    Abstract To investigate the cold response mechanism and low temperature regulation of flowering in tulips, this study identified 32 MADS-box transcription factor family members in tulips based on full-length transcriptome sequencing, named TgMADS1-TgMADS32. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that these genes can be divided into two classes: type I and type II. Structural analysis showed that

    Abstract Tulips are commercially important garden and cut flowers. With numerous wild species, China is one of the distribution centers of Tulipa. It is of great significance to tulip breeding to clarify the genetic relationships between wild species and the cultivars. We conducted rDNA oligo-FISH, karyotype analysis and rDNA sequencing of eight wild species and four cultivars. The results indicated that the 45S rDNA distribution presented a typical interspecies evolutionary trend among different Tulipa sections. The differences in 5S rDNA manifested mainly in the number of loci, which ranged from two to several dozen. Surprisingly, 11 base deletions appeared in the coding region of 5S rDNA in three wild species and three cultivars. The probes we designed clearly revealed that 5S rDNA sequences containing a complete coding region are necessary in each species, regardless of whether they can be detected by PCR using universal primers. Compared with data based on phenotype and molecular markers, our results provide clearer and more stable evidence for the classification of tulips. We concluded that among the wild Tulipa species studied, Tulipa edulis is the most primitive, whereas T. schrenkii and T. tianschanica are the most similar to cultivars.

    Abstract Bud dormancy is an important trait in geophytes that largely affects their flowering process and vegetative growth after dormancy release. Compared with seed dormancy, the regulation of bud dormancy is still largely unclear. Abscisic acid (ABA) acts as the predominant hormone that regulates the whole dormancy process. In Gladiolus (Gladiolus hybridus), cold storage promotes corm dormancy release (CDR) by repressing ABA biosynthesis and signaling. However, the mechanisms governing ABA-related processes during CDR via epigenetics are poorly understood. Here, we show that class I BASIC PENTACYSTEINE2, (GhBPC2) directly binds to 9-CIS-EPOXYCAROTENOID DIOXYGENASE (GhNCED) and ABA INSENSITIVE5 (GhABI5) loci and down-regulates their expression to accelerate CDR. During CDR, histone modifications change dramatically at the GhBPC2-binding loci of GhABI5 with an increase in H3K27me3 and a decrease in H3K4me3. GhBPC2 is involved in both H3K27me3 and H3K4me3 and fine-tunes GhABI5 expression by recruiting polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) and the chromatin remodeling factor EARLY BOLTING IN SHORT DAYS (GhEBS). These results show GhBPC2 epigenetically regulates CDR in Gladiolus by mediating GhABI5 expression with PRC2 and GhEBS.

    Abstract Lily is a bulbous plant with an endogenous dormancy trait. Fine-tuning bulb dormancy release is still a challenge in the development of bulb storage technology. In this study, we identified three regulators of symplastic transport, 2,3-Butanedione oxime (BDM), N-Ethyl maleimide (NEM), and 2-Deoxy-D-glucose (DDG), that also regulate bulb dormancy release. We demonstrated that BDM and DDG inhibited callose synthesis between cells and promoted symplastic transport and soluble sugars in the shoot apical meristem (SAM), eventually accelerating bulb dormancy release and flowering in lilies. Conversely, NEM had the opposite effect. These three regulators can be flexibly applied to either accelerate or delay lily bulb dormancy release.

    Abstract The innate physiological dormancy of Tulipa thianschanica seeds ensures its survival and regeneration in the natural environment. However, the low percentage of germination restricts the establishment of its population and commercial breeding. To develop effective ways to break dormancy and improve germination, some important factors of seed germination of T. thianschanica were tested, including temperature, gibberellin (GA₃) and/or kinetin (KT), cold stratification and sowing depth. The percentage of germination was as high as 80.7% at a constant temperature of 4 °C, followed by 55.6% at a fluctuating temperature of 4/16 °C, and almost no seeds germinated at 16 °C, 20 °C and 16/20 °C. Treatment with exogenous GA₃ significantly improved the germination of seeds, but KT had a slight effect on the germination of T. thianschanica seeds. The combined treatment of GA₃ and KT was more effective at enhancing seed germination than any individual treatment, and the optimal hormone concentration for the germination of T. thianschanica seeds was 100 mg/L GA₃ + 10 mg/L KT. In addition, it took at least 20 days of cold stratification to break the seed dormancy of T. thianschanica. The emergence of T. thianschanica seedlings was the highest with 82.4% at a sowing depth of 1.5 cm, and it decreased significantly at a depth of >3.0 cm. This study provides information on methods to break dormancy and promote the germination of T. thianschanica seeds.

    Abstract Flower senescence is classified into ethylene-dependent and ethylene-independent manners and determines the flower longevity which is valuable for ornamental plants. However, the manner of petal senescence in tulip is still less defined. In this study, we characterized the physiological indexes in the process of petal senescence, as well as metabolic and ethylene responses in tulip cultivar ‘American Dream’, and further identified the role of ethylene biosynthesis genes TgACS by transgenic and transient assays. Primary metabolites profiling revealed that sugars, amino acids and organic acids preferentially accumulated in senescent petals. Additionally, senescence-associated genes were identified and significantly up-regulated, coupled with increased ROS contents, rapid water loss and accelerated cell membrane breakdown. Moreover, ethylene production was stimulated as evidenced by increasing in ACS activity and ethylene biosynthesis-related genes expression. Exogenous treatment of cutting flowers with 1-MCP or ethephon resulted in delayed or enhanced petal senescence, respectively. Transient down-regulation of TgACS by VIGS assay in tulip petals delayed senescence, while over-expressed TgACS1 in tobacco promoted leaf senescence. Taken together, this study provides evidences to certify ethylene roles and TgACS functions during flower senescence in tulip.

    Abstract The information of ploidy, karyotype and genetic relationship is useful for interspecific hybridization in ornamental plants. For Tulipa species native to China, very limited cytological information is available now. The objective of this study was to verify the chromosome number, karyotype and genetic relationship of the eight Tulipa species: T. edulis, T. schrenkii, T. iliensis, T. thianschanica, T. altaica, T. sinkiangensis, T. heterophylla and T. buhseana. And the interspecific crosses were made between T. altaica and ten tulip cultivars to obtain novel germplasm. The ovary-swelling, fruit-setting and bulblet formation rates were surveyed when different ploidy cultivars were used as female parents. This work confirmed that all eight species collected in China were diploid (2n = 2x = 24), among which chromosome numbers of T. thianschanica, T. sinkiangensis and T. heterophylla were firstly reported and the karyotypes of all any other species except for T. edulis were determined for the first time. The karyotypes of eight Tulipa species were classified as 3A, 4A or 3B. The results of interspecific hybridization showed significant difference when different ploidy cultivars were used as female parents. The highest fruit-setting rate was obtained when diploid cultivars were used as female parents crossed with diploid T. altaica, whereas the ovary swelling was observed in two out of four triploid cultivars as female parents, and no seeds were harvested when tetraploid cultivars were used as female parents. Our findings provided an effective means of cultivar improvement in tulip.
