The Mechanism of Seed Priming with Abscisic Acid for Enhancing Cuticle Deposition Under Drought Stress: Phenotypic and Transcriptomic Insights

open access: yesAgriculture
Plant cuticles are crucial for protecting plants from various environmental stresses. Seed priming with abscisic acid (ABA) enhances crop stress tolerance, but its molecular mechanisms in cuticular wax and cutin biosynthesis remain unclear.

Integrated analysis of transcriptomic and metabolomic data reveals how slurry ice treatment affects sugar metabolism in sweet corn (Zea mays L. var saccharata) during cold storage

open access: yesFood Frontiers
Sweet corn rapidly loses its sweetness, along with other nutrients, once it is harvested, which reduces its economic value. The present study was conducted to elucidate the regulatory mechanisms by which a rapid cooling slurry ice (SI) treatment followed
