MR219 transgenic rice line which overexpressed an auxin-binding protein (ABP57) and its wild-type cultivar, MR219, were screened under well-watered (WW) and drought stress (DS) conditions at the early reproductive stage. This study was conducted with the standard planting distance and under a normal environment to assess the yield advantages based on the field conditions. The aim of this study was to understand the response of these rice genotypes towards DS at morpho-physiological, biochemical, and agronomical levels. It was found that the DS had affected all these levels of the genotypes studied; however, the transgenic plant showed a higher number of tillers, flag leaf area, biomass, relative water content, total chlorophyll content, and antioxidative defense mechanism than the MR219 under DS. Compared to its wild-type, the transgenic plant showed an increased leaf photosynthetic rate by 7% under WW and 11% under DS. The transgenic plant also showed higher yields than MR219 under the WW (10%) and DS (59%). The results propose that drought tolerance is significantly improved in the MR219 transgenic rice line. It may develop a new opportunity for the drought-tolerant rice breeding programme via overexpression of ABP57. |
