Abstract Background Ramie fiber, extracted from vegetative organ stem bast, is one of the most important natural fibers. Understanding molecular mechanisms growth ramie and formation development bast fiber essential for improving yield quality fiber. However, only 418 e xpressed t ag s equences (ESTs) deposited in public databases are far sufficient to understand mechanisms. Thus, high-throughput transcriptome sequencing generate enormous transcript sequences purpose gene discovery,...
Abstract Previous studies suggested that Hd1 promoted heading under short-day conditions (SD) and delayed long-day (LD). However in this study, was demonstrated to consistently promote date Zhenshan 97 (ZS97) background by upregulating Ehd1 , Hd3a RFT1 expression both SD LD. While the high photoperiod sensitivity of observed Minghui 63 (MH63) background, with being suppressed LD but SD. Comparative analysis two sets near isogenic lines MH63 ZS97 backgrounds indicated alternative functions...
Abstract A quantitative trait locus (QTL) that affects heading date (HD) and the number of spikelets per panicle (SPP) was previously identified in a small region on chromosome 7 rice ( Oryza sativa L.). In order to further characterize QTL region, near isogenic lines (NILs) were quickly obtained by self‐crossing recombinant inbred line 189, which is heterozygous vicinity target region. The pleiotropic effects Ghd7.1 plant height (PH), SPP, HD, validated using an NIL‐F 2 population....
Ramie (Boehmeria nivea L. Gaud) fiber, one of the most important natural fibers, is extracted from stem bark. Continuous cropping main obstacle to ramie growth and a major cause reduced yields. Root-associated microbes play crucial roles in plant health. In this study, we investigated differences between microbial communities soil healthy continuously cropped plants, sought identify potential mechanisms whereby these could counteract problems posed by continuous cropping. Paired-end Illumina...
Flax has been cultivated for its oil and fiber thousands of years. However, it remains unclear how the modifications agronomic traits occurred on genetic level during flax cultivation. In this study, we conducted genome-wide variation analyses multiple accessions oil-use, fiber-use, landraces, pale to identify genomic variations Our findings indicate that, domestication, genes relevant flowering, dehiscence, production, plant architecture were preferentially selected. Furthermore, regardless...
Ramie fiber extracted from stem bark is one of the most important natural fibers. Drought a main environment stress which severely inhibits growth ramie and leads to decrease yield. The drought stress-regulatory mechanism poorly understood.Using Illumina sequencing, approximately 4.8 4.7 million (M) 21-nt cDNA tags were respectively sequenced in libraries derived drought-stressed (DS) control under well water condition (CO). generated two aligned with transcriptome annotate their function...
Genome-wide association studies are a powerful approach for identifying genes related to complex traits in organisms, but limited by the requirement reference genome sequence of species under study. To circumvent this problem, we propose transcriptome-referenced study (TRAS) that utilizes transcriptome generated single-molecule long-read sequencing as score population variation at both transcript and expression levels. Candidate transcripts identified when scores associated with trait their...
Abstract Ramie ( Boehmeria nivea L. Gaud) suffers from long-term continuous cropping. Here, using Illumina high-throughput sequencing technology, we aimed to identify bacteria and fungi associated with cropping in ramie fields Yuanjiang, Xianning, Sichuan, Jiangxi. The rarefaction results showed that Jiangxi had significantly lower bacterial α-diversity than of the other areas. Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria were dominant phyla, Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, Zygomycota fungal phyla....
Abstract The garlic bulb comprises several cloves, the swelling growth of which is significantly hindered by accumulation viruses. Herein, we describe a single-cell transcriptomic atlas cloves with virus accumulation, comprised 19 681 high-quality cells representing 11 distinct cell clusters. Cells two clusters, clusters 7 (C7) and (C11), were inferred to be from meristem. Cell trajectory analysis suggested differentiation clove start meristem cells, along pseudo-time paths. Investigation...
Ramie (Boehmeria nivea L. Gaud) is one of the most important natural fiber crops, and improvement yield quality main goal in efforts to breed superior cultivars. However, aimed at enhancing understanding ramie genetics developing more effective breeding strategies have been hampered by shortage simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. In our previous study, we had assembled de novo 43,990 expressed tags (ESTs). present searched these previously ESTs for SSRs identified 1,685 (3.83%) containing...
Drought is the main environmental factor impairing hemp growth and yield. In order to decipher molecular responses of drought stress, transcriptome changes drought-stressed (DS1 DS2), compared well-watered control (CK1 CK2), were studied with RNA-Seq technology. generated 9.83, 11.30, 11.66, 11.31 M clean reads in CK1, CK2, DS1, DS2 libraries, respectively. A total 1292 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), including 409 (31.66%) upregulated 883 (68.34%) downregulated genes, identified. The...
Ramie (Boehmeria nivea) is an economically important natural fiber-producing crop that has been cultivated for thousands of years in China; however, the evolution this remains largely unknown. Here, we report a ramie domestication analysis based on genome assembly and resequencing wild accessions. Two chromosome-level genomes representing were assembled de novo. Numerous structural variations between two assemblies, together with genetic from population resequencing, constituted...
Garlic is an entirely sterile crop with important value as a vegetable, condiment, and medicine. However, the evolutionary history of garlic remains largely unknown.Here we report comprehensive map genomic variation, consisting amazingly 129.4 million variations. Evolutionary analysis indicates that population diverged at least 100,000 years ago, two groups cultivated in China were domesticated from independent routes. Consequently, 15.0 17.5% genes underwent expression change groups,...
Plentiful bast fiber, a high crude protein content, and vigorous vegetative growth make ramie popular fiber forage crop. Here, we report the draft genome of ramie, along with genomic comparison evolutionary analysis. The contained sequence approximately 335.6 Mb 42,463 predicted genes. A high-density genetic map 4,338 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) was developed used to anchor sequence, thus, creating an integrated physical containing 58.2-Mb 4,304 molecular markers. identified 1,075...
