| Summary |
Expression divergence caused by genetic variation and crosstalks among subgenomes of the allohexaploid bread wheat (Triticum aestivum. L., BBAADD) is hypothesized to increase its adaptability and/or plasticity. However, the molecular basis of expression divergence remains unclear. Squamosa promoter-binding protein-like (SPL) transcription factors are critical for a wide array of biological processes. In this study, we constructed expression regulatory networks by combining DAP-seq for 40 SPLs, ATAC-seq, and RNA-seq. Our findings indicate that a group of low-affinity SPL binding regions (SBRs) were targeted by diverse SPLs and caused different sequence preferences around the core GTAC motif. The SBRs including the low-affinity ones are evolutionarily conserved, enriched GWAS signals related to important agricultural traits. However, those SBRs are highly diversified among the cis-regulatory regions (CREs) of syntenic genes, with less than 8% SBRs coexisting in triad genes, suggesting that CRE variations are critical for subgenome differentiations. Knocking out of TaSPL7A/B/D and TaSPL15A/B/D subfamily further proved that both high- and low-affinity SBRs played critical roles in the differential expression of genes regulating tiller number and spike sizes. Our results have provided baseline data for downstream networks of SPLs and wheat improvements and revealed that CRE variations are critical sources for subgenome divergence in the allohexaploid wheat.

| Overall design |
To systematically study the regulatory networks mediated by wheat SPLs, we performed DAP-seq for 40 wheat SPLs (SPLs), ATAC-seq and RNA-seq seq for four tissues (leaves, roots, axillary buds and shoot apices) of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).
