Project description:MicroRNA172 (miR172) plays a role in regulating a diverse range of plant developmental processes. However, its role in regulating anthocyanin biosynthesis is unclear. In this study, we show that transgenic apple plants over-expressing miR172 show a reduction in red colouration and anthocyanin accumulation in multiple tissue types. This reduction was consistent with decreased expression of APETALA2 homolog MdAP2_1a (a miR172 target gene), MdMYB10, and targets of MdMYB10, as demonstrated by both RNA-seq and RT-PCR analyses. During the onset of anthocyanin biosynthesis in apple fruit skin, miR172 transcript abundance was negatively correlated and MdAP2_1a mRNA concentration was positively correlated with fruit skin red-colouration. The positive role of MdAP2_1a in regulating anthocyanin biosynthesis was supported by the enhanced petal anthocyanin accumulation in transgenic tobacco plants overexpressing MdAP2_1a, and by the reduction in anthocyanin accumulation in apple and cherry fruits transfected with an MdAP2_1a virus-induced-gene-silencing construct. We demonstrated that MdAP2_1a could bind directly to the promoter and protein sequences of MdMYB10 in yeast and tobacco, and enhance MdMYB10 promotor activity. In Arabidopsis, over-expression of miR172 reduced anthocyanin concentration and RNA transcript abundance of anthocyanin genes in plantlets cultured on medium containing 7% sucrose. The anthocyanin content and RNA abundance of anthocyanin genes could be partially restored by using a synonymous mutant of MdAP2_1a, which had lost the miR172 target sequences at mRNA level, but not restored by using a WT MdAP2_1a. These results indicate that miR172 inhibits anthocyanin biosynthesis through suppressing the expression of an AP2 transcription factor that positively regulates MdMYB10.

Project description:We found that Arabidopsis plants constitutively expressing OsRR6 exhibit reduced cytokinin sensitivity, adventitious root formation and enhanced anthocyanin accumulation. In addition they are hypersensitive to red, far-red and blue light in hypocotyl growth assay and also flower little early as compared to wild type.Therefore, to identify the downstream pathways affected in the OsRR6 overexpression plants, we performed transcriptome profiling of overexpression line vs wild type using Affymetrix microarray platform.

Project description:Earlier findings indicated that light plays a critical role in the development of frost tolerance in winter cereals. However, the exact mechanism is still poorly understood. In the present work the effects of light during the cold acclimation period were studied in chilling-sensitive maize plants. The results show that although exposure to relatively high light intensities during cold acclimation at 15 °C causes various stress symptoms, it enhances the effectiveness of acclimation to chilling conditions (5 °C in the light). Interestingly, certain stress responses were light-dependent not only in the leaves, but also in the roots. A microarray study was also conducted to achieve a better understanding of the interaction of low temperature and light intensity during the cold hardening period. Numerous genes significantly differentially expressed were observed in almost all assimilation and metabolic pathways. Acclimation at moderately low temperature and low light intensity reduced the level of soluble sugars, while chilling increased it. Greater accumulation during hardening was detected at relatively high light intensity. It seems that the photoinhibition induced by low temperature is a necessary evil for cold acclimation processes in plants.

Project description:Abiotic stress is a major limitation on agricultural crop productivity and the steady rising of ambient air temperatures due to global climate change are predicted to have a negative impact on plant growth and crop yield. Plants using equipped with the C4 pathway of photosynthesis are thought to have evolved under warm and dry conditions and it is hypothesized that this biochemical and anatomical specialization serves to alleviate the cost of photorespiration at higher temperatures by saturating Rubisco with CO2. In this study Setaria viridis, an emerging C4 model grass, was grown under high temperature for two weeks (42°C as compared to 28°C). High temperature resulted in stunted growth, but surprisingly had little impact on leaf area based photosynthetic rates. Rates of dark respiration significantly increased and there were major alterations in carbon and nitrogen metabolism in the heat-stressed plants, including reduced starch levels, accumulation of soluble sugars and an increase in leaf nitrogen content. The levelsMeasurements of major phytohormones showed revealed a dramatic increase in abscisic acid in the heat-stressed plants. Leaf transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics analyses were carried out and mapped onto metabolic pathways of photosynthesis, respiration, carbon/nitrogen metabolism and hormone synthesis and signaling. Overall, an upregulation of a number of stress signaling pathways was observed, consistent with multiple potent signals leading to reduced plant growth. A systems model of plant response is presented based on oxidative stress, hormone and sugar signaling pathways.

Project description:n Arabidopsis and other species, anthocyanin accumulation specifically depends on light signaling. The CONSTITUTIVELY PHOTOMORPHOGENIC1/SUPPRESSOR OF PHYA-105 (COP1/SPA) complex is required for the control of anthocyanin biosynthesis in response to light, but the precise mechanism underlying this process is largely unknown. Here we report that Increase in BONSAI Methylation 1 (IBM1), a JmjC domain-containing histone demethylase, participates in the regulation of light-induced anthocyanin biosynthesis in Arabidopsis. Loss-of-function mutations of IBM1 lead to accelerated anthocyanin accumulation in high light. We further identified that IBM1 is directly associated with SPA1/2/3 chromatin in vivo, whereas knockout of IBM1 resulted in an elevated level of H3K9 methylation and DNA non-CG sites within SPA genes, thereby repressing their expression. Transgenic ibm1 plants overexpressing SPA1demonstrated that SPA1 was capable of complementing the mutant phenotype. Our results reveal a novel mechanism that controls the epigenetic regulation of anthocyanin biosynthesis and offer insight into how plant adapt to high light stress. This study could contribute to a better understanding of the linkage between light signaling and anthocyanin biosynthesis in plants

Project description:Trehalose-6-phosphate (T6P) serves as a pivotal signaling molecule, sensing sucrose availability and carbon metabolism. However, the mechanisms governing the regulation of T6P synthase (TPS) genes responsible for anthocyanin accumulation under conditions of low N and high sucrose remain elusive. In a previous study, we demonstrated the positive impact of a cytoplasm-localized class II TPS protein ‘BnaC02.TPS8’ on photosynthesis and seed yield improvement in Brassica napus. Ectopic overexpression of BnaC02.TPS8 in Arabidopsis seedlings resulted in elevated shoot T6P levels under N-sufficient conditions, as well as an increased carbon-to-nitrogen (C/N) ratio, sucrose accumulation, and starch storage under low N conditions. Overexpression of BnaC02.TPS8 in Arabidopsis heightened sensitivity to low N stress and high sucrose levels, accompanied by increased anthocyanin accumulation and upregulation of genes involved in flavonoid biosynthesis and regulation.

Project description:Chilling is a major stress which adversely decreases photosynthesis and leads to oxidative stress in thermophilic plants. The role of melatonin (MT) in stress response of plants, has so far been investigated, while the mechanisms by which MT regulate photosynthesis in chilling-sensitive cucumber under chilling stress remain unclear. In this paper, we reported MT positively regulated chilling tolerance of cucumber. Moreover, MT showed a concentration-dependent manner and 1.0 μmol·L-1 was the optimum concentration, of which the chilling injury index, EL and MDA were the lowest, while growth was the highest among all the treatments. Further studies indicated that MT triggered the activity and expression of the antioxidant enzymes, which in turn decreased ROS accumulation caused by chilling stress. Meanwhile, MT maintained a high photosynthetic carbon assimilation capacity, increased the activity of PSI reaction center, PSII reaction center and electron transfer efficiency. More importantly, the proteome analysis and western-blot data revealed that PSI-associated proteins (PsaD, PsaE, PsaF, PsaH and PsaN), PSII-associated protein D1 as well as Rubisco large subunit and RCA were significantly up-regulated in MT-treated seedlings, compared to H2O-treated seedlings under chilling stress. These results suggest that MT enhances chilling tolerance of cucumber via activating the antioxidant system as well as protein level of key PSI-, PSII-related and carbon assimilation enzymes to decrease ROS accumulation, and finally alleviates the damage to photosynthetic apparatus under chilling stress.

Project description:Ascorbate (vitamin C) is an important antioxidant in leaves with multiple functions in photosynthesis and its levels are tightly regulated by light quality. The majority of work to date has focussed on regulation of ascorbate levels via biosynthesis. However, the pathway of ascorbate degradation, which is localised in the apoplast may additionally play a significant role. The degradative pathway begins with ascorbate oxidation by the enzyme ascorbate oxidase (AO) and hence we have examined the impact of manipulation of ascorbate oxidase activity on the content of ascorbate and the acclimation of photosynthesis to changing light levels. Leaf ascorbate content was highly light dependent in Nicotiana tobaccum being double in high compared with low light conditions. In contrast ascorbate oxidase activity was not altered by changing light levels. Transgenic tobacco lines with reduced or enhanced AO activity exhibited no morphological phenotype and photosynthesis under high light was similarly impaired irrespective of the measured AO activity. However further investigation between AO activity and leaf acclimation to changing light intensity revealed a suite of metabolic and transcriptome changes indicating a role for the apoplastic ascorbate pool in chloroplast to nucleus communication. In all genotypes, transcripts associated with ascorbate synthesis and recycling were less abundant following transition from high to low light. However transcripts associated with glutathione recycling, light harvesting, reaction centre function and the Calvin cycle were all increased in abundance. Following the transition from high to low light increases in leaf threonate, an ascorbate degradation product, were proportional to AO activity. A number of chloroplast synthesised amino acids were significantly increased both during high light and following transfer back to LL for 12 h. Similarly, several primary carbohydrates and TCA intermediates were significantly enhanced following high light treatment. In addition to light effects, AO activity had a significant impact on ï¢-alanine, aspartate and threonine. Intriguingly, a large number of fatty acids were reduced in antisense AO and wild-type plants immediately after high light stress however the content of these compounds were significantly increased in overexpressing sense lines. We conclude that AO mediated turnover plays an important role in adjusting cellular ascorbate content to photosynthetic need in a fluctuating light environment and that light mediated signals rapidly adjust that the apoplastic ascorbate pool.

Project description:The extent to which light-saturated net CO2 assimilation (An) and leaf dark respiratory CO2 release (Rdark) jointly acclimate to abrupt and sustained changes in temperature (T) in rice (Oryza sativa L.) is unclear, as are the underlying mechanisms associated with thermal acclimation. To further our understanding of how sustained changes in temperature affect the carbon economy of rice, hydroponically-grown plants of the IR64 cultivar were developed at 30/25°C (day/night) in a temperature-controlled greenhouse before being shifted to 25/20°C or 40/35°C. Leaf RNA expression, protein abundance, sugar and starch content, gas-exchange and elongation rates were measured on pre-existing leaves (PE) already developed at 30/25°C, or leaves newly-developed (ND) subsequent to temperature transfer.

Project description:The proper accumulation of BBX22 mediated by COP1 is crucial for plants to maintain better growth fitness when growing in the dark environment as well as responding to seasonal changes in day-length. The constitutive-photomorphogenic development of the cop1 mutant is enhanced in cop1BBX22-GFPox plants, which show a short hypocotyl, high anthocyanin accumulation and expression of light-responsive genes. Target genes responsible for the exaggerated light phenotype in cop1BBX22-GFPox plants were revealed by comparing transcriptomes among dark-grown wild-type, cop1 and cop1BBX22-GFPox plants. Expression of genes regulated by light and multiple hormones are altered in plants over-accumulating BBX22, implying a coordination role of BBX22 in light- and hormone-mediated seedling development.
