From: Overexpression of PtrABF gene, a bZIP transcription factor isolated from Poncirus trifoliata, enhances dehydration and drought tolerance in tobacco via scavenging ROS and modulating expression of stress-responsive genes

Figure 10

Expression profiles of the nine stress-responsive genes in wild type (WT), transgenic lines (#4 and #19) before and after drought treatment. RNA was extracted from leaves sampled at the onset and after 7 d of water stress, and reverse-transcribed to synthesize cDNA, which was used for RT- PCR analysis with primers specific for these genes. mRNA levels of these genes were normalized to the transcripts of Tubulin in the same samples. The graph below each gel panel was made based on the means of three independent experiments that was calculated relative to the level of WT of d 0, taken as 1.
