摘要: Leymus chinensisis a perennial rhizome grass that has diverse environmental adaptations. Late embryogenesis-abundant (LEA) proteins play important roles in abiotic stress response processes involved in the protection of macromolecules and cellular structures. Here, 22LcLEAgenes were identified using transcriptome data and classified into six groups based on phylogenetic analyses. The conserved motifs varied among the different protein groups. Among the dehydrin (DHN) group, four LcDHNs contained Y-, K- and S-segments, one LcDHN contained S- and K-segments, and one LcDHN contained only K-segments. Expression profiles indicated that 21LcLEAs had altered expression levels in response to water-deficit stress, and the sixLcDHNs were remarkably induced by drought treatments, with higher transcript accumulations in root than in shoot, implying that theLcDHNgenes play important roles inL. chinensisdefenses against water-deficit conditions. These results provide valuable information on LcLEAs' roles in functional response mechanisms to water-deficit stress and indicate their potential applications in improving drought stress tolerance inL. chinensis.
