Water deficit is one of the main challenges for apple (Malus × domestica) growth and productivity. Breeding drought-tolerant cultivars depends on a thorough understanding drought responses trees. Here, we identified zinc-finger protein B-BOX 7/CONSTANS-LIKE 9 (MdBBX7/MdCOL9), which plays positive role in tolerance. The overexpression MdBBX7 enhanced tolerance, whereas knocking down expression reduced it. Chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq) analysis cis-element MdBBX7, CCTTG,...
Abstract DNA-binding one zinc-finger (Dof) proteins constitute a family of transcription factors with highly conserved Dof domain that contains C2C2 motif. Although several studies have demonstrated are involved in multiple plant processes, including development and stress resistance, the functions these drought resistance largely unknown. Here, we report identification MdDof54 gene from apple document its positive roles resistance. After long-term stress, compared nontransgenic plants, RNAi...
Abstract The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) is involved in various plant processes. In response to drought stress, plants quickly accumulate ABA, but the regulatory mechanism of ABA accumulation largely unknown, especially woody plants. this study, we report that MdMYB88 and MdMYB124 are myeloblastosis (MYB) transcription factors critical for apple trees (Malus x domestica) following drought, regulation negatively controlled by ABA. positively regulate leaf water transpiration,...
Leaf senescence is the final stage of leaf development and affected by various exogenous endogenous factors. Transcriptional regulation essential for senescence, however, underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unclear. In this study, we report that transcription factor MYB59, which was predominantly expressed in early senescent rosette leaves, negatively regulates Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). RNA sequencing revealed a large number differentially genes involved several...
ABSTRACT Transcriptional regulation is essential for balancing multiple metabolic pathways that influence oil accumulation in seeds. Thus far, the transcriptional regulatory mechanisms govern seed remain largely unknown. Here, we identified network composed of MADS‐box transcription factors SEEDSTICK (STK) and SEPALLATA3 (SEP3), which bridges several key genes to regulate We found STK, highly expressed developing embryo, positively regulates Arabidopsis ( thaliana ). Furthermore, discovered...
Drought limits apple yield and fruit quality. However, the molecular mechanism of in response to drought is not well known. Here, we report a Cys2/His2 (C2H2)-type zinc-finger protein, MdZAT5, that positively regulates tolerance by regulating drought-responsive RNAs microRNAs (miRNAs). DNA affinity purification sequencing yeast-one hybrid analysis identified binding motifs T/ACACT/AC/A/G. Chromatin immunoprecipitation quantitative polymerase chain reaction (ChIP-qPCR) electrophoretic...
As a precursor of aromatic compounds, fatty acids play important roles in apple fruit quality; however, the genetic and molecular basis underlying acid synthesis metabolism is largely unknown. In this study, we conducted genome-wide association study (GWAS) seven using genomic data 149 Malus accessions identified 232 significant signals (-log10P>5) associated with 99 genes from GWAS four across 2 years. Among these, signal linoleic was transcriptional regulator SUPERMAN-like (SUP)...
4-coumaric acid: coenzyme A ligase (4CL) gene is one of the key genes involved in regulation lignin metabolism and synthesis flavonoid other secondary metabolites plant, while synthesized polymerized deposited cell walls leads to thickening some parenchyma cells formation stone cells. To better understand variety quantity 4CL Pyrus bretschneideri Rehd., we used amino acid cDNA databases Rehd. genome screen family, analyzed their classification, evolutionary relationships, physical location,...
