Abstract:

MYB21 is the key transcription factor regulating filament elongation. The flower buds from two Prunus mume cultivars,‘Fenhong Zhusha’(early-flowering)and‘Zaolü’e’(late-flowering),were used as experimental materials. The full length cDNA sequences of PmMYB21 from two cultivars were cloned and found that they have the same sequence. Sequence analysis showed that PmMYB21 protein contains the R2R3 conserved domain of MYB transcription factor. Phylogenetic analysis showed high homology between PmMYB21 and MYB21 protein from other plant species. The subcellular localization experiment showed that PmMYB21 was located in the cell nucleus. The expression level of PmMYB21 in both cultivars increased as the filament elongate during the flower opening process. The up-regulated timing of PmMYB21 expression level in early-flowering cultivar was significantly earlier than in late-flowering cultivar. Additionally,Hypomethylation region of CG-context were detected within-1 529 to-1 243 bp of PmMYB21 promoter region during flowering process in both two cultivars. The methylation level of this region was negatively correlated with the expression level of PmMYB21. The cis-acting elements including elements responsive to abscisic acid,gibberellin,and light were also detected within the hypomethylation region,suggesting that these regulatory processes might be affected by methylation modifications. The results of weighted gene co-expression network analysis(WGCNA)showed that 5 296 DEGs had highest connectivity with PmMYB21,significantly enriched in response to hormone. Combining the candidate genes screened by WGCNA and the expression pattern of candidate genes,PmMYB21 was predicted participated the signal transduction of hormones such as auxin(IAA),gibberellin(GA)and jasmonic acid(JA),and resulting in the filament elongation of P. mume.

Key words: Prunus mume, filament elongation, PmMYB21, methylation modification, WGCNA, response to hormone
