OsbZIP76 interacts with OsNF-YBs and regulates endosperm cellularization in rice (Oryza sativa)

ABSTRACT: Cellularization is a key event during the development of the endosperm. Our understanding of the developmental regulation of cellularization has been limited for plants other than Arabidopsis. We found that the activation of OsbZIP76 coincided with the initiation of cellularization of rice. Either knockdown or knockout of OsbZIP76 led to precocious cellularization. Many genes involved in endosperm development or starch biosynthesis were prematurely activated in the caryopsis at two days after fertilization. The results implied that OsbZIP76 is involved in the regulation of cellularization in rice. As a putative transcription factor, OsbZIP76 alone lacked transcriptional activation activity. However, it was able to interact with OsNF-YB9 and OsNF-YB1, two nuclear factor Y (NF-Y) family transcription factors, both in yeast and in planta. OsbZIP76 and OsNF-YB9 showed similar endosperm-preferential expression patterns and the transiently expressed proteins were colocalized in the epidermal cells of tobacco. As with osnf-yb1 mutants, the osbzip76 mutants showed reduced seed size and reduced apparent amylose content of the seeds. We also confirmed that OsbZIP76 is an imprinted gene in rice, the expression of which depended on the genetic background. Our results suggested that OsbZIP76 is an endosperm-expressed imprinted gene to regulate development of the endosperm in rice.

Genome-wide characterization of cis-acting DNA targets of OsNF-YB1 in rice

Project description:OsNF-YB1 is a transcription factor that plays important roles during rice grain filling. OsNF-YB1 is specifically expressed in aleurone layer of developing endosperm and OsNF-YB1 RNAi lines showed retardation in grain filling and produced small grains with chalky endosperm as well as the altered starch quality. To reveal the transcriptional regulatory framework of OsNF-YB1, we determined OsNF-YB1 DNA binding targets using chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-Seq). ChIP-Seq analysis detected 933 binding peaks distributed 743 neighbor genes. OsNF-YB1 directly regulates genes involved in nutrient transport including sugar and amino acids, and interestingly, different from the reported binding site of NF-Y complex, the GCC-box (a binding motif of ERF transcription factors) was enriched in the binding peaks of OsNF-YB1.

Auxin regulates endosperm cellularization in Arabidopsis

Project description:The endosperm is an ephemeral tissue that nourishes the developing embryo, similar to the placenta in mammals. In most angiosperms, endosperm development starts as a syncytium, in which nuclear divisions are not followed by cytokinesis. The timing of endosperm cellularization largely varies between species, and the event triggering this transition remains unknown. Here we show that increased auxin biosynthesis in the endosperm prevents its cellularization, leading to seed arrest. Auxin-overproducing seeds phenocopy paternal-excess triploid seeds derived from hybridizations of diploid maternal plants with tetraploid fathers. Concurrently, auxin-related genes are strongly overexpressed in triploid seeds, correlating with increased auxin activity. Reducing auxin biosynthesis and signaling reestablishes endosperm cellularization in triploid seeds and restores their viability, highlighting a causal role of increased auxin in preventing endosperm cellularization. We propose that auxin determines the time of endosperm cellularization, and thereby uncovered a central role of auxin in establishing hybridization barriers in plants.

Parental conflict driven regulation of endosperm cellularization by a family of Auxin Response Factors

Project description:The endosperm is a reproductive tissue supporting embryo development. In most flowering plants, the initial divisions of endosperm nuclei are not succeeded by cellularization; this process occurs only after a specific number of mitotic cycles have taken place. The timing of cellularization significantly influences seed viability and size. Previous research implicated auxin as a key factor in initiating nuclear divisions and determining the timing of cellularization. Here we uncover the involvement of a family of clustered auxin response factors (cARFs) as dosage-sensitive regulators of endosperm cellularization. cARFs, maternally expressed and paternally silenced, are shown to induce cellularization, thereby restricting seed growth. Our findings align with the predictions of the parental conflict theory, suggesting that cARFs represent major molecular targets in this conflict. We further demonstrate a recurring amplification of cARFs in the Brassicaceae, suggesting an evolutionary response to parental conflict by reinforcing maternal control over endosperm cellularization. Our study highlights that antagonistic parental control on endosperm cellularization converges on auxin biosynthesis and signalling.

Endosperm cellularization failure induces a dehydration stress response leading to embryo arrest

Project description:The endosperm is a nutritive tissue supporting embryo growth in flowering plants. Most commonly, the endosperm initially develops as a coenocyte (multinucleate cell) and then cellularizes. This process of cellularization is frequently disrupted in hybrid seeds generated by crosses between different flowering plant species or plants that differ in ploidy, resulting in embryo arrest and seed lethality. The reason for embryo arrest upon cellularization failure remains unclear. In this study, we show that triploid Arabidopsis thaliana embryos surrounded by uncellularized endosperm mount an osmotic stress response that is connected to increased levels of abscisic acid (ABA) and enhanced ABA responses. Impairing ABA biosynthesis and signalling aggravated triploid seed abortion, while increasing endogenous ABA levels as well as the exogenous application of ABA induced endosperm cellularization and suppressed embryo growth arrest. Taking these results together, we propose that endosperm cellularization is required to establish dehydration tolerance in the developing embryo, ensuring its survival during seed maturation.

Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of ZH11 and OsNF-YB1 RNAi plants Transcriptomes

Project description:Analysis of gene expression level. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that OsNF-YB1 is specifically expressed in aleurone layer of developing endosperm and suppressed expression of OsNF-YB1 results in a reduced grain-filling rate and small grains. Of the down-regulated genes, the enrichment of transmembrane transport and ATP biosynthetic process is consistent with the decreased grain-filling rate.

Endosperm and maternal-specific expression of EIN2 affects endosperm cellularization and seed size in Arabidopsis

Project description:Seed size is related to plant evolution and crop yield and is affected by genetic mutations, imprinting, and genome dosage. Imprinting is a widespread epigenetic phenomenon in mammals and flowering plants. ETHYLENE INSENSITIVE2 (EIN2) encodes a membrane protein that links the ethylene perception to transcriptional regulation. Interestingly, during seed development EIN2 is maternally-expressed in Arabidopsis and maize, but the role of EIN2 in seed development is unknown. Here we show that EIN2 is expressed specifically in the endosperm, and the maternal-specific EIN2 expression affects temporal regulation of endosperm cellularization. As a result, seed size increases in the genetic cross using the ein2 mutant as the maternal parent or in the ein2 mutant. The maternal-specific expression of EIN2 in the endosperm is controlled by DNA methylation but not by H3K27me3 or by ethylene and several ethylene pathway genes tested. RNA-seq analysis in the endosperm isolated by laser-capture microdissection show upregulation of many endosperm-expressed genes such as AGAMOUS-LIKEs (AGLs) in the ein2 mutant or when the maternal EIN2 allele is not expressed. EIN2 does not interact with DNA and may act through ETHYLENE INSENSITIVE3 (EIN3), a DNA binding protein present in sporophytic tissues, to activate target genes like AGLs, which in turn mediate temporal regulation of endosperm cellularization and seed size. These results provide mechanistic insights into endosperm and maternal-specific expression of EIN2 on endosperm cellularization and seed development, which could help improve seed production in plants and crops.

Expression data from early rice endosperm

Project description:We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying cellularization and identified distinct classes of regulated genes during this process. Rice endosperm at 2 days after pollination(DAP) was selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to obtain the endosperm expression profile at 2 DAP. To that end, we hand-selected endosperm according to morphological criteria at 2 DAP before cellularization.

Rice interploidy crosses disrupt epigenetic regulation, gene expression, and seed development

Project description:Seed development in angiosperms requires a 2:1 maternal-to-paternal genome ratio (2m:1p) in the endosperm. When the ratio is disrupted, the seed development is impaired. Rice interploidy crosses result in endosperm failures. Here we report that the defective endosperm was associated with nonadditive expression of small RNAs and protein-coding genes. Interestingly, 24-nt siRNAs were enriched in the 5’ and 3’ flanking sequences of nonadditively expressed genes in the interploidy crosses and negatively associated with the expression of imprinted genes. Furthermore, some PRC2 gene family members and the genes for DNA methylation including OsMET1b and OsCMT3a were upregulated in the 2X4 cross but repressed in the reciprocal cross. These different epigenetic effects could lead to precocious or delayed cellularization during endosperm development. Notably, many endosperm-preferred genes including starch metabolic and storage protein genes during grain filling were associated with DNA methylation or H3K27me3 and repressed in both 2X4 and 4X2 crosses. WUSCHEL homeobox2 (WOX2)-like (WOX2L), an endosperm-preferred gene, was expressed specifically in the rice endosperm, on contrary to WOX2 expression in the Arabidopsis embryo. CRISPR/Cas9 editing of WOX2L in transgenic rice blocked starch and protein accumulation, resulting in seed abortion. In addition to gene repression, disrupting epigenetic process in the interploidy crosses also induced expression of stress-responsive genes. Thus, maintaining the 2m:1p genome ratio in the endosperm is essential for normal grain development in rice and other cereal crops.
