Project description:The mian goal of the study was to identify drought responsive genes of Indian mulberry (Morus alba L.) leaf tissue. Drought stress was imposed at whole plant leve; usig gravimetric approach. Leaf tissue was harvested 14 days post drought stress imposition and used for transcriptome analaysis. Two levels of drought stress (100% and 40% soil field capacity) was maintained by controlled irrigation. The leaf tissue was collected, total RNA was isolated converted to cDNA and used for analysis
