Salt Stress Re-Routes Terpenoid and Flavonoid Metabolism in Peppermint (Mentha × Piperita L.). [PDF]
ABSTRACT Salt stress is a major abiotic factor limiting crop productivity. This study investigated the physiological and biochemical responses of peppermint (Mentha × piperita L.) to increasing NaCl concentrations (25, 50, and 100 mM). Terpenoids and flavonoids were analysed by GC–MS and HPLC‐ESI‐MS/MS, respectively, alongside Real‐Time PCR for key ...
