Identification of drought-responsive transcripts in peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.)

We have used a reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction procedure (differential display) to identify cDNAs corresponding to transcripts affected by water stress in peanuts (Arachis hypogaea L.). Using this method, we have identified several mRNA transcripts that are up- or down-regulated foll...

Corley We have used a reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction procedure (differential display) to identify cDNAs corresponding to transcripts affected by water stress in peanuts (Arachis hypogaea L.). Using this method, we have identified several mRNA transcripts that are up- or down-regulated following water stress.

These products demonstrated qualitative and quantitative differences in the gene expression.

We have identified a total of 43 PTRD, which were significantly altered due to water stress. Slot blot analysis of 16 PTRD indicated that 12 were completely suppressed due to prolonged drought, two were down-regulated, and two were up-regulated under drought stress conditions. The 12 completely suppressed transcripts were studied further by RNA dot-blot analysis to compare their expression in drought tolerant and susceptible lines, which underwent three weeks of water stress.
