Salt tolerance test of TaOAT-5BL overexpressing transgenic lines and their wild type Fielder in 150 mM NaCI containing medium. a Salt tolerance phenotype of TaOAT-5BL transgenic lines and wild type Fielder cultured for 30 days. b Survival rate of TaOAT-5BL transgenic lines and wild type Fielder cultured 30 days. c Relative expression analysis of TaOAT-5BL in transgenic lines and wild type Fielder cultured for 30 days. d Root length of the surviving plants cultured for 30 days. e Shoot length of the surviving plants cultured for 30 days. FC represents wild type Fielder and OE-F7, OE-F8, and OE-F9 are TaOAT-5BL overexpressing transgenic lines derived from Fielder. The data was average of three replications and analyzed using IBM-SPSS statistic 20. Small letters in bold represent significant differences between groups at α < 0.05 using Duncan’s multiple range tests. Bars indicate the standard error of the mean
