Other claims from this paper (5)
- Mechanism B. gentianoides reallocates carbon to the leaf base during dry-season senescence, supporting wet-season resprouting.
- Observation V. caruncularis metabolic shifts emphasize osmoprotection and ROS scavenging.
- Observation B. gentianoides emphasizes starch and polyol storage for new leaves.
- Mechanism Hormone signaling and flavonoid accumulation contribute to V. caruncularis extreme dehydration tolerance.
- Mechanism Hormone signaling and flavonoid accumulation facilitate ethylene-mediated senescence in B. gentianoides.
