Abstrakt: Hypergravity is a condition where the force of gravity exceeds that on the surface of the Earth and can be simulated by centrifugation. Previously, a significant increase in root growth phenotype was observed when wheat seeds were exposed to hypergravity (10 g for 12 h). In the present study, we investigated the molecular basis of this change through root transcriptome. The data revealed a total of 3765 up-regulated and 2102 down-regulated transcripts in response to hypergravity. GO enrichment analysis revealed hormonal responses, cell division, and cell-wall-related terms were significantly enriched in hypergravity. The increased isoform level expression of transcripts involved in auxin biosynthesis, transport, and signaling was observed. Further, enhanced expression of cell division transcripts and down-regulation of cell number regulator genes suggests rapid cell division. Overexpression of cellulose and hemicellulose biosynthesis transcripts suggests demand for cell-wall constituents. Collectively, this study identified candidate genes associated with hypergravity-induced enhanced root growth.
