| Summary |
In plants, the genomic structure of hybrids changed compared with their parents. However, the effects of genomic structure changes on heterotic expression in hybrids remain elusive. By comparing interspecific hybrids between Col×C24 and their backcross C24×Col in Arabidopsis with Hi-C analysis, we found that the three-dimensional (3D) chromatin organization had more long-distance interactions relative to parents. The compartment strength related to the increased A-B compartment interactions decreased in hybrids. In the boundaries of topologically associated domains (TADs) like regions in hybrids, the values of Interchromosomal Fraction of Interactions (ICF) and Distal-to-Local [log2] (DLR) were higher than or close to the highest value of their parents. While in the hybrids of CURLY LEAF (clf) mutants, which affects the long-distance interactions, the heterosis phenotype disappeared and the ICF and DLR in hybrids were lower than their parents. In addition, compared with the clf mutant, the differential expressed genes located in TAD boundaries and loop regions in the wild type changed more obviously. In the long-distance interaction and the loop region between WT and clf, there were obvious differences in the functional enrichment for DEGs. The genes with cell cycle and mitotic related process were specifically enriched in clf. By analyzing ChIP-seq data, we found that the enrichment of H3K27me3 were higher in the hybrids in WT, which may lead to more long-distance interactions. Our findings may therefore propose a new epigenetic explanation of the heterotic expression in Arabidopsis hybrids and provide new insights into crop breeding and yield increasing.
