Integrated Transcriptome and Metabolome Analyses Reveal Bamboo Culm Color Formation Mechanisms Involved in Anthocyanin Biosynthetic in Phyllostachys nigra

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 25(3), P. 1738 - 1738

Published: Feb. 1, 2024

Phyllostachys nigra has green young culms (S1) and purple black mature (S4). Anthocyanins are the principal pigment responsible for color presentation in ornamental plants. We employ a multi-omics approach to investigate regulatory mechanisms of anthocyanins Ph. nigra. Firstly, we found that pigments culm accumulated only one four layers cells below epidermis. The levels total flavonoids gradually increased during process bamboo formation. Metabolomics analysis indicated predominant metabolites observed were petunidin 3-O-glucoside malvidin O-hexoside, exhibiting significant increase up 9.36-fold 13.23-fold, respectively, pigmentation culm. Transcriptomics sequencing revealed genes involved flavonoid biosynthesis, phenylpropanoid starch sucrose metabolism pathways significantly enriched, leading A 62 differentially expressed structural associated with anthocyanin synthesis identified. Notably, PnANS2, PnUFGT2, PnCHI2, PnCHS1 showed correlations metabolites. Additionally, certain transcription factors such as PnMYB6 PnMYB1 positive or negative anthocyanins. With accumulation sucrose, expression is enhanced, which turn triggers biosynthesis genes. Based on these findings, propose key primarily regulate pathway contribute anthocyanin, ultimately resulting purple-black coloration

Characterization of HSP70 family in watermelon (Citrullus lanatus): identification, structure, evolution, and potential function in response to ABA, cold and drought stress

Frontiers in Genetics, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 14

Published: May 31, 2023

Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) as a crop with important economic value, is widely cultivated around the world. The heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) family in plant indispensable under stress conditions. However, no comprehensive analysis of watermelon HSP70 reported to date. In this study, 12 ClHSP70 genes were identified from watermelon, which unevenly located 7 out 11 chromosomes and divided into three subfamilies. proteins predicted be localized primarily cytoplasm, chloroplast, endoplasmic reticulum. Two pairs segmental repeats 1 pair tandem existed genes, ClHSP70s underwent strong purification selection. There many abscisic acid (ABA) abiotic response elements promoters. Additionally, transcriptional levels roots, stems, true leaves, cotyledons also analyzed. Some strongly induced by ABA. Furthermore, had different degrees drought cold stress. above data indicate that may participated growth development, signal transduction response, laying foundation for further function biological processes.

Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the C2H2-zinc finger transcription factor gene family and screening of candidate genes involved in floral development in Coptis teeta Wall. (Ranunculaceae)

Frontiers in Genetics, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 15

Published: Jan. 22, 2024

Background: C2H2-zinc finger transcription factors comprise one of the largest and most diverse gene superfamilies are involved in transcriptional regulation flowering. Although a large number C2H2 zinc-finger proteins (C2H2-ZFPs) have been well characterized model plant species, little is known about their expression function Coptis teeta . C. displays two floral phenotypes (herkogamy phenotypes). It has proposed that factor family may play crucial role formation development herkogamy observed As such, we performed genome-wide analysis C2H2-ZFP Results: The complexity diversity zinc were established by evaluation physicochemical properties, phylogenetic relationships, exon-intron structure, conserved motifs. Chromosome localization showed 95 members genes unevenly distributed across nine chromosomes , these replicated tandem segmentally had undergone purifying selection. Analysis cis-acting regulatory elements revealed possible involvement phytohormones. Transcriptome data was then used to compare levels during growth (F-type M-type). These demonstrate groups A B, 23 higher F-type flowers, while 15 expressions M-type flowers. qRT-PCR further relative highly consistent with transcriptome data. Conclusion: provide solid basis for in-depth studies this species preliminary information on which base research into ZFPs

Plants are considered as sessile organisms that cannot avoid adverse environmental conditions and developed complex signaling networks composed of different pathways. WRKY transcription factors (TFs) key regulators various plant processes, including the responses to abiotic stresses. TFs one largest family transcriptional found in plants. act molecular switches modulate expression stress-responsive genes. Stress-induced modulated by a regulatory network maintain proper balance between growth, development, stress responses. typically interact with W-box [TGACC(A/T)] target gene promoter activate downstream These associated regulation physiological processes. Overexpression genes faces paradox having significant effects. overexpression-associated undesirable phenotypes must be identified removed for development.
