Abstract
Atmospheric CO 2 elevation promotes peanut biomass accumulation, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigated the physiological and molecular responses of two peanut cultivars (JH2 and JH54) to elevated CO 2 (EC, 700 μmol·mol –1 ) versus ambient CO 2 (CK, 400 μmol·mol –1 ) in open-top chambers, by analyzing photosynthetic traits, aboveground biomass, and leaf transcriptomic/metabolomic profiles. The results showed that EC significantly increased net photosynthetic rate, intercellular CO 2 concentration, water use efficiency and biomass, but reduced stomatal conductance and pigment contents, with upregulated photosynthesis-related genes. Integrated multiomics revealed reprogrammed salicylic acid/abscisic acid signaling (lowering stomatal conductance and improving water use efficiency) and galactose metabolism (facilitating EC acclimation). Collectively, peanuts adapt to EC via coordinated transcriptomic-metabolomic adjustments in photosynthesis, hormone signaling and carbon metabolic reprogramming (especially galactose metabolism), providing a multilevel mechanistic insight into peanut’s responses to rising atmospheric CO 2 .
