RNA-seq and phytohormone analysis reveals the culm color variation of Bambusa oldhamii Munro.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The clumping bamboo Bambusa oldhamii Munro, known as "green bamboo", is famous for its edible bamboo shoots and fast-growing timber. The green and yellow striped-culm B. oldhamii variety, named B. oldhamii f. revoluta W.T. Lin & J. Y. Lin, is an attractive system for researching the culm color variation of B. oldhamii.

Methods

Millions of clean reads were generated and assembled into 604,900 transcripts, and 383,278 unigenes were acquired with RNA-seq technology. The quantification of ABA, IAA, JA, GA₁, GA₃, GA₄, and GA₇ was performed using HPLC-MS/MS platforms.

Results

Differential expression analysis showed that 449 unigenes were differentially expressed genes (DEGs), among whi
