Coordinated Regulation of Photosynthesis, Stomatal Traits, and Hormonal Dynamics in During Drought and Rehydration.

, a woody oilseed species endemic to China, often experiences growth constraints due to seasonal drought. This study investigates the coordinated regulation of photosynthetic traits, stomatal behavior, and hormone responses during drought-rehydration cycles in two cultivars with contrasting drought resistance: 'CL53' (tolerant) and 'CL40' (sensitive). Photosynthetic inhibition resulted from both stomatal and non-stomatal limitations, with cultivar-specific differences.

Transcriptome analysis reveals rootstock-driven effects on growth and photosynthesis in Camellia chekiangoleosa: A phenotypic and biochemical perspective.

Camellia chekiangoleosa is a significant oil-bearing tree species, known for its high oleic acid content and shorter reproductive cycle compared to traditional oil-tea plants. However, there are few studies on the molecular mechanism and compatibility of the interaction between oil-Camellia scion and rootstock, which poses certain challenges to the cultivation and promotion of oil-Camellia. This study systematically evaluates the effects of hetero-grafting Camellia chekiangoleosa scions onto divergent rootstocks (Camellia chekiangoleosa, Camellia oleifera, and Camellia yuhsienensis).

Transcriptomic Profiling of Buds Unveils Insights into Floral Initiation in Tea-Oil Tree ( 'changlin53').

Flowering is a key agronomic trait that directly influences the yield of the tea-oil tree (). Floral initiation, which precedes flower bud differentiation, represents a critical developmental stage affecting the flowering outcomes. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying floral initiation in remain poorly understood.
