Integrating physiological features and proteomic analyses provides new insight in blue/red light-treated moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis)

ABSTRACT: Bamboo is one of the most important non-timber forestry products in the world. Light is not only the most critical source of energy for plant photosynthesis, but also involved in regulating the biological processes of plants. However, there are few reports on how blue/red light affects moso bamboo. This study investigated the growth status and physiological responses of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) to blue and red light treatments. The growth status of the bamboo plants was evaluated under different light conditions, revealing that both blue and red light treatments promoted plant height and overall growth compared to the dark treatment. Gas exchange parameters, chlorophyll fluorescence, and enzyme activity were measured to assess the photosystem response of moso bamboo to light treatments. Both blue and red light treatments significantly increased the net photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance of the bamboo plants. Additionally, the blue light treatment led to higher chlorophyll content and enzyme activities related to photosynthesis and oxidative phosphorylation compared to the red light treatment.

Project description:The cold acclimation process is regulated by many factors like ambient temperature, day length, light intensity, or hormonal status. Experiments with plants grown under different light-quality conditions indicate that the plant response to cold is also a light-quality-dependent process. Here, the role of light quality in the cold response was studied in one-month-old Arabidopsis thaliana (Col‐0) plants exposed for one week to 4 °C at short‐day conditions under white (100 and 20 μmol m‐2s‐1), blue or red (20 μmol m‐2s‐1) light conditions. An upregulated expression of CBF1, an inhibition of photosynthesis, and an increase in membrane damage showed that blue light enhanced the effect of low temperature. Interestingly, cold-treated plants under blue and red light showed only limited freezing tolerance compared to white light cold-treated plants. Next, the specificity of the light quality signal in cold response was evaluated in Arabidopsis accessions originating from different and contrasting latitudes. In all but one Arabidopsis accessions, blue light increased the effect of cold on photosynthetic parameters and electrolyte leakage. This effect was not found for Ws-0, which lacks functional CRY2 protein, indicating its role in the cold response. Proteomics data confirmed significant differences between red and blue light treated plants at low temperature and showed that the cold response is highly accession specific. In general, blue light increased mainly the cold-stress related proteins and red light induced higher expression of chloroplast-related proteins, which correlated with higher photosynthetic parameters in red light cold-treated plants. Altogether, our data suggest that light modulates two distinct mechanisms during the cold treatment - red light driven cell function maintaining program and blue light activated specific cold response. The importance of mutual complementarity of these mechanisms was demonstrated by significantly higher freezing tolerance of cold-treated plants under white light.

Project description:Orchid Dendrobium Sonia (Sonia) has wide demand in floral market throughout the world due to its vibrant coloured flowers, flowering recurrence and dense inflorescence. Effects of different monochromatic light qualities (red, far-red, blue, white) on different developmental and growth responses such as seed gemination, shoot and root growth, chlorophyll and carotenoid accumulation were studied in Sonia. Asymbiotic seed germination was the highest under blue or white light (80%, p<0.001) and least under far-red (55%, p<0.001) suggesting that it could either be controlled by an exceptional novel function of Cryptochrome 1 or the blue wavelengths perceived by PHYA or PHYB in Sonia. All analyses were done in 6-months-old plants till 1 year of age. Shoot length increased significantly in white or red light (3.7-fold, 3.5-fold respectively) while was least under far-red (decreased by 1.6-fold) indicating the major regulatory role of PHYB for shoot growth. Root growth in red in Sonia was more similar to hypocotyl adventitious root (HAR) formation genetically considering PHYB transcript expression. We suggest that the root growth (HAR) under red in Sonia is partly attributed to PHYB, negatively regulated with HY5 transcription factor and positively associated with auxin biosynthesis and accumulation gene BABY BOOM (BBM2) and efflux carriers such as LIKE AUXIN RESISTANT 2 and 3 (LAX2, LAX3). Highest chlorophyll content under far-red and blue might be a hyper-response of SAR under FR light in Sonia. Taxonomic tree analysis finds Sonia closer to Phalenopsis and Dendrobium catenatum Lindl. The three phytochromes and one cryptochrome sequences which were similar to PHYA, B, C and CRY1 respectively. CRY1 was retrieved with one more isoform CRY1_X2, with all these sequences more similar to those of Oryza.sativa. Further study can clarify the indicating reason of a probable gene loss which is evident from the absence of any sequence similar to CRY2 in root RNA isolates of Dendrobium Sonia.
