Integrated transcriptome and metabolome revealed the drought responsive metabolic pathways in Oriental Lily (Lilium L.).

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Lily is an essential ornamental flowering species worldwide. Drought stress is a major constraint affecting the morphology and physiology and lily leaves and flowers. Therefore, understanding the molecular mechanism underlying lily response to drought stress is important.

Method

Transcriptome and metabolome analysis were performed on Oriental Lily subjected to drought stress.

Result

Most transcription factors and metabolites yielded by the conjoint analysis displayed a downregulated expression pattern. Differential genes and metabolites mainly co-enriched in glycolic pathways related to sugars, such as galactose, and sucrose, glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, indicating that drought stress reduced the sugar metabolism level of Oriental Lily. Combined with tran
