Transcriptome Analysis of Zygophyllum xanthoxylum Adaptation Strategies to Phosphate Stress.

ABSTRACT: Soil phosphate (Pi) deficiency is a global issue and a major constraint on plant growth. Plants typically acclimatize to low Pi by enhancing their P utilization and/or P acquisition efficiencies; however, different species have variable preferred strategies. RNA sequencing analysis was performed on the shoots and roots of Zygophyllum xanthoxylum, under 1 day and 10 days of Pi stress, to investigate their adaptation strategies to P deprivation. A total of 364,614 unigenes and 9,270 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were obtained via transcriptome sequencing. An analysis of the DEGs revealed that under the 10D treatment, anthocyanin synthesis genes were upregulated under Pi stress, whereas gibberellin, ethylene, and cytokinins synthesis genes were upregulated, and abscisic acid sy
