Abstract
Dehydration response element binding (DREB) proteins are vital for plant abiotic stress responses, but the understanding of DREBs in bamboo, an important sustainable non-timber forest product, is limited. Here we conducted a comprehensive genome-wide analysis of the DREB gene family in Moso bamboo, representing the most important running bamboo species in Asia. In total, 44 PeDREBs were identified, and information on their gene structures, protein motifs, phylogenetic relationships, and stress-related cis-regulatory elements (CREs) was provided. Based on the bioinformatical analysis, we further analyzed PeDREBs from the A5 group and found that four of five PeDREB transcripts were induced by salt, drought, and cold stresses, and their proteins could bind to stress-related CREs. Among these, PeDREB28 was selected as a promising candidate for further functional characterization. PeDREB28 is localized in nucleus, has transcriptional activation activity, and could bind to the DRE- and coupling element 1- (CE1) CREs. Overexpression of PeDREB28 in Arabidopsis and bamboo improved plant abiotic stress tolerance. Transcriptomic analysis showed that broad changes due to the overexpression of PeDREB28. Furthermore, 628 genes that may act as the direct PeDREB28 downstream genes were identified by combining DAP-seq and RNA-seq analysis. Moreover, we confirmed that PeDREB28 could bind to the promoter of pyrabactin-resistance-like gene (DlaPYL3), which is a homolog of abscisic acid receptor in Arabidopsis, and activates its expression. In summary, our study provides important insights into the DREB gene family in Moso bamboo, and contributes to their functional verification and genetic engineering applications in the future.

[PMID: 37570996 PMCID: PMC10421110 DOI: 10.3390/plants12152842] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2023] [Revised: 07/26/2023] [Accepted: 07/27/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023]
Abstract
Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) is one of the fastest growing plants. Gibberellin (GA) is a key phytohormone regulating growth, but there are few studies on the growth of Moso bamboo regulated by GA. The gibberellin 20 oxidase (GA20ox) gene family was targeted in this study. Chromosomal distribution and collinearity analysis identified 10 GA20ox genes evenly distributed on chromosomes, and the family genes were relatively conservative in evolution. The genetic relationship of GA20ox genes had been confirmed to be closest in different genera of plants in a phylogenetic and selective pressure analysis between Moso bamboo and rice. About 1/3 GA20ox genes experienced positive selective pressure with segmental duplication being the main driver of gene family expansion. Analysis of expression patterns revealed that only six PheGA20ox genes were expressed in different organs of shoot development and flowers, that there was redundancy in gene function. Underground organs were not the main site of GA synthesis in Moso bamboo, and floral organs are involved in the GA biosynthesis process. The auxin signaling factor PheARF47 was located upstream of PheGA20ox3 and PheGA20ox6 genes, where PheARF47 regulated PheGA20ox3 through cis-P box elements and cis-AuxRR elements, based on the result that promoter analysis combined with yeast one-hybrid and dual luciferase detection analysis identified. Overall, we identified the evolutionary pattern of PheGA20ox genes in Moso bamboo and the possible major synthesis sites of GA, screened for key genes in the crosstalk between auxin and GA, and laid the foundation for further exploration of the synergistic regulation of growth by GA and auxin in Moso bamboo.

Abstract
Woody bamboos are important resource of industrial fibres. Auxin signaling plays a key role in multiple plant developmental processes, as yet the role of auxin/indole acetic acid (Aux/IAA) in culm development of woody bamboos has not been previously characterized. Dendrocalamus sinicus Chia et J. L. Sun is the largest woody bamboo documented in the world. Here, we identified two alleles of DsIAA21 gene (sIAA21 and bIAA21) from the straight- and bent-culm variants of D. sinicus, respectively, and studied how the domains I, i, and II of DsIAA21 affect the gene transcriptional repression. The results showed that bIAA21 expression was rapidly induced by exogenous auxin in D. sinicus. In transgenic tobacco, sIAA21 and bIAA21 mutated in domains i, and II significantly regulated plant architecture and root development. Stem cross sections revealed that parenchyma cells were smaller in transgenic plants than that in wild type plants. Domain i mutation changed the leucine and proline at position 45 to proline and leucine (siaa21L45P and biaa21P45L) strongly repressed cell expansion and root elongation by reducing the gravitropic response. Substitution of isoleucine with valine in domain II of the full length DsIAA21 resulted in dwarf stature in transgenic tobacco plants. Furthermore, the DsIAA21 interacted with auxin response factor 5 (ARF5) in transgenic tobacco plants, suggesting that DsIAA21 might inhibit stem and root elongation via interacting with ARF5. Taken together, our data indicated that DsIAA21 was a negative regulator of plant development and suggested that amino acid differences in domain i of sIAA21 versus bIAA21 affected their response to auxin, and might play a key role in the formation of the bent culm variant in D. sinicus. Our results not only shed a light on the morphogenetic mechanism in D. sinicus, but also provided new insights into versatile function of Aux/IAAs in plants.

Multi-omics of Circular RNAs and Their Responses to Hormones in Moso Bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis). GENOMICS, PROTEOMICS & BIOINFORMATICS 2023; 21:866-885. [PMID: 36805531 PMCID: PMC10787125 DOI: 10.1016/j.gpb.2023.01.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2021] [Revised: 01/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/18/2023]
Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous non-coding RNAs with covalently closed structures, which have important functions in plants. However, their biogenesis, degradation, and function upon treatment with gibberellins (GAs) and auxins (1-naphthaleneacetic acid, NAA) remain unknown. Here, we systematically identified and characterized the expression patterns, evolutionary conservation, genomic features, and internal structures of circRNAs using RNase R-treated libraries from moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) seedlings. Moreover, we investigated the biogenesis of circRNAs dependent on both cis- and trans-regulation. We explored the function of circRNAs, including their roles in regulating microRNA (miRNA)-related genes and modulating the alternative splicing of their linear counterparts. Importantly, we developed a customized degradome sequencing approach to detect miRNA-mediated cleavage of circRNAs. Finally, we presented a comprehensive view of the participation of circRNAs in the regulation of hormone metabolism upon treatment of bamboo seedlings with GA and NAA. Collectively, our study provides insights into the biogenesis, function, and miRNA-mediated degradation of circRNAs in moso bamboo.

Abstract
Cytokinin is widely involved in the regulation of plant growth, but its pathway-related genes have not been reported in Moso bamboo. In this study, a total of 129 candidate sequences were identified by bioinformatic methods. These included 15 IPT family genes, 19 LOG family genes, 22 HK family genes, 11 HP family genes and 62 RR family genes. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the cytokinin pathway was closely related to rice, and evolutionary pattern analysis found that most of the genes have syntenic relationship with rice-related genes. The Moso bamboo cytokinin pathway was evolutionarily conservative and mainly underwent purifying selection, and that gene family expansion was mainly due to whole-gene duplication events. Analysis of transcriptome data revealed a tissue-specific expression pattern of Moso bamboo cytokinin family genes, with auxin and gibberellin response patterns. Analysis of co-expression patterns at the developmental stages of Moso bamboo shoots revealed the existence of a phytohormone co-expression pattern centered on cytokinin signaling genes. The auxin signaling factor PheARF52 was identified by yeast one-hybrid assay as regulating the PheRR3 gene through a P-box element in the PheRR3 promoter region. Auxin and cytokinin signaling crosstalk to regulate Moso bamboo growth. Overall, we systematically identified and analyzed key gene families of the cytokinin pathway in Moso bamboo and obtained key factors for auxin and cytokinin crosstalk, laying the foundation for the study of hormone regulation in Moso bamboo.

Abstract
Auxin polar transport is an important way for auxin to exercise its function, and auxin plays an irreplaceable role in the rapid growth of Moso bamboo. We identified and performed the structural analysis of PIN-FORMED auxin efflux carriers in Moso bamboo and obtained a total of 23 PhePIN genes from five gene subfamilies. We also performed chromosome localization and intra- and inter-species synthesis analysis. Phylogenetic analyses of 216 PIN genes showed that PIN genes are relatively conserved in the evolution of the Bambusoideae and have undergone intra-family segment replication in Moso bamboo. The PIN genes' transcriptional patterns showed that the PIN1 subfamily plays a major regulatory role. PIN genes and auxin biosynthesis maintain a high degree of consistency in spatial and temporal distribution. Phosphoproteomics analysis identified many phosphorylated protein kinases that respond to auxin regulation through autophosphorylation and phosphorylation of PIN proteins. The protein interaction network showed that there is a plant hormone interaction regulatory network with PIN protein as the core. We provide a comprehensive PIN protein analysis that complements the auxin regulatory pathway in Moso bamboo and paves the way for further auxin regulatory studies in bamboo.

Abstract
Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) can promote plant growth in various ways, allowing PGPB to replace chemical fertilizers to avoid environmental pollution. PGPB is also used for bioremediation and in plant pathogen control. The isolation and evaluation of PGPB are essential not only for practical applications, but also for basic research. Currently, the known PGPB strains are limited, and their functions are not fully understood. Therefore, the growth-promoting mechanism needs to be further explored and improved. The Bacillus paralicheniformis RP01 strain with beneficial growth-promoting activity was screened from the root surface of Brassica chinensis using a phosphate-solubilizing medium. RP01 inoculation significantly increased plant root length and brassinosteroid content and upregulated the expression of growth-related genes. Simultaneously, it increased the number of beneficial bacteria that promoted plant growth and reduced the number of detrimental bacteria. The genome annotation findings also revealed that RP01 possesses a variety of growth-promoting mechanisms and a tremendous growth-promoting potential. This study isolated a highly potential PGPB and elucidated its possible direct and indirect growth-promoting mechanisms. Our study results will help enrich the PGPB library and provide a reference for plant-microbe interactions.

Abstract
Xylogen-like arabinogalactan protein (XYLP) is an atypical lipid transport protein. In this study, 23 Phyllostachys edulis XYLPs were identified, and their proteins contain characteristic structures of AGP and nsLTP domain. All PeXYLPs can be divided into four clades, and their genes were unevenly distributed on 11 chromosome scaffolds. Collinear analysis revealed that segmental duplication was the main driver for PeXYLP family expansion. The cis-acting elements presented in the promoter are involved in various regulations of PeXYLPs expression. G.O. annotation revealed that PeXYLPs are mainly interested in lipid transport and synthesis and primarily function at the plasma membrane. Transcriptome analysis revealed that PeXYLPs were spatiotemporally expressed and displayed significant variability during various tissue development. Besides that, some PeXYLPs also respond to multiple phytohormones and abiotic stresses. By semi-quantitative RT-PCR, the response of some PeXYLPs to MeJA was confirmed, and the proteins were shown to localize to the plasma membrane mainly. WGCNA in defined regions of fast-growing bamboo shoots revealed that 5 PeXYLPs in 4 gene co-expression modules showed a positive module-trait relationship with three fast-growing regions. This systematic analysis of the PeXYLP family will provide a foundation for further insight into the functions of individual PeXYLP in a specific tissue or organ development, phytohormone perception, and stress responses in the future.

Abstract
Auxin plays a crucial regulatory role in higher plants, but systematic studies on the location of auxin local biosynthesis are rare in bamboo and other graminaceous plants. We studied moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis), which can grow up to 1 m/day and serves as a reference species for bamboo and other fast-growing species. We selected young tissues such as root tips, shoot tips, young culm sheaths, sheath blades, and internode divisions for local auxin biosynthesis site analysis. IAA immunofluorescence localization revealed that auxin was similarly distributed in different stages of 50-cm and 300-cm bamboo shoots. Shoot tips had the highest auxin content, and it may be the main site of auxin biosynthesis in the early stage of rapid growth. A total of 22 key genes in the YUCCA family for auxin biosynthesis were identified by genome-wide identification, and these had obvious tissue-specific and spatio-temporal expression patterns. In situ hybridization analysis revealed that the localization of YUCCA genes was highly consistent with the distribution of auxin. Six major auxin synthesis genes, PheYUC3-1, PheYUC6-1, PheYUC6-3, PheYUC9-1, PheYUC9-2, and PheYUC7-3, were obtained that may have regulatory roles in auxin accumulation during moso bamboo growth. Culm sheaths were found to serve as the main local sites of auxin biosynthesis and the auxin required for internode elongation may be achieved mainly by auxin transport.

Abstract
Crop production is a serious challenge to provide food for the 10 billion individuals forecasted to live across the globe in 2050. The scientists' emphasize establishing an equilibrium among diversity and quality of crops by enhancing yield to fulfill the increasing demand for food supply sustainably. The exploitation of genetic resources using genomics and metabolomics strategies can help generate resilient plants against stressors in the future. The innovation of the next-generation sequencing (NGS) strategies laid the foundation to unveil various plants' genetic potential and help us to understand the domestication process to unmask the genetic potential among wild-type plants to utilize for crop improvement. Nowadays, NGS is generating massive genomic resources using wild-type and domesticated plants grown under normal and harsh environments to explore the stress regulatory factors and determine the key metabolites. Improved food nutritional value is also the key to eradicating malnutrition problems around the globe, which could be attained by employing the knowledge gained through NGS and metabolomics to achieve suitability in crop yield. Advanced technologies can further enhance our understanding in defining the strategy to obtain a specific phenotype of a crop. Integration among bioinformatic tools and molecular techniques, such as marker-assisted, QTLs mapping, creation of reference genome, de novo genome assembly, pan- and/or super-pan-genomes, etc., will boost breeding programs. The current article provides sequential progress in NGS technologies, a broad application of NGS, enhancement of genetic manipulation resources, and understanding the crop response to stress by producing plant metabolites. The NGS and metabolomics utilization in generating stress-tolerant plants/crops without deteriorating a natural ecosystem is considered a sustainable way to improve agriculture production. This highlighted knowledge also provides useful research that explores the suitable resources for agriculture sustainability.

Abstract
The economically valuable Brassica species include the six related members of U's Triangle. Despite the agronomic and economic importance of these Brassicas, the impacts of evolution and relatively recent domestication events on the genetic landscape of seed development have not been comprehensively examined in these species. Here we present a 3D transcriptome atlas for the six species of U's Triangle, producing a unique resource that captures gene expression data for the major subcompartments of the seed, from the unfertilized ovule to the mature embryo and seed coat. This comprehensive dataset for seed development in tetraploid and ancestral diploid Brassicas provides new insights into evolutionary divergence and expression bias at the gene and subgenome levels during the domestication of these valued crop species. Comparisons of gene expression associated with regulatory networks and metabolic pathways operating in the embryo and seed coat during seed development reveal differences in storage reserve accumulation and fatty acid metabolism among the six Brassica species. This study illustrates the genetic underpinnings of seed traits and the selective pressures placed on seed production, providing an immense resource for continued investigation of Brassica polyploid biology, genomics and evolution.

Abstract
Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) is a fast-growing species with uneven growth and lignification from lower to upper segments within one internode. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a vital role in post-transcriptional regulation in plants. However, how miRNAs regulate fast growth in bamboo internodes is poorly understood. In this study, one moso bamboo internode was divided during early rapid growth into four segments called F4 (bottom) to F1 (upper) and these were then analysed for transcriptomes, miRNAs and degradomes. The F4 segment had a higher number of actively dividing cells as well as a higher content of auxin (IAA), cytokinin (CK) and gibberellin (GA) compared with the F1 segment. RNA-seq analysis showed DNA replication and cell division-associated genes highly expressed in F4 rather than in F1. In total, 63 miRNAs (DEMs) were identified as differentially expressed between F4 and F1. The degradome and the transcriptome indicated that many downstream transcription factors and hormonal responses genes were modulated by DEMs. Several miR-target interactions were further validated by tobacco co-infiltration. Our findings give new insights into miRNA-mediated regulatory pathways in bamboo, and will contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the molecular mechanisms governing rapid growth.

Abstract
Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis), a high-value bamboo used to produce food (young shoots), building, and industrial goods. To explore key candidate genes regulating signal transduction and metabolic processes during the initiation of stem elongation in moso bamboo, a transcriptome analysis of the shoots during three successive early elongation stages was performed. From cluster and differential expression analyses, 2984 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were selected for an enrichment analysis. The DEGs were significantly enriched in the plant hormone signal transduction, sugar and starch metabolism, and energy metabolism pathways. Consequently, the DEG expression patterns of these pathways were analyzed, and the plant endogenous hormone and carbon metabolite (including sucrose, total soluble sugar, and starch) contents for each growth stage, of the shoot, were determined. The cytokinin-signaling pathway was continuously active in the three successive elongation stages, in which several cytokinin-signaling genes played indispensable roles. Additionally, many key DEGs regulating sugar, starch metabolism, and energy conversion, which are actively involved in energy production and substrate synthesis during the continuous growth of the shoots, were found. In summary, our study lays a foundation for understanding the mechanisms of moso bamboo growth and provides useful gene resources for breeding through genetic engineering.

Abstract
This study demonstrates that brassinosteroid is essential for seedling and shoot growth in moso bamboo. The shoot of moso bamboo is known to grow extremely fast. The roles of phytohormones in such fast growth of bamboo shoot remain unclear. Here we reported that endogenous brassinosteroid (BR) is a major factor promoting bamboo shoot internode elongation. Reducing endogenous brassinosteroid level by its biosynthesis inhibitor propiconazole stunted shoot growth in seedling stage, whereas exogenous BR application promoted scale leaf elongation and the inclination of lamina joint of leaves and scale leaves. Genome-wide transcriptome analysis identified hundreds of genes whose expression levels are altered by BR and propiconazole in shoots and roots of bamboo seedling. The data show that BR regulates cell wall-related genes, hydrogen peroxide catabolic genes, and auxin-related genes. Our study demonstrates an essential role of BR in fast growth bamboo shoots and identifies a large number of BR-responsive genes in bamboo seedlings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The vegetative growth is an important stage for plants when they conduct photosynthesis, accumulate and collect all resources needed and prepare for reproduction stage. Bamboo is one of the fastest growing plant species. The rapid growth of Phyllostachys edulis results from the expansion of intercalary meristem at the basal part of nodes, which are differentiated from the apical meristem of rhizome lateral buds. However, little is known about the major signaling pathways and players involved during this rapid development stage of bamboo. To study this question, we adopted the high-throughput sequencing technology and compared the transcriptomes of Moso bamboo rhizome buds in germination stage and late development stage. RESULTS We found that the development of Moso bamboo rhizome lateral buds was coordinated by multiple pathways, including meristem development, sugar metabolism and phytohormone signaling. Phytohormones have fundamental impacts on the plant development. We found the evidence of several major hormones participating in the development of Moso bamboo rhizome lateral bud. Furthermore, we showed direct evidence that Gibberellic Acids (GA) signaling participated in the Moso bamboo stem elongation. CONCLUSION Significant changes occur in various signaling pathways during the development of rhizome lateral buds. It is crucial to understand how these changes are translated to Phyllostachys edulis fast growth. These results expand our knowledge on the Moso bamboo internodes fast growth and provide research basis for further study.

Abstract
PSBR1 is a moso bamboo gene negatively regulated by brassinosteroid, which encodes a mitochondrial localized protein. Overexpression of PSBR1 leads to growth inhibition in various growth progresses in Arabidopsis. The young shoot of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) is known as one of the fastest growing plant organs. The roles of phytohormones in the fast-growth of bamboo shoot are not fully understood. Brassinosteroids (BRs) are a group of growth-promoting steroid hormones that play important roles in cell elongation and division. While BR related genes are highly enriched in fast-growing internodes in moso bamboo, the functions of BR in the fast-growth process is not understood at the molecular level. Here, we identified a poaceae specific gene, PSBR1 (Poaceae specific and BR responsive gene 1) from the moso bamboo genome. PSBR1 was highly expressed in the stem and leaves of bamboo seedling, and the elongating nodes of fast-growing bamboo shoot. PSBR1's expression is increased by BR biosynthesis inhibitor propiconazole but decreased by BR treatment. PSBR1 encodes a novel protein that is localized to the mitochondria in tobacco and bamboo protoplast. The Arabidopsis transgenic plants overexpressing PSBR1 show growth inhibition in both vegetative and reproductive stages. This study suggests that PSBR1 is a BR regulated mitochondrial protein in bamboo, which inhibits plant growth when overexpressed in Arabidopsis.

Li Y, Lin B, Zhu T, Zhang H, Su J. The interactions of PhSPL17 and PhJAZ1 mediate the on- and off-year moso bamboo (Phyllostachys heterocycla) resistance to the Pantana phyllostachysae larval feeding. PEST MANAGEMENT SCIENCE 2020; 76:1588-1595. [PMID: 31713977 DOI: 10.1002/ps.5681] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2019] [Revised: 10/07/2019] [Accepted: 11/07/2019] [Indexed: 05/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The immunity of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys heterocycle) to insect defoliator outbreaks differs between on-years to off-years; however, the underlying genetic mechanisms remain unknown. In this study, the genetic relationships of functional genes conferring pest resistance were investigated. RESULTS PhJAZ1 (Phyllostachys heterocycla JASMONATE ZIM-domain protein 1) exhibited the highest enrichment and was expressed at higher levels in the leaves of on-year bamboo plants compared with off-year, whereas the expression of PhSPL17 (Phyllostachys heterocycla SQUAMOSA Promoter binding protein-Like 17) showed the reverse pattern. The expression pattern of PhJAZ1 differed in on- and off-year bamboo (i.e., decreasing in the off-year with no obvious change in the on-year) after feeding by Pantana phyllostachysae (lepidopteran caterpillar of moso bamboo). Due to the lack of a genetic transformation system, the model plant Arabidopsis was used for the investigation of the genetic relationships between PhJAZ1 and PhSPL17. Overexpression of the PhJAZ1 protein in Arabidopsis showed a negative impact on the survival ratio and weight of third-instar Helicoverpa armigera (Arabidopsis leaf-feeding lepidopteran caterpillar). Transcriptional suppression of PhJAZ1 by PhSPL17 was observed, which was able to reveal the reverse expression pattern of PhJAZ1 and PhSPL17. CONCLUSION Together, these results suggest that on- and off-years (leaf age) regulate the expression of PhSPL17, which negatively regulates the expression of PhJAZ1 to generate differential response to Jasmonate. This study is the first to detail the genetic connection between leaf age and Jasmonate response in moso bamboo and provides a foundation for further pest control via the genetic breeding of moso bamboo. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry.

Genome-Wide Characterization and Gene Expression Analyses of GATA Transcription Factors in Moso Bamboo ( Phyllostachys edulis). Int J Mol Sci 2019; 21:ijms21010014.

Abstract
Moso bamboo is well-known for its rapid-growth shoots and widespread rhizomes. However, the regulatory genes of these two processes are largely unexplored. GATA transcription factors regulate many developmental processes, but their roles in moso bamboo height control and rhizome development remains unexplored. Here, thirty-one bamboo GATA factors (PeGATAs) were identified, which are evolutionarily closer to rice than Arabidopsis, and their gene expression patterns were analyzed in bamboo development and phytohormone response with bioinformatics and molecular methods. Interestingly, PeGATAs could only be classified into three groups. Phytohormone responsive cis-elements were found in PeGATA promoters and the expression profiles showed that PeGATA genes might respond to gibberellin acid and abscisic acid but not to auxin at the transcriptional level. Furthermore, PeGATA genes have a tissue-specific expression pattern in bamboo rhizomes. Interestingly, most PeGATA genes were down-regulated during the rapid-growth of bamboo shoots. In addition, over-expressing one of the PeGATA genes, PeGATA26, significantly repressed the primary root length and plant height of transgenic Arabidopsis plants, which may be achieved by promoting the gibberellin acid turnover. Overall, our results provide insight into the function of GATA transcription factors in bamboo, and into genetic resources for engineering plant height.

Abstract
Auxin plays essential roles in plant normal growth and development. The auxin signaling pathway relies on the auxin gradient within tissues and cells, which is facilitated by both local auxin biosynthesis and polar auxin transport (PAT). The TRYPTOPHAN AMINOTRANSFERASE OF ARABIDOPSIS (TAA)/YUCCA (YUC) pathway is the most important and well-characterized pathway that plants deploy to produce auxin. YUCs function as flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMO) catalyzing the rate-limiting irreversible oxidative decarboxylation of indole-3-pyruvate acid (IPyA) to form indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). The spatiotemporal dynamic expression of different YUC gene members finely tunes the local auxin biosynthesis in plants, which contributes to plant development as well as environmental responses. In this review, the recent advances in the identification, evolution, molecular structures, and functions in plant development and stress response regarding the YUC gene family are addressed.

Abstract
Auxin/Indole-3-Acetic Acid (Aux/IAA) genes are involved in auxin signaling pathway and play an important role in plant growth and development. However, many studies focus on Aux/IAA gene families and much less known in Bletilla striata. In this study, a total of 27 Aux/IAA genes (BsIAA1-27) were cloned from the transcriptome of Bletilla striata. Based on a phylogenetic analysis of the Aux/IAA protein sequences from B. striata, Arabidopsis thaliana and Dendrobium officinale, the Aux/IAA genes of B. striata (BsIAAs) were categorized into 2 subfamilies and 9 groups. While BsIAAs were more closer to those of D. officinale compared to A. thaliana. EST-SSR marker mining test showed that 4 markers could be stably amplified with obvious polymorphisms among 4 landraces. Our results suggested that BsIAAs were involved in the process of tuber development and provided insights into functional roles of Aux/IAA genes in B. striata and other plants.

Abstract
Development of lateral buds on the underground rhizome in moso bamboo is essentially the early stage of the development of aboveground branching, which is regulated by Phosphatidyl-Ethanolamine Binding Protein (PEBP) family genes, but it is unknown whether the PEBP family genes are involved in the activation and development of lateral buds underground. By scanning the whole-genome sequence of moso bamboo, we identified 25 PhePEBP family genes and amplified their full-length open reading frames (ORFs). A sequence analysis revealed that they are composed of four exons and three introns, except for PheFT10, which contains six exons and five introns. PheFT10 underwent alternative splicing, resulting in at least four transcripts (PheFT10α, PheFT10β, PheFT10γ and PheFT10δ). Although PhePEBP genes are generally expressed at low levels and show dramatically organ-specific expressions, the transcription levels of most PhePEBP genes, including the transcripts of PheFT10, change with plant age. Together with the observation that the expression of PhePEBP family genes can be regulated by plant hormones and drought, our data suggest that PhePEBP family genes might be involved in the activation of lateral buds and seedling growth. Particularly, PheFT9, PheTFL2 and PheTFL8 may play vital roles during the activation of dormant buds based on the analysis of amino acid substitution and expression profile. These findings provide insights for in-depth exploration of the biological functions of the PhePEBP family genes in regulating the activation of dormant bud and the development of seedling in moso bamboo.

PLANT SCIENCE : AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL PLANT BIOLOGY 2019; 283:290-300.

Abstract
Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) is one of the fastest growing species with a maximum growth rate of 1 m/day. However, the regulator genes for this explosive growth phenomenon have not been functionally studied. Here, we found that Moso bamboo GSK3/shaggy-like kinase 1 (PeGSK1) acts as a negative regulator of cell growth. Over-expression of PeGSK1 in Arabidopsis showed significant growth arrest phenotypes, including dwarfism, small leaves, reduced cell length, and disturbed cell elongation of petiole. Furthermore, Overexpression of PeGSK1 fully inhibited the longer hypocotyl phenotype of Arabidopsis atgsk1 mutants. In addition, PeGSK1-overexpressing lines were resistant to exogenous BR treatment and PeGSK1 interacted with the brassinosteroid signal transduction key regulator BZR1. The BZR1-dependent cell growth genes were down-regulated in PeGSK1-overexpressing lines. These results indicated that PeGSK1 is functionally similar to AtGSK1 and inhibited cell growth via the brassinosteroid signaling pathway. Importantly, PeGSK1 also interacted with PeBZR1, and the expression pattern of PeGSK1 was negatively correlated with the internode elongation of bamboo, indicating that PeGSK1 is involved in the cell growth of bamboo. In summary, our results provide insight into the role of brassinosteroids in the rapid-growth of bamboo culms and identifying target genes for the genetic manipulation of plant height.

Abstract
Members of the plant-specific B3 transcription factor superfamily play important roles in various growth and developmental processes in plants. Even though there are many valuable studies on B3 genes in other species, little is known about the B3 superfamily in tobacco. We identified 114 B3 proteins from tobacco using comparative genome analysis. These proteins were classified into four subfamilies based on their phylogenetic relationships, and include the ARF, RAV, LAV, and REM subfamilies. The chromosomal locations, gene structures, conserved protein motifs, and sub-cellular localizations of the tobacco B3 proteins were analyzed. The patterns of exon-intron numbers and arrangement and the protein structures of the tobacco B3 proteins were in general agreement with their phylogenetic relationships. The expression patterns of 114 B3 genes revealed that many B3 genes show tissue-specific expression. The expression levels of B3 genes in axillary buds after topping showed that the REM genes are mainly up-regulated in response to topping, while the ARF genes are down-regulated after topping.

Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of brassinosteroid action-related genes during the shoot growth of moso bamboo. Mol Biol Rep 2019; 46:1909-1930.

Abstract
Brassinosteroids (BRs) are a group of plant steroid hormones that play crucial roles in a range of plant growth and development processes. BR action includes active BR formation by a complex biosynthesis process and driving BR biological function through signal transduction. Although the characterization of several BR action-related genes has been conducted in a few model plants, systematic information about these genes in bamboo is still lacking. We identified 64 genes related to BR action from the genome of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis), including twenty that participated in BR biosynthesis and forty-four involved in BR signal transduction. The characteristics of all these candidate genes were identified by bioinformatics methods, including the gene structures, basic physical and chemical properties of proteins, conserved domains and evolutionary relationships. Based on the transcriptome data, the candidate genes demonstrated different expression patterns, which were further validated by qRT-PCR using templates from bamboo shoots with different heights. Thirty-four positive and three negative co-expression modules were identified by 44 candidate genes in the newly emerging bamboo shoot. The gene expression patterns and co-expression modules of BR action-related genes in bamboo shoots indicated that they might function to promote bamboo growth through BR biosynthesis and signal transduction processes. This study provides the first step towards the cloning and functional dissection of the role of BR action-related genes in moso bamboo, which also presents an excellent opportunity for genetic engineering using the candidate genes to improve bamboo quantity and quality.

Abstract
Auxin is an important hormone in many plant developmental processes. In this study, the auxin/indole acetic acid (Aux/IAA) gene family was comprehensively identified using Dendrocalamus sinicus transcriptome data. A total of 26 Aux/IAA genes (DsIAA1-DsIAA26) were mined using four conserved Aux/IAA family motifs (PF02309). They encoded hydrophilic proteins, including one or two nuclear localisation signals. The D. sinicus Aux/IAA proteins were classified into two groups, including seven sister-gene pairs based on their phylogenetic relationships. A phylogenetic tree generated by aligning 108 predicted protein sequences of 26 DsIAAs, 43 PhIAAs (Phyllostachys heterocycla), 29 AtIAAs (Arabidopsis), 31 OsIAAs (Oryza sativa) and 22 PtIAAs (Populus) revealed nine major groups. Among them, four groups, including 96 IAA proteins of all five species, suggested that the genes originated before divergence of monocots and dicots. The expression profiling in different tissues showed that most of the DsIAAs preferentially expressed in leaves and shoots, suggesting their important roles in the development of leaves and shoots in D. sinicus. Continuously high expression of DsIAA3, DsIAA4, DsIAA15, and DsIAA20 may be important for regulating shoot development in D. sinicus. These results provide useful information for further research into the function of Aux/IAA genes in woody sympodial bamboos.

Abstract
Auxin plays crucial roles in multiple developmental processes, such as embryogenesis, organogenesis, cell determination and division, as well as tropic responses. These processes are finely coordinated by the auxin, which requires the polar distribution of auxin within tissues and cells. The intercellular directionality of auxin flow is closely related to the asymmetric subcellular location of PIN-FORMED (PIN) auxin efflux transporters. All PIN proteins have a conserved structure with a central hydrophilic loop domain, which harbors several phosphosites targeted by a set of protein kinases. The activities of PIN proteins are finely regulated by diverse endogenous and exogenous stimuli at multiple layers-including transcriptional and epigenetic levels, post-transcriptional modifications, subcellular trafficking, as well as PINs' recycling and turnover-to facilitate the developmental processes in an auxin gradient-dependent manner. Here, the recent advances in the structure, evolution, regulation and functions of PIN proteins in plants will be discussed. The information provided by this review will shed new light on the asymmetric auxin-distribution-dependent development processes mediated by PIN transporters in plants.

Abstract
Auxin plays a central role in many aspects of plant growth and development. The auxin/indole-3-acetic acid (Aux/IAA) and auxin response transcription factor (ARF) genes are key components of plant auxin signaling. However, little is known about the Aux/IAA and ARF gene families in moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis). In this paper, we first identified 35 putative PeIAAs and 24 PeARFs in the moso bamboo genome. These genes were clustered into two major groups (A and B) and four groups (I-IV), respectively, based on phylogenetic analysis. Next, analyses of evolutionary patterns and divergence demonstrated that both the PeIAAs and PeARFs experienced a large-scale duplication event around 15 million years ago (MYA). The divergence times of the two gene families were 31 MYA between moso bamboo and rice, and 46 MYA between moso bamboo and maize. Furthermore, the expression profiling of PeIAA and PeARF genes in various tissues and developmental stages revealed tissue-specific expression. qRT-PCR analysis confirmed the differential expression patterns of selected PeIAA and PeARF genes. And then a comprehensive expression analysis of these genes was also performed under exogenous hormone treatment by qRT-PCR. Many PeIAAs and PeARFs showed differential expression in response to IAA treatment. Subcellular localization results show that PeIAA8 is a nuclear localization protein. Most importantly, we demonstrate that single moso bamboo ARF can interact with multiple Aux/IAA proteins and vice versa. Collectively, the detailed analyses presented here will help in understanding the roles of the PeIAA and PeARF gene families and contribute to further research on their biological functions during development in moso bamboo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pollen tube elongation in the pistil is a key step for pollination success in plants, and auxins play an important role in this process. However, the function of auxins in pollen tube elongation in the pistil of rice under heat stress has seldom been previously reported. RESULTS Two rice genotypes differing in heat tolerance were subjected to heat stress of 40 °C for 2 h after flowering. A sharp decrease in spikelet fertility was found in the Nipponbare (NPB) and its mutant High temperature susceptible (HTS) under heat stress, but the stress-induced spikelet sterility was reversed by 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), especially the HTS. Under heat stress, the pollen tubes of NPB were visible in ovule, while those of HTS were invisible. However, we found the pollen tubes in ovule when sprayed with NAA. During this process, a significant increase in indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels was found in the pistil of heat-stressed NPB, while in heat-stressed HTS they were obviously decreased. Additionally, the peroxidase (POD) activity in pistil of NPB was significantly decreased by heat stress, whereas there was no difference between the heat-stressed and non-heat-stressed pistils of HTS. CONCLUSION It was concluded that the enhancement of heat tolerance in plants by NAA was achieved through the increase of the levels of auxins, which prevented the inhibition of pollen tube elongation in pistil, and the crosstalk between auxins and ROS, which might be involved in this process. In addition, POD might be a negative mediator in pollen tube elongation under heat stress due to its ability to scavenge ROS and degrade auxin.
