摘要： Luffa is a kind of melon crop widely cultivated in temperate regions worldwide. Browning is one of the serious factors affecting the quality of Luffa. Therefore, the molecular mechanism of Luffa browning is of great significance to study. However, the molecular diversity of Luffa cultivars with different browning-resistant abilities has not been well elucidated. In our study, we used high-throughput sequencing to determine the transcriptome of two Luffa cylindrica cultivars '2D-2' and '35D-7'. A total of 115,099 unigenes were clustered, of which 22,607 were differentially expression genes (DEGs). Of these DEGs, 65 encoding polyphenol oxidase, peroxidase, or ascorbate peroxidase were further analyzed. The quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) data indicated that the expression levels of the LcPPO gene (Accession No.: Cluster-21832.13892) was significantly higher in '35D-7' compared with that in '2D-2'. Several POD genes (Accession No.: Cluster-21832.19847, Cluster-21832.30619 and Cluster-48491.2) were also upregulated. Analysis of the plantTFDB database indicated that some transcription factors such as WRKY gene family may also participate in the regulation of Luffa browning. The results indicated that the divergence of genes expression related to enzymatic reaction may lead to the different browning resistances of Luffa. Our study will provide a theoretical basis for breeding of browning-resistant Luffa.
