Heat stress response in Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L.) revealed by transcriptome and physiological analysis.

ABSTRACT: High temperatures have a serious impact on the quality and yield of cold-loving Chinese cabbage, which has evolved to have a unique set of stress mechanisms. To explore the relationship between these mechanisms and the heat-tolerance of Chinese cabbage, the physiological indicators of the heat-tolerant '268' line and heat-sensitive '334' line were measured. Under heat stress, the proline (Pro), soluble sugar (SS), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) indexes of the '268' line increased significantly. When additionally using transcriptome analysis, we found that the identified 3,360 DEGs were abundantly enriched in many metabolic pathways including 'plant hormone signal transduction', 'carbon metabolism', and 'glycolysis/gluconeogenesis'. Dynamic gene expression patterns showed that HKL1 i
