Proteomic Analysis of Two Maize Inbreds Under Drought and Well-Watered Conditions

A comparative proteomic analysis of two maize inbred lines, B73 and EA2024, with contrasting stalk-lodging resistance and drought tolerance. The dataset, published by Rocío C. Arce on figshare in 2026, identifies 481 differentially accumulated proteins between the inbreds across well-watered and drought conditions. It includes 100 proteins with a convergent response and 381 with a divergent response to drought.

Use Cases

• Identify candidate proteins for drought tolerance based on differential accumulation patterns.
• Compare proteomic reprogramming strategies between stress-sensitive and stress-resistant genotypes.
• Investigate the potential trade-off between stalk-lodging resistance and drought tolerance suggested by the proteomic profiles.

Strengths

• Identifies 481 differentially accumulated proteins between two inbred lines.
• Provides functional characterization for proteins with convergent and divergent drought responses.
• Dataset is openly available under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Limitations

• Row count and specific column-level documentation are unknown.
• The dataset is small at 48.8 KB, indicating limited scope.
• Data freshness should be verified as the last update is listed as 2026-05-05.
