Abstract
Enhancing water use efficiency is a key strategy to improve drought resistance in cotton. Although drought priming has been recognized for enhancing plant tolerance to drought, its impact on upland cotton remains uncertain. In a pot trial with Xinluzao19, we studied the influence of soil drought and drought priming on seedlings. Primed plants maintained similar height to non-primed ones but showed significant differences in hydrogen peroxide, malondialdehyde, and enzyme activities, indicating improved reactive oxygen species (ROS) homeostasis. Transcriptome analysis revealed 1441 upregulated genes and 12,024 downregulated genes in RD6D compared to D6D. GO enrichment and KEGG metabolic pathway analysis also revealed that numerous stress-related genes and defense pathways were significantly enriched. Some genes linked to ascorbate peroxidase and superoxide dismutase displayed similar expression profiles with enzymatic activities. These insights contribute to enhancing cotton and overall crop productivity, particularly under water-deficit conditions.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
