Flowers of fragrant roses such as Rosa bourboniana are ethylene-sensitive and undergo rapid petal abscission while hybrid roses show reduced ethylene sensitivity and delayed abscission. To understand the molecular mechanism underlying these diferences, a comparative transcriptome of petal abscission zones (AZ) of 0 h and 8 h ethylene-treated fowers from R. bourboniana was performed. Diferential regulation of 3700 genes (1518 up, 2182 down) representing 8.5% of the AZ transcriptome was observed between 0 and 8 h ethylene-treated R. bourboniana petal AZ. Abscission was associated with large scale up-regulation of the ethylene pathway but prominent suppression of the JA, auxin and light-regulated pathways. Regulatory genes encoding kinases/phosphatases/F-box proteins and transcription factors formed the major group undergoing diferential regulation besides genes for transporters, wall modifcation, defense and phenylpropanoid pathways. Further comparisons with ethylene-treated petals of R. bourboniana and 8 h ethylene-treated AZ (R. hybrida) identifed a core set of 255 genes uniquely regulated by ethylene in R. bourboniana AZ. Almost 23% of these encoded regulatory proteins largely conserved with Arabidopsis AZ components. Most of these were up-regulated while an entire set of photosystem genes was prominently down-regulated. The studies provide important information on regulation of petal abscission in roses. We are grateful to the Council of Scientifc and Industrial Research, India for funding the work under the project BSC107 and for Junior and Senior Research Fellowships to PS, SKT, AP Singh, SPP and ASC. We thank Mr Ram Awadh for taking care of the rose plants. |
