Insights into Abiotic Stress Responses and Recovery Patterns

More about the book

Metabolic adaptations in plants under abiotic stresses, such as hypoxia, flooding, and drought, reveal their complex nature. Hypoxic stress, particularly in Arabidopsis seedlings, triggers significant shifts in metabolites, which alter during stress but return to baseline upon reoxygenation. An untargeted metabolomics approach uncovers distinct metabolic responses across various stresses, affecting key pathways like amino acid and sugar metabolism. This overview highlights the critical role of oxidative stress and the importance of metabolomics in understanding plant resilience and adaptation mechanisms, calling for further research in this area.
