| 1 | The Reference Genome of Tea Plant and Resequencing of 81 Diverse Accessions Provide Insights into Its Genome Evolution and Adaptation显示文摘Tea plant is an important economic crop,which is used to produce the world's oldest and most widely consumed tea beverages.Here,we present a high-quality reference genome assembly of the tea plant(Camellia sinensis var.sinensis)consisting of 15 pseudo-chromosomes.LTR retrotransposons(LTR-RTs)account for 70.38%of the genome,and we present evidence that LTR-RTS play critical roles in genome size expansion and the transcriptional diversification of tea plant genes through preferential insertion in promoter regions and introns.Genes,particularly those coding for terpene biosynthesis pro-teins,associated with tea aroma and stress resistance were significantly amplified through recent tandem duplications and exist as gene clusters in tea plant genome.Phylogenetic analysis of the sequences of 81 tea plant accessions with diverse origins revealed three well-differentiated tea plant populations,support-ing the proposition for the southwest origin of the Chinese cultivated tea plant and its later spread to western Asia through introduction.Domestication and modern breeding left significant signatures on hundreds of genes in the tea plant genome,particularly those associated with tea quality and stress resis-tance.The genomic sequences of the reported reference and resequenced tea plant accessions provide valuable resources for future functional genomics study and molecular breeding of improved cul-tivars of tea plants. | Enhua Xia Wei Tong Yan Hou Yanlin An Linbo Chen Qiong Wu Yunlong Liu Jie Yu Fangdong Li Ruopei Li Penghui Li Huijuan Zhao Ruoheng Ge Jin Huang Ali Inayat Mallano Yanrui Zhang Shengrui Liu Weiwei Deng Chuankui Song Zhaoliang Zhang Jian Zhao Shu Wei Zhengzhu Zhang Tao Xia Chaoling Wei Xiaochun Wan | 2020 | Molecular Plant2020，13，7： | 51 |
| 2 | Duplication and transcriptional divergence of three Kunitz protease inhibitor genes that modulate insect and pathogen defenses in tea plant(Camellia sinensis)显示文摘Kunitz protease inhibitors(KPIs)are ubiquitous in plants and act as crucial compounds in defense responses against insect attack and pathogen infection.However,the influence of gene duplication on the postdivergence of the CsKPI genes involved in biotic stresses in tea plant is not well known.Here,we identified three CsKPI genes from tea plant(Camellia sinensis)and characterized their expression and evolutionary patterns among plant species.We found that CsKPI1,CsKPI2,and CsKPI3 diverged from their common ancestor 72.94 million years ago(MYA),and the tandem duplication of CsKPI2 and CsKPI3 occurred 26.78 MYA.An in vitro protein assay showed that the three CsKPI proteins were functional and inhibited the production of p-nitroanilide(PNA)from an artificial substrate.The three CsKPI-GFP fusion proteins localized to the cytoplasm.We showed that salicylic acid(SA)and transcripts of CsKPI2 and CsKPI3 significantly accumulated after infection with Glomerella cingulata.The application of exogenous SA stimulated the high expression of both CsKPI2 and CsKPI3 by activating cis-elements within their promoters.Under Ectropis oblique attack,CsKPI1 expression and jasmonic acid(JA)levels were more abundant in both insect-damaged leaf tissues and undamaged neighboring leaves.The application of jasmonic acid methyl ester elicited high expression levels of CsKPI1,suggesting that CsKPI1 accumulation requires JA production in tea plant.The overall findings suggest that the transcriptional divergence of KPI genes after duplication led to the specialized role of CsKPI1 in the physiological response to insect stress;the functional conservation between CsKPI2 and CsKPI3 confers resistance to pathogen infection in tea plant. | Junyan Zhu Yaxian He Xiaomei Yan Lu Liu Rui Guo Xiaobo Xia Daojie Cheng Xiaozeng Mi Lidiia Samarina Shenrui Liu Enhua Xia Chaoling Wei | 2019 | Horticulture Research2019，6，1： | 2 |
| 3 | Characterization of CsWRKY29 and CsWRKY37 transcription factors and their functional roles in cold tolerance of tea plant显示文摘The WRKY gene family is most widely known as being the key plant transcription factor family involved in various stress responses and affecting plant growth and development.In this study,a total of 86 members of the CsWRKY genes were identified from the tea plant genome.Most of these genes contain several important Cis-regulatory elements in the promoter regions associated with multiple stress-responses.These genes were further classified into three groups,I,II,and III,each with 21,58,and 7 members,respectively.We showed evidence that tandem duplications,but not the whole genome duplication,are likely to drive the amplification of CsWRKY genes in tea plants.All the 86 CsWRKY genes showed differential expression patterns either in different tissues,or under exposure to diverse abiotic stresses such as drought,cold acclimation,and MeJA treatments.Additionally,the functional roles of two genes,CsWRKY29 and CsWRKY37,were examined under cold stress;and the silencing of these genes resulted in tea plant phenotypes susceptible to cold stress.Moreover,transgenic Arabidopsis lines overexpressing CsWRKY29 and CsWRKY37 genes showed higher survival rates and lower malondialdehyde levels under freezing treatment than the wild type plants.The core findings from this work provide valuable evolutionary pattern of WRKY gene family and underpinning the underlying regulatory roles of CsWRKY29 and CsWRKY37 from tea plants that conferred cold tolerance in transgenic Arabidopsis plants. | Huijuan Zhao Ali Inayat Mallano Fangdong Li Penghui Li Qiong Wu Yanli Wang Yunze Li Naveed Ahmad Wei Tong Yeyun Li Zhengzhu Zhang Enhua Xia | 2022 | Beverage Plant Research2022，2，1： | 0 |
