Melatonin Mitigates Water Deficit Stress in <i>Cenchrus alopecuroides</i> (L.) Thunb through Up-Regulating Gene Expression Related to the Photosynthetic Rate, Flavonoid Synthesis, and the Assimilatory Sulfate Reduction Pathway

Melatonin can improve plant adaptability to water deficit stress by regulating the biosynthesis of flavonoids and improving the reactive oxygen species-scavenging enzyme system. However, it remains unclear whether melatonin mitigates the effects and causes of water deficit stress in <i>Cenchru...
