英文摘要： Epimedium wushanense has great value for use on medicial and scientific research. Based on the early results of physiological and biochemical studies, this research will focus on the molecular mechanism of the growth, development and flavonoid metabolism of Epimedium wushanense that affected by different light conditions. This study will apply techniques such as LC-MS, high-throughput sequencing, and some bioinformatic methods, systematically analyze the effects of light on the transcriptomes, the small RNA expression profiles, and the amount and types of flavonoids in the Epimedium wushanense leaves, and will construct the gene expression and regulation network that reflecting the effects of light on the metabolism of flavonoids such as icariin. Some functional genes or small RNAs that play significant roles in light induced biosynthesis of flavonoids such as icariin in Epimedium wushanense can be obtained in this study, and this work will be of help for understanding the molecular mechanism on small RNAs and functional genes cooperatively regulating the metabolism of flavonoids such as icariin in different light conditions. This study will systematically investigate the functions of small RNAs and the effect of light on flavonoid metabolism of Epimedium for the first time, the materials, methods and experiment designs all have paticular characteristics. This study can be help on the further analysis of the molecular mechanism of light affected flavonoid metabolism, also can be used as a basis for the cultivation and breeding of Epimedium, or the production of active ingredients of Epimedium by biotechniques.
