Widely targeted metabolic profiling reveals drought resistance mechanisms in alfalfa leaves.
BMC plant biology 20250922 1
Drought is considered a primary factor constraining alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) yield and acreage. To understand the internal drought resistance mechanisms of alfalfa is essential for breeding drought-resistant alfalfa varieties. Here, we compared the phenotypic characteristics, metabolic pathways and metabolites of drought-resistant (Longzhong, LZ) and drought-sensitive (Gannong No. 3, G3) varieties under drought stress. Phenotypic analysis revealed that drought stress reduced plant height, si ...[more]
