Comparative proteomic analysis for revealing the advantage mechanisms of Salt-tolerant tomato (Solanum lycopersicum)
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Salt stress causes the quality change and significant yield loss of tomato. However, the resources of salt-resistant tomato were still deficient and the mechanisms of tomato resistance to salt stress were still unclear. In this study, the proteomic profiles of two salt-tolerant and salt-sensitive tomato cultivars were investigated to deciphered the salt-resistance mechanism of tomato and provide novel resources for tomato breeding. We found that there is an over-abundant proteins relevant to Nitrate and amino acids metabolisms in the Salt-tolerant cultivars. The significant increase in expression of proteins involved in Brassinolides and GABA biosynthesis were verified in salt-tolerant cultivars, strengthening the salt resistance of tomato. Meanwhile, salt-tolerant cultivars with higher abundance and activity of antioxidant-related proteins have more advantages in dealing with reactive oxygen species caused by salt stress. And the salt-tolerant cultivars had higher photosynthetic activity based on overexpression of proteins functioned in chloroplast, guaranteeing the sufficient nutrient for plant growth under salt stress. Furthermore, three key proteins were identified as important salt-resistant resources for breeding salt-tolerant cultivars, including Sterol side chain reductase, gamma aminobutyrate transaminase and Starch synthase. Our results provided series valuable strategies for salt-tolerant cultivars which can be used in future
