Fig. 3From: Functional characterization and regulatory mechanism of wheat CPK34 kinase in response to drought stressTranscripts of the TaCPK34 gene in leaves. Wheat plants were suffering from 20% PEG6000-stimulated water deficiency (a) and 100 μM ABA (b). Transcripts are determined by using qPCR and the TaActin gene is used as the internal control. Each value is the mean ± standard deviation of at least three independent measurements. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences (P < 0.05)Back to article page
