Project description:Flavonoid is an important secondary metabolite, which makes an important contribution to plant resistance to abiotic stress and human health. Fagopyrum tataricum (Tartary buckwheat) itself contains more flavonoids, so exploring the regulation of Tartary buckwheat flavonoid synthesis can provide a solid theoretical basis for the cultivation of new Tartary buckwheat varieties with high nutrition. In this paper, we studied the role of FtMYBs in regulating the biosynthesis of flavonoids in Tartary buckwheat.
Project description:We generated 61.9 Gb of high-quality sequencing data (~6.59 Gb per sample) and catalogued the expression profiles of 9,765 annotated Tartary buckwheat genes in each sample. The analysis showed differences of transcriptomes during the development of buckwheat. We identified numerous differentially expressed genes that exhibited distinct expression patterns. These genes have known or potential roles in development of buckwheat. Therefore, we are appealing candidates for further investigation of the gene expression and associated regulatory mechanisms.
