Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Low Mo concentrations increased the growth of foxtail millet.
- Intervention effect High Mo concentrations suppressed the growth of foxtail millet.
- Intervention effect The 8 mg L− 1 Mo treatment produced more differentially expressed genes than other concentrations.
- Intervention effect The 15 mg L− 1 Mo treatment inhibited starch and sucrose metabolism compared with 8 mg L− 1.
- Intervention effect The 15 mg L− 1 Mo treatment enhanced phenylpropanoid and flavonoid biosynthesis compared with 8 mg L− 1.
- Intervention effect High Mo levels up-regulated key carotenoid biosynthesis genes.
- Observation High Mo levels modulated hormone signaling in foxtail millet.
- Observation RNA-seq of foxtail millet under varying Mo levels identified crucial pathways including phenylpropanoid synthesis, starch metabolism and hormone signaling.
- Mechanism Supra-optimal Mo affected foxtail millet physiology through carbon and nitrogen cycle imbalance and antioxidant impairment, ultimately suppressing growth.
