Color-dependent defense mechanisms of Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) against Spodoptera exigua: metabolomic and transcriptomic insights

Abstract Background Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) exhibits a diverse and complex response to various organisms and environmental factors. The Spodoptera exigua elicits varying levels of damage in different crops. Secondary metabolites in quinoa induce defense mechanisms against S. exigua and pl...
