Transcriptome analysis reveals key regulatory networks and genes involved in the acquisition of cold stress memory in pepper seedlings.

ABSTRACT: Temperature is an important limiting factor in the counter-seasonal cultivation of pepper. Currently, there are no studies on transcriptomic analysis of 'cold stress memory' in pepper. In this study, in order to understand the mechanism of 'cold stress memory' in pepper (Capsicum annuum L.), seedlings were subjected to the following treatments: normal temperature treatment (P0), the first cold treatment for 3 days (P3), the recovery temperature treatment for 3 days (R3), and another cold treatment for 3 days (RP3). The results showed that P3 plants wilted the most, RP3 the second and R3 the least. Leaf reactive oxygen species (ROS) and electrolyte leakage were the most in P3, the second in RP3 and the least in R3. In addition, RP3 had the highest accumulation of zeaxanthin, violaxanthin an
