Transcriptomic analysis reveals candidate genes for male sterility in Prunus sibirica.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The phenomenon of male sterility widely occurs in Prunus sibirica and has a serious negative impact on yield. We identified the key stage and cause of male sterility and found differentially expressed genes related to male sterility in Prunus sibirica, and we analyzed the expression pattern of these genes. This work aimed to provide valuable reference and theoretical basis for the study of reproductive development and the mechanisms of male sterility in Prunus sibirica.

Method

The microstructures of male sterile flower buds and male fertile flower buds were observed by paraffin section. Transcriptome sequencing was used to screen genes related to male sterility in Prunus sibirica. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis was performed to ver
