Effects of drought stress on growth, physiology and bioactive compound accumulation in licorice (Glycyrrhiza spp.): a meta-analysis-based integrated evaluation
Introduction Drought stress is a major environmental factor affecting the growth, physiological processes, and secondary metabolism of licorice (Glycyrrhiza spp.). However, the integrated responses of licorice to drought stress remain unclear. Methods This meta-analysis synthesized evidence from multiple studies to eva...
