Antioxidant Metabolism Underlies Different Metabolic Strategies for Primary Root Growth Maintenance under Water Stress in Cotton and Maize

The divergence of metabolic responses to water stress in the elongation zone of cotton and maize primary roots was investigated by establishing water-deficit conditions that generated steady root elongation at equivalent tissue water potentials. In water-stressed cotton roots, cell elongation was ma...
