Description
Yue Yang and colleagues catalogue a family of growth-regulating genes in a Chinese lily, in a 2026 genome study. The bHLH transcription factors steer plant development, hormone signals, and stress responses. Lilium davidii variety unicolor is valued in China for food and medicine, yet its family had never been mapped.
Two hundred fourteen genes were found in the genome and sorted into twenty-three subfamilies. Duplicated gene pairs were few, suggesting limited large-scale expansion of the family. Many genes switched on briefly under hormone or stress treatment, with a few responding strongly to salt or abscisic acid. Four genes were confirmed to support salt tolerance, offering breeding targets for hardier lilies.
