Melatonin Mitigates the Impacts of Recurrent Water Deficit in Robusta Coffee Plants by Modulating Photosynthesis and Biomass Partitioning
Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) is a regulatory molecule with potential to increase plant tolerance to water stress by modulating stomatal function, redox balance, and photosynthetic efficiency. However, its physiological effects depend on dose, species, and stress intensity, and studies on Coffea canephora un...
