Non-targeted metabolomics analysis of metabolite changes in two quinoa genotypes under drought stress.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Quinoa is an important economic crop, drought is one of the key factors affecting quinoa yield. Clarifying the adaptation strategy of quinoa to drought is conducive to cultivating drought-tolerant varieties. At present, the study of quinoa on drought stress-related metabolism and the identification of related metabolites are still unknown. As a direct feature of biochemical functions, metabolites can reveal the biochemical pathways involved in drought response.

Result

Here, we studied the physiological and metabolic responses of drought-tolerant genotype L1 and sensitive genotype HZ1. Under drought conditions, L1 had higher osmotic adjustment ability and stronger root activity than HZ1, and the relative water content of L1 was also higher than that of HZ1. In addi
