Abstract excerpt
As global climate change intensifies, drought has emerged as one of the most severe abiotic stresses, significantly constraining plant growth and jeopardizing global agricultural productivity. Understanding the responses of the plant root system architecture (RSA) to soil water deficit at both the physiological and molecular levels is critical for enhancing drought resistance. In this study, comparative...
