Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Genes and Pathways Associated with Salt Tolerance during Seed Germination in Suaeda liaotungensis.

ABSTRACT: Seed germination is susceptible to external environmental factors, especially salt stress. Suaeda liaotungensis is a halophyte with strong salt tolerance, and the germination rate of brown seeds under 1000 mM NaCl treatment still reached 28.9%. To explore the mechanism of salt stress response during brown seed germination in Suaeda liaotungensis, we conducted transcriptomic analysis on the dry seeds (SlD), germinated seeds under the control condition (SlG_C), and salt treatment (SlG_N). Transcriptome analysis revealed that 13314 and 755 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) from SlD vs. SlG_C and SlG_C vs. SlG_N were detected, respectively. Most DEGs were enriched in pathways related to transcription regulation and hormone signal transduction, ROS metabolism, cell wall organi
