Populus euphratica Apyrases Increase Drought Tolerance by Modulating Stomatal Aperture in Arabidopsis.

ABSTRACT: Stomatal regulation is crucial to reduce water consumption under drought conditions. Extracellular ATP (eATP) serves as a signaling agent in stomatal regulation; however, it is less known whether the eATP mediation of stomatal aperture is linked to apyrases (APYs), the principal enzymes that control the concentration of eATP. To clarify the role of APYs in stomatal control, PeAPY1 and PeAPY2 were isolated from Populus euphratica and transferred into Arabidopsis. Compared with the wild-type Arabidopsis and loss-of-function mutants (Atapy1 and Atapy2), PeAPY1- and PeAPY2-transgenic plants decreased stomatal aperture under mannitol treatment (200 mM, 2 h) and reduced water loss during air exposure (90 min). The role of apyrase in stomatal regulation resulted from its control in eATP-regulated stomatal movements and increased stomatal sensitivity to ABA. The bi-phasic dose-responses to applied nucleotides, i.e., the low ATP (0.3-1.0 mM)-promoted opening and high ATP (>2.0 mM)-promoted closure, were both restricted by P. euphratica apyrases. It is noteworthy that eATP at a low concentration (0.3 mM) counteracted ABA action in the regulation of stomatal aperture, while overexpression of PeAPY1 or PeAPY2 effectively diminished eATP promotion in opening, and consequently enhanced ABA action in closure. We postulate a speculative model of apyrase signaling in eATP- and ABA-regulated stomatal movements under drought.

Project description:BackgroundTo investigate the salt tolerance of Populus talassica × Populus euphratica, morphological and physiological parameters were measured on the second day after the 15th, 30th and 45th days of NaCl treatment, revealing significant effects of NaCl on growth. To further elucidate the mechanisms underlying salt tolerance, transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis were conducted under different NaCl treatments.ResultsThe results of morphological and physiological indexes showed that under low salt treatment, P. talassica × P. euphratica was able to coordinate the growth of aboveground and belowground parts. Under high salt concentration, the growth and water balance of P. talassica × P. euphratica were markedly inhibited. The most significant differences between treatments were observed on the second day after the 45th day of NaCl treatment. Transcriptomic analysis showed that the pathways of gene enrichment in the roots and stems of P. talassica × P. euphratica were different in the salt resistance response. And it involves several core pathways such as plant hormone signal transduction, phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, MAPK signaling pathway-plant, plant- pathogen interaction, carbon metabolism, biosynthesis of amino acids, and several key Transcription factors (TFs) such as AP2/ERF, NAC, WRKY and bZIP. Metabolomic analysis revealed that KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed unique metabolic pathways were enriched in P. talassica × P. euphratica under both 200 mM and 400 mM NaCl treatments. Additionally, while there were some differences in the metabolic pathways enriched in the roots and stems, both tissues commonly enriched pathways related to the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, biosynthesis of cofactors, biosynthesis of amino acids, flavonoid biosynthesis, and ABC transporters. Association analysis further indicated that biosynthesis of amino acids and plant hormone signal transduction pathway play key roles in the response of P. talassica × P. euphratica to salt stress. The interactions between the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and several differentially accumulated metabolites (DAMs), especially the strong association between LOC105124002 and Jasmonoyl-L-Isoleucine (pme2074), were again revealed by the interactions analysis.ConclusionsIn this study, we resolved the changes of metabolic pathways in roots and stems of P. talassica × P. euphratica under different NaCl treatments and explored the associations between characteristic DEGs and DAMs, which provided insights into the mechanisms of P. talassica × P. euphratica in response to salt stress.
