Hydrogen-rich water promotes the formation of bulblets in Lilium davidii var. unicolor through regulating sucrose and starch metabolism.

ABSTRACT:

Main conclusion

HRW increased the content of starch and sucrose via regulating a series of sucrose and starch synthesis genes, which induced the formation of bulblets and adventitious roots of Lilium davidii var. unicolor. Hydrogen gas (H₂), as a signaling molecule, has been reported to be involved in plant growth and development. Here, the effect of hydrogen-rich water (HRW) on the formation of bulblets and adventitious roots in the scale cuttings of Lilium davidii var. unicolor and its mechanisms at the molecular levels were investigated. The results revealed that compared with distilled water treatment (Con), the number of bulblets and adventitious roots were significantly promoted by different concentrations of HRW treatment. Treatment with 100% HRW obtained the most
