Characterization of the Regulatory Network under Waterlogging Stress in Soybean Roots via Transcriptome Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Flooding stress caused by climate change is a serious threat to crop productivity. To enhance our understanding of flooding stress in soybean, we analyzed the transcriptome of the roots of soybean plants after waterlogging treatment for 10 days at the V2 growth stage. Through RNA sequencing analysis, 870 upregulated and 1129 downregulated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified and characterized using Gene Ontology (GO) and MapMan software (version 3.6.0RC1). In the functional classification analysis, "alcohol biosynthetic process" was the most significantly enriched GO term in downregulated DEGs, and phytohormone-related genes such as ABA, cytokinin, and gibberellin were upregulated. Among the transcription factors (TFs) in DEGs, AP2/ERFs were the most abundant. Furthermore,
