Characterization of MADS-box genes in Chinese cherry and overexpression of CpMADS2 promoting early flowering in transgenic Arabidopsis
The Chinese cherry (Cerasus pseudocerasus Lindl.) cv. 'Manaohong', a distinctive cultivar indigenous to Guizhou Province, China, possesses significant nutritional and economic value. In our previous studies, we observed an abnormal flowering phenomenon in the 'Manaohong' cherry. The MADS-box gene family plays a pivotal role in regulating flowering time and the floral organs development in plants. In this study, we identified 51 CpMADS genes. Transcriptome analysis revealed that the PI-like gene CpMADS2 was significantly differentially expressed between normal flowers (NF) and abnormal flowers (AF) in Chinese cherry. To further investigate the functional role of CpMADS2, it was cloned from the Chinese cherry. Overexpression of CpMADS2 in Arabidopsis thaliana exhibited earlier flowering compared to wild-type. Yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) assay and luciferase complementation assay (LCA) confirmed that CpMADS2 interacts with the CpFT, suggesting that CpMADS2 may promotes flowering by interacting with CpFT. This study provides a theoretical foundation for further research on the role of CpMADS2 in regulating abnormal flowering in Chinese cherry.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Plant Physiology is a broad-spectrum journal that welcomes high-quality submissions in all major areas of plant physiology, including plant biochemistry, functional biotechnology, computational and synthetic plant biology, growth and development, photosynthesis and respiration, transport and translocation, plant-microbe interactions, biotic and abiotic stress. Studies are welcome at all levels of integration ranging from molecules and cells to organisms and their environments and are expected to use state-of-the-art methodologies. Pure gene expression studies are not within the focus of our journal. To be considered for publication, papers must significantly contribute to the mechanistic understanding of physiological processes, and not be merely descriptive, or confirmatory of previous results. We encourage the submission of papers that explore the physiology of non-model as well as accepted model species and those that bridge basic and applied research. For instance, studies on agricultural plants that show new physiological mechanisms to improve agricultural efficiency are welcome. Studies performed under uncontrolled situations (e.g. field conditions) not providing mechanistic insight will not be considered for publication.
The Journal of Plant Physiology publishes several types of articles: Original Research Articles, Reviews, Perspectives Articles, and Short Communications. Reviews and Perspectives will be solicited by the Editors; unsolicited reviews are also welcome but only from authors with a strong track record in the field of the review. Original research papers comprise the majority of published contributions.
