Among its numerous germplasm resources, some possess superior drought resistance. In this study, we firstly investigated the physiological differences between the leaves of drought-tolerant (DT) and drought-sensitive (DS) genotypes under different field water contents (FWC) in soil culture. The results showed that, under drought stress, DT maintained a lower leaf water potential for water absorption, sustained higher photosynthetic efficiency, and reduced oxidative damage in leaves by efficiently maintaining the ascorbic acid-glutathione (ASA-GSH) cycle to scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS) compared to DS. Secondly, using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), we analyzed the gene expression profiles of DT and DS leaves under osmotic stress of hydroponics induced by PEG-6000. Through differential analysis, we identified 1226 candidate unigenes, from which we subsequently screened out 115/212 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) that were more quickly induced/reduced in DT than in DS under osmotic stress. Among them, Unigene0005863 (EsSnRK2), Unigene0053902 (EsLRK10) and Unigene0031985 (EsCIPK5) may be involved in stomatal closure induced by abscisic acid (ABA) signaling pathway. Unigene0047636 (EsCER1) may positively regulates the synthesis of very-long-chain (VLC) alkanes in cuticular wax biosynthesis, influencing plant responses to abiotic stresses. Finally, the contents of wax and cutin were measured by GC-MS under osmotic stress of hydroponics induced by PEG-6000. Corresponding to RNA-seq, contents of wax monomers, especially alkanes and alcohols, showed significant induction by osmotic stress in DT but not in DS. It is suggested that limiting stomatal and cuticle transpiration under drought stress to maintain higher photosynthetic efficiency and water use efficiency (WUE) is one of the critical mechanisms that confer stronger drought resistance to DT. This study provides some insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying drought tolerance in E. sibiricus. The identified genes may provide a foundation for the selection and breeding of drought-tolerant crops.","tracks":[{"project":"NCBITAXON","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":127,"end":143},"obj":"OrganismTaxon"},{"id":"T2","span":{"begin":164,"end":180},"obj":"OrganismTaxon"}],"attributes":[{"id":"A1","pred":"db_id","subj":"T1","obj":"52830"},{"id":"A2","pred":"db_id","subj":"T2","obj":"52830"},{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"NCBITAXON"},{"subj":"T2","pred":"source","obj":"NCBITAXON"}]},{"project":"Anatomy-MAT","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":1949,"end":1956},"obj":"Body_part"}],"attributes":[{"id":"A1","pred":"mat_id","subj":"T1","obj":"http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/MAT_0000150"},{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"Anatomy-MAT"}]},{"project":"Anatomy-UBERON","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":1949,"end":1956},"obj":"Body_part"}],"attributes":[{"id":"A1","pred":"uberon_id","subj":"T1","obj":"http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/UBERON_0001001"},{"id":"A2","pred":"uberon_id","subj":"T1","obj":"http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/UBERON_0001002"},{"id":"A3","pred":"uberon_id","subj":"T1","obj":"http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/UBERON_0004882"},{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"Anatomy-UBERON"}]}],"config":{"attribute types":[{"pred":"source","value type":"selection","values":[{"id":"NCBITAXON","color":"#bf93ec","default":true},{"id":"Anatomy-MAT","color":"#93eca5"},{"id":"Anatomy-UBERON","color":"#ec939b"}]}]}}
