H₂S Regulation of Metabolism in Cucumber in Response to Salt-Stress Through Transcriptome and Proteome Analysis.

ABSTRACT: In a previous study, we found that H₂S alleviates salinity stress in cucumber by maintaining the Na⁺/K⁺ balance and by regulating H₂S metabolism and the oxidative stress response. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms behind H₂S-regulated salt-stress tolerance in cucumber. Here, an integrated transcriptomic and proteomic analysis based on RNA-seq and 2-DE was used to investigate the global mechanism underlying H₂S-regulated salt-stress tolerance. In total, 11,761 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 61 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified. Analysis of the pathways associated with the DEGs showed that salt stress enriched expression of genes in primary and energy metabolism, such as
