Other claims from this paper (8)
- Association Free amino acid profiles varied significantly with host species in sandalwood roots.
- Association Association with Pongamia pinnata gave the highest aspartic acid accumulation at 7.28 µg g − 1 FW.
- Association Association with Pongamia pinnata gave the highest glutamic acid accumulation at 13.87 µg g − 1 FW.
- Association Association with Pongamia pinnata gave the highest lysine accumulation at 67.11 µg g − 1 FW.
- Association Sesbania grandiflora was associated with minimal arginine at 0.55 µg g − 1 FW.
- Method / resource PCA explained 69.7% variance and identified arginine, lysine, and histidine as key contributors to metabolic shifts under stress.
- Observation Hierarchical clustering confirmed host-specific FAA patterns, with Pongamia pinnata and nitrogen-fixing hosts promoting stress-responsive amino acids.
- Association Pongamia pinnata, Dalbergia sissoo, and Punica granatum enhance nitrogen metabolism, amino acid accumulation, and physiological traits under stress in sandalwood.
