Transcriptional Landscape of Cottont Roots in Response to Salt Stress at Single-cell Resolution

ABSTRACT: Increasing soil salinization has led to severe losses of plant yield and quality. Researching the formation of plant salt tolerance and the molecular mechanism of the salt stress response is therefore urgent. We here take advantage of recent progress in single-cell transcriptomics technology to systematically analyze plant roots response to salt stress, and 57,185 high-quality cells were totally obtained from 5-day-old lateral root tips of Gossypium arboreum under natural growth and different salt-treatment conditions. Eleven cell types with an array of novel marker genes were identified and confirmed with RNA in situ hybridization. Pseudotime analysis on epidermal and root hair cells indicated the differentiation trajectory, and differential root-type cells responding to salt stress resulted in more epidermal and less endodermal cells. Abundant differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were found to be engaged in glycometabolism, reactive oxygen species hemeostasis, and phosphatidylinositol and MAKP signal pathways through functional enrichment analyses. Some candidate DEGs related with transcription factors and plant hormones responding to salt stress were also screened, which requires further functional verification to reveal the regulatory model of the plant roots response to salt stress. Combined with bulk RNA-seq data, a common DEG (Ga08G2497) annotated as Aldo-keto reductase-1 (AKR1) was selected to perform virus-induced gene silencing verification, and the silencing of GaAKR1 gene in G. arboreum resulted in severe stress-susceptibility phenotype, shorter root length, and less number of lateral roots. Physiological and biochemical detection also demonstrated that GaAKR1-silenced plants suffered more serious oxidative damages and, indicating that GaAKR1 might participates in salt tolerance of cotton by oxidation-reduction process. For the first time, we characterized a transcriptional atlas of plant roots under salt stress at a single-cell resolution, which explored the cellular heterogeneity, differential root-type cells, and differentiation trajectory, while providing valuable insights into the molecular mechanism underlying stress tolerance in plants.

Project description:Gene expression patterns in roots of Camelina sativa with enhanced salinity tolerance arising from growth in soil treated with plant growth promoting bacteria producing 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase (ACC deaminase) or from expression of the corresponding acdS gene in transgenic lines. Salinity stress negatively affects crop production. However in camelina, grown in soils treated with PGPB producing 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase (acdS ) or transgenic lines expressing acdS exhibited increased salinity tolerance. AcdS reducing the level of stress ethylene to below the point where it is inhibitory to growth. Gene expression patterns in roots responding to salt stress was affected by the expression of acdS under the control of CaMV 35S or root-specific (rolD) promoters in transgenic lines, or by growth in soils treated with endophytic PGPB producing acdS indicate that the number of the genes were differentially expressed were more assigned to genome III in transgenic plants however in PGPB treated plants the number of the genes were differentially expressed were almost equally assigned to all three genomes. Different promoter may induce different set or even different homeologues genes in camelina with probably the same function in response to salt stress. Though root is not a photosynthetic tissue reduction of the ethylene in root cells has positive effect on plant photosynthetic machinery. The expression of the genes involved in minor CHO metabolism was up-regulated mainly in roots of acdS contain plants during salt stress. Moderate reduction in ethylene production has positive effect on root growth during salt stress but reduction of the ethylene higher than a certain level has negative effect on root growth due to reduction of the expression of the genes involved in root cell elongation. AcdS gene modulating the level of ROS in cells in the level that induce ROS signaling but preventing cellular damage by make a balance on up and down-regulation of the genes involved in oxidation-reduction process in root cells under salinity stress. The acdS containing PGPB (8R6) were mostly effected the ethylene signaling and ABA biosynthesis and signaling in positive way but transgenic line depends to the promoter affecting Auxin, JA and BR signaling or biosynthesis.
