Transcription profiling of rice plants under the Sda (Air-drying) condition in shoots
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: In this series of experiments, we wanted to study the transcriptional responses of plants to different levels of water limitation. For mild drought stress, we controlled water potential (a scientific concept for dryness of soil) by using an automated watering system. This system adds water to soil based on the pF values reported by a pF sensor in soil. pF is a classical and widely used index of water potential that was first defined by Schofield (1935). For severe stress conditions, we withheld watering or even dried plants on a lab bench. Here, the transcriptional profiles were compared between well-watered and Sda-treated rice seedling shoots.
Sda (Severe dehydration stress by air drying): We designated the Sda as a term that means a dehydration stress in our experiments. The dehydration stress treatment was carried out by pulling plants from the soil and leaving them on a bench.
