type.
- Intervention effect Transgenic peanut showed improved membrane and chlorophyll stability under stress.
- Mechanism Improved membrane and chlorophyll stability of transgenic peanut is attributed to enhanced ROS scavenging and osmotic adjustment by proline synthesis.
- Intervention effect Transgenic peanut showed an increase in total plant biomass compared to wild type.
- Association Improved stress tolerance in transgenic peanut lines was associated with induced expression of various CT-related genes.
- Recommendation The authors recommend co-expression of stress-responsive TFs to improve abiotic stress tolerance in crop plants.
