Transcriptome characterization of moso bamboo ( Phyllostachys edulis ) seedlings in response to exogenous gibberellin applications

Background Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) is a well-known bamboo species of high economic value in the textile industry due to its rapid growth. Phytohormones, which are master regulators of growth and development, serve as important endogenous signals. However, the mechanisms through which phytohormones regulate growth in moso bamboo remain unknown to date.
