Co86032 control
The entire study was conducted with Co86032 and M4209 using pot culturesin wire-house experimental farm of Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai India.Single eyebud sets were treated with 0.1% carbandanzim and then planted in aplastic container filled with soilrite:sand:soil mix (8:1:1). Post emergence plants wereirrigated (bottom to top) with intermittent application of  MS. Once the plantsreached six leaf stage, both Co86032 and M4209 plants were divided into threeindependent sets. Set-1 and 2 were subjected with 50 and 200 mM NaCl stress,respectively by saturating the soil with salt solution prepared in water. Set-3 wascontinuously irrigated with water which served as control. All the three sets were alsogiven  MS solution weekly once. At 7 d post-stress, 1 st fully expanded leaf underdifferent treatments were harvested total RNA was isolated for RNAseq analysis.
