Indeed, the shoot can grow as long as 1 m within 24 hrs and reaches a final height of 5–20 m in 45 to 60 days 2.

It is one of the most important non-timber forest resources in south-eastern China because of its striking shoot growth rate. Moso bamboo is a perennial plant characterized by its woody culm and a prolonged vegetative phase that lasts for decades before flowering 1. Moso bamboo belongs to the monophyletic Bambusoideae, Ehrhartoideae, Pooideae (BEP) clade of the grass family (Poaceae). Moso bamboo ( Phyllostachys edulis) is a large, woody bamboo with the highest ecological, economic, and cultural value of all bamboo types and accounts for 70% of the total cultivated bamboo worldwide 1.

Our study provides a theoretical foundation and some experimental evidence for further functional verification of the PheWRKY family of TFs. PheWRKY72-2 may enhance plant tolerance to stress by functioning as a positive regulator of stoma closure. The overexpression of PheWRKY72-2 in Arabidopsis resulted in a decreased sensitivity to drought stress during early seedling growth. Expression analysis based on quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) data revealed that a large number of PheWRKY genes varied significantly under cold or drought stress treatments, which could be defined as abiotic stress-responsive genes. Estimation of the divergence time of paralogous gene pairs revealed an important role of the recent whole-genome duplication in the expansion of the WRKY family. Here, we identified 121 WRKY TFs in moso bamboo, including five novel members that were not annotated in the Phyllostachys edulis genomic database. The WRKY family of transcription factors (TFs) is one of the ten largest families of TFs in higher plants and has been implicated in multiple biological processes.
