The dirigent protein MsDIR6 functions in drought tolerance and modulates reactive oxygen species scavenging and secondary metabolite biosynthesis in alfalfa.
Novel insights are offered into alfalfa's drought tolerance mechanisms and MsDIR6 is identified as a promising genetic resource for molecular breeding strategies to improve this vital forage crop.
