Zusammenfassung: | Copyright © 2024 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved. Basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors play various important roles in plant growth and development. In this study, a AabHLH48 was identified in the floral organ of Adonis amurensis, a perennial herb that can naturally complete flowering at extreme low temperatures. AabHLH48 was widely expressed in various tissues or organs of A. amurensis and was localized in the nucleus. Overexpression of AabHLH48 promotes early flowering in Arabidopsis under both photoperiod (12 h light/12 h dark and 16 h light/8 h dark) and temperature (22 and 18 °C) conditions. Transcriptome sequencing combined with quantitative real-time PCR analysis showed that overexpression of AabHLH48 caused a general upregulation of genes involved in floral development in Arabidopsis, especially for AtAGAMOUS-LIKE 8/FRUITFULL (AtAGL8/FUL). The yeast one-hybrid assay revealed that AabHLH48 has transcriptional activating activity and can directly bind to the promoter region of AtAGL8/FUL. These results suggest that the overexpression of AabHLH48 promoting early flowering in Arabidopsis is associated with the upregulated expression of AtAGL8/FUL activated by AabHLH48. This indicates that AabHLH48 can serve as an important genetic resource for improving flowering-time control in other ornamental plants or crops |
