The Solanum lycopersicum PIF8a predominantly regulate the low R/FR response in tomato

ABSTRACT: PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTORs (PIFs) regulate growth-related gene expression in response to environmental conditions. Among their diverse functions in regulating signal responses, PIFs play an important role in thermomorphogenesis (the response to increased ambient temperature) and in the shade-avoidance response. While numerous studies have examined the varied roles of PIFs in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis Thaliana), their roles in crop plants remain poorly investigated. This study delves into the conservation of PIFs activity among species by examining their functions in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) and comparing them to known PIF functions in Arabidopsis using single and higher-order mutants of tomato PIF genes (SlPIFs). We demonstrate that, in contrast to Arabidopsis, PIFs are not required for thermomorphogenesis-induced stem elongation in tomato. In addition, whereas Arabidopsis PIF8 has a minor effect on plant growth, tomato SlPIF8a plays a key role in the low red/far-red (R/FR) response. In contrast, SlPIF4 and SlPIF7s play minor roles in this process. We also investigated the tissue-specific low R/FR response in tomato seedlings and demonstrate that the aboveground organs exhibit a conserved response to low R/FR, which is regulated by SlPIFs. Our findings provide insights into PIF-mediated responses in crop plants, which may guide future breeding strategies to enhance yield under high planting densities.

Expression data from WT (Columbia) and pifq (pif1pif3pif4pif5) mutant Arabidopsis seedlings

Expression data from WT (Columbia) and pifq (pif1pif3pif4pif5) mutant Arabidopsis seedlings

Project description:Plants respond to changes in the red:far red ratio (R:FR) of incident light. A reduction in this ratio (increase in FR) results in the Shade Avoidance Response (SAR) with associated changes in gene expression. The Phyotchrome-Interacting Factors (PIFs) are bHLH transcription factors known to be involved in the SAR. An analysis of changes in gene expression in WT and quadruple pif1pif3pif4pif5 (pifq; Leivar et al., 2008 (PMID 19920208)) mutant seedlings in response to an increase in FR should identify primary targets of PIF signaling. We used microarrays to examine the SAR in WT (Columbia) and pifq mutant Arabidopsis seedlings. Arabidopsis WT and pifq mutant seeds were plated on GM medium without sucrose at room temperature. During this procedure, the seeds were routinely exposed to white light (WL) for a total of 1.5 hours after imbibition. Seeds were then stratified for 5 days at 4ºC in darkness, and then grown in WL (19 umol/m2/s, R/FR ratio of 6.48) for 2 days at 21°C (WL0 samples). Two-day-old WL-grown seedlings were then maintained in the same fluence rate of WL supplemented with far-red light (WL-FR, R/FR ratio of 0.006) for 1 (FR1), 3 (FR3) or 24 (FR24) hours before harvesting. Control seedlings were also maintained in parallel in the same fluence rate of WL for 24h (WL24) before harvesting. Three different biological replicates of each treatment were grown separately and extracted, processed, and analyzed independently.

Expression data from epidermis specific phytochrome B or global phytochrome B line comparing to phyB-9 mutant.

Project description:Seedling hypocotyls display negative gravitropism in the dark but agravitropism in the light. The Arabidopsis thaliana pif quadruple mutant (pifQ), which lacks four PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTORS (PIFs), is agravitropic in the dark. Endodermis-specific expression of PIF1 rescues gravitropism in pifQ mutant seedlings. Since phytochromes induce light responses by inhibiting PIFs and the COP1-SPA ubiquitin E3 ligase complex in the nucleus, we asked whether phyB can cell autonomously inhibit hypocotyl negative gravitropism in the endodermis. We found that while epidermis-specific expression of PHYB rescues hypocotyl negative gravitropism and all other phyB mutant phenotypes, endodermis-specific expression of PHYB does not. Epidermal phyB induces the phosphorylation and degradation of endodermal PIFs in response to red light. This induces a global gene expression pattern similar to that induced by red light treatment of seedlings expressing PHYB under the control of its own endogenous promoter. Our results imply that epidermal phyB generates an unidentified mobile signal that travels to the endodermis where it promotes PIF degradation and inhibits hypocotyl negative gravitropism.

Arabidopsis De-etiolated 1 Represses Photomorphogenesis by Positively Regulating Phytochrome Interacting Factors in the Dark

Project description:Arabidopsis seedlings undergo photomorphogenic development even in darkness when the function of De-etiolated 1 (DET1), a repressor of photomorphogenesis, is disrupted. Our results indicate that DET1 directly interacts with a group of transcription factors known as the phytochrome-interacting factors (PIFs). Furthermore, our results suggest that DET1 positively regulates PIF protein levels primarily by stabilizing PIF proteins in the dark. Genomic analysis also revealed that DET1 may control the expression of light-regulated genes to mediate photomorphogenesis partially through PIFs. Total of twelve samples, two treatments and three genotypes, and each have three replicates.

Arabidopsis De-etiolated 1 Represses Photomorphogenesis by Positively Regulating Phytochrome Interacting Factors in the Dark

Phytochrome Interacting Factors 4 and 5 redundantly limit seedling de-etiolation in continuous far-red light.

Project description:Phytochromes are red/far red photosensors regulating numerous developmental programs in plants. Among them phytochrome A (phyA) is essential to enable seedling de-etiolation in continuous far-red (FR) light a condition mimicking the environment under a dense canopy. The ecological relevance of this response is demonstrated by the high mortality rate of phyA mutants germinating in deep vegetational shade. phyA signaling involves a direct interaction of the photoreceptor with members of the bHLH transcription factor family, PIF1 and PIF3 (Phytochrome Interacting Factor). Here we investigated the involvement of PIF4 and PIF5 in phyA signaling and found that they redundantly control de-etiolation in FR light. The pif4pif5 double mutant is hypersensitive to low fluence rates of FR light. This phenotype is dependent on FR light perception by phyA but does not rely on alterations of the phyA level. Our microarrays analysis shows that PIF4 and PIF5 are part of an inhibitory mechanism repressing the expression of some light-responsive genes in the dark and are also needed for full expression of several growth-related genes in the light. Unlike PIF1 and PIF3, PIF4 and PIF5 are not degraded in response to FR light indicating that they are light-regulated by a different mechanism. Our genetic analysis suggests that this is achieved through the sequestration of these PIFs by the closely related bHLH transcription factor HFR1 (long Hypocotyl in FR light).

Low red to far-red light environments alter nitrogen assimilation in corn (Zea mays)

Project description:The goal of this work was to investigate the influence of low red to far-red (R:FR) signals generated by a biological weedy and an artificial source of far-red light on the nitrate assimilation pathway in maize. In the absence of direct resource competition, far-red light reflected from neighboring weeds compromises light quality (red to far-red ratio; R/FR) and causes a wide range of morphological and physiological responses at early growth stages of crop plants. This study has investigated the effects of low R/FR light signals on nitrate assimilation in maize seedlings. The transcript levels of genes, metabolites, and activities of enzyme in the nitrate assimilation pathway under a biological and a simulated low R:FR light environment were compared with a high R:FR control environment. Low R:FR signals stimulated nitrate accumulation in maize leaves, which did not appear to result from the upregulation of nitrate transporter genes. A significant reduction in ferredoxin-dependent glutamine:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase activity appears to play a major role in nitrate accumulation under low R:FR light environments, while activities of other enzymes of the nitrate assimilation pathway remain unchanged.

Tomato Shade Avoidance: Unraveling Internode Elongation and Hormonal Harmony

Project description:This study provides a comparison of gene expression in two tomato cultivars, Moneymaker and M82, focusing on first internode and its innermost cell type pith—under two light conditions: white light with far-red supplementation (WL+FR) and the control condition of white light (WL). The samples were harvested at four time points leading to the point where internode elongation could be measured in response to WL+FR. The timepoints were 6, 24, 30, and 48 hours after treatment initiation.
