Article Synopsis
  • Chlorophyll is crucial for celery quality, and RNA editing in chloroplasts plays a key role in its development and chlorophyll production.
  • The study identified 8 MORF genes in celery, which regulate chloroplast RNA editing, and analyzed their properties and evolutionary relationships with similar plants.
  • Results indicated that specific MORF genes are more highly expressed in green celery versus white celery, suggesting their significant role in chlorophyll accumulation and chloroplast development.

Background: Water shortage caused by global warming seriously affects the yield and quality of vegetable crops. β-carotene, the lipid-soluble natural product with important pharmacological value, is abundant in celery. Transcription factor MYB family extensively disperses in plants and plays regulatory roles in carotenoid metabolism and water scarcity response.
