Low temperatures can severely affect plant growth and reduce their ornamental value. A family of plant histone deacetylases allows plants to cope with both biotic and abiotic stresses. In this study, we screened and cloned the cDNA of DgSRT2 obtained from transcriptome sequencing of chrysanthemum leaves under low-temperature stress.

Histone deacetylases have been demonstrated to play an important role in responding to low-temperature stress, but the related response mechanism in chrysanthemum remains unclear. In this study, we isolated a cold-induced gene, DgHDA6, from chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat). DgHDA6 contains 474 amino acids and shares a typical deacetylation domain with RPD3/HDA1 family members.

Background: Low-temperature severely affects the growth and development of chrysanthemum which is one kind of ornamental plant well-known and widely used in the world. Lysine crotonylation is a recently identified post-translational modification (PTM) with multiple cellular functions. However, lysine crotonylation under low-temperature stress has not been studied.

Lysine crotonylation of proteins is a recently identified post-translational modification (PTM) in plants. However, the function of lysine-crotonylated proteins in response to abiotic stress in plants has not been reported. In this study, we identified a temperature-induced lipocalin-1-like gene (DgTIL1) from chrysanthemum and showed that it was notably induced in response to cold stress.

Article Synopsis
  • Cold stress is really bad for plants and can stop them from growing and blooming.
  • Researchers are looking into a special gene called WRKY that helps plants survive cold temperatures better.
  • Plants with this WRKY gene can recover faster and have more protection against damage from the cold compared to regular plants.
