Genome-wide characterization of SDR gene family and its potential role in seed dormancy of Brassica napus L. BMC PLANT BIOLOGY 2024; 24:21. [PMID: 38166550 PMCID: PMC10759766 DOI: 10.1186/s12870-023-04700-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/04/2024]
Abstract
Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) with short or no dormancy period are easy to germinate before harvest (pre-harvest sprouting, PHS). PHS has seriously decreased seed weight and oil content in B. napus. Short-chain dehydrogenase/ reductase (SDR) genes have been found to related to seed dormancy by promoting ABA biosynthesis in rice and Arabidopsis. In order to clarify whether SDR genes are the key factor of seed dormancy in B. napus, homology sequence blast, protein physicochemical properties, conserved motif, gene structure, cis-acting element, gene expression and variation analysis were conducted in present study. Results shown that 142 BnaSDR genes, unevenly distributed on 19 chromosomes, have been identified in B. napus genome. Among them, four BnaSDR gene clusters present in chromosome A04、A05、C03、C04 were also identified. These 142 BnaSDR genes were divided into four subfamilies on phylogenetic tree. Members of the same subgroup have similar protein characters, conserved motifs, gene structure, cis-acting elements and tissue expression profiles. Specially, the expression levels of genes in subgroup A, B and C were gradually decreased, but increased in subgroup D with the development of seeds. Among seven higher expressed genes in group D, six BnaSDR genes were significantly higher expressed in weak dormancy line than that in nondormancy line. And the significant effects of BnaC01T0313900ZS and BnaC03T0300500ZS variation on seed dormancy were also demonstrated in present study. These findings provide a key information for investigating the function of BnaSDRs on seed dormancy in B. napus.

Comprehensive Analysis of Differentially Expressed Genes and Epigenetic Modification-Related Expression Variation Induced by Saline Stress at Seedling Stage in Fiber and Oil Flax, Linum usitatissimum L. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 11:2053. [PMID: 35956530 PMCID: PMC9370232 DOI: 10.3390/plants11152053] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2022] [Revised: 07/23/2022] [Accepted: 08/03/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The ability of different germplasm to adapt to a saline-alkali environment is critical to learning about the tolerance mechanism of saline-alkali stress in plants. Flax is an important oil and fiber crop in many countries. However, its molecular tolerance mechanism under saline stress is still not clear. In this study, we studied morphological, physiological characteristics, and gene expression variation in the root and leaf in oil and fiber flax types under saline stress, respectively. Abundant differentially expressed genes (DEGs) induced by saline stress, tissue/organ specificity, and different genotypes involved in plant hormones synthesis and metabolism and transcription factors and epigenetic modifications were detected. The present report provides useful information about the mechanism of flax response to saline stress and could lead to the future elucidation of the specific functions of these genes and help to breed suitable flax varieties for saline/alkaline soil conditions.
