Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation CIMBL 55 had better survival and photosynthetic efficiency than SHEN 5003 at early seedling and late vegetative stages.
- Observation The drought tolerant maize cultivar had larger roots, longer roots, and more lateral and seminal roots than the sensitive cultivar.
- Observation Primary and seminal root transcriptional responses to PEG-induced water deficit were highly specific to genotype and root type.
- Observation CIMBL 55 showed enhanced expression of antioxidant defense genes relative to SHEN 5003.
- Observation CIMBL 55 had a higher proportion of water-deficit responsive genes than SHEN 5003.
- Observation Under water deficit, seminal roots showed more dramatic transcriptional changes than primary roots.
- Association Seminal roots had a more exclusive functional association with stress response than primary roots under water deficit.
- Observation Multiple root-specific and root-predominant hub genes involved in transcriptional regulation, root development, and drought response were identified.
