Comparative proteome and transcriptome analyses suggest the regulation of starch and sucrose metabolism and rubber biosynthesis pathways in the recovery of tapping panel dryness in rubber tree.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Tapping panel dryness (TPD) in rubber tree has become the most severe restricting factor of natural rubber production. To date, there is no effective measures to prevent and control TPD. Previous studies primarily focused on analyzing the molecular mechanism underlying TPD occurrence. However, there is no research on the molecular mechanism of TPD recovery.

Results

In this study, the TPD trees were recovered by treatment with TPD rehabilitation nutrient agents that could promote the recovery of latex flow on the tapping panel of TPD trees. The genes and proteins involved in TPD recovery were first identified by employing integrated transcriptomics and proteomics analyses. In total, 2029 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 951 differentially expressed protein
