TaASR1,a transcription factor gene in wheat confers drought stress tolerance in transgenic tobacco
introduction materials and methods results discussion
Interestingly ,a recent study showed that rice ASR protein OsASR1,could function as an effective reactive oxygen species(ROS)scavenger and its expression in yeast cells enhanced acquired tolerance of ROS-induce doxidative stress through induction of various cell rescue proteins . However , whether ASRs confer drought stress tolerance by regulating ROS homeostasis through the antioxidant system is yet to be elucidated in plants.

Generation of transgenic tobacco overexpressing TaASR1
Transgenic tobacco plants overexpressing TaASR1 under the control of CaMV 35S promoter were generated. A total of 14 transgenic lines(T1)were identified by hygromycin-resistance analysis and PCR using primers specific to TaASR1 and GFP. Among the T1 lines , three(OE2,OE5 and OE12)segregated at a ratio of 3:1 based on hygromycin resistance. seedlings from all three transgenic T2 lines grew well on MS medium containing 40 mg L-1 of hygromycin. Among the lines OE5 and OE12 had higher TaASR1 expression levels .
Introduction
Plants are frequently challenged by various harsh environmental factors , among which drought stress is adverse because it limits plant growth, development and crop productivity. The major response of plants to drought stress include perception of stress signals and their transduction that activate various stress-related genes and synthesis of proteins with diverse functions resulting in physiological and metabolic responses .

water withholding for 30 d
Collection of leaves to measure RWC, IL, MDA, H2O2 ,SOD .CAT , POD.
One hundred and fifty surface-sterilized seeds from each transgenic line or control were sown o00 mM mannitol for 8 d to detect germination rate
conserved regions were observed in TaASR1:a small N-terminal sequence with 18–20 amino acids and a longer C-terminal region with at least 80 amino acids. The N-terminal consensus sequence has a stretch of six His residues in a 10 amino acid sequence that is typical for Zn-binding. In the C-terminal region , there are two Ala-rich regions , one site for N-myristoylation, a putative nuclear targeting signal an ABA/WDS domain that is described in ABA-,water , stressand ripening-induced proteins.
ASR protein have low molecular weight and are heat-stable and highly hydrophilic observed specifically in plants. Although the precise physiological function of ASRs remains unknown , they are presumed to have functional duality in plants. Firstly ,ASRs are classified to group 7in the late embryogenesis abundant(LEA)protein family with high hydrophilicity , which correlates to the high glycinecontent for direct plant protection .Secondly , ASRs have been suggested to be transcriptional regulators because of their ability to bind DNA in a sequence-specific and Zn2+dependent manner during the transition from a disordered to an ordered state.
