Comparative Transcriptomics Reveal Metabolic Rather than Genetic Control of Divergent Antioxidant Metabolism in the Primary Root Elongation Zone of Water-Stressed Cotton and Maize

Under water stress, the primary root elongation zones of cotton and maize exhibit both conserved and divergent metabolic responses, including variations in sulfur and antioxidant metabolism. To explore the relative importance of metabolic and genetic controls of these responses for each species, and...
