Transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses of root responses in Indigofera stachyodes seedlings under drought stress: a medicinal plant native to karst mountainous regions
These results elucidate that the roots of <i>I. stachyodes</i> seedlings can resist drought stress and adapt to drought environments by regulating the expression of genes and the synthesis of metabolites in the flavonoid and phenylpropanoid metabolic pathways, providing a foundation to facilitate the domestication of wild <i>I. stachyodes.</i>
