Impact of Phenolics on Drought Stress and Expression of Phenylpropanoid Pathway Genes

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Plant Phenolics in Abiotic Stress Management

Abstract

Water shortage in plant is the major environmental stress affecting plant productivity. In crops, losses in productivity induced by drought are expected to outweigh losses from all other sources, owing to both the intensity and time period of the stress. The buildup of phenolic compounds is critical for plants to resist the harmful effects of drought stress. Transcriptomic and metabolomic investigations demonstrated augmentation and stimulation in the manufacture and accumulation of flavonoids in plants, as well as improved drought tolerance. Various researchers have detected an increase in total phenolic contents and associated chemicals with drought stress; yet, it has also been confirmed that drought stress reduces plant biomass. The key factor leading to variance in total phenolic content of plants during drought stress has been identified as genotype. Drought stress can also change the biosynthetic cycles of flavonoid and phenolic acid (which protect plants with their antioxidant properties) pathway, resulting in greater increase of these chemicals, which cause negative impacts. Flavonoid accumulation in the cytoplasm may effectively detoxify damaging H2O2 molecules produced by drought stress, and flavonoids are oxidized with the help of reconversion by ascorbic acid mediation and form primary metabolites. The fundamental cause of drought-induced phenolic compound concentration is the modification and control to the expression of the gene and production of important enzymes for phenylpropanoid biosynthetic pathway, which cause the enhancement of phenolic compound production.
