Abstract
Maize is an important food crop. Chilling stress can decrease maize production by affecting seed germination and seedling growth, especially in early spring. We analysed chlorophyll fluorescence, membrane lipids, secondary metabolites and the transcriptome of two maize inbred lines (chilling-tolerant M54 and chilling-sensitive 753F) after 0, 4 and 24 h cold stress. M54 showed better ability to protect PSII and accumulate secondary metabolites. From RNA sequencing data, we determined that the majority of cold-affected genes were involved in photosynthesis, secondary metabolism, and signal transduction. Genes important for maintaining photosystem structure and for regulating electron transport were less affected by cold stress in M54 than in 753F. Expression of genes related to secondary metabolism and unsaturated fatty acid synthesis were upregulated more strongly in M54 than in 753F and M54 accumulated more unsaturated fatty acids and secondary metabolites. As a result, M54 achieved relatively high cold tolerance by protecting the photosystems and maintaining the stability of cell membranes.
