Identification of a volatile chemotype associated with resilience to water stress in domesticated varieties of cotton - BMC Biology (link.springer.com)
Background Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) mediate plant responses to environmental stresses; yet, their chemotypic variation and drought responsiveness remain poorly characterized in domesticated c...
This study links chemotype to constitutive VOCs and water status, and provides new tools for identifying stress-resilient cultivars and advances understanding of phytochemical strategies for crop management in a changing climate.
