Improved Salinity Tolerance in Carrizo Citrange Rootstock through Overexpression of Glyoxalase System Genes

Figure 1

(a) Schematic representation of the T-DNA regions of the transformation vectors. BjGlyI + PgGlyII construction containing glyoxalase I from Brassica juncea (GlyI) and glyoxalase II from Pennisetum glaucum (GlyII) driven by independent CaMV35S promoters and containing the HPTII selectable marker gene. (b) BjGlyI + PgGlyII expression in Carrizo citrange transgenic lines. The transcript abundance was normalized to the lowest expression for each gene. Bars represent means of three plants ± standard error. Different uppercase letters within each figure and gene indicate significant differences at . ND: not detected.
