Drought stress alters rubber molecular weight and relative expression levels of key genes -involved in natural rubber production in rubber dandelion, Taraxacum kok-saghyz
2023-09-07
Abstract excerpt
Natural rubber (NR) is a vital raw material for many industries, but its main source, Hevea brasiliensis , is vulnerable to diseases and climate change. Taraxacum kok-saghyz (rubber dandelion, TKS) is an alternative source of NR that can grow in temperate regions. This study investigated the effect of drought stress on NR biosynthesis and quality in TKS roots. Drought stress didn’t affect the total rubber content,...
