The Combined Strategy for iron uptake is not exclusive to domesticated rice (Oryza sativa).

ABSTRACT: Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient that is frequently inaccessible to plants. Rice (Oryza sativa L.) plants employ the Combined Strategy for Fe uptake, which is composed by all features of Strategy II, common to all Poaceae species, and some features of Strategy I, common to non-Poaceae species. To understand the evolution of Fe uptake mechanisms, we analyzed the root transcriptomic response to Fe deficiency in O. sativa and its wild progenitor O. rufipogon. We identified 622 and 2,017 differentially expressed genes in O. sativa and O. rufipogon, respectively. Among the genes up-regulated in both species, we found Fe transporters associated with Strategy I, such as IRT1, IRT2 and NRAMP1; and genes associated with Strategy II, such as YSL15 and IRO2. In order to evaluate the conservation of these Strategies among other Poaceae, we identified the orthologs of these genes in nine species from the Oryza genus, maize and sorghum, and evaluated their expression profile in response to low Fe condition. Our results indicate that the Combined Strategy is not specific to O. sativa as previously proposed, but also present in species of the Oryza genus closely related to domesticated rice, and originated around the same time the AA genome lineage within Oryza diversified. Therefore, adaptation to Fe2+ acquisition via IRT1 in flooded soils precedes O. sativa domestication.

Project description:Selenite and phosphate share similar uptake mechanisms, as a phosphate transporter is involved in the selenite uptake process. However, the mechanism by which selenium (Se) transformation in plants is mediated by phosphorus (P) remains unclear. In this hydroponic study, the absorption, translocation, and biotransformation of Se in selenite-treated rice (Oryza sativa L.) seedlings were investigated under varying P nutrient status. The results showed that P-deficient cultivation increased the Se concentration in roots with Se-only treatment by 2.1 times relative to that of the P-normal condition. However, co-treating roots with additional P caused the Se concentration to decline by 20 and 73% compared to Se treatment alone under P-normal and P-deficient cultivation, respectively. A similar pattern was also observed in Se uptake by rice roots. With an Se-transfer factor elevated by 4.4 times, the shoot Se concentration was increased by 44% with additional P supply compared to the concentration under Se-only treatment of P deficiency; however, no significant differences were observed regarding P-normal cultivation. P deficiency increased the Se percentage by 28% within the cell wall, but reduced it by 60% in the soluble fraction of Se-only treated roots relative to that of the P-normal condition. Contrarily, compared with the Se-only treatment under P deficiency, additional P supply enhanced Se storage in the root soluble fraction by 1.3 times. The opposite tendency was observed for rice shoots. Moreover, P deficiency reduced the proportion of SeMet by 22%, but increased MeSeCys by 1.3 times in Se-only treated roots compared to those under the P-normal condition. Interestingly, MeSeCys was not detected when additional P was added to the two cultivation conditions. Unlike in the roots, only SeMet was generally detected in the rice shoots. The results demonstrate that the P nutrient status strongly affects the Se biofortification efficiency in rice seedlings by altering the Se subcellular distribution and speciation.
