Water deficit mechanisms in perennial shrubs Cerasus humilis leaves revealed by physiological and proteomic analyses

摘要

BackgroundDrought (Water deficit, WD) poses a serious threat to extensively economic losses of trees throughout the world. Chinese dwarf cherry (Cerasus humilis) is a good perennial plant for studying the physiological and sophisticated molecular network under WD. The aim of this study is to identify the effect of WD on C. humilis through physiological and global proteomics analysis and improve understanding of the WD resistance of plants.
