摘要: The polyploid genome of cotton has significantly increased the transcript complexity. Recent advances in full-length transcript sequencing are now widely used to characterize the complete landscape of transcriptional events. Such studies in cotton can help us to explore the genetic mechanisms of the cotton seedling growth. Through long-read single-molecule RNA sequencing, this study compared the transcriptomes of three yield contrasting genotypes of upland cotton. Our analysis identified different numbers of spliced isoforms from 31,166, 28,716, and 28,713 genes in SJ48, Z98, and DT8 cotton genotypes, respectively, most of which were novel compared to previous cotton reference transcriptomes, and showed significant differences in the number of exon structures and coding sequence length due to intron retention. Quantification of isoform expression revealed significant differences in expression in the root and leaf of each genotype. An array of key isoform target genes showed protein kinase or phosphorylation functions, and their protein interaction network contained most of the circadian oscillator proteins. Spliced isoforms from the GIGANTEA (GI) protien were differentially regulated in each genotype and might be expected to regulate translational activities, including the sequence and function of target proteins. In addition, these spliced isoforms generate diurnal expression profiles in cotton leaves, which may alter the transcriptional regulatory network of seedling growth. Silencing of the novel spliced GI isoform Gh_A02G0645_N17 significantly affected biomass traits, contributed to variable growth, and increased transcription of the early flowering pathway gene ELF in cotton. Our high-throughput hybrid sequencing results will be useful to dissect functional differences among spliced isoforms in the polyploid cotton genome.
