Comparative proteomics analysis between maize and sorghum uncovers important proteins and metabolic pathways mediating drought tolerance
(MDPI, 2023)Drought severely affects crop yield and yield stability. Maize and sorghum are major crops in Africa and globally, and both are negatively impacted by drought. However, sorghum has a better ability to withstand drought ... -
Seed germination and seedling establishment in pistacia atlantica desf. and pistacia lentiscus l. under drought
(Russian Journal of Plant Physiology, 2023)The rehabilitation of degraded Mediterranean areas requires reintroduction of key-stone woody species. However, seed germination and seedling establishment for native species are poor. Germination behavior of Pistacia ... -
Water deficit-induced changes in phenolic acid content in maize leaves is associated with altered expression of cinnamate 4-hydroxylase and p-coumaric acid 3-hydroxylase
(MDPI, 2023)The amino acid phenylalanine is a precursor to phenolic acids that constitute the lignin biosynthetic pathway. Although there is evidence of a role of some phenolic acids in plant responses to pathogens and salinity, ...
