Abstract Real-Time quantitative RT-PCR technique is a sensitive method for measuring the accumulation of gene transcripts. This widely used technique in a variety of plant species; including rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) must meet basic criteria in order to produce accurate gene expression markers. Gene expression markers associated to the response of ethephon stimulation such as the Hevea brasiliensis Ethylene Response Factors (HbERFs) family has been characterized in a single rubber clone. It is known that the effect of genotype on rubber tree clones can give different expression of the same gene. This difference can be converted into a profile that characterizes clones to a certain trait. This study aimed to identify gene expression profile in response to ethephon stimulation using six HbERFs (HbORA47, HbRAP2.3, HbERF12, HbERF3, HbABR1, HbRRTF1) in three rubber tree clones having contrasted latex metabolism (PB 260, SP 217, and RRIM 600). Total RNA was isolated from 18 samples and used for cDNA synthesis. The quality of cDNAs was examined by PCR using HbActin primer. HbRH2b was selected among the 11 housekeeping genes to be used as an internal control in gene expression analysis. Gene expression analysis resulted to an induction and inhibition of  HbERFs by ethephon stimulation which are specific to a particular clone. Expression profile of three Hevea clones showed distinct characteristics. The high latex metabolism clone PB 260 was characterized by the upregulated expression of  HbRAP2.3 and HbERF12. The low latex metabolism clone SP 217 was characterized by the upregulated expression of HbRAP2.3 and HbRRTF1. Meanwhile, the profile of intermediate latex metabolism clone RRIM 600 was shown by downregulated expression of HbORA47 and up-regulated expression of HbABR1. This study shows that HbERFs gene family is an important expression marker because it can inform physiological conditions of rubber clones associated in response to ethephon. AbstrakTeknik Real-Time quantitative RT-PCR merupakan metode sensitif untuk mengukur akumulasi transkrip dari gen.

Hasil dari analisis ekspresi gen menunjukkan bahwa stimulasi ethephon memiliki efek induksi dan inhibisi gen yang spesifik untuk klon tertentu. Profil ekspresi dari tiga klon tanaman karet yang diuji memperlihatkan perbedaan karakteristik. Klon metabolisme tinggi PB 260 ditunjukkan dengan ekspresi positif dari gen HbRAP2.3 dan HbERF12. Klon meta-bolisme rendah SP 217 ditunjukkan oleh ekspresi positif gen HbRAP2.3 dan HbRRTF1. Sedangkan klon metabo-lisme intermedier RRIM 600 memiliki profil ekspresi negatif dari HbORA47 dan ekspresi positif dari HbABR1. Penelitian ini memperlihatkan bahwa famili gen HbERFs merupakan marka ekspresi yang penting karena dapat menginformasikan kondisi fisiologis klon tanaman karet terkait respons terhadap ethephon.

Given the importance of wood in many industrial applications, much research has focused on wood formation, especially lignin biosynthesis. However, the mechanisms governing the regulation of lignin biosynthesis in the rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) remain to be elucidated. Here, we gained insight into the mechanisms of rubber tree lignin biosynthesis using reaction wood (wood with abnormal tissue structure induced by gravity or artificial mechanical treatment) as an experimental model. We performed transcriptome analysis of rubber tree mature xylem from tension wood (TW), opposite wood (OW), and normal wood (NW) using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). A total of 214, 1,280, and 32 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in TW vs. NW, OW vs. NW, and TW vs. OW, respectively. GO and KEGG enrichment analysis of DEGs from different comparison groups showed that zeatin biosynthesis, plant hormone signal transduction, phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, and plant–pathogen interaction pathways may play important roles in reaction wood formation. Sixteen transcripts involved in phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and 129 transcripts encoding transcription factors (TFs) were used to construct a TF–gene regulatory network for rubber tree lignin biosynthesis. Among them, MYB, C2H2, and NAC TFs could regulate all the DEGs involved in phenylpropanoid biosynthesis. Overall, this study identified candidate genes and TFs likely involved in phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and provides novel insights into the mechanisms regulating rubber tree lignin biosynthesis.
