Tetraploid citrus rootstocks are expected to have stronger stress tolerance than diploid. Plenty of doubled diploid citrus plants were exploited from diploid species for citrus rootstock improvement. However, limited metabolic and molecular information related to tetraploidization is currently available at a systemic biological level. This study aimed to evaluate the occurrence and extent of metabolic and transcriptional changes induced by tetraploidization in Ziyang xiangcheng (<italic>Citrus junos</italic> Sieb. ex Tanaka), which is a special citrus germplasm native to China and widely used as an iron deficiency tolerant citrus rootstock.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Doubled diploid Ziyang xiangcheng has typical morphological and anatomical features such as shorter plant height, larger and thicker leaves, bigger stomata and lower stomatal density, compared to its diploid parent. GC-MS (Gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry) analysis revealed that tetraploidization has an activation effect on the accumulation of primary metabolites in leaves; many stress-related metabolites such as sucrose, proline and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) was remarkably up-regulated in doubled diploid. However, LC-QTOF-MS (Liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry) analysis demonstrated that tetraploidization has an inhibition effect on the accumulation of secondary metabolites in leaves; all the 33 flavones were down-regulated while all the 6 flavanones were up-regulated in 4x. By RNA-seq analysis, only 212 genes (0.8% of detected genes) are found significantly differentially expressed between 2x and 4x leaves. Notably, those genes were highly related to stress-response functions, including responses to salt stress, water and abscisic acid. Interestingly, the transcriptional divergence could not explain the metabolic changes, probably due to post-transcriptional regulation.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Taken together, tetraploidization induced considerable changes in leaf primary and secondary metabolite accumulation in Ziyang xiangcheng. However, the effect of tetraploidization on transcriptome is limited. Compared to diploid, higher expression level of stress related genes and higher content of stress related metabolites in doubled diploid could be beneficial for its stress tolerance.</p></sec><sec><title>Electronic supplementary material</title><p>The online version of this article (doi:10.1186/s12870-015-0450-4) contains supplementary material, which is available to

Tetraploid citrus rootstocks are expected to have stronger stress tolerance than diploid. Plenty of doubled diploid citrus plants were exploited from diploid species for citrus rootstock improvement. However, limited metabolic and molecular information related to tetraploidization is currently available at a systemic biological level. This study aimed to evaluate the occurrence and extent of metabolic and transcriptional changes induced by tetraploidization in Ziyang xiangcheng (<italic>Citrus junos</italic> Sieb. ex Tanaka), which is a special citrus germplasm native to China and widely used as an iron deficiency tolerant citrus rootstock.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Doubled diploid Ziyang xiangcheng has typical morphological and anatomical features such as shorter plant height, larger and thicker leaves, bigger stomata and lower stomatal density, compared to its diploid parent. GC-MS (Gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry) analysis revealed that tetraploidization has an activation effect on the accumulation of primary metabolites in leaves; many stress-related metabolites such as sucrose, proline and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) was remarkably up-regulated in doubled diploid. However, LC-QTOF-MS (Liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry) analysis demonstrated that tetraploidization has an inhibition effect on the accumulation of secondary metabolites in leaves; all the 33 flavones were down-regulated while all the 6 flavanones were up-regulated in 4x. By RNA-seq analysis, only 212 genes (0.8% of detected genes) are found significantly differentially expressed between 2x and 4x leaves. Notably, those genes were highly related to stress-response functions, including responses to salt stress, water and abscisic acid. Interestingly, the transcriptional divergence could not explain the metabolic changes, probably due to post-transcriptional regulation.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Taken together, tetraploidization induced considerable changes in leaf primary and secondary metabolite accumulation in Ziyang xiangcheng. However, the effect of tetraploidization on transcriptome is limited. Compared to diploid, higher expression level of stress related genes and higher content of stress related metabolites in doubled diploid could be beneficial for its stress tolerance.</p></sec><sec><title>Electronic supplementary material</title><p>The online version of this article (doi:10.1186/s12870-015-0450-4) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.</p></sec></abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><title>Keywords</title><kwd>Citrus</kwd><kwd>Doubled diploid</kwd><kwd>Stress tolerance</kwd><kwd>Primary and secondary metabolism</kwd><kwd>Transcriptome</kwd></kwd-group><custom-meta-group><custom-meta><meta-name>issue-copyright-statement</meta-name><meta-value>© The Author(s) 2015</meta-value></custom-meta></custom-meta-group></article-meta></front><body><sec id="Sec1"><title>Background</title><p>Polyploidy is a common biological phenomenon and plays an important role in evolutionary history of plants [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR1">1</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR3">3</xref>]. Almost all angiosperms have undergone at least one round of whole-genome duplication in the course of their evolution [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR4">4</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR5">5</xref>]. Polyploids are classified into autopolyploids and allopolyploids. The first comes from doubling a diploid genome. And the latter arises from the combination of two or more sets of divergent genomes [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref>]. Many major crop plants including wheat (allohexaploid), cotton (allotetraploid), oilseed rape (allotetraploid), sweet potato (autotetraplooid), rice and maize (paleopolyploid) are polyploids. Moreover, polyploidy cultivars are prevalent in fruit plants, such as banana (triploid), grape (tetraploid), kiwifruit and persimmon (hexaploid), strawberry (octaploid). Phenotypic variations caused by polyploidization possess the potential to improve agricultural productivity and efficiency, especially in increasing biomass and stress tolerance.</p><p>Polyploidy has a significant influence on morphology and physiology of newly formed offspring. Compared with the corresponding diploids, autopolyploids tend to have larger cells, which result in the enlargement of single organs, such as leaves, flowers and seeds [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>]. Physiological traits such as plant height, growth rate, flowering time, and fertility also can be altered by polyploidization [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>]. It has been shown that tetraploidization might significantly increase stress tolerance [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>].</p><p>A limited number of studies have investigated metabolic changes caused by autopolyploidization, and those studies focused on only specific metabolites [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>]. The production of alkaloids was enhanced in artificial autotetraploids <italic>Hyoscyamus niger</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>]. More artemisinin was produced in hairy roots of autotetraploid <italic>Artemisia annua</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>]. Similarly, essential oils were accumulated much more in autotetraploid aromatic grasses (<italic>Cymbopogon</italic>) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR17">17</xref>]. Moreover, the concentration of some metabolites like GAs (glycoalkaloids) were differentially influenced by autotetraploidy, increasing the content of minor GAs and decreasing the content of major GAs in autotetraploid <italic>Solanum commersonii</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">18</xref>].</p><p>Gene expression variations caused by allopolyploidization have been widely reported in many species including <italic>Arabidopsis</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR19">19</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR20">20</xref>], citrus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR21">21</xref>], maize [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR22">22</xref>], and tobacco [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR23">23</xref>]. However, the studies on autopolyploidization aimed at identifying the alterations of genome expression patterns are relatively less than those on allopolyploidization. It is probably because autopolyploidy has long been viewed as less frequent and less important. The number of the genes differentially expressed between diploid and autotetraploid potato was about 10% [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR24">24</xref>]. A much lower rate (less than 2%) was observed when autotetraploid <italic>Arabidopsis</italic> was compared with diploid progenitor [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR25">25</xref>]. Similarly, study performed in autotetraploid and diploid Rangpur lime (<italic>Citrus limonia</italic>) showed about 1% variation in transcriptome [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR26">26</xref>]. Notably, the differentially expressed genes induced by autotetraploidization were highly related to stress response [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR25">25</xref>].</p><p>Citrus is one most important fruit crop in the world. However, citrus production is influenced by many environmental stresses including drought, salinity and extreme temperature [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR27">27</xref>]. Citrus rootstock improvement is required to cope with these abiotic stresses. Ziyang xiangcheng is a local citrus rootstock originated from southwest China. It was considered a putative hybrid of <italic>Citrus ichangensis</italic> and <italic>Citrus reticulata</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR28">28</xref>]. Because of its excellent performance in biotic and abiotic stresses, it has been widely used as a citrus rootstock in China [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR28">28</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR29">29</xref>]. Citrus rootstocks are propagated through polyembryonic seeds and genetically identical to the maternal plant [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">30</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR32">32</xref>]. The majority of citrus genotypes are apomictic, and all the apomictic embryos originate from nucellar cells [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">30</xref>]. Tetraploidization events are frequent in apomictic citrus genotypes [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">30</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR33">33</xref>]. Doubled diploid seedlings in apomictic genotypes are considered to arise from somatic chromosome doubling of maternal cells and should be genetically identical to the seed source tree [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">30</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR31">31</xref>]. Recent studies demonstrate that genome doubling is often considered to confer plants a better adaptability to various environmental stresses [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR33">33</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR34">34</xref>]. Therefore, doubled diploid citrus rootstocks were expected to have substantial advantage over diploid in stress tolerance. In our previous citrus breeding program, we obtained plenty of spontaneous doubled diploids from various citrus rootstock varieties, including Ziyang xiangcheng (<italic>Citrus junos</italic> Sieb. ex Tanaka) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR35">35</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR36">36</xref>].</p><p>To test the effects of tetraploidization on Ziyang xiangcheng, we performed comparative metabolic and transcriptional analysis of doubled diploid and its diploid parent. Our results revealed that doubled diploid Ziyang xiangcheng had a distinct metabolic phenotype, compared with diploid. Many stress related metabolites such as sucrose, proline and GABA were enhanced in doubled diploid. However, less than 1% of genes were differentially expressed between doubled diploid and its diploid parent. Interestingly, these differentially expressed genes were highly related to stress response.</p></sec><sec id="Sec2" sec-type="results"><title>Results</title><sec id="Sec3"><title>Ploidy determination and analysis of genetic constitution</title><p>Eight uniform 4× seedlings out of previously identified fifteen doubled diploids were selected and further verified by flow cytometry.

These libraries were sequenced by Illumina Hiseq 2500 platform. And 50 bp single-end reads were then generated. In total, 25,860,712 raw reads were generated from 2× and a total of 24,428,874 raw reads came from 4× (Additional file <xref rid="MOESM5" ref-type="media">5</xref>). After we removed reads containing adapter, reads containing poly-N, and low quality reads from raw data, 25,830,902 and 24,402,540 clean reads remained in 2× and 4×, respectively. The GC-contents were 43.30% in 2× and 43.16% in 4× respectively. To assess the sequencing quality, the reads were mapped to the <italic>Citrus sinensis</italic> reference genome. Of the two groups of duplicate data, 11,115,785 (86.06%) and 11,383,064 (88.14%) reads successfully mapped were generated from 2×-1-2×-2 and 11,250,774 (88.87%) and 10,531,271(89.69%) reads from 4×-1-4×-2 (Additional file <xref rid="MOESM6" ref-type="media">6</xref>).</p><p>More than 50% of the genes were expressed at a low level (<3 RPKM) and less than 8% of genes were expressed at a high level (>15 RPKM) in all samples (Additional file <xref rid="MOESM7" ref-type="media">7</xref>). Notably, there were no obvious differences between 2× and 4× in the percentage of genes at low, medium and high expression levels. This suggested tetraploidization didn’t have an effect on the inhibition or activation of gene expression.</p><p>Genes with an adjusted p-value <0.05 found by DESeq (R package, version 1.10.1) were assigned as differentially expressed. Totally 24073 genes were detected in all samples, while only 212 genes (0.8% of detected genes) were significantly differentially expressed between 2× and 4× seedling leaves. Of 212 DEGs, 96 genes were up-regulated and 116 genes were down-regulated in 4×, relative to 2×. For up-regulated genes, differences ranged from1.4-fold to 12.5- fold; for down-regulated genes, differences ranged from 1.4-fold and 13.4- fold. These results indicated that the range of gene expression changes between 2× and 4× was very limited.</p><p>The functional gene ontology annotation of these DEGs was further performed by using Blast2Go software. 163 out of the 212 DEGs were assigned to at least one term in GO biological process, cellular component, and molecular function categories. Then the DEGs were classified into 38 subcategories in terms of function, almost covering all important categories of biological processes and molecular functions (Figure <xref rid="Fig4" ref-type="fig">4</xref>). In the biological process category, metabolic process and cellular process were the two largest groups, suggesting that extensive metabolic activities were taking place in 4× leaves. In the cellular component category, cell and cell part represented two major sub-categories, while catalytic and binding were dominant in molecular function category.<fig id="Fig4"><label>Figure 4</label><caption><p><bold>GO categories of the DEGs between 2× and 4× Ziyang xiangcheng.</bold> 163 out of the 212 DEGs were assigned to 957 GO annotations, which were divided into three categories: biological processes, cellular components, and molecular functions.</p></caption><graphic xlink:href="12870_2015_450_Fig4_HTML" id="MO4"></graphic></fig></p><p>GO enrichment analysis was performed by using BiNGO [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR38">38</xref>]. In biological process category, DEGs were found to be highly related to stress-response functions, such as response to salt stress, to water, and to abscisic acid (Figure <xref rid="Fig5" ref-type="fig">5</xref>). This indicated that some processes related to stress were induced in response to tetraploidization. The other two functions, namely anion transport and polyamine catabolic process, were also significantly enriched (Figure <xref rid="Fig5" ref-type="fig">5</xref>). In molecular function category, only two terms were overrepresented, namely, inorganic anion transmembrane transporter activity, inorganic phosphate transmembrane transporter activity (Figure <xref rid="Fig5" ref-type="fig">5</xref>).

In total, 40 out of 212 DEGs were assigned to 46 KEGG pathways. The two largest clusters were metabolic pathways with 19 members and biosynthesis of secondary metabolites with 13 members (Additional file <xref rid="MOESM8" ref-type="media">8</xref>). It indicated that many DEGs involved in metabolic process in 4×. However, no KEGG terms was over-represented in DEGs.</p><p>To validate the RNA-seq data, the following top 10 up-regulated functionally characterized genes were selected for qPCR assays: Fe(II)/ascorbate oxidase (SRG1, Cs9g09290), UDP-glucoronosyl/UDP-glucosyltransferase family protein (UGT, Cs5g11620), myb family transcription factor (RL6, Cs3g24870), caffeic acid O-methyltransferase (COMT, orange1.1 t02085), aminocyclopropane 1-carboxylic acid oxidase (ACO, Cs9g08990), u-box armadillo repeat protein (PUB19, Cs7g08470), ethylene response factor (ERF4, Cs1g07950), tracheary element vacuolar protein (XCP1, Cs2g27860), glycosyltransferase (GATL9, Cs7g07900), ethylene response factor (ERF9, Cs2g05620) (Additional file <xref rid="MOESM9" ref-type="media">9</xref>). As shown in Figure <xref rid="Fig6" ref-type="fig">6</xref>, all the 10 genes were verified to be up-regulated by qPCR analysis, although their fold changes differed from the result of RNA-seq. Notably, six of these genes, namely, SRG1 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR39">39</xref>], COMT [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR40">40</xref>], ACO [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR41">41</xref>], PUB19 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR42">42</xref>], ERF4 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR43">43</xref>] and ERF9 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR44">44</xref>] were involved in abiotic stress response.<fig id="Fig6"><label>Figure 6</label><caption><p><bold>Expression analysis of top 10 up-regulated functionally characterized DEGs in 4× Ziyang xiangcheng by qPCR.</bold></p></caption><graphic xlink:href="12870_2015_450_Fig6_HTML" id="MO6"></graphic></fig></p></sec></sec><sec id="Sec8" sec-type="discussion"><title>Discussion</title><sec id="Sec9"><title>Stress related metabolites were significantly up-regulated in doubled diploid Ziyang xiangcheng</title><p>Metabolic alterations induced by tetraploidization might confer plant a better adaptation to environmental stresses. Primary metabolites are required for growth, development and interactions of plants with their environment [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR45">45</xref>]. In this study, most of the detected primary metabolites were up-regulated in 4× Ziyang xiangcheng (Table <xref rid="Tab1" ref-type="table">1</xref>). It indicated that tetraploidization had an activation effect on primary metabolism. These up-regulated metabolites include sugars, amino acids, organic acids, and fatty acids. Notably, these metabolites play an important role during plant adaptations to environmental stresses.</p><p>Sugars are involved in various abiotic stresses. They have several functions in plants suffering abiotic stresses: acting as osmoprotectants to maintain osmotic balance and stabilize macromolecules or as metabolite signaling molecules to activate specific signal transduction pathway, and providing energy source to recover from water deficit [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR46">46</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR47">47</xref>]. Accumulation of sugars is strongly correlated with improved plant stress tolerance to drought stress [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR46">46</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR48">48</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR49">49</xref>]. For example, sucrose accumulates in almost all desiccation-tolerant flowering plants [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR50">50</xref>] and fern [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR51">51</xref>]. In this study, seven out of nine detected sugars including sucrose, glucose and fructose were up-regulated in 4×, which implied 4× might have advantages over 2× under drought stress.</p><p>A case in point is that increased levels of proline correlate with enhanced stress tolerance [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR48">48</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR52">52</xref>]. Proline was considered to have several functions under stress conditions, including osmotic adjusting, reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger and protection of proteins from denaturation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR52">52</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR54">54</xref>]. Therefore, higher concentration of proline might promote abiotic stress tolerance in 4×. Additionally, Yobi et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR55">55</xref>] found that desiccation-tolerant species <italic>Selaginella lepidophylla</italic> had significantly higher concentration of sugars, sugar alcohols and amino acids than desiccation-sensitive species <italic>Selaginella moellendorffii</italic>. Compared to 2×, higher concentration of stress metabolites in 4× might be also beneficial for the cultivar grafted on it. A study performed on Rangpur lime (<italic>Citrus limonia</italic>) rootstock demonstrated that tetraploids increase drought tolerance via enhanced constitutive root abscisic acid production [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR26">26</xref>]. In that study, diploid and tetraploid clones of Rangpur lime rootstocks were grafted with 2× Valencia Delta sweet orange (<italic>Citrus sinensis</italic>) scions, named V/2×RL and V/4×RL, respectively; V/4×RL leaves had greater abscisic acid (ABA) content under normal condition, compared to V/2×RL [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR26">26</xref>]. Studies of <italic>Arabidopsis</italic> polyploids revealed that the content of leaf potassium and rubidium was evaluated in in diploid leaves on shoots grafted to tetraploid roots, whereas leaves from tetraploid shoots grafted to diploid roots showed the same leaf K as diploid [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>]. So we may presume that a distinct metabolic phenotype would be observed between the scion cultivars grafted on 4× and 2× Ziyang xiangcheng respectively. Higher content of stress-related metabolites in 4× might be beneficial for the cultivar grafted on it. In addition, tetraploid rootstock may also have a dwarfing effect on scion cultivar being grafted on it, compared with the diploid rootstock [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR56">56</xref>].</p></sec><sec id="Sec10"><title>Gene expression divergence caused by tetraploidization is involved with stress response</title><p>A small genome expression change was observed between diploid and autotetraploid according to studies performed on several species. In <italic>Paspalum notatum</italic> and <italic>Isatis indigotica</italic>, about 0.6% and 4% variations in transcript abundance were detected between diploid and autotetraploid by using the <italic>Arabidopsis thaliana</italic> whole genome gene chip [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR57">57</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR58">58</xref>]. In <italic>Arabidopsis thaliana</italic> Col-0 ecotype and Ler-0 ecotype, Yu et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR25">25</xref>] found about 1% and 0.1% variations between diploid and autotetraploid, respectively. We found less than 1% genes were differentially expressed between diploid and doubled diploid Ziyang xiangcheng. A similar number of genes were also detected between diploid and tetraploid <italic>Citrus limonia</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR26">26</xref>]. These studies altogether with our study suggested that the effect of genome doubling on gene expression is relatively limited. Here, we should point out that the 4× Ziyang xiangcheng came from doubling a hybrid (<italic>C. ichangensis</italic> × <italic>C. reticulata</italic>). Theoretically, the doubled diploid should be an allotetraploid rather than an autotetraploid (doubling a homozygous diploid) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>]. Therefore, the expression pattern of doubled diploid Ziyang xiangcheng should consist with the one of an allotetraploid rather than the one of an autotetraploid<bold>.</bold> Genome expression changes in allotetraploids are considered to be more strongly affected by genome hybridization than by changes in ploidy levels [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR19">19</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR59">59</xref>]. So we presume that a relatively large change in genome expression could be detected between doubled diploid Ziyang xiangcheng and its putative parents (<italic>C. ichangensis</italic> and <italic>C. reticulata</italic>). Herein, we only focused on the effect of genome doubling on gene expression.</p><p>Genes involved in the response to abscisic acid and abiotic stimulus, were differentially expressed following genome doubling according to GO enrichment analysis (Figure <xref rid="Fig5" ref-type="fig">5</xref>). This indicates that 4× Ziyang xiangcheng might be able to respond to abiotic stresses in a flexible and fast way, to some extent [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>]. Interestingly, the phenomenon that tetraploidization influences the expression of genes involved in hormone and abiotic stress responses was also reported in autotetraploid <italic>A. thaliana</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR25">25</xref>]. We also found that the expression of genes involved in ion transport was also affected by genome doubling. It is known that ion transport is highly related to salt tolerance [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR60">60</xref>].</p><p>Higher potassium accumulation and salinity tolerance has been found in <italic>Arabidopsis</italic> polyploids [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>]. The higher potassium accumulation might be partly due to altered expression of genes involved in ion transport.</p><p>Moreover, six out of ten top up-regulated genes were involved in ABA- and stress-related process (Additional file <xref rid="MOESM9" ref-type="media">9</xref>). The first gene, namely SRG1, was associated with senescence-related processes, encoding a member of the Fe(ll)/ascorbate oxidase superfamily protein, and its expression was induced under drought and heat stress [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR61">61</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR62">62</xref>]. Caffeic acid O-methyltransferases encoded by COMT genes are key enzymes of lignin biosynthesis [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR63">63</xref>], affecting cell wall structure, and COMT was up-regulated by drought stress in maize [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR40">40</xref>]. ACO genes encode 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) oxidases which catalyze the reaction from ACC to ethylene [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR64">64</xref>], and water stress induced ACO gene expression in sunflower leaves was previously reported [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR65">65</xref>]. PUB19 encodes a U-Box E3 ubiquitin ligase and it was up-regulated by drought, salt, and cold stress and ABA [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR42">42</xref>]. The last two genes, namely ERF4 and ERF9, which are the members of the ERF/AP2 transcription factor family, are involved in various reactions to abiotic stresses [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR66">66</xref>]; these two genes bind to the GCC box, DRE/CRT, CE1 elements, and they acted as repressors of gene transcription, enhancing plant tolerance to multiple stresses [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR67">67</xref>]. Overexpression of ERF4 gene increased tolerance to salt and drought stress in <italic>Arabidopsis</italic> [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR66">66</xref>]. These reports, together with our results suggest 4× Ziyang xiangcheng may be pre-adapted to abiotic stresses, compared to 2×.</p></sec><sec id="Sec11"><title>The transcriptome divergence cannot explain the metabolic changes</title><p>In order to integrate leaf transcriptome data with the metabolic profiling, attention was focused on the DEGs involved in metabolic pathway. Among these DEGs, 40 were assigned to 46 pathways and no significantly enriched KEEG pathways were found. It implies that the limited DEGs involve in a wide range of pathways, but their functions are dispersive.</p><p>To a great extent, the accumulation pattern of the DEGs encoding proteins or enzymes involved in metabolic processes was not consistent with the differences observed in the metabolite profiling (Additional file <xref rid="MOESM10" ref-type="media">10</xref>). Most of the detected sugars, amino acids and fatty acids were significantly accumulated in 4×. However, most of the genes involved in these metabolic processes were down-regulated in 4×. For example, the sucrose content of 4x leaves was 2-fold than that of 2×. But the gene encoding sucrose synthase was significantly down-regulated in 4×. In another example, in flavone and flavonol biosynthesis, only one gene, namely, COMT was differentially expressed between 4× and 2×. The gene encoding a caffeic acid O-methyltransferase, positively regulates flavonoid biosynthetic process and may be involved in PMFs (polymethoxyflavones) synthesis [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR68">68</xref>]. Theoretically, the up-regulation of COMT should promote the accumulation of PMFs in 4×. However, all detected PMFs were down-regulated in 4×. The discordance between transcriptomic and metabolomic data is probably related to several factors. First, it is not easy to find a strict correlation between metabolite accumulation and gene expression because of the complexity in metabolic networks [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR69">69</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR70">70</xref>]. Second, small RNAs, including microRNAs and small interfering RNAs might play an important role in some gene regulation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR71">71</xref>]. Third, reactivation of transposable elements (TEs) following polyploidization in synthetic hexaploid wheats (<italic>Triticum</italic>) was considered to participate in regulation of the transcription of neighbouring genes [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR72">72</xref>]. At last, post-translational modifications may contribute to the discordance between transcriptomic and metabolomic data. The transcriptome divergence might not reflect the protein divergence between 4× and 2× Ziyang xiangcheng, leading to the discordance. In support of this hypothesis, percentage of differentially accumulated proteins between autotetraploid and diploid <italic>Arabidopsis thaliana</italic> that matched the differentially expressed genes was relatively low, due to post-transcriptional regulation and translational modifications of proteins during polyploidization [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR73">73</xref>]. Similarly, transcriptional changes do not explain differential protein regulation in resynthesized <italic>Brassica napus</italic> allotetraploids [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR74">74</xref>].</p></sec></sec><sec id="Sec12" sec-type="conclusions"><title>Conclusions</title><p>Our results suggest that tetraploidization has multi-level effects on Ziyang xiangcheng. Morphological and anatomical traits like leaf thickness, stoma number, stomatal density and vessel size were altered as a consequence of tetraploidization. The metabolic phenotype was also significantly altered following tetraploidization and many stress-related metabolites, such as sucrose, proline and GABA were significantly up-regulated in 4×. However, relatively small transcriptome alterations were induced by tetraploidization. Notably, the transcriptome alterations were highly related to hormone and stress responses, and many top up-regulated genes in 4× were associated with stress response. Interestingly, the transcriptional divergence could not adequately explain the metabolic changes, probably due to post-transcriptional regulation. Compared to diploid, higher expression level of stress related genes and higher content of stress related metabolites in doubled diploid could be beneficial for its stress tolerance. Our data will help better understanding the consequences caused by polyploidization and be valuable for citrus rootstock breeding in the future.</p></sec><sec id="Sec13" sec-type="methods"><title>Methods</title><sec id="Sec14"><title>Plant materials</title><p>Seeds of diploid (2n = 2× = 18) Ziyang xiangcheng (<italic>Citrus junos</italic> Sieb. ex Tanaka) were collected and provided by Professor Keling Chen, Institute of Horticulture Research, Sichuan Provincial Academy of Agricultural Science, China. Seeds were grown in pots filled with commercial soil in the greenhouse. Doubled diploid and diploid Ziyang xiangcheng were prepared by Liang et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">30</xref>]. Thirteen uniform 1-year-old 2× and eight uniform 1-year-old 4× seedlings were respectively selected and transplanted in commercial soil. Seedlings were grown in the greenhouse under natural photoperiod conditions and they were irrigated twice a week. The ploidy levels of these seedlings were determined by flow cytometry (CyFlow Space, Partec, Germany). The genetic constitution of these seedlings was further analyzed by the published SSR markers [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR75">75</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR76">76</xref>], namely, Ci01C09, Ci06A05b, Ci07C07, Ci07E06, mCrCIR08A03, CCSM40, CCSM46, CCSM69.</p></sec><sec id="Sec15"><title>Sampling</title><p>Fully expended leaves (from fourth or fifth leaf from the top, 3–5 month old, from the spring flush of the current season) were collected in the morning.

Three leaves of each individual seedling were measured. SEM analysis was performed using one leaf of each individual plant according to the method described by Yi et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR77">77</xref>]. Photographs were taken to measure stomatal size and density. About 60 stomata were measured for each genotype.</p><p>Samples were fixed, dehydrated and embedded according to Hu et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR78">78</xref>]. Transverse sections about 1–5 μm thick were cut using a Leica Ultracut R ultramicrotome (Leica, Bensheim, Germany). The sections were stained with Toluidine Blue O (Aldrich, Milwaukee) and photographed with a BX61 fluorescence microscope (Olympus, Tokyo). The morphometrical analysis was performed using Image-Pro Plus 6.0 software (Media Cybernetics, USA).</p></sec><sec id="Sec17"><title>The primary metabolic profiling</title><p>Six independent plants were used as biological replicates, and about five leaves were sampled from each plant in primary metabolic profiling. Non-targeted metabolite profiling was carried out by GC-MS using a modified method described by Yun et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR37">37</xref>]. A total of 200 mg ground leaf samples were extracted in 2,700 μl methanol and ribitol solution (300 μl, 0.2 mg ml<sup>−1</sup>) was added as an internal standard. The samples were centrifuged, dried and derivatized. GC-MS analysis was performed by using a Thermo Trace GC Ultra, coupled with Thermo Fisher a DSQ II mass spectrometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA).
