The basic helix-loop-helix () gene family is a crucial regulator in plants, orchestrating various developmental processes, particularly flower formation, and mediating responses to hormonal signals. The molecular mechanism of bamboo flowering regulation remains unresolved, limiting bamboo breeding efforts. In this study, we identified 309 genes and divided them into 23 subfamilies.

Ma bamboo is a typical clumping bamboo, which mainly reproduces by RS. In this study, we identified and characterized 53 CDP genes and divided them into seven subfamilies.

We determined the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of using Illumina sequencing data. The complete cp sequence is 139,393 bp, include large single-copy (LSC) region of 82,969 bp, small single-copy (SSC) region of 12,874 bp, a pair of invert repeats (IR) regions of 21,775 bp.

Spraying 20 mg x L(-1) of ABA increased the cold- resistance of the seedlings significantly, manifesting in the slowing down of the decrease amplitudes of leaf net photosynthetic rate (P(n)), transpiration rate (T(r)), stomatal conductance (g(s)), and intercellular CO2 concentration (C(i)) and the increase of photosynthetic capacity. After 6 days exposure to low temperature, the initial fluorescence (F(o)) decreased with increasing concentration of applied ABA, the maximum fluorescence (F(m)) and maximal photochemical yield (F(v)/F(m)) increased, the actual photochemical efficiency of system II (phi(PSII)) and photochemical quenching coefficient (q(P)) increased after an initial decrease, and the non-photochemical quenching coefficient (q(N)) showed a 'decreasing-increasing-decreasing' trend.
