Jasmonic acid signaling and glutathione coordinate plant recovery from high light stress

ABSTRACT: High light (HL)-induced chloroplast retrograde signaling originates from the photosynthetic apparatus and regulates nuclear gene expression to enhance photoprotection and coordinate cell metabolism. Here, we analyzed the transcript profiles and accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), stress hormones and small molecule antioxidants to investigate the signaling mechanisms operating under HL stress, and in particular during plant recovery (R) from stress under growth conditions. Exposure to HL for 15 min induced a number of singlet oxygen (1O2) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-responsive genes and accumulation of an oxidative form of glutathione (GSSG) and ascorbate (DHA), the hallmarks of oxidative stress in cells. Prolonged exposure to HL resulted in accumulation of transcripts encoding oxylipin biosynthesis enzymes, leading to accumulation of 12-oxo-phytodienoic acid (OPDA) and jasmonic acid (JA). However, the expression of several JA-responsive genes, already induced by HL, peaked during the R-phase (R-sustained) together with accumulation of JA, reduced glutathione (GSH) and ascorbate (AsA), highlighting the critical role of JA signaling in restoring chloroplast redox balance following HL stress. The involvement of JA signaling in R-sustained gene expression was further confirmed by conducting experiments with JA receptor mutants (coi1). HL exposure of only 2 min was sufficient to induce some R-sustained genes, indicating rapid response of plants to changing light conditions. We propose that ROS production at HL induces the signaling cascade for early oxylipin biosynthesis and OPDA accumulation, while increased accumulation of JA in R-phase activates the genes that fully restore the glutathione metabolism, and ultimately allow recovery from short-term HL stress.

Project description:The allene oxide synthase (AOS) branch and the hydroperoxide lyase (HPL) branch of the oxylipin pathway function in plant responses to diverse stresses and have potential cross-talks between each other in the biosynthesis and signaling regulation, but there is still an absence of direct evidence and detailed information about this communication. Here, we identified and characterized a jasmonates acid (JA) overproduction mutant, cea62, by screening the Constitutive Expression of AOS gene (cea) from rice T-DNA insertion mutant library. Map-based cloning was used to isolate the target gene as the hydroperoxide lyase OsHPL3 gene. The gene expression, HPL enzyme activity and its resulting products, (E)-2-hexenal, were all depleted in the cea62 mutant, which resulted in dramatic JA overproduction and activation of JA signaling in the mutant. Consistent with the formation of the lesion mimic phenotype and the timing of the induction for some defense responsive genes, the activation of JA biosynthesis and signaling was regulated in a developmental way, just as the way by which OsHPL3 was regulated in the wild type plant. Microarray data showed that the JA-governed defense response was greatly activated in the cea62 mutant plant and the cea62 plant obtained enhanced resistance to the bacterial blight pathogen Xanthomonasoryzaepvoryzae (Xoo) T1 strain. Wounding response was attenuated in the cea62 mutant at an early developmental stage, while it was partially recovered when JA levels were elevated at a later developmental stage in the cea62 mutant. But, the wounding response was not altered at different developmental stages in the wild type plant. These findings suggest that these two branches of the oxylipin pathways crosstalked in the biosynthesis and signaling pathways and cooperated with each other to function in diverse stress responses. We compared the gene expression profile in leaf tissues of the wild-type plant and the cea62 mutant after lesion mimic phenotype appeared two months after sowing. Total RNAs were extracted from leaf blades from the rice (Oryza sativa L.) wild-type Nipponbare plant and from leaf blades of the rice (Oryza sativa L.) cea62 mutant in the Nipponbare (ssp japonica) background at two months after sowing. Three replicates of the cea62 mutant and wild type were performed.
