Depicting the molecular responses of adventitious rooting to waterlogging in melon hypocotyls by transcriptome profiling.

ABSTRACT: Waterlogging is a severe abiotic stressor that inhibits crop growth and productivity owing to the decline in the amount of oxygen available to the waterlogged organs. Although melon (Cucumis melo L.) is sensitive to waterlogging, its ability to form adventitious roots facilitates the diffusion of oxygen and allows the plant to survive waterlogging. To provide comprehensive insight into the adventitious rooting in response to waterlogging of melon, global transcriptome changes during this process were investigated. Of the 17,146 genes expressed during waterlogging, 7363 of them were differentially expressed in the pairwise comparisons between different waterlogging treatment time points. A further analysis suggested that the genes involved in sugar cleavage, glycolysis, fermentation,
