Abstract
Drought is a major abiotic stress factor that reduces agricultural productivity. Understanding the molecular regulatory network of drought response in winter rape is of great significance for molecular Brassica rapa. In order to comprehensively analyze the network expression of DEGs and DEMIs in winter rape under drought stress, in this study we used Longyou 7 as the experimental material to identify DEGs and DEMIs related to drought stress by transcriptome and miRNA sequencing. A total of 14-15 key differential mRNA genes related to drought stress and biological stress were screened out under different treatments in the three groups. and 32 differential miRNAs were identified through targeted regulatory relationships, and the mRNA expression of 20 target genes was negatively regulated by the targeting regulatory relationship. It is mainly enriched in starch and sucrose metabolism, carbon metabolism and other pathways. Among them, gra-MIR8731-p3_2ss13GA18GA regulated the expression of multiple mRNAs in the three treatments. miRNA is mainly involved in the drought resistance of Chinese cabbage winter rape by regulating the expression of target genes, such as starch and sucrose metabolism, amino acid biosynthesis, and carbon metabolism. These miRNAs and their target genes play an indispensable role in winter rapeseed drought stress tolerance regulation.
