Heat-tolerant hot pepper exhibits constant photosynthesis via increased transpiration rate, high proline content and fast recovery in heat stress condition.

ABSTRACT: Understanding the mechanism for heat tolerance is important for the hot pepper breeding program to develop heat-tolerant cultivars in changing climate. This study was conducted to investigate physiological and biochemical parameters related to heat tolerance and to determine leaf heat damage levels critical for selecting heat-tolerant genotypes. Seedlings of two commercial cultivars, heat-tolerant 'NW Bigarim' (NB) and susceptible 'Chyung Yang' (CY), were grown in 42 °C for ten days. Photosynthesis, electrolyte conductivity, proline content were measured among seedlings during heat treatment. Photosynthetic rate was significantly reduced in 'CY' but not in 'NB' seedlings in 42 °C. Stomatal conductivity and transpiration rate was significantly higher in 'NB' than 'CY'. Proline content was also significantly higher in 'NB'. After heat treatment, leaf heat damages were determined as 0, 25, 50 and 75% and plants with different leaf heat damages were moved to a glasshouse (30-32/22-24 °C in day/night). The growth and developmental parameters were investigated until 70 days. 'NB' was significantly affected by leaf heat damages only in fruit yield while 'CY' was in fruit set, number and yield. 'NB' showed fast recovery after heat stress compared to 'CY'. These results suggest that constant photosynthetic rate via increased transpiration rate as well as high proline content in heat stress condition confer faster recovery from heat damage of heat-tolerant cultivars in seedlings stages.

Comparative heat stress responses of three hot pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) genotypes differing temperature sensitivity.

Project description:As global temperatures have steadily increased over past decades, studying of the impacts of heat stress on morpho-physiological traits and economic yields of horticultural crops have been increasingly gained attentions by many scientists and farmers. Hot pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) is an important vegetable crop mostly grown in open-fields in South Korea. In this study, the impacts of prolonged heat stress on three hot pepper genotypes differing by levels of stress susceptibility were evaluated. The study was conducted in two different temperature-controlled greenhouses for 75 days. 48 days old plants were grown in control and heat-treated greenhouses where the temperatures had been set at 30 °C and 35 °C during the day for 75 days, respectively. Morphological, physiological, and nutrient characteristics of three accessions were measured. All hot pepper accessions were enabled to recover from prolonged heat stress exposures within approximately a month. The phenomenon of recovery was observed in some significant morphological and physiological characteristics. For example, the plant growth rate and photosynthesis rate significantly increased after 40th days of heat treatment. The heat stress sensitivity varied between genotypes. The plants that produced more fruits over biomass at early stage of heat treatment had relatively slow recovery, resulting in the largest yield loss. This key morphological characteristic can be used for future breeding program to adapt the prolonged heat stress.

Leaf-induced callus formation in two cultivars: hot pepper 'CM334' and bell pepper 'Dempsey'.

Project description:Pepper (Capsicum annuum), one of the most economically important vegetables of the Solanaceae family, is cultivated worldwide. To apply versatile genome-editing tools to a pepper genome for precise molecular breeding, an in vitro regeneration protocol is indispensable and callus formation is an essential step in the regeneration of pepper. Here, we show that calli were successfully induced from young leaves (3-4 cm) of pepper plants, the hot pepper C. annum 'CM334' ('CM334') and bell pepper C. annum 'Dempsey' ('Dempsey'), grown on soil for less than 7 weeks. The excised leaf segments of 'CM334' produced white calli in B5 medium containing 3% sucrose (3S), 2 mg/L 6-benzylaminopurine (2BAP), and 1 mg/L α-naphthalene acetic acid (1NAA). The calli were able to proliferate in B5 3S 2BAP medium supplemented with 2-morpholinoethanesulphonic acid (MES) and 1.5 mg/L NAA (1.5NAA). The excised leaf segments of 'Dempsey' produced light-yellow and friable calli in MS medium supplemented with B5 vitamins (MSB5), 3S and 1 mg/L 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (1 2,4D), and the calli were also maintained in the same medium. Our findings establish the conditions for leaf-derived callus formation, which is the basis for regeneration of whole plants for two different pepper cultivars, for obtaining stable protoplasts, and eventually for applying genome-editing tools to improve the quality of peppers.

The hot pepper (Capsicum annuum) microRNA transcriptome reveals novel and conserved targets: a foundation for understanding MicroRNA functional roles in hot pepper.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs approximately 21 nt in length which play important roles in regulating gene expression in plants. Although many miRNA studies have focused on a few model plants, miRNAs and their target genes remain largely unknown in hot pepper (Capsicum annuum), one of the most important crops cultivated worldwide. Here, we employed high-throughput sequencing technology to identify miRNAs in pepper extensively from 10 different libraries, including leaf, stem, root, flower, and six developmental stage fruits. Based on a bioinformatics pipeline, we successfully identified 29 and 35 families of conserved and novel miRNAs, respectively. Northern blot analysis was used to validate further the expression of representative miRNAs and to analyze their tissue-specific or developmental stage-specific expression patterns. Moreover, we computationally predicted miRNA targets, many of which were experimentally confirmed using 5' rapid amplification of cDNA ends analysis. One of the validated novel targets of miR-396 was a domain rearranged methyltransferase, the major de novo methylation enzyme, involved in RNA-directed DNA methylation in plants. This work provides the first reliable draft of the pepper miRNA transcriptome. It offers an expanded picture of pepper miRNAs in relation to other plants, providing a basis for understanding the functional roles of miRNAs in pepper.

Universal constant for heat production in protists.

Project description:Using a high sensitivity differential scanning calorimeter in isothermal mode, we directly measured heat production in eukaryotic protists from 5 phyla spanning over 5 orders of magnitude in carbon biomass and 8 orders of magnitude in cell volume. Our results reveal that metabolic heat production normalized to cell mass is virtually constant in these organisms, with a median of 0.037 pW pg C(-1) (95% confidence interval = 0.022-0.061 pW pg C(-1)) at 5 degrees C. Contrary to allometric models, the relationship between heat production and cell carbon content or surface area is isometric (scaling exponents, 1.056 and 1.057, respectively). That heat production per unit cell surface area is constant suggests that heat flux through the cell surface is effectively instantaneous, and hence that cells are isothermal with their environment. The results further suggest that allometric models of metabolism based on metazoans are not applicable to protists, and that the underlying metabolic processes in the latter polyphyletic group are highly constrained by evolutionary selection. We propose that the evolutionary constraint leading to a universally constant heat production in single-celled eukaryotes is related to cytoplasmic packaging of organelles and surface area to volume relationships controlling diffusion of resources to these organelles.

Too Hot to Handle: Antibacterial Peptides Identified in Ghost Pepper.

Project description:Capsicum spp. (hot peppers) demonstrate a range of interesting bioactive properties spanning anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activities. While several species within the genus are known to produce antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), AMP sequence mining of genomic data indicates this space remains largely unexplored. Herein, in silico AMP predictions were paired with peptidomics to identify novel AMPs from the interspecific hybrid ghost pepper (Capsicum chinense × frutescens). AMP prediction algorithms revealed 115 putative AMPs within the Capsicum chinense genome, of which 14 were identified in the aerial tissue peptidome. PepSAVI-MS, de novo sequencing, and complementary approaches were used to fully molecularly characterize two novel AMPs, CC-AMP1 and CC-AMP2, including elucidation of a pyroglutamic acid post-translational modification of CC-AMP1 and disulfide bond connectivity of both. Both CC-AMP1 and CC-AMP2 have little homology with known AMPs and exhibited low μM antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative bacteria, including Escherichia coli. These findings demonstrate the complementary nature of peptidomics, bioactivity-guided discovery, and bioinformatics-based investigations to characterize plant AMP profiles.

Determination of 113 pesticides in hot pepper powder in Korea.

Project description:In five regions of Korea, a total of 963 hot pepper powder samples were analyzed for 113 pesticides and one synergist using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. For three years, sampling was performed every producing day in production plants according to ISO 24153 : 2009 methods. The limit of detection and limit of quantification ranges were 0.17-1.46 and 0.52-4.44 µg kg-1, respectively. The recovery ranges were 62.8-128.6% when spiked with 10 and 100 µg kg-1 of pesticides. Certified reference materials, such as chlorfenapyr and indoxacarb, were used for the validation of the analytical method. In total, 21 pesticides and one synergist were detected. Six pesticides, chlorfenapyr, indoxacarb, chlorantraniliprole, cypermethrin, difenoconazole, and pendimethalin, were detected at more than 50%, and nine pesticides, cyhalothrin, fenvalerate, picoxystrobin, deltamethrin, pyridalyl, propiconazole, iprodione, prochloraz, and bifenthrin, were detected at more than 10%. All monitoring results were under the Korean maximum residue limit.

A coupled model of photosynthesis, stomatal conductance and transpiration for a rose leaf (Rosa hybrida L.).

Project description:The following three models were combined to predict simultaneously photosynthesis, stomatal conductance, transpiration and leaf temperature of a rose leaf: the biochemical model of photosynthesis of Farquhar, von Caemmerer and Berry (1980, Planta 149: 78-90), the stomatal conductance model of Ball, Woodrow and Berry (In: Biggens J, ed. Progress in photosynthesis research. The Netherlands: Martinus Nijhoff Publishers), and an energy balance model. The photosynthetic parameters: maximum carboxylation rate, potential rate of electron transport and rate of triose phosphate utilization, and their temperature dependence were determined using gas exchange data of fully expanded, young, sunlit leaves. The stomatal conductance model was calibrated independently. Prediction of net photosynthesis by the coupled model agreed well with the validation data, but the model tended to underestimate rates of stomatal conductance and transpiration. The coupled model developed in this study can be used to assist growers making environmental control decisions in glasshouse production.

Self-Optimized Catalysts: Hot-Electron Driven Photosynthesis of Catalytic Photocathodes.

Project description:Photogenerated hot electrons from plasmonic nanostructures are very promising for photocatalysis, mostly due to their potential for enhanced chemical selectivity. Here, we present a self-optimized fabrication method of plasmonic photocathodes using hot-electron chemistry, for enhanced photocatalytic efficiencies. Plasmonic Au/TiO2 nanoislands are excited at their surface plasmon resonance to generate hot electrons in an aqueous bath containing a platinum (cocatalyst) precursor. Hot electrons drive the deposition of Pt cocatalyst nanoparticles, without any nanoparticle functionalization and negligible applied bias, close to the hotspots of the plasmonic nanoislands. The presence of TiO2 is crucial for achieving higher chemical reaction rates. The Au/TiO2/Pt photocathodes synthesized using hot-electron chemistry show a photocatalytic activity of up to 2 times higher than that of a control made with random electrodeposited Pt nanoparticles. This light-driven positioning of the cocatalyst close to the same positions where hot electrons are most efficiently generated and transferred represents a novel and simple method for synthesizing complex, self-optimized photocatalytic nanostructures with improved efficiency and selectivity.
