海草生长的影响因素及组学技术研究进展

Research progress on affecting factors of seagrass growth and application of omics technology

由于全球气候变化以及人类活动干扰,目前全球海草普遍处于衰退状态。近年来,组学技术逐渐应用于海草生态学的相关研究,为阐明海草应对外界胁迫等环境变化的分子机制奠定了技术基础。该文总结了温度、光照和营养盐等影响海草生长的主要因素,综述了基因组学、转录组学和蛋白组学等分子生物学技术在海草响应温度、光照和盐度胁迫等方面的研究进展。虽然目前组学技术在海草生态学中的研究尚处于起步阶段,其在海草-微生物相互作用、分子标记开发方面的应用具有巨大的潜力并将是未来研究的热点。

Global seagrasses are now under a decline status due to the global climate change and the human activity disturbance. In recent years,omics technology has been gradually applied in the field of seagrass ecology research,which has lied the foundation for elucidating the molecular mechanism of seagrasses to cope with environment change such as external stress. This paper summarized the main factors affecting the growth of seagrasses,including temperature,light and nutrients,as well as reviewed the research progress of omics technology( e. g. genomics,transcriptomics and proteomics) in the aspect of seagrass response to thermal,light and salinity stress. Although Omics technology application in seagrass ecology research is still in its infancy,it has great application potential in seagrass-microbiota interaction,developing molecular markers,which will be the hot spot areas in the future.
