摘要: Somatic embryogenesis (SE) is a more rapid and controllable method for plant propagation than traditional breeding methods. However, it often suffers from limited efficiency. SERK1 promotes SE in several plants, including pineapple (Ananas comosus L.). We investigate the embryonic cell-specific transcriptional regulation of AcSERK1 by methylation analysis of CpG islands in AcSERK1 regulatory sequences. This revealed differences in the methylation status of CpG islands between embryonic callus and non-embryonic callus; the methylation inhibitor 5-azaC increased AcSERK1 expression and also accelerated SE. These findings indicate that the expression of AcSERK1 is regulated epigenetically. This study lays the foundation for further analysis of epigenetic regulatory mechanisms that may enhance the efficiency of SE in pineapple and other plants.
