Abstract

Methods are described for the identification of genes useful for conferring tolerance in plants to abiotic stress. Transgenic plants and seeds comprising the stress tolerant genes are also described. Methods to monitor the growth rate of the transgenic plants under stressed or non-stressed conditions are also described.
