Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Drought is a major environmental disaster that causes crop yield loss worldwide. Metabolites are involved in various environmental stress responses of plants. However, the genetic control of metabolomes underlying crop environmental stress adaptation remains elusive. RESULTS: Here, we perform non-targeted metabolic profiling of leaves for 385 maize natural inbred lines grown under well-watered as well...
