Determination of Relevant Metabolites in Plants under Stress

In agriculture and horticulture, plant growth and production are affected by various factors, including environmental changes, pests and diseases, and abiotic stresses. These stressors may lead to reduced crop yields and poorer quality. Therefore, to create strategies for plant protection and management that work, it is necessary to comprehend and measure the effects of these stressors on plants.

Lifeasible has many years of research and service experience in the field of plant stress, and the determination of metabolites related to plant stress not only helps researchers to understand the physiological and ecological adaptive mechanisms of plants but also has a significant application value in the fields of agricultural production, biotechnology and ecological conservation.

Importance of the Determination of Relevant Metabolites under Stress Conditions

Plants under stress undergo significant changes in their metabolic pathways and produce a range of metabolites that can be used as biomarkers of plant stress. Some of the importance of measuring these metabolites are listed below.

• Assessment of stress effects. Measuring changes in metabolites in plants under stress conditions helps researchers understand the specific effects of stress on plant growth.
• Screening for resistant varieties. Measurement of plant metabolites under stress conditions allows the identification of plant varieties with more excellent stress resistance.
• Optimize cultivation management. Adjust the cultivation conditions according to the changes in metabolites to reduce the effects of stress.
• Research on stress mechanisms. Further in-depth study of the molecular mechanism of plant response to stress accelerates the progress of plant adversity research.
