TL;DR
This study identifies and analyzes HD-ZIP IV genes in patchouli, linking them to glandular hair development and hormone responses.
Contribution
The study provides the first genome-wide analysis of HD-ZIP IV genes in Pogostemon cablin and identifies their role in glandular trichome development.
Findings
38 HD-ZIP IV genes were identified and classified into six subfamilies in patchouli.
PcHDZIV5 expression correlates with glandular trichome density and promotes trichome development.
HD-ZIP IV genes show dynamic responses to hormone treatments like MeJA, IAA, and SA.
Abstract
HD-ZIP IV transcription factors are a plant-specific subgroup of the homeodomain-leucine zipper (HD-ZIP) family, known to regulate epidermal cell differentiation. While their functions have been studied in many plant species, their roles in Pogostemon cablin (patchouli) remain largely unexplored. We conducted a comprehensive genome-wide identification and analysis of HD-ZIP IV genes in patchouli. Phylogenetic relationships, gene structures, conserved motifs, and promoter cis-elements were examined. Expression patterns under hormone treatments were analyzed using qRT-PCR. Correlation analyses and virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) were employed to assess gene function in glandular trichome development. A total of 38 HD-ZIP IV genes (PcHDZIV1–PcHDZIV38) were identified and classified into six subfamilies. Gene structure and motif analyses revealed conserved features within subgroups.…
