Exogenous melatonin alleviates drought stress in cotton by enhancing root cortical activity and metabolic adaptation
IntroductionThe root cortex plays a critical role in water uptake and metabolic activity, directly influencing root functionality. However, despite melatonin’s known role in plant stress tolerance, its mechanisms in modulating root cortical anatomy and metabolic adaptation under drought remain uncle...
