Flavonoid Metabolism Pathway Response to the Process of Exogenous Carbon Regulates Grape Growth
摘要
Environmental conditions regulating secondary metabolites of plants have been extensively studied. However, the relationship between exogenous carbon (eCO2) and flavonoid biosynthesis of grape remains unrevealed, Hence, two-factor mixed experiments were designed, including CO2 (ambient concentration: 380 ± 40 μmol/mol; high concentration: 1000 μmol/mol) and sucrose (0 and 20 g/L). Four treatments were S1 (CK: ambient CO2 with 20 g/L sucrose), C0 (high CO2 and no sucrose), S0 (ambient CO2 and no sucrose) and Cs (high CO2 with 20 g/L sucrose). Subsequently, transcriptome and proteome analysis were performed on the experimental samples. The results revealed that 38 differentially expressed genes (DEGs, 14 up-regulated and 24 down-regulated) significantly differentially expressed in eCO2, which associated with flavonoid biosynthesis pathway. The up-regulated DEGs mainly include flavonoid-3, 5′-hydroxylase (LOC100232896, LOC104877273, LOC100248071), anthocyanin O-methyltransferase (FAOMT), chalcone synthase (CHS3, CHS), leucoanthocyanidin reductase 1 (LAR1), flavanone 3-hydroxylase (F3H), anthocyanidin reductase (ANR), leucoanthocyanidin dioxygenase (LDOX), dihydroflavonol reductase (DFR), chalcone isomerase (CHI), flavonoid 3′, 5′-methyltransferase (LOC100245452), and chalcone-flavonone isomerase 3 (LOC100255217). Moreover, there were three differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) involved in the flavonoid biosynthesis pathway, which were CHS, CHS3, and VIT_11s0037g00570. In conclusion, exogenous carbon maybe induce flavonoid metabolic pathway by promoting flavonoid metabolic enzyme expression to influence plant growth.
