Identifying genes related to salt stress and analyzing their regulatory mechanisms in peanuts under salt stress

ABSTRACT: Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is a prominent legume and oilseed crop cultivated globally for its economic significance and nutritional value, as it is rich in fat, protein, carbohydrates, and micronutrients. To meet the growing demand for edible oil and protein, it is necessary to further expand the cultivation area and improve the seed yield of peanut. Salinized land represents a potential resource for expanding peanut cultivation. However, most peanut genotypes are sensitive to salt stress, and soil salinity severely limits peanut productivity. Therefore, enhancing salt tolerance in peanut is essential. This study aimed to identify genes associated with salt stress through transcriptome analysis, thereby providing a genetic basis for improving salt tolerance in peanut. To identify salt stress-related genes, two cultivars—Huayu 33 (HY33, salt-tolerant) and Huayu 9115 (HY9115, salt-sensitive)—were subjected to salt stress treatment. Plants of HY33 and HY9115 were collected at 0 h, 3 h, 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h after salt treatment for transcriptome sequencing. Using the RNA sequencing data, numerous differentially expressed genes were identified as candidates for further functional study. This study provides extensive gene expression data for identifying key genes related to salt stress and establishes a basis for elucidating the underlying regulatory mechanisms. These findings can contribute to enhancing the salt tolerance of peanut through molecular breeding.

Project description:Background: Cylindrocladium parasiticum Crous, Wingfield & Alfenas, the causal agent of Cylindrocladium black rot (CBR) of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.), has leaded to economic losses in China. Learning about how peanut responds to C. parasiticum infection will be conducive to designing strategies for CBR control. However, the response of peanut plant to C. parasiticum is poorly understood. Results: In this study, two contrasting peanut cultivars, T09 (C. parasiticum-resistant) and P562 (C. parasiticum-susceptible) were used for comparative analysis of protein profiles in the root segment of peanut plants in responses to C. parasiticum infection. Proteomic profiling identified 1647 and 391 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in A. hypogaea L. P562 and A. hypogaea L. T09, respectively, compared to controls. A total of 350 and 1095 DEPs were identified between A. hypogaea L. P562 and A. hypogaea L. T09 before and after 9 dpi, respectively. Functional categorization by GO annotation showed that C. parasiticum-responsive proteins were mainly involved in catalytic activity and binding. The results of KEGG pathway analysis indicated both resistant and susceptible peanut cultivars can regulate gene expression in the phenylpropanoid pathway, terpenoid backbone biosynthesis, SA, and JA pathways to induce defensive genes and protein expression which enhances plant defence capacity. However, the MAPK signal pathway was more pronounced in resistant peanut cultivar T09. We also observed an increase of CYP73A100 involved in phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and flavonoid biosynthesis pathways in the susceptible peanut ecotype P562, while decrease in the resistant peanut ecotype T09, after 9 dpi. Additionally, there was a marked activation of brassinosteroid biosynthesis in the resistant T09, which indicated a possible involvement of activation of plant immune response in the resistant responses of peanut to C. parasiticum. Conclusions: This study provides some insights into the molecular networks involved on cellular and physiological responses to C. parasiticum infestation.
