Multi-omics analysis of hexaploid triticale that show molecular responses to salt stress during seed germination.

ABSTRACT: The development of a salt-tolerant hexaploid triticale cultivar offers an economical and efficient solution for utilizing marginal land. Understanding how hexaploid triticales respond to salt stress is essential if this goal is to be achieved. A genome-wide association study (GWAS), along with transcriptome and proteome analyses, were used in the present study to determine the molecular responses to salt stress in hexaploid triticale. In total, 81 marker-trait associations for 10 salt-tolerance traits were identified in 153 hexaploid triticale accessions, explaining 0.71% to 56.98% of the phenotypic variation, and 54 GWAS-associated genes were uncovered. A total of 67, 88, and 688 differential expression genes were co-expressed at both the transcriptomic and proteomic levels after 4, 12, a
