Abstract:

In order to explore the molecular mechanism of diploid potato material response to drought stress under different drought stress time treatment,and explore drought resistance related genes.The high drought-resistant diploid resource A90 was used as experimental material,and transcriptome sequencing technology was used to analyze the differentially expressed genes under PEG-6000 stress at different times.Differentially expressed genes involved in drought stress response of potato were predicted by GO enrichment,KEGG pathway analysis and transcription factors,and key genes of drought resistance regulation were preliminarily explored.The expression of three candidate genes was analyzed by RT-qPCR.The results showed that there were 2 519 differentially expressed genes in the A90 treated with 20% PEG-6000 for 3,6,24 h compared with the control,and these genes were mainly enriched in plant hormone signal transduction,glutathione metabolism,phenylpropanoid biosynthesis,pentose and glucuronate interconversions and other drought-related processes.In addition,among 340 codifferentially expressed genes significantly enriched in the pathway,53 genes were annotated to 15 transcription factor families including RLKs,AP2/ERF and Tify.Among which StST/K1,StERF1 and StTify1 had higher expression levels,which might be key genes in drought resistance regulation.StST/K1 and StERF1 were mainly up-regulated in roots and leaves under drought and low temperature stress,StERF1 was up-regulated in roots,stems and leaves under salt stress.StTify1 was up-regulated in stems and leaves of the material under drought,and it was up-regulated in roots,stems and leaves under salt stress.But it was down-regulated only in stems of the material under low temperature stress.These results indicate that the three selected genes can respond to drought,salt and low temperature stress,it can provide a theoretical basis for study on drought resistance candidate genes in potato molecular breeding in the future.
