TRANSCRIPTOME AND PROTEOMICS INTERACTION REVEALS LOW SEED GERMINATION OF CYCLOBALNOPSIS GILVA TO SAVE FOREST ECOLOGY

Tree species display wide range of heterogeneity in their size, type, dormancy and growth of seed. Data about variation in germination under natural conditions and tree growth in connection with mentioned attributes is of immense value to understand tree distribution and forest stand management. Studies dealing with tree seed germination can enable successful nursery operations and healthy seedling production. This may also increase the seedlings' establishment in the forest restoration activities on destructed sites through native plant species. Successful germination is not only critical for plantlet establishment but also necessary for crop yield. As seed detaches from mother plant it desiccates continuously and selects suitable environment for germination activity. To understand the low germination rate in Cyclobalnopsis gilva molecular aspects of germination has been elucidated well with the integrated studies of proteomic, transcriptomic molecular biology. In this review, common and different aspects of seed germination including metabolic activation, transcription and translation regulation, have been discussed. This review will help to understand the transcriptomic and proteomic interaction of C. gilva which will be helpful to save the forest ecology and solve the problem of woody plants with low germination rate all over the world.
