PIF7 is the master regulator of thermomorphogenesis in shade [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: The size and shape of plant organs are highly responsive to the local environmental conditions. The embryonic stem, or hypocotyl, of the plant is one such organ that displays impressive phenotypic plasticity, and its length is affected by both light and temperature. After sensing surrounding vegetation, hypocotyls of shade avoiding species elongate to outcompete neighbouring plants and secure access to sunlight. A similar elongation response occurs when the plants are grown in high ambient temperatures. Previous studies have shown that this response is mediated by a family of transcription factors called PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTORS (PIFs). However, it is poorly understood how environmental light and temperature interact to affect plants at the morphological and molecular levels. Here, we examine the genetic and molecular basis of the response to low R/FR under warm ambient temperatures. We found that low R/FR combined with warm temperature dominantly regulate by PIF7 and exhibit a synergistic effect on hypocotyl growth, greater than either stimulus alone. While the synergistic response was dependent on PIF7 and the plant hormone auxin, we demonstrate that additional, yet unknown key factor/s must be involved, likely working downstream of the phyB-PIF-auxin module. As shade responses are known to affect crop yield and fruit quality in many species, our findings will improve the predictions of how plants will respond to increased ambient temperatures when grown at high density, a condition in which mutual shading occurs. In addition, we point out key factors in this response that can potentially be modulated to minimize the negative effect on yield.

PIF7 is the master regulator of thermomorphogenesis in shade [ChIP-seq]

Project description:The size and shape of plant organs are highly responsive to environmental conditions. The plant's embryonic stem, or hypocotyl, displays phenotypic plasticity, in response to light and temperature. The, hypocotyl of shade avoiding species elongate to outcompete neighbouring plants and secure access to sunlight. Similar elongation occurs in high temperature. PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTORS (PIFs) family transcription are known to be importenet players in these responses. However, it is poorly understood how environmental light and temperature interact to affect plants development. We found that low R/FR combined with warm temperature produces a synergistic hypocotyl growth response that dependent on PIF7 and the hormone auxin. We demonstrate that additional, unknown factor/s must be working downstream of the phyB-PIF-auxin module. As shade responses are known to affect yield, susceptibility to pathogens, and fruit quality in many species, our findings will improve the predictions of how plants will respond to increased ambient temperatures when grown at high density, a condition in which mutual shading occurs.

PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTOR 7 and RELATIVE OF EARLY FLOWERING 6 act in shade avoidance memory in Arabidopsis

Project description:Shade avoidance helps plants maximize their access to light for growth under crowding. It is unknown, however, whether a priming shade avoidance mechanism exists that allows plants to respond more effectively to successive shade conditions. Here, we show that the shade-intolerant plant Arabidopsis can remember a first experienced shade event and respond more efficiently to the next event on hypocotyl elongation. The transcriptional regulator PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTOR 7 (PIF7) and the histone H3K27-demethylase RELATIVE OF EARLY FLOWERING 6 (REF6) were identified as being required for this shade avoidance memory. RNA-sequencing analysis revealed that shade induction of shade memory-related genes was impaired in the pif7 and ref6 mutants. Based on the enrichments of H3K27me3, REF6 and PIF7, we found that priming shade treatment induced PIF7 accumulation, which further recruited REF6 to demethylate H3K27me3 on the chromatin of certain memory-related genes, leading to a state poised for their transcription. Upon the second shade treatment, enhanced shade-mediated induction of these genes resulted in stronger hypocotyl growth responses. We conclude that the transcriptional memory mediated by epigenetic modification plays a key role in the ability of primed plants to remember previously experienced shade and acquire enhanced responses to recurring shade conditions.

MicroRNA156 conditions auxin sensitivity to enable growth plasticity in response to environmental changes in Arabidopsis (miRNA-Seq)

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play diverse roles in plant development, but whether and how miRNAs participate in thermomorphogenesis remains ambiguous. Here we show that HYPONASTIC LEAVES1 (HYL1) – a key component of microRNA biogenesis – acts downstream of the thermal regulator PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTOR 4 in temperature-dependent plasticity of hypocotyl growth in Arabidopsis. A hyl1-2 suppressor screen identified a dominant dicer-like1 (dcl1) allele, dcl1-24, which rescues hyl1-2’s defects in miRNA biosynthesis and warm temperature-induced hypocotyl elongation. Genome-wide miRNA and transcriptome analysis reveal microRNA156 (miR156) and its target SQUAMOSA PROMOTER-BINDING-LIKE 9 (SPL9) as critical regulators of thermomorphogenesis. Surprisingly, perturbation of the miR156/SPL9 module disengages seedling responsiveness to warm temperatures by impeding auxin sensitivity. Moreover, the miR156-dependent auxin sensitivity also operates in the shade avoidance response at lower temperatures. Thus, these results unveil the miRNA156/SPL9 module as a previously-uncharacterized genetic circuitry that enables plant growth plasticity in response to environmental temperature and light changes.

The histone H3K27 demethylase REF6/JMJ12 Promotes thermomorphogenesis in Arabidopsis

Project description:Dynamic trimethylation of histone H3 at Lys27 (H3K27me3) affects gene expression and controls plant development and environmental responses. In Arabidopsis thaliana, RELATIVE OF EARLY FLOWERING 6/JUMONJI DOMAIN-CONTAINING PROTEIN 12 (REF6/JMJ12) demethylates H3K27me3 by recognizing a specific DNA motif; however, little is known about how REF6 activates target gene expression after recognition, especially in environmental responses. In response to warm ambient temperature, plants undergo thermomorphogenesis, which involves accelerated growth, early flowering, and changes in morphology. Here we show that REF6 regulates thermomorphogenesis and cooperates with the transcription factor PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTOR 4 (PIF4) to synergistically activate thermo-responsive genes under warm ambient temperature. The ref6 loss-of-function mutants exhibited attenuated hypocotyl elongation at warm temperature, partially due to down-regulation of GIBBERELLIN 20-OXIDASE2 (GA20ox2) and BASIC HELIX-LOOP-HELIX 87 (bHLH87). REF6 enzymatic activity is necessary for warm ambient temperature responses. Together, our results provide direct evidence of an epigenetic modifier and a transcription factor working together to respond to the environment.

Genome-wide analysis of transcription and PIF7 DNA binding in response to long days with daily oscillating temperatures in Arabidopsis thaliana

Project description:This study aimed to characterise the genome-wide PIF7-mediated responses of Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings to long photoperiods with a warm 27°C midday in comparison to long photoperiods at constant 17°C. Transcriptomic responses were observed in Col-0 wild-type and pif7-1 loss-of-function mutants investigate the potential contribution of the transcription factor PIF7 to the warm temperature response under the described conditions. In parallel, ChIP-seq of a PIF7-MYC-expressing line under the same conditions was employed to investigate global DNA binding changes of PIF7 in response to a change in temperature.

B-box family proteins BBX18 and BBX23 control thermoresponsive hypocotyl growth in Arabidopsis

Project description:Plants coordinate their growth and developmental programs with various endogenous signals and environmental challenges such as seasonal and diurnal temperature fluctuations. The bHLH transcription factor PIF4 plays critical roles in thermoresponsive hypocotyl growth in Arabidopsis, and the evening complex component ELF3 negatively regulates PIF4's activity for downstream gene expression and hypocotyl elongation at elevated temperature. However, how warm temperature signal is transmitted to ELF3 is not known. Here, we report the identification of two B-Box protein BBX18/BBX23 as new regulators of thermomorphogenesis in Arabidopsis. Mutations of BBX18/BBX23 confer reduced thermoresponsive hypocotyl elongation. Overexpression of BBX18 enhances the sensitivity of hypocotyl growth to elevated temperature, which is dependent on the function of PIF4 and RING E3 ligase COP1, respectively. Both BBX18 and BBX23 interact with ELF3 or COP1, relegating the protein abundance of ELF3 at warm temperature. Further, the expression of multiple thermoresponsive genes is impaired in both the PIF4 single mutant and BBX18/BBX23 double mutant. In addition, both the transcription and protein levels of BBX18/BBX23 are up-regulated by elevated ambient temperature. Thus, our findings reveal the important roles of B-Box proteins in plant thermomorphogenesis, and build a new connection from warm temperature information to ELF3 and its downstream signaling components.

phytochrome A-mediated shade avoidance responses

Project description:Arabidopsis is a shade avioding plant. Under simulated shade light with reduced red-to-far red (R:FR) ratio around 0.7, hypocotyls of Arabidopsis seedlings elongate, which is one of the typical shade avoidance responses.We discovered that when the R:FR ratio further decreases to around 0.1 (strong shade), the shade-induced elongation of hypocotyl is abolished and phytochrome A (phyA) mediates this response.In this study, we aim to examine the difference between shade and strong shade treatment and uncover the role of phyA in regulating the shade avoidance responses.

Temporal and spatial frameworks supporting plant responses to vegetation proximity

Project description:After perception of vegetation proximity by the phytochrome photoreceptors, shade-avoider plants initiate a set of responses known as the Shade Avoidance Syndrome (SAS). Shade perception by the phytochrome B (phyB) photoreceptor unleashes the PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTORs (PIFs) and initiates SAS responses. In Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings, shade perception involves rapid and massive changes in gene expression, increases auxin production and promotes hypocotyl elongation. Other components, such as phyA and ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL 5 (HY5), also participate in the shade regulation of the hypocotyl elongation response by repressing it. However, it remains unclear why and how so many regulators with either positive or negative activities modulate the same response. Our physiological, genetic, cellular and transcriptomic analyses showed that (1) these components are organized in two main branches or modules (phyA/HY5 and PIFs/HFR1/SAV3) and (2) the connection between them is dynamic and changes with the time of shade exposure. We propose a model for the regulation of shade-induced hypocotyl elongation in which the temporal and spatial functional importance of the various SAS regulators analyzed in here helps to explain the co-existence of differentiated regulatory branches with overlapping activities. Despite the temporal differences observed between phyA, HY5 and PIFs/HFR1/SAV3, their activities overlap and eventually converge in controlling hypocotyl elongation. Hence, we aimed to further investigate possible convergence points between these two groups of regulators.To expand our understanding of the role and interaction of HY5 and PIF4, PIF5 and PIF7 (PIF457) activities, we carried out RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) of seedlings exposed to different times of shade exposure of four genotypes: wild-type (Col-0), the single mutant hy5, the triple pif457 and the quadruple hy5 pif457.
