Proline content (a), Membrane injury (b), and Photosynthetic yield (Fv/Fm) (c) were measured at indicated time points. (K2 = Non-transgenic line, ST = actin1:Hva1 transgenic lines) Values are significant at P ≤ 0.05

Proline content (a), percent membrane injury (b), photosynthetic yield (Fv/Fm) (c), and relative water content (RWC) (d) were measured to evaluate metabolic status of plants. Leaf tissues harvested on 0 day of the experiment were used for various analyses. Results are average of three experiments and three independent plants were taken for each experiment. Error bars represent standard deviation. Values are significant at P ≤ 0.05
