Physiological responses and transcriptomic changes reveal the mechanisms underlying adaptation of Stylosanthes guianensis to phosphorus deficiency

Abstract Background Phosphorus (P) is an essential macronutrient for plant growth that participates in a series of biological processes. Thus, P deficiency limits crop growth and yield. Although Stylosanthes guianensis (stylo) is an important tropical legume that displays adaptation to low phosphate...
