Tanaka T, Sasaki K. Detection of Transcription Factors Related to Axillary Bud Development after Exposure to Cold Conditions in Hexaploid Chrysanthemum morifolium Using Arabidopsis Information. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:3122. [PMID: 37687366 PMCID: PMC10490133 DOI: 10.3390/plants12173122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2023] [Revised: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 08/23/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023]
Abstract
Chrysanthemum is one of the most commercially used ornamental flowering plants in the world. As chrysanthemum is self-incompatible, the propagation of identical varieties is carried out through cuttings rather than through seed. Axillary bud development can be controlled by changing the temperature; for instance, axillary bud development in some varieties is suppressed at high temperatures. In this study, we focused on the simultaneous axillary bud growth from multiple lines of chrysanthemum upon changing conditions from low to normal temperature. Transcriptome analysis was conducted on the Chrysanthemum morifolium cultivar 'Jinba' to identify the important genes for axillary bud development seen when moved from low-temperature treatment to normal cultivation temperature. We performed RNA-Seq analysis on plants after cold conditions in two-day time-course experiments. Under these settings, we constructed a transcriptome of 415,923 C. morifolium and extracted 7357 differentially expressed genes. Our understanding of Arabidopsis axillary meristem development and growth showed that at least 101 genes in our dataset were homologous to transcription factors involved in the biological process. In addition, six genes exhibited statistically significant variations in expression throughout conditions. We hypothesized that these genes were involved in the formation of axillary buds in C. morifolium after cold conditions.

Abstract
In recent years, it has been established that microRNAs (miRNAs) are critical for various plant physiological regulations in numerous species. Next-generation sequencing technologies have aided to our understandings related to the critical role of miRNAs during environmental stress conditions and plant development. Light influences not just miRNA accumulation but also their biological activities via regulating miRNA gene transcription, biosynthesis, and RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) activity. Light-regulated routes, processes, and activities can all be affected by miRNAs. Here, we will explore how light affects miRNA gene expression and how conserved and novel miRNAs exhibit altered expression across different plant species in response to variable light quality. Here, we will mainly discuss recent advances in understanding how miRNAs are involved in photomorphogenesis, and photoperiod-dependent plant biological processes such as cell proliferation, metabolism, chlorophyll pigment synthesis and axillary bud growth. The review concludes by presenting future prospects via hoping that light-responsive miRNAs can be exploited in a better way to engineer economically important crops to ensure future food security.
