摘要： Duckweed is a simple aquatic floating plant having great potential in sewage treatment and bioenergy production. Duckweed rarely flowers in nature, which greatly limits its germplasm collection, conservation, and heterosis usage. Salicylic acid (SA) can efficiently induce flowering of duckweed (e.g., Lemnagibba); however, the related genes and regulatory networks remain unclear. In this work, we demonstrated that L. gibba flowering induced by SA was photoperiod-dependent, stress-involved, and abscisic acid (ABA)-disrupted. Totally 202, 78, and 413 differentially expressed (DE) genes were up-regulated, while 429, 72, and 307 were down-regulated at flower induction, flower initiation, and flowering stages, respectively. At the flower induction stage, the downregulated genes were mainly involved in cell wall, auxin and ABA, light reaction, and abiotic stress, while the upregulated genes were involved in development, brassinosteroid, major CHO metabolism, and redox. At the flower initiation stage, the down-regulated genes were enriched in light reaction and lipid metabolism, whereas the upregulated genes were enriched in starch degradation and Ca2+ signaling. At the flowering stage, the downregulated genes were significantly enriched in photosynthesis, gibberellic acid, starch synthesis, nitrogen metabolism, and redox, while the up-regulated genes were enriched in cell wall, jasmonic acid, secondary metabolism, and Ca2+ signaling. Besides, 46 transcription factors and 13 flowering-related DE genes were identified. Finally, a possible floral pathway, where LgTEMI, LgSVP, and LgET1 might play critical roles in SA-induced flowering in L. gibba, was discussed. These findings provide a useful foundation for further investigation of genes and regulatory networks of SA-induced flowering in duckweed.
