Integration of lipidomics and transcriptomics provides new insights into lipid metabolism in response to water deficit in Prunus spp. rootstock leaves

Abstract The mechanisms underlying the role of lipids in the response to water deficit in Prunus species have not yet been elucidated. To investigate these, a drought-tolerant rootstock (R40) and a drought-sensitive rootstock (R20) were exposed to well-watered (WW) and water deficit (WD) conditions. We combined physiological, lipidomics, and transcriptomics analyses to elucidate lipid dynamics in rootstock leaves and roots when coping drought. Data […]
