Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Melatonin reduced leaf electrolyte leakage under drought.
- Intervention effect Melatonin increased seed yield under drought.
- Observation Drought and melatonin regulated 852 core differentially expressed genes in soybean leaves.
- Observation The most enriched drought-responsive genes were involved in secondary metabolite biosynthesis.
- Intervention effect Melatonin raised accumulation of drought-tolerance-related secondary metabolites.
- Mechanism The authors highlighted phenylpropanoid, flavonoid, isoflavonoid, and steroid biosynthesis pathways in melatonin-mediated drought tolerance.
