Integrating metabolomics and high-throughput phenotyping to elucidate metabolic and phenotypic responses to early-season drought stress in Nordic spring wheat

This study demonstrates the effectiveness of combining metabolomics with high-throughput phenotyping to dissect plant stress responses. By identifying key metabolic pathways and potential biomarkers for drought tolerance, our findings provide a valuable foundation for breeding climate-resilient wheat varieties. Moreover, this integrative approach enhances our understanding of plant adaptation to abiotic stress, contributing to future efforts in sustainable agriculture and food security.
