Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Photosynthesis fell from 19 to 0.5 µmol m −2 s −1 during dehydration.
- Observation Starch degradation was a major drought response.
- Intervention effect Root mannitol increased to 41% of nonstructural carbohydrates under drought.
- Observation Gene family members potentially relevant to long-term or stress-induced carbon storage were identified.
- Observation Expression patterns partitioned among beta amylase and starch synthase family members.
- Mechanism Three beta amylases may facilitate rapid starch degradation under heat and drought.
- Association Stress-related starch metabolism genes correlated with NSC fluctuations during drought and recovery.
- Observation Daily starch metabolism gene expression differed from stress-mode expression, including genes unique to stress response.
