[Objective] BBX (B-Box), as one of the subfamilies of zinc finger transcription factors, is widely involved in the plant growth and development process. To reveal the genetic characteristics and potential functions of the kiwifruit BBX family. [Method] The kiwifruit BBX gene family was identified at the whole genome level. And the protein physicochemical properties, subcellular localizations, systemic developmental characteristics, conserved protein domains, and homologous characteristics were analyzed. Meanwhile, the expression patterns in different tissues and different storage treatments were analyzed. [Result] A total of 48 AcBBX genes were unevenly distributed across 22 chromosomes. The amino acid length of AcBBXs was 126-515 aa, protein molecular weight was 14 172.09-57 905.84 Da, and four subcellular localizations were predicted. There were 0 to 4 introns in AcBBX family. AcBBX promoters contained various cis-acting elements involved in light responsiveness, plant hormone regulatory, biotic and abiotic stress regulatory, growth and development regulatory. Combined the evolutionary tree with conserved domains, they could be clustered into five groups, and gene tandem duplication and fragment replication were the main reasons for the expansion of family members. The expressions of AcBBXs varied in different organs of kiwifruit. Seven AcBBX members had higher expressions in the mature fruits compared to other parts, 3 members having higher expressions in the young fruits, 7 members having higher expressions in the leaves, and 3 members having higher expressions in the flowers. During the post-harvest storage of fruits, 3 members were upregulated by exogenous hormones and higher than other processing groups, while 6 members were upregulated after one week of storage at room temperature and higher than other processing groups. During 4℃ storage of fruits, 10 members were upregulated, while 5 members were downregulated. [Conclusion] This study reveals the transcriptional characteristics of different members of the kiwifruit AcBBX family during its growth, development, and post-harvest storages, laying the foundation for subsequent functional verification of the AcBBX gene.

In order to understand the diversity of endophytic bacteria community in different tissues of Pyracantha fortuneana, the 16S rRNA V5-V7 variable region of endophytic bacteria in P. fortuneana was sequenced by high-throughput sequencing technology, and the diversity of endophytic bacteria community in different tissue parts of P. fortuneana was analyzed. The results were as follows: (1) A total of 1 818 endophytic bacteria OTU were obtained, in which 754 endophytic bacteria were from root, 308 from stem and 756 from leaf, and with a total of 152 OTU. (2) Species classification showed that endophytic bacteria in different P. fortuneana tissues had abundant community diversities, and the endophytic bacteria in root belonged to 557 species, 373 genera, 216 families, 137 orders, 53 classes, 23 phyla, Allorhizobium-Neorhizobium-Pararhizobium-Rhizobium and Streptomyces were the dominant genera, and their relative abundance was 10.57% and 8.00%, respectively. The endophytic bacteria in stem belonged to 270 species, 204 genera, 126 families, 76 orders, 32 classes, 21 phyla, Massilia and unclassified_f_Comamonadaceae were the dominant genera, and their relative abundance was 31.10% and 12.82%, respectively.

(3) PICRUSt function prediction analysis showed that the species richness of root endophytic bacteria involved in te regulation of various metabolic pathways was the highest. These results provide a reference for endophytic bacteria functions and exploiting new beneficial microbial resources.

【Objective】The study aimed to explore the bacterial community and diversity among the different tissues and rhizosphere soil of Dracocephalum tanguticum.【Method】The high throughput sequencing technology was use to sequence the region V5-V7 of endophytic and rhizosphere bacteria 16S rRNA gene from D. tanguticum, and the community composition and diversity were analyzed by bioinformatics. 【Result】A total of 2351 OTUs were obtained, which individually belonged to 570 genera, 319 families, 191 orders, 76 classes and 29 phyla, and the diversity index of DtS was significantly the highest, while that was the lowest in the DtR; Actinobacteriota and Proteobacteria were the dominant phyla in all samples of D. tanguticum; Bacillus and Solirubrobacter were the dominant genera in DtS and DtL, Solirubrobacter and Actinoplanes were the dominant genera in the DtR, while Solirubrobacter and Gaiella were the dominant genera in the DtRS; It could be seen that bacterial community composition of DtS was more similar with DtL, bacterial community composition of DtR and DtRS were more similar. PICRUSt function prediction analysis showed that the function of bacteria in different tissues and rhizosphere soil of D. tanguticum were mainly involved in the biosynthesis of flavonoids, flavonoid glycosides and terpenes etc.【Conclusion】The bacteria in different tissues and rhizosphere soil of D. tanguticum had rich community and functional diversity, and some of the dominant bacteria had potential functional value, which provided a theoretical basis for the development and utilization of beneficial microbial resources of D. tanguticum.

The root of Kadsura coccinea is a commonly used herb in traditional Chinese medicine, and flavonoids are one of the main active constituents of medicinal plants. This study intended to investigate whether the leaves and stems of K. coccinea plants may contain similar or highly enriched flavonoids in roots and to explore its application value. Widely-targeted metabolomics was used to identify the compounds in different organs of K. coccinea. According to their structural distribution and categories, the diversity and abundance of flavonoids were analyzed. The results were as follows:(1)The number of flavonoids metabolites in K. coccinea was sorted in descending order as leaf(80)> stem(73)> root(67), and a total of 61 flavonoids were the same in three parts. Leaves and stems contained more flavonols, contributing to a diversity of flavonoids greater than that in the roots.(2)Flavonols, flavonoids, flavanols, and chalcones were highly accumulated in the three parts. Among them, the accumulation of flavonols and flavonoids was lower in the stems and roots, resulting in a continuously, substantially decreasing abundance of flavonoids from leaf(24.00 × 107)to stem(13.45 × 107)to root(9.05 × 107).(3)Leaves and stems of K. coccinea contained a large amount of flavonoids that were also found in the roots and a variety of those not found in the roots, which could be considered for alternative or complementary use. Catechins highly expressed in all three parts, and the leaves were also rich in quercetin and its derivatives, which were highly valuable in application. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
