Vetiver grass [Vetiveria zizanioides (L.) Nash] displays comprehensive abiotic stress tolerance closely related to fine maintenance of plant water relation mediated by plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIPs). Two open reading frame sequences of PIPs (867 and 873 bp) were cloned from vetiver grass and named as VzPIP1;1 and VzPIP2;1, respectively. Expression of green fluorescent protein revealed only subcellular localization of VzPIP2;1 in the plasma membrane. However, A. rhizogenes mediated transgenic soybean plants kept a higher water content in above-ground parts by improving root water transport and kept a more effective photosynthesis under normal and drought conditions.
