Integration of Transcriptional and Post-transcriptional Analysis Revealed the Early Response Mechanism of Sugarcane to Cold Stress.

ABSTRACT: Cold stress causes major losses to sugarcane production, yet the precise molecular mechanisms that cause losses due to cold stress are not well-understood. To survey miRNAs and genes involved in cold tolerance, RNA-seq, miRNA-seq, and integration analyses were performed on Saccharum spontaneum. Results showed that a total of 118,015 genes and 6,034 of these differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) analyses revealed that ABA signaling via protein phosphatase 2Cs was the most important signal transduction pathway and late embryogenesis abundant protein was the hub protein associated with adaptation to cold stress. Furthermore, a total of 856 miRNAs were identified in this study and 109 of them were differentially expressed in sugarcane res
