is an economically important orchid species that is sensitive to cold stress. Understanding the molecular and metabolic mechanisms underlying its response to cold is crucial for developing strategies to improve its cold tolerance. In this study, we constructed a comprehensive cold stress response dataset for and characterized its regulatory landscape in response to varying cold stress conditions. The glycine metabolism-related genes and play pivotal roles in both cold and drought stress adaptation, and their expression is not upregulated by hormones or fungi infection. Carbohydrate metabolism showed specific dynamic changes in freezing injury cells, which involved a variety of hormonal responses. The abundance of sphingolipids was notably higher in the freezing treatment (FT) compared to the freezing recovery (FR) plants, indicating specialized metabolic adaptations at different cold intensities. An alternative splicing (AS) analysis identified 368 DAS genes, with spliceosome pathways significantly enriched. Three key ubiquitination proteins (PKU64802, XP_020672210, and PKU75555) were found to regulate splicing factors, which showed increased abundance in cold stress. This study highlights the roles of metabolic reprogramming and RNA splicing in cold adaptation, revealing a complex molecular network activated in response to cold stress.
是一种对冷胁迫敏感的具有经济重要性的兰花物种。了解其对寒冷反应的分子和代谢机制对于制定提高其耐寒性的策略至关重要。在本研究中,我们构建了一个针对的全面冷胁迫反应数据集,并表征了其在不同冷胁迫条件下的调控格局。与甘氨酸代谢相关的基因和在冷胁迫和干旱胁迫适应中都起着关键作用,并且它们的表达不会因激素或真菌感染而上调。碳水化合物代谢在冻害细胞中表现出特定的动态变化,这涉及多种激素反应。与冻融恢复(FR)植株相比,冻融处理(FT)植株中鞘脂的丰度明显更高,表明在不同冷强度下有专门的代谢适应。一项可变剪接(AS)分析鉴定出368个差异可变剪接基因,其中剪接体途径显著富集。发现三个关键泛素化蛋白(PKU64802、XP_020672210和PKU75555)调节剪接因子,这些剪接因子在冷胁迫下丰度增加。本研究突出了代谢重编程和RNA剪接在冷适应中的作用,揭示了一个响应冷胁迫而激活的复杂分子网络。
