Implication

Physiological assessments show that varying root-zone temperature influences biomass and bioactive compound production in Schisandra chinensis, indicating critical adaptation to climate change.

Key Points

Elevated root-zone temperature boosts biomass and photosynthetic rates, but different organs respond variably.
At 20 °C, stem and leaf growth increased while root development was reduced, highlighting organ-specific responses.
Metabolomic profiling revealed temperature-dependent synthesis of key bioactive compounds like schisanhenol and schisandrol A.
The findings suggest that optimizing root-zone temperature can enhance the medicinal qualities of Schisandra chinensis, with implications for crop management.
