摘要: Agave angustifolia is an important crassulacean acid metabolism plant species, with wide applications in beverage and sisal fiber production. In this study, we carried out a transcriptome analysis of A. angustifolia leaves, generating a total of 58,482,436 clean reads through Illumina paired-end sequencing. De novo transcriptome assembly generated 67,314 unigenes, with about half of them having homologs in four public databases. In the Nr database, Asparagus officinalis was shown to be most closely related to agave, and the early angiosperm Amborella trichopoda was selected as an outgroup species. We further identified five, two, seven, seven, seven, six and six CAD genes in asparagus, amborella, A. deserti, A. tequilana, A. americana, A. hybrid H11648 and A. angustifolia, respectively. The maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree revealed the species-specific expansion of CAD genes in arabidopsis, rice and agave. The expression analysis indicated the conservatively expressed CAD1/2/4/6, providing candidate targets for manipulation to improve lignin traits. The species-specific expression of CAD3/5/7 indicates the existence of different regulatory mechanisms controlling the expression of these genes in agave species. This study presents the first transcriptome dataset of A. angustifolia, facilitating future studies on lignin biosynthesis in agave.
