Rhizosphere microorganism and leaf metabolomics explain the adaption and habitat heterogeneity of two Zoysia species from the Yellow River Delta
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: This study investigates the metabolic responses of two Zoysia species (Z. macrostachya and Z. sinica) adapted to distinct microhabitats in the Yellow River Delta. Leaf samples were collected from natural populations growing under different saline-alkaline conditions. Untargeted metabolomics was performed using LC-MS in both positive and negative ion modes to profile the metabolite composition. The results revealed significant differences in key metabolic pathways, including tryptophan metabolism, flavonoid biosynthesis, and phenylpropanoid metabolism, between the two species, providing insights into their differential adaptation to saline-alkaline stress.
