Long-term drought stress has irreversible effects on soybean growth and reduces yield. Melatonin can alleviate the growth inhibition and plant damage resulting from drought stress. In this study, we investigated the effects of foliar melatonin application on the carbon and nitrogen metabolism of flowering stage soybeans during drought stress. Exogenous melatonin increased the activity of antioxidant enzymes during drought stress and decreased the production of reactive oxygen species and membrane lipid peroxidation. Melatonin also mitigated lower photosynthesis ability during drought stress, and regulated carbon and nitrogen assimilation and the endogenous hormone content. A total of 518 metabolites were detected using the UPLC-MS/MS metabolome detection platform. Drought stress reduced the accumulation of sugars, amino acids, and nucleotides, and increased the content of flavonoid. Melatonin increased amino acids and their derivatives (L-Asparagine Anhydrous, L-(-)-Tyrosine, L-phenylalanine, DL-Homocysteine, L-Methionine, 3,4-Dihydroxy, and DL-phenylalanine), flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), 6'-cis-cinnamoyl 8-epikingisidic acid, 5-aminocycloheptane-1,2,3-triol and 5,8,11,14-pentadecanoamide. Moreover, melatonin alleviated growth and yield declines caused by drought stress. Our study showed that exogenous melatonin improved the soybean antioxidant system and photosynthesis capacity, altering carbon and nitrogen metabolism, promoted the accumulation of amino acids and their derivatives, reducing plant growth inhibition and yield loss during drought stress. Therefore, the foliar application of melatonin has important potential in agriculture.

Hcrops_Setup.exe is the installation package of the model Hcrops. Hcrops simulates a hemp crop and has been developed, tested and calibrated using the SEMoLa language and simulation environment (Danuso and Rocca, 2014). It is a dynamic, mechanistic model, with daily time step, considering the hemp phenological development, the soil water balance and the irrigation requirement depending on a water stress factor. Moreover, it calculates the yield reduction due to water stress following the method of evapotranspiration of FAO (Doorembos and Kassam,1979) and the seed oil content (Oil) depending on the average daily maximum temperature of the flowering-maturity period (Atmax). A good relationship has been found in experimental data of this work, so the model implemented the relationship: Oil = 115 - 3.1 · Atmax Soil moisture is calculated as the balance among inputs (rainfall and irrigation) and outputs (actual evapotranspiration Eta and drainage). The soil is considered a single layer with the depth of the roots. Roots increase depth at a rate depending on temperature and till to the flowering stage. Root deepening could be limit also by a physical limit in the soil.
