Significance This is a significant sister group contrast comparative study of the underpinning genomics and evolution of desiccation tolerance (DT), a critical trait in the evolution of land plants. Our results revealed that the DT grass Sporobolus stapfianus is transcriptionally primed to tolerate a dehydration/desiccation event and that the desiccation response in the DT S. stapfianus is distinct from the water stress response of the desiccation-sensitive Sporobolus pyramidalis . Our results also show that the desiccation response is largely unique, indicating a recent evolution of this trait within the angiosperms, and that inhibition of senescence during dehydration is likely critical in rendering a plant desiccation tolerant. |
