Transcriptomic and metabolomic profiling of melatonin treated soybean (Glycine max L.) under drought stress during grain filling period through regulation of secondary metabolite biosynthesis pathways.

There is a growing need to enhance the productivity of soybean (Glycine max L.) under severe drought conditions in order to improve global food security status. Melatonin, a ubiquitous hormone, could alleviate drought stress in various plants. Earlier, we demonstrated that exogenous melatonin treatm...
