Adaptation of winged bean (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus (L.) DC.) to drought stress is mediated by root-tuber heat-shock proteins and specific metabolites

Winged bean (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus (L.) DC.) is an underexploited tropical legume whose tuberous-roots have 12–19% proteins. The species has excellent drought tolerance ability thus making it a prospective climate-smart future crop. However, the underlying defense mechanism(s) of the species a...
