“…Meanwhile, v-myb avian myeloblastosis viral oncogene homolog (MYB), basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH), WD-repeat protein (WD40), and other transcription factors can affect the synthesis of anthocyanins by regulating the expression of structural genes [17][18][19]. Furthermore, environmental factors also impact the accumulation of anthocyanins in plants [20][21][22][23][24].…”

Anthocyanin, a kind of flavonoid, plays a crucial role in plant resistance to abiotic stress. Salt stress is a kind of abiotic stress that can damage the growth and development of plant seedlings. However, limited research has been conducted on the involvement of maize seedlings in salt stress resistance via anthocyanin accumulation, and its potential molecular mechanism is still unclear. Therefore, it is of great significance for the normal growth and development of maize seedlings to explore the potential molecular mechanism of anthocyanin improving salt tolerance of seedlings via transcriptome analysis. In this study, we identified two W22 inbred lines (tolerant line pur–W22 and sensitive line bro–W22) exhibiting differential tolerance to salt stress during seedling growth and development but showing no significant differences in seedling characteristics under non–treatment conditions. In order to identify the specific genes involved in seedlings’ salt stress response, we generated two recombinant inbred lines (RILpur–W22 and RILbro–W22) by crossing pur–W22 and bro–W22, and then performed transcriptome analysis on seedlings grown under both non–treatment and salt treatment conditions. A total of 6100 and 5710 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in RILpur–W22 and RILbro–W22 seedlings, respectively, under salt–stressed conditions when compared to the non–treated groups. Among these DEGs, 3160 were identified as being present in both RILpur–W22 and RILbro–W22, and these served as commonly stressed EDGs that were mainly enriched in the redox process, the monomer metabolic process, catalytic activity, the plasma membrane, and metabolic process regulation. Furthermore, we detected 1728 specific DEGs in the salt–tolerant RILpur–W22 line that were not detected in the salt–sensitive RILbro–W22 line, of which 887 were upregulated and 841 were downregulated. These DEGs are primarily associated with redox processes, biological regulation, and the plasma membrane. Notably, the anthocyanin synthesis related genes in RILpur–W22 were strongly induced under salt treatment conditions, which was consistented with the salt tolerance phenotype of its seedlings. In summary, the results of the transcriptome analysis not only expanded our understanding of the complex molecular mechanism of anthocyanin in improving the salt tolerance of maize seedlings, but also, the DEGs specifically expressed in the salt–tolerant line (RILpur–W22) provided candidate genes for further genetic analysis.

Aims Environmental conditions, such as soil stress, are crucial for the accumulation of secondary metabolites in medicinal plants. This study aims to determine which soil type and environmental factors can promote the accumulation of hesperidin, nobiletin and tangeretin in the pericarps of Citrus reticulata ‘Chachi’ (Citrus reticulata cv. Chachiensis).Methods This study selected Citrus reticulata ‘Chachi’ planted in paddy soil, red soil, alluvial soil and conducted correlation between meteorological, soil factors and the three components. Then, linear regression models (LRMs) and random forest models (RFMs) were used to screen the soil factors affecting accumulation of the three components. Structural equation models (SEMs) were established to further explore how key soil factors affect the accumulation of the three components.Results Our results indicated that there was no significant difference in meteorological factors among the three regions (p > 0.05), and no correlation was found between the meteorological factors and the three components. Soil factors in three soil types, such as K, Ca, Mg, Mn, salinity and pH, have significant impacts on the content variation of hesperidin, nobiletin and tangeretin. The deficiency of K and Ca, play a crucial role in the accumulation of the three components.Conclusions Citrus reticulata ‘Chachi’ cultivated in soil with deficient K and Ca is more inclined to accumulate hesperidin, nobiletin and tangeretin in pericarps, which provides guidance for reasonable cultivation and paddy, red and alluvial soil improvement to promote the contents of medicinal components and the quality of medicinal plants.
