Key Message: The cytokinin pathway promotes the initiation of bulbil formation, and iPA may an important type of cytokinin during bulbil formation in Lilium lancifolium. Bulbils are important vegetative reproductive organs in triploid Lilium lancifolium. We previously showed that cytokinins are involved in bulbil formation, but how cytokinins participate in bulbil formation is not clear. In this study, bulbil formation was divided into three stages on the basis of anatomical and histological observations: the bulbil initiation stage, bulbil primordium-formation stage and bulbil structure-formation stage. The results indicated that iPA was the most critical cytokinin during the bulbil initiation. qRT-PCR revealed that increased iPA content during bulbil initiation was mainly due to increased expression of cytokinin synthesis genes (IPT1/5) and cytokinin activation genes (LOG1/3/5/7) and significantly decreased expression of the cytokinin degradation gene CKX4. Exogenous 6-BA and lovastatin affected the cytokinin pathway and promoted or inhibited bulbil initiation by increasing or decreasing the content of endogenous iPA, respectively. In summary, we demonstrate that cytokinins positively regulate bulbil formation and provide preliminary insight into the regulatory mechanisms by which the cytokinin pathway promotes bulbil initiation. |
