Exogenous Myo-Inositol Enhances Drought Tolerance in Potato by Modulating Jasmonic Acid Signaling and Flavonoid Antioxidant Pathways

Drought is the major abiotic stress restricting potato seedling growth and tuber yield formation. Exogenous myo-inositol (MI) has been reported to alleviate stress effects in various crops. However, the optimal foliar MI concentration for potato and its underlying transcriptional...

Multi-Omics-Identified StAPR3 Enhances Potato Cd Tolerance and Tuber Quality via Sulfur Metabolism and Glutathione Redox Homeostasis

Abstract Cadmium (Cd) in agricultural soils inhibits potato growth, disrupts tuber development, and causes Cd accumulation in edible tubers, thereby threatening food safety. Here, we determined the EC50 of Cd in potatoes, which induced oxidative stress and chloroplast damage. Tra...
