Comparative transcriptome analysis reveals ABI3/VP1-WRKY25-STR1 regulatory module linking specialized metabolism with root system development and stress response in Rauvolfia serpentina

Key Points

• The regulatory module links specialized metabolism with stress response and root system development.
• Notably, key genes ABI3 and WRKY25 are involved in this regulatory interaction.
• Comparative transcriptome analysis shows significant gene expression changes under stress conditions.
• Understanding this module may enhance crop resilience and adaptation strategies.
