Genes and pathways correlated with heat stress responses and heat tolerance in maize kernels.

ABSTRACT: Global warming leads to frequent extreme weather, especially the extreme heat events, which threating the safety of maize production. Here we selected a pair of maize inbred lines, PF5411-1 and LH150, with significant differences in heat tolerance at kernel development stage. The two maize inbred lines were treated with heat stress at kernel development stage. Compared with the control groups, transcriptomic analysis identified 770 common up- and down-regulated genes between PF5411-1 and LH150 under heat stress conditions, and 41 putative TFs were predicted. Based on the interaction term of the two-factorial design, we also identified 6,744 differentially regulated genes between LH150 and PF5411-1, 111 common up-regulated and 141 common down-regulated genes were overlapped with the differe
