摘要: Key message The bHLH transcription factor, PPLS1, interacts with SiMYB85 to control the color of pulvinus and leaf sheath by regulating anthocyanin biosynthesis in foxtail millet (Setaria italica). Foxtail millet (Setaria italica), a self-pollinated crop with numerous small florets, is difficult for cross-pollination. The color of pulvinus and leaf sheath with purple being dominant to green is an indicative character and often used for screening authentic hybrids in foxtail millet crossing. Deciphering molecular mechanism controlling this trait would greatly facilitate genetic improvement of cultivars in foxtail millet. Here, using the F-2 bulk specific-locus amplified fragment sequencing approach, we mapped the putative causal gene for the purple color of pulvinus and leaf sheath (PPLS) trait to a 100 Kb region on chromosome 7. Expression analyses of the 15 genes in this region revealed that Seita.7G195400 (renamed here as PPLS1) was differentially expressed between purple and green cultivars. PPLS1 encodes a bHLH transcription factor and is localized in the nucleus with a transactivation activity. Furthermore, we observed that expression of a MYB transcription factor gene, SiMYB85 (Seita.4G086300) involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis, shows a totally positive association with that of PPLS1. Heterologous co-expression of both PPLS1 and SiMYB85 in tobacco leaves led to elevated anthocyanin accumulation and expression of some anthocyanin-related genes. Furthermore, PPLS1 physically interacts with SiMYB85. Taken together, our results suggest that PPLS1 interacts with SiMYB85 to control the color of pulvinus and leaf sheath by regulating anthocyanin biosynthesis in foxtail millet.
