The Comparatively Proteomic Analysis in Response to Cold Stress in Cassava Plantlets.

ABSTRACT: Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a tropical root crop and sensitive to low temperature. However, it is poorly to know how cassava can modify its metabolism and growth to adapt to cold stress. An investigation aimed at a better understanding of cold-tolerant mechanism of cassava plantlets was carried out with the approaches of physiology and proteomics in the present study. The principal component analysis of seven physiological characteristics showed that electrolyte leakage (EL), chlorophyll content, and malondialdehyde (MDA) may be the most important physiological indexes for determining cold-resistant abilities of cassava. The genome-wide proteomic analysis showed that 20 differential proteins had the same patterns in the apical expanded leaves of cassava SC8 and Col1046. Th
