Effects of exogenous gibberellic acid3 on iron and manganese plaque amounts and iron and manganese uptake in rice.

ABSTRACT: Gibberellins (GA) regulate various components of plant development. Iron and Mn plaque result from oxiding and hydroxiding Fe and Mn, respectively, on the roots of aquatic plant species such as rice (Oryza sativa L.). In this study, we found that exogenous gibberellic acid3 (GA3) spray decreased Fe plaque, but increased Mn plaque, with applications of Kimura B nutrient solution. Similar effects from GA3, leading to reduced Fe plaque and increased Mn plaque, were also found by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometric microanalysis. Reduced Fe plaque was observed after applying GA3 to the groups containing added Fe2+ (17 and 42 mg•L(-1)) and an increasing trend was detected in Mn plaques of the Mn2+ (34 and 84 mg•L(-1)) added treatments. In contrast, an inhibitor of GA3, uniconazole, reversed the effects of GA3. The uptake of Fe or Mn in rice plants was enhanced after GA3 application and Fe or Mn plaque production. Strong synergetic effects of GA3 application on Fe plaque production were detected. However, no synergetic effects on Mn plaque production were detected.

Project description:Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the essential staple foods for more than half of the world's population, and its production is affected by different environmental abiotic and biotic stress conditions. The white-backed planthopper (WBPH, Sogatella furcifera) causes significant damage to rice plants, leading to substantial economic losses due to reduced production. In this experiment, we applied exogenous hormones (gibberellic acid and methyl jasmonate) to WBPH-infested rice plants and examined the relative expression of related genes, antioxidant accumulation, the recovery rate of affected plants, endogenous hormones, the accumulation of H2O2, and the rate of cell death using DAB and trypan staining, respectively. The expression of the transcriptional regulator (OsGAI) and gibberellic-acid-mediated signaling regulator (OsGID2) was upregulated significantly in GA 50 µM + WBPH after 36 h. OsGAI was upregulated in the control, GA 50 µM + WBPH, GA 100 µM + WBPH, and MeJA 100 µM + WBPH. However, after 48 h, the OsGID2 was significantly highly expressed in all groups of plants. The glutathione (GSH) values were significantly enhanced by GA 100 µM and MeJA 50 µM treatment. Unlike glutathione (GSH), the catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POD) values were significantly reduced in control + WBPH plants. However, a slight increase in CAT and POD values was observed in GA 50 + WBPH plants and a reduction in the POD value was observed in GA 100 µM + WBPH and MeJA 50 µM + WBPH plants. GA highly recovered the WBPH-affected rice plants, while no recovery was seen in MeJA-treated plants. MeJA was highly accumulated in control + WBPH, MeJA 50 µM + WBPH, and GA 100 µM + WBPH plants. The H2O2 accumulation was highly decreased in GA-treated plants, while extensive cell death was observed in MeJA-treated plants compared with GA-treated plants. From this study, we can conclude that the exogenous application of GA can overcome the effects of the WBPH and enhance resistance in rice.
