摘要： In eukaryotic photosynthetic organisms, chloroplast is not only a site for photosynthesis, but it also have a vital role in signal transduction mechanisms. Plants exhibit various colors in nature with various mutants induced by EMS, whose traits are regulated by developmental and environmental factors, making them ideal for studying the regulation of chloroplast development. In this study, the cotton leaf variegated mutant (VAR) induced by EMS was used for this experiment. Genetic analysis revealed that VAR phenotype was a dominant mutation and by performing freehand section inspection, it was noticed that the vascular bundles of VAR were smaller. Chloro-plast ultrastructure showed that the stacking of grana thylakoid was thinner and the starch granules were increased significantly in VAR comparedto wild type (WT). Transcriptome analysis found that the KEGG was enriched in photosynthesis pathway, and GO was abundant in zinc ion transmembrane transport, electron transporter and cation binding terms. In addition, GhFTSH5 expression in VAR was significantly higher than WT and the promoter sequence of GhFTSH5 had differences. The results showed that the VAR plant had altered GhFTSH5 expression and disrupted chloroplast structure, which in turn affects plant photosynthesis. More importantly, this study lays a foundation for further analyzing molecular mechanism of cotton variegated phenotypes.
