“…The amount of ethylene released from seedling cotyledons after low temperature stress can be used as an identi cation index of cold tolerance of cucumber, and there is a positive correlation between cold tolerance and ethylene release of cucumber varieties (Liu et al, 1994). Previous studies have shown that under low-temperature stress, AnGolS1 overexpression can not only enhance the low temperature resistance of tomato plants, but also enhance the expression of genes related to ethylene (ET) signal transduction, such as one ACC synthase (ACS1) and ve ACC oxidase (ACO) up-regulated signi cantly (Liu, 2019). Present study shows that mepiquat chloride could increase the expression level of key enzyme genes LcACS in ethylene biosynthesis pathway, and promote the expression of EIN gene in ethylene signal transduction pathway, thus promoting ethylene signal transduction pathway.…”

Under low-temperature stress, the application of chemical regulation into litchi leaves remains largely uninvestigated especially during the late spring season. In this study, we came up with transcriptomics- and metabolomics-based strategies to comprehensively survey the response mechanisms of litchi to low temperature under the treatment of mepiquat chloride. After a big fraction of transcripts and metabolites were found differentially expressed, the pathway enrichment analysis showed that carbon metabolism accounted for a large number of DEGs (Differentially Expressed Genes). The effects of mepiquat chloride on carbon metabolism were found up regulated in the enrichment analysis for differential metabolites or transcripts. In addition, the combinational analysis of transcriptomics and metabolomics indicated mepiquat chloride coordinately regulates transcripts and metabolites by forming a tightly linked network. The integration of metabolomics and transcriptomics revealed that mepiquat chloride potentially promotes the expression of transcription factor and drives the upregulation of citrate synthase, and isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD+) in the pathways of carbon metabolism. Meanwhile, upregulation of antioxidant related genes in the pathway of peroxisome. Considering that carbon metabolism is tightly related to photosynthesis, the physiological measurements of photosynthetic indexes suggested mepiquat chloride presented the potentials to improve the ability of photosynthesis for litchi under low-temperature stress. This comprehensive study combining transcriptomics and metabolomics provided a basis and strategy for understanding how higher plants respond stresses under chemical regulation.
