If the hemoglobin level is less than 9 g/dL and evidence indicates persistent brisk hemolysis (hemoglobinuria), immediate blood transfusion is also indicated
Despite advances from experimental model systems, functional validation of these regulatory mechanisms in crop species remains limited, underscoring the need for translational research
