Understanding the amylose biosynthesis and regulation mechanisms in Tartary buckwheat by the endosperm transcriptome
Starch serves as a crucial energy source for both plants and humans, predominantly synthesized and stored in endosperms, tubers, rhizomes, and cotyledons. Given the significant role of amylose in determining the quality of starchy crops, optimizing its content has become a key objective in current crop breeding efforts. Tartary buckwheat, a dicotyledonous plant, notably accumulates high levels of amylose in its endosperm, surpassing common cereals like rice and maize. However, the mechanisms underlying amylose accumulation, distribution, and regulation in Tartary buckwheat remain unclear. Here, amylose content was determined across various tissues and organs of Tartary buckwheat, identifying with the endosperm as the primary site for its biosynthesis and accumulation. RNA sequencing analysis of endosperms from different developmental stages identified 35 genes potentially involved in starch biosynthesis, with 13 genes showing high endosperm-specific expression, suggesting crucial roles in starch biosynthesis. Additionally, the transcription factor FtNF-YB2, which was specifically highly expressed in the endosperm, was discovered to enhance amylose synthesis. Moreover, promoters with potential endosperm-specific activity were identified, advancing our understanding of amylose regulation. Additionally, this study also demonstrates that brassinosteroids (BR) positively influence amylose biosynthesis in Tartary buckwheat endosperm. These findings provide essential insights into the mechanisms of understanding amylose biosynthesis, accumulation and regulation in Tartary buckwheat, offering significant implications for future breeding strategies.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Biological Macromolecules is a well-established international journal dedicated to research on the chemical and biological aspects of natural macromolecules. Focusing on proteins, macromolecular carbohydrates, glycoproteins, proteoglycans, lignins, biological poly-acids, and nucleic acids, the journal presents the latest findings in molecular structure, properties, biological activities, interactions, modifications, and functional properties. Papers must offer new and novel insights, encompassing related model systems, structural conformational studies, theoretical developments, and analytical techniques. Each paper is required to primarily focus on at least one named biological macromolecule, reflected in the title, abstract, and text.
