Abstract
Drought is one of the major constraints limiting chickpea productivity. To unravel complex mechanisms regulating drought response in chickpea, we generated transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics datasets from root tissues of four contrasting drought-responsive chickpea genotypes: ICC 4958, JG 11, and JG 11+ (drought-tolerant), and ICC 1882 (drought-sensitive) under control and drought stress conditions. Integration of transcriptomics and proteomics data identified enriched hub proteins encoding isoflavone 4′-O-methyltransferase, UDP-d-glucose/UDP-d-galactose 4-epimerase, and delta-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase. These proteins highlighted the involvement of pathways such as antibiotic biosynthesis, galactose metabolism, and isoflavonoid biosynthesis in activating drought stress response mechanisms. Subsequently, the integration of metabolomics data identified six metabolites (fructose, galactose, glucose, myoinositol, galactinol, and raffinose) that showed a significant correlation with galactose metabolism. Integration of root-omics data also revealed some key candidate genes underlying the drought-responsive “QTL-hotspot” region. These results provided key insights into complex molecular mechanisms underlying drought stress response in chickpea.
Core Ideas
• Multi-omics analysis of chickpea roots revealed complex molecular mechanisms underpinning drought stress response.
• Integration of transcriptome and proteome data uncovered hub proteins involved in drought stress response pathways.
• Metabolomic profiling identified six metabolites showing a significant correlation with galactose metabolism.
• Transcriptome-proteome integration revealed prominent differential expression of key genes underlying the “QTL-hotspot” region.
