A study integrates metabolomic, transcriptomic, and gene co-expression network analysis confirmed that the key to adaptation to drought by millet was to enhance lignin metabolism, promote the metabolism of fatty acids to be transformed into cutin and wax, and improve ascorbic acid circulation (Cui et al., 2023). These present studies emphasize the potential of metabolomics and proteomics in identifying biochemical markers and understanding the metabolic adjustments in plants under drought stress. Figure 2 Water-deficit and heat stress response network mediated by key miRNA-RNA modules in durum wheat (Adopted from Liu et al., 2020) Image caption: (a) Examples of key miRNA-mRNA modules involved in the stress response networks. miRNA or gene names highlighted in green represent up-regulation under water-deficit plus heat stress; miRNA or gene names highlighted in red represents up-regulation under water-deficit plus heat stress; (b) multiple-to-multiple regulatory connections between miRNAs (orange) and their targets (blue) (Adopted from Liu et al., 2020)
