Increasing soil salinization poses a severe threat to global agricultural production. Quercetin, a natural compound known to effectively alleviate abiotic stress, has an unclear molecular regulatory mechanism in enhancing soybean salt tolerance. To investigate its mechanism of action, this study ...
Poplar seedlings were cultivated in saline soil with low salt concentrations for 120 days, after which root tissues were harvested for untargeted metabolomic analysis. For each genotype, roots of three to four seedlings were pooled to form one biological replicate, with four biological replicates...
Small volatile molecules are considered to play a role in promoting plant growth, with acetoin and 2,3-butanediol being representative examples. In this study, we employed metabolic engineering of Bacillus subtilis to enhance the production of acetoin and 2,3-butanediol, and investigated the...
