(Submitter supplied) Our previous studies have shown that exogenous ethylene (ETH) may induce plant adventitious root development in cucumber. In this study, transcriptome technique was used to explore the key genes in ETH-induced rooting. The results revealed that ETH regulated 1415 diferentially expressed genes (DEGs) during rooting, among which 687 DEGs were up-regulated and 728 DEGs were down-regulated. According to Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis, the critical pathways involved in ETH-induced adventitious root development were selected for further study, including carbon metabolism [starch and sucrose metabolism, glycolysis / gluconeogenesis, citrate cycle (TCA cycle), oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid biosynthesis and fatty acid degradation], secondary metabolite biosynthesis (phenylalanine metabolism and flavonoid biosynthesis) and plant hormone signal transduction.
