Metabolomic and transcriptomic basis of photoperiodic response regulation in broomcorn millet (Panicum miliaceum L.).

ABSTRACT: To elucidate the mechanisms underlying photoperiodic responses, we investigated the genomic and metabolomic responses of two broomcorn millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) genotypes. For this purpose, light-insensitive (D32) and light-sensitive (M51) genotypes were exposed to a 16 h photoperiod (long-day (LD) conditions) and an 8 h photoperiod (short-day (SD) conditions), and various transcriptomic and metabolomic changes were investigated. A total of 1664, 2564, 13,017, and 15548 DEGs were identified in the SD-D, LD-D, LD-M, and SD-M groups, respectively. Furthermore, 112 common DEGs were identified as well. Interestingly, most DEGs in the different groups were associated with photosynthesis and phenylpropanoid and carotenoid biosynthesis. In addition, 822 metabolites were identified under diffe
