摘要： Uneven germination is still a common problem in sweet maize planting. The mesocotyl is a key driver for ground-breaking sweet maize, and deep-sowing has a longer mesocotyl. However, the physiological and molecular mechanisms of sweet maize mesocotyl elongation in response to deep-sowing remain unknown. Here we found that sweet maize inbred line Ltx05 could obtain longer mesocotyls in deep soil of 10 cm depth, and that 20 mg/L GA(3) was the optimal concentration to promote mesocotyl elongation and seedling emergence. Microstructure observation showed that the longitudinal cell length of mesocotyl at 10 cm sowing depth was significantly longer than that of 1 cm. Transcriptome analysis showed that microtubule process related differentially expressed genes may contribute to the longitudinal cell elongation. The content of GAs in the mesocotyl at 10 cm sowing depth was markedly higher than that of 1 cm. Combining transcriptome data and qRT-PCR at different developmental stages, ZmGA20ox1, ZmGA20ox4 and ZmGA20ox5 were identified as three positive regulation candidate genes during mesocotyl elongation under deep-sowing conditions, and this was further confirmed by the significant elongation of the hypocotyl in heterologous transformation of Arabidopsis thaliana. These results lay a foundation for improving the ability of sweet maize to tolerate deep-sowing stress and improving the breeding of excellent deep-sowing-tolerant germplasms.
