Abstract
Potato (Solanum tubersosum L.) is susceptible to various environmental stresses such as frost, high temperature, and drought. Enhancement of potato drought tolerance can reduce yield loss under drought that has negative effect on potato tuber growth. Genetic engineering can be utilized to achieve this goal, but such approaches using endogenous potato genes have rarely been applied. Since unpredictable global weather changes cause more severe and frequent water limiting conditions, improvement of potato drought tolerance can minimize such adverse effects under drought and can impact on sustainable potato production. Genetic engineering can be utilized to improve potato drought tolerance, but such approaches using endogenous potato genes have rarely been applied. We were obtained AtbZIP28 gene transgenic potato plants. It is identified transcript levels at various stress conditions, polyethylene glycol (PEG), NaCl, abscisic
