Abscisic Acid, Stress, and Ripening (TtASR1) Gene as a Functional Marker for Salt Tolerance in Durum Wheat

Figure 4

The growth performance of TtASR 1 cells. (a) Growth of IPTG induced E. coli cultures producing TtASR 1 or control pGEX4T-1 with a standard medium at 37°C. The increasing density of the liquid cultures was measured at 600 nm absorbance. (b) Cells viability ratio of E. coli transformed with pGEX4T-1-TtASR1 and pGEX4T-1 constructs under cold and heat stress. The values are the mean ± SE from three samples. Significant differences in the absorbance and cell viability are indicated as evaluated with Student’s t-test.
