sp. is an economically important crop for rural revitalization in southwest China. However, often infects sp. corms during storage, damaging the corm quality and affecting leaf elongation and flowering in the subsequent crop. In this study, the mechanism of resistance to was investigated in the leaf bud and flower bud corms of through transcriptome and metabolome analyses. A total of 42.52 Gb clean reads and 1,525 metabolites were detected in a total of 12 samples including 3 samples each of disease-free leaf bud corms (LC), leaf bud corms inoculated with for three days (LD), disease-free flower bud corms (FC), and flower bud corms inoculated with for three days (FD). Transcriptome, metabolome, and conjoint analyses showed that 'MAPK signal transduction', 'plant-pathogen interaction', 'plant hormone signal transduction', and other secondary metabolite biosynthesis pathways, including 'phenylpropane biosynthesis', 'arachidonic acid metabolism', 'stilbene, diarylheptane and gingerolin biosynthesis', and 'isoquinoline alkaloids biosynthesis', among others, were involved in the defense response of to . Ultimately, the expression of six genes of interest (, , , , POD and ) was validated by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and the results indicated that these genes were involved in the response of to . Ferulic acid inhibited the growth of , reducing the harm caused by to corms to a certain extent. Overall, this study lays a strong foundation for further investigation of the interaction between and , and provides a list of genes for the future breeding of -resistant cultivars.

Article Synopsis
- * There is a knowledge gap regarding the transition from dormant buds to flowering in saffron, with significant differences in flowering potential between large and small corms.
- * A comprehensive study integrating morphological, histological, and metabolomic data revealed key metabolites involved in flowering processes, paving the way for biotechnological advancements in saffron cultivation.
Article Synopsis
- Cultivation of saffron (Crocus sativus) is hindered by inconsistent flowering related to the size of the corms, prompting a need for a deeper understanding of genetic factors influencing this process.
- Samples of flowering and non-flowering apical buds from small and large corms were sequenced using RNA sequencing to identify gene expression differences tied to flowering initiation.
- Key findings revealed that starch and sucrose metabolism, hormonal regulation, and certain genes significantly influence flowering, suggesting that genetic determinants play a crucial role in size-dependent flowering in saffron.

has a multileaf growth pattern different from that of other konjacs; however, the hormonal mechanism underlying this phenomenon is not clear. In this study, the levels of hormones closely related to the sprouting of the axillary bud, including five types of cytokinins, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and abscisic acid (ABA) were measured. In the second leaf sprouting stage, the content of trans-zeatin riboside (tZR) in corms increased more than 5000-fold over that in the dormancy period.

Soaking corms in distilled water improved the propagation and development of cormlets, suggesting the potential leaching-out of inhibitory chemical compounds. To investigate the presence of inhibitory compounds, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectral data of the leachate from dormant corms were obtained using a 600 MHz H-NMR spectrometer. The H-NMR analysis led to the identification of choline, succinate, propylene glycol, and lactose, as inhibitory compounds.
