description | Abstract Background Heterosis breeding is one of the most important breeding methods for chrysanthemum. To date, the genetic mechanisms of heterosis for waterlogging tolerance in chrysanthemum are still unclear. This study aims to analyze the expression profiles and potential heterosis-related genes of two hybrid lines and their parents with extreme differences in waterlogging tolerance under control and waterlogging stress conditions by RNA-seq. Results A population of 140 F1 progeny derived from Chrysanthemum indicum (Nanchang) (waterlogging-tolerant) and Chrysanthemum indicum (Nanjing) (waterlogging-sensitive) was used to characterize the extent of genetic variation in terms of seven waterlogging tolerance-related traits across two years. Lines 98 and 95, respectively displaying positive and negative overdominance heterosis for the waterlogging tolerance traits together with their parents under control and waterlogging stress conditions, were used for RNA-seq. In consequence, the maximal number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) occurred in line 98. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis revealed multiple stress-related biological processes for the common up-regulated genes. Line 98 had a significant increase in non-additive genes under waterlogging stress, with transgressive up-regulation and paternal-expression dominant patterns being the major gene expression profiles. Further, GO analysis identified 55 and 95 transgressive up-regulation genes that overlapped with the up-regulated genes shared by two parents in terms of responses to stress and stimulus, respectively. 6,640 genes in total displaying maternal-expression dominance patterns were observed in line 95. In addition, 16 key candidate genes, including SAP12, DOX1, and ERF017 which might be of significant importance for the formation of waterlogging tolerance heterosis in line 98, were highlighted. Conclusion The current study provides a comprehensive overview of the root transcriptomes among F1 hybrids and their parents under waterlogging stress. These findings lay the foundation for further studies on molecular mechanisms underlying chrysanthemum heterosis on waterlogging tolerance. |
