Transcriptome analysis of differentially expressed genes in chrysanthemum MET1 RNA interference lines.

ABSTRACT: DNA methylation is the most important epigenetic modification involved in many essential biological processes. MET1 is one of DNA methyltransferases that affect the level of methylation in the entire genome. To explore the effect of MET1 gene silencing on gene expression profile of Chrysanthemum × morifolium 'Zijingling'. The stem section and leaves at the young stage were taken for transcriptome sequencing. MET1-_RNAi leaves had 8 differentially expressed genes while 156 differentially expressed genes were observed in MET1-_RNAi stem compared with control leaves and stem. These genes encode many key proteins in plant biological processes, such as transcription factors, signal transduction mechanisms, secondary metabolite synthe
