Utilizing physiologies, transcriptomics, and metabolomics to unravel key genes and metabolites of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bge. seedlings in response to drought stress by Yu Zhang, Hong Zhang, Yuru Zhang, Di Wang, Xue Meng, Juan Chen

“…Here, we studied the effects of drought stress on the different parts of S. miltiorrhiza seedlings through physiological, transcriptomic, and metabolomics analyses, and identified key genes and metabolites related to drought tolerance. Physiological analysis showed that drought stress increased the accumulation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), enhanced the activity of peroxidase (POD), decreased the activity of catalase (CAT) and the contents of chlorophyll b and total chlorophyll, reduced the degree of photosynthesis, enhanced oxidative damage in S. miltiorrhiza seedlings, and inhibited the growth of S. miltiorrhiza plants. …”
