Acyl-CoA-binding protein (ACBP) genes involvement in response to abiotic stress and exogenous hormone application in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.).

Background: Acyl-CoA-Binding proteins (ACBPs) function as coenzyme A transporters and play important roles in regulating plant growth and development in response to abiotic stress and phytohormones, as well as in membrane repair. To date, the ACBP family has not been a comprehensively characterized in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.).

Metabolomic Analysis of Key Metabolites and Their Pathways Revealed the Response of Alfalfa ( L.) Root Exudates to -GR24 under Drought Stress.

The -GR24, an artificial analog of strigolactone, is known for its roles in inhibiting branches, and previous studies have reported that it has a certain mechanism to relieve abiotic stress, but the underlying metabolic mechanisms of mitigation for drought-induced remain unclear. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to identify associated metabolic pathways that are regulated by -GR24 in alfalfa ( L.) and to determine the metabolic mechanisms of -GR24 that are involved in drought-induced root exudate.
