Title

Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Exogenous MG delayed leaf senescence and promoted photoassimilation under drought.
- Intervention effect Exogenous MG reduced drought induced yield loss by 14%.
- Mechanism Drought increased sugar accumulation in leaves through inhibited sugar transporters.
- Mechanism Drought led to glycolysis disequilibrium and endogenous MG overaccumulation.
- Intervention effect Exogenous MG upregulated glycolytic flux and the glyoxalase system.
- Observation Drought promoted trehalose-6-phosphate anabolic gene expression and suppressed catabolic gene expression.
- Mechanism Exogenous MG activated phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and promoted lignin and phenolic compounds.
