This study conducted RNA-seq analysis on two genotypes of Eucalyptus camaldulensis to identify wind-resistance genes and transcription factors. The results showed that the expression of genes and pathways related to cell wall biosynthesis, cellulose, and lignin synthesis were significantly altered in response to wind stress.
Background. Wind, an important abiotic stress factor, affects forests in coastal areas, causes tree damage and timber loss. Methods. Two genotypes of Eucalyptus camaldulensis-strong wind-resistant CA5 and weak wind-resistant C037 were used for RNA-seq analysis to screen for candidate wind-resistance genes and transcription factors (TFs) by comparing the transcriptome analysis of the two varieties in response to wind stress. Results. It showed that 7061 differentially expressed unigenes could be annotated including 4,110 up-regulated unigenes and 2,951 down-regulated unigenes. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis revealed that six cellulose pathways were involved in response to wind stress. The unigenes in phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, phenylalanine metabolism, and flavonoid biosynthesis pathways were found to be differentially expressed based on Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis. Moreover, 37 differentially expressed genes were functionally annotated to be involved in the secondary metabolism of phenylalanine (ko00940). Seventy-eight TFs related to the regulating cellulose and lignin synthesis were expressed differently from the various treatments. The expressions of C3H, POX, MYB, NAC, Gene008307, and Gene011799 were significantly upregulated in CA5. Overall, the main response of Eucalyptus to wind stress was associated with cell wall biosynthesis; key genes of cellulose and lignin biosynthesis pathways and related TFs were involved in the tree response to wind stress.
