Analysis of the molecular mechanism endogenous hormone regulating axillary bud development in Pinus yunnanensis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

P. yunnanensis, a distinctive economic tree species native to Yunnan Province in China, possesses axillary buds that serve as superior material for asexual propagation. However, under natural growth conditions, the differentiation of these axillary buds is notably scarce. In this study, we employed decapitation to stimulate the development of axillary buds in P. yunnanensis. Subsequently, we assessed the phytohormone levels in both axillary and apical buds, and conducted a comprehensive transcriptomic analysis complemented by RT-qPCR validation.

Results

We found that decapitation could effectively promote the releases of the axillary buds in P. yunnanensis. The levels of cytokinin, auxin, gibberellin and abscisic acid in axillary buds were higher than those in api
