Identification of core genes involved in the response of Apocynum venetum to salt stress based on transcriptome sequencing and WGCNA.

ABSTRACT: Apocynum venetum L. belongs to the Apocynaceae family and is a plant that is highly resistant to stress. It is important in the fields of ecology, feeding, industry and medicine. The molecular mechanism underlying salt tolerance has not been elucidated. In this study, RNA-seq based transcriptome sequencing of A. venetum leaves after 0, 2, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h of treatment with 300 mM NaCl was performed. We conducted a comprehensive analysis of the transcriptome expression profiles of A. venetum under salt stress using the WGCNA method and identified red, black, and brown as the core modules regulating the salt tolerance of A. venetum. A co-expression regulatory network was constructed to identify the core genes in the module according to the correlations between genes. The genes TRINITY_DN10
