Abstract

Trehalose (a-D-glucopyranosyl a-D-glucopyranoside) is a nonreducing disaccharide and is widely distributed in bacteria, fungi, algae, plants and invertebrates. In the study, the identification of trehalose-6-phosphate synthase (TPS) genes stress-related in cotton, and the genetic structure analysis and molecular evolution analysis of TPSs were conducted with bioinformatics methods, which could lay a foundation for further research of TPS functions in cotton. The genome information of Gossypium raimondii (group D), G. arboreum L. (group A), and G. hirsutum L. (group AD) was used in the study. Fifty-three TPSs were identified comprising 15 genes in group D, 14 in group A, and 24 in group AD. Bioinformatics methods were used to analyze the genetic structure and molecular evolution of TPSs. Real-time PCR analysis was performed to investigate the expression patterns of gene family members. All TPS family members in cotton can be divided into two subfamilies: Class I and Class II. The similarity of the TPS sequence is high within the same species and close within their family relatives. The genetic structures of two TPS subfamily members are different, with more introns and a more complicated gene structure in Class I. There is a TPS domain(Glyco transf_20) at the N-terminal in all TPS family members and a TPP domain(Trehalose_PPase) at the C-terminal in all except GrTPS6, GhTPS4, and GhTPS9. All Class II members contain a UDP-forming domain. The responses to environmental stresses showed that stresses could induce the expression of TPSs but the expression patterns vary with different stresses. The distribution of TPSs varies with different species but is relatively uniform on chromosomes. Genetic structure varies with different gene members, and expression levels vary with different stresses and exhibit tissue specificity. The upregulated genes in upland cotton TM-1 is significantly more than that in G. raimondii and G. arboreum L. Shixiya 1.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 March 2016.
All research outputs
#20,656,820
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from BMC Genomic Data
#861
of 1,204 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#234,341
of 315,378 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Genomic Data
#20
of 29 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,204 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.3. This one is in the 16th percentile – i.e., 16% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 315,378 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 13th percentile – i.e., 13% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 29 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 17th percentile – i.e., 17% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
