Heterologous expression of the AtDREB1A gene in transgenic peanut-conferred tolerance to drought and salinity stresses.

Research on genetic transformation in various crop plants using the DREB1A transcription factor has shown better abiotic stress tolerance in transgenic crops. The AtDREB1A transgenic peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. cv. GG 20), which was previously developed, was characterized in terms of its physio-bioc...
