Primary root response to combined drought and heat stress is regulated via salicylic acid metabolism in maize

Abstract The primary root is the first organ to perceive the stress signals for abiotic stress. In this study, maize plants subjected to drought, heat and combined stresses displayed a significantly reduced primary root length. Metabolic and transcriptional analyses detected 72 and 5,469 differentia...
