Time-Course Transcriptomic Profiling of Floral Induction in Cultivated Strawberry.

ABSTRACT: The initiation and quality of flowering directly affect the time to market and economic benefit of cultivated strawberries, but the underlying mechanisms of these processes are largely unknown. To investigate the gene activity during the key period of floral induction in strawberries, time-course transcriptome analysis was performed on the shoot apex of the strawberry cultivar 'Benihoppe.' A total of 7177 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified through pairwise comparisons. These DEGs were grouped into four clusters with dynamic expression patterns. By analyzing the key genes in the potential flowering pathways and the development of the leaf and flower, at least 73 DEGs that may be involved in the regulatory network of floral induction in strawberries were identified, some o
