Abstract

Strawberry plants require light for growth, but the frequent occurrence of low-light weather in winter can lead to a decrease in the photosynthetic rate (Pn) of strawberry plants. Light-emitting diode (LED) systems could be used to increase Pn. However, the changes in the phytohormones and transcriptomic reprogramming in strawberry leaves under different light qualities are still unclear. In this study, we treated strawberry plants with sunlight, sunlight covered with a 50% sunshade net, no light, blue light (460 nm), red light (660 nm), and a 50% red/50% blue LED light combination for 3 days and 7 days. Our results revealed that the light quality has an effect on the contents of Chl a and Chl b, the minimal fluorescence (F0), and the Pn of strawberry plants. The light quality also affected the contents of abscisic acid (ABA), auxin (IAA), trans-zeatin-riboside (tZ), jasmonic acid (JA), and salicylic acid (SA). RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) revealed that differentially expressed genes (DEGs) are significantly enriched in photosynthesis antenna proteins, photosynthesis, carbon fixation in photosynthetic organisms, porphyrin and chlorophyll metabolisms, carotenoid biosynthesis, tryptophan metabolism, phenylalanine metabolism, zeatin biosynthesis, and linolenic acid metabolism. We then selected the key DEGs based on the results of a weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and drew nine metabolic heatmaps and protein–protein interaction networks to map light regulation.
