Environmental Signal-Dependent Regulation of Flowering Time in Rice.

ABSTRACT: The transition from the vegetative to the reproductive stage of growth is a critical event in the lifecycle of a plant and is required for the plant's reproductive success. Flowering time is tightly regulated by an internal time-keeping system and external light conditions, including photoperiod, light quality, and light quantity. Other environmental factors, such as drought and temperature, also participate in the regulation of flowering time. Thus, flexibility in flowering time in response to environmental factors is required for the successful adaptation of plants to the environment. In this review, we summarize our current understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which internal and environmental signals are integrated to regulate flowering time in Arabidopsis thaliana and rice (Oryza sativa).

SIP1 participates in regulation of flowering time in rice by recruiting OsTrx1 to Ehd1.

Project description:Flowering time (heading date) in rice (Oryza sativa) is an important agronomic trait that determines yield. The levels of histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) modulated by TRITHORAX-like proteins regulate gene transcription, flowering time and environmental stress responses. However, plant TRITHORAX-like proteins have no known DNA-binding domain, and therefore the mechanism that gives sequence specificity to these proteins remains unclear. Here, we show that the rice TRITHORAX-like protein OsTrx1 is recruited to its target, Early heading date 1 (Ehd1), by the C2H2 zinc finger protein SDG723/OsTrx1/OsSET33 Interaction Protein 1 (SIP1). SIP1 binds to the promoter of Ehd1 and interacts with OsTrx1. Mutations in SIP1 led to a late heading date under long-day and short-day conditions. Defects in OsTrx1 or SIP1 led to reduced H3K4me3 levels at Ehd1, thus reducing Ehd1 expression. Together, our results show that the transcription factor SIP1 interacts with OxTrx1, allowing OsTrx1 to specifically target Ehd1, altering H3K4me3 levels, increasing Ehd1 expression and thereby promoting flowering.

Natural variation of the RICE FLOWERING LOCUS T 1 contributes to flowering time divergence in rice.

Project description:In rice (Oryza sativa L.), there is a diversity in flowering time that is strictly genetically regulated. Some indica cultivars show extremely late flowering under long-day conditions, but little is known about the gene(s) involved. Here, we demonstrate that functional defects in the florigen gene RFT1 are the main cause of late flowering in an indica cultivar, Nona Bokra. Mapping and complementation studies revealed that sequence polymorphisms in the RFT1 regulatory and coding regions are likely to cause late flowering under long-day conditions. We detected polymorphisms in the promoter region that lead to reduced expression levels of RFT1. We also identified an amino acid substitution (E105K) that leads to a functional defect in Nona Bokra RFT1. Sequencing of the RFT1 region in rice accessions from a global collection showed that the E105K mutation is found only in indica, and indicated a strong association between the RFT1 haplotype and extremely late flowering in a functional Hd1 background. Furthermore, SNPs in the regulatory region of RFT1 and the E105K substitution in 1,397 accessions show strong linkage disequilibrium with a flowering time-associated SNP. Although the defective E105K allele of RFT1 (but not of another florigen gene, Hd3a) is found in many cultivars, relative rate tests revealed no evidence for differential rate of evolution of these genes. The ratios of nonsynonymous to synonymous substitutions suggest that the E105K mutation resulting in the defect in RFT1 occurred relatively recently. These findings indicate that natural mutations in RFT1 provide flowering time divergence under long-day conditions.

Multiple bHLH proteins form heterodimers to mediate CRY2-dependent regulation of flowering-time in Arabidopsis.

Project description:Arabidopsis thaliana cryptochrome 2 (CRY2) mediates light control of flowering time. CIB1 (CRY2-interacting bHLH 1) specifically interacts with CRY2 in response to blue light to activate the transcription of FT (Flowering Locus T). In vitro, CIB1 binds to the canonical E-box (CACGTG, also referred to as G-box) with much higher affinity than its interaction with non-canonical E-box (CANNTG) DNA sequences. However, in vivo, CIB1 binds to the chromatin region of the FT promoter, which only contains the non-canonical E-box sequences. Here, we show that CRY2 also interacts with at least CIB5, in response to blue light, but not in darkness or in response to other wavelengths of light. Our genetic analysis demonstrates that CIB1, CIB2, CIB4, and CIB5 act redundantly to activate the transcription of FT and that they are positive regulators of CRY2 mediated flowering. More importantly, CIB1 and other CIBs proteins form heterodimers, and some of the heterodimers have a higher binding affinity than the CIB homodimers to the non-canonical E-box in the in vitro DNA-binding assays. This result explains why in vitro CIB1 and other CIBs bind to the canonical E-box (G-box) with a higher affinity, whereas they are all associated with the non-canonical E-boxes at the FT promoter in vivo. Consistent with the hypothesis that different CIB proteins play similar roles in the CRY2-midiated blue light signaling, the expression of CIB proteins is regulated specifically by blue light. Our study demonstrates that CIBs function redundantly in regulating CRY2-dependent flowering, and that different CIBs form heterodimers to interact with the non-canonical E-box DNA in vivo.

Functional Redundancy of FLOWERING LOCUS T 3b in Soybean Flowering Time Regulation.

Project description:Photoperiodic flowering is an important agronomic trait that determines adaptability and yield in soybean and is strongly influenced by FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) genes. Due to the presence of multiple FT homologs in the genome, their functions in soybean are not fully understood. Here, we show that GmFT3b exhibits functional redundancy in regulating soybean photoperiodic flowering. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that GmFT3b is a typical floral inducer FT homolog and that the protein is localized to the nucleus. Moreover, GmFT3b expression was induced by photoperiod and circadian rhythm and was more responsive to long-day (LD) conditions. We generated a homozygous ft3b knockout and three GmFT3b-overexpressing soybean lines for evaluation under different photoperiods. There were no significant differences in flowering time between the wild-type, the GmFT3b overexpressors, and the ft3b knockouts under natural long-day, short-day, or LD conditions. Although the downstream flowering-related genes GmFUL1 (a, b), GmAP1d, and GmLFY1 were slightly down-regulated in ft3b plants, the floral inducers GmFT5a and GmFT5b were highly expressed, indicating potential compensation for the loss of GmFT3b. We suggest that GmFT3b acts redundantly in flowering time regulation and may be compensated by other FT homologs in soybean.

The transcription factor HBF1 directly activates expression of multiple flowering time repressors to delay rice flowering.

Project description:Flowering time (or heading date) is an important agronomic trait that determines the environmental adaptability and yield of many crops, including rice (Oryza sativa L.). Hd3a BINDING REPRESSOR FACTOR 1 (HBF1), a basic leucine zipper transcription factor, delays flowering by decreasing the expression of Early heading date 1 (Ehd1), Heading date 3a (Hd3a), and RICE FLOWERING LOCUS T 1 (RFT1), but the underlying molecular mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Here, we employed the hybrid transcriptional factor (HTF) strategy to enhance the transcriptional activity of HBF1 by fusing it to four copies of the activation domain from Herpes simplex virus VP16. We discovered that transgenic rice lines overexpressing HBF1-VP64 (HBF1V) show significant delays in time to flower, compared to lines overexpressing HBF1-MYC or wild-type plants, via the Ehd1-Hd3a/RFT1 pathway, under both long-day and short-day conditions. Transcriptome deep sequencing analysis indicated that 19 WRKY family genes are upregulated in the HBF1V overexpression line. We demonstrate that the previously unknown gene, OsWRKY64, is a direct downstream target of HBF1 and represses flowering in rice, whereas three known flowering repressor genes, Days to heading 7 (DTH7), CONSTANS 3 (OsCO3), and OsWRKY104, are also direct target genes of HBF1 in flowering regulation. Taking these results together, we propose detailed molecular mechanisms by which HBF1 regulates the time to flower in rice.

3D epigenome architecture orchestrates cis and trans regulation of flowering time in rice [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Repressive epigenetic modification histone H3 lysine 27 tri-methylation (H3K27me3) marks many agronomically important genes in plants. However, H3K27me3-associated three-dimensional (3D) genome architecture and its regulatory functions in rice flowering time remain unclear. In this study, we map H3K27me3-associated genome topology using long-read ChIA-PET and reveal extensive chromatin loops among H3K27me3-marked regions in different rice varieties and tissues. Multiple H3K27me3-associated chromatin loops usually tether together and further form repressive chromatin interacting domains (RIDs), which provide structural bases for the regulation of the co-modification and co-expression of interacting genes. Surprisingly, we identified extensive chromatin loops between the rice florigen genes Hd3a and RFT1, and frequent chromatin interactions between the positive flowering regulator Ehd1 on the chromosome 10 and Hd3a/ RFT1 loci on the chromosome 6. These results suggest that flowering genes might form a Ehd1-Hd3a/RFT1-centered spatial gene cluster in rice. We also demonstrate the flowering regulator protein complexes comprising Ghd7, Ghd8, and Hd1 could bind to the Ehd1-Hd3a/RFT1 spatial gene cluster. In addition, liquid-liquid phase separation of Ghd7 and Hd1, as well as the essentially synchronous expression of Ehd1 and Hd3a suggest that this spatial gene cluster acts as a regulatory hub to coordinately regulates the expression of Ehd1-Hd3a. This work uncovers the frame of integrated cis and trans molecular mechanism underlying transcriptional regulation of florigen genes in rice.
