Level of RNA regulated by ABA treatment in selected putative genes. Total RNAs were isolated from tissues of 2-, 4-, and 6-week-old plants (seedling, flowering, and silique stages, respectively) and probed with gene-specific DNAs. (Lane M) RNA marker; (−) water-treated plants; (+) ABA-treated plants. The main hybridization bands corresponded to the transcripts predicted for each putative gene. The18S rDNA hybridization band serves as a sample loading control.
