Rice transcriptional repressor OsTIE1 controls anther dehiscence and male sterility by regulating JA biosynthesis

ABSTRACT: The coordination of pollen viability, stamen filament elongation and anther dehiscence is essential for the successful pollination and reproduction in angiosperms. The hormone jasmonic acid (JA) are crucial for these processes. However, the tight regulation of JA biosynthesis during stamen development is still largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that the rice (Oryza sativa) ERF-associated amphiphilic repression (EAR) motif-containing protein TCP INTERACTOR CONTAINING EAR MOTIF PROTEIN1 (OsTIE1) tightly regulates JA biosynthesis by repressing TEOSINTE BRANCHED1/CYCLOIDEA/PROLIFERATINGCELLFACTORS (TCP) transcription factor OsTCP1/PCF5 during stamen development. The loss of OsTIE1 function in ostie1 mutants causes male sterility. The ostie1 mutants display inviable pollen, the early stamen filament elongation and the precocious anther dehiscence. JA biosynthesis is activated earlier and JA level is precociously increased in anthers of ostie1. The expression of OsTIE1 is developmentally regulated during stamen development. OsTIE1 is localized in nuclei and has transcriptional repression activity. We further show that OsTIE1 directly interacts with OsTCP1, and overexpression of OsTCP1 caused early anther dehiscence resembling that of ostie1. The expression of genes encoding key enzymes of JA biosynthesis including Oryza sativa lipoxygenase (OsLOX) genes is regulated by the OsTIE1-OsTCP1 complex. Our findings discover that the OsTIE1-OsTCP1 module plays critical roles in stamen development by finely tuning JA biosynthesis, and provides a new foundation to create male sterile plants for hybrid seed production.

Project description:In Arabidopsis, jasmonate is required for stamen and pollen maturation. Mutants deficient in jasmonate synthesis, such as opr3, are male-sterile but become fertile when jasmonate is applied to developing flower buds. We have used ATH1 oligonucleotide arrays to follow gene expression in opr3 stamens for 22 hours following jasmonate treatment. In these experiments, a total of 821 genes were specifically induced by jasmonate and 480 repressed. Comparisons with data from previous studies indicate that these genes constitute a stamen-specific jasmonate transcriptome, with a large proportion (70%) of the genes expressed in the sporophytic tissue but not in the pollen. Bioinformatics tools allowed us to associate many of the induced genes with metabolic pathways that are likely up-regulated during jasmonate-induced maturation. Our pathway analysis led to the identification of specific genes within larger families of homologues that apparently encode stamen-specific isozymes. Extensive additional analysis of our dataset identified 13 transcription factors that may be key regulators of the stamen maturation processes triggered by jasmonate. Two of these transcription factors, MYB21 and MYB24, are the only members of subgroup 19 of the R2R3 family of MYB proteins. A myb21 mutant obtained by reverse genetics exhibited shorter anther filaments, delayed anther dehiscence and greatly reduced male fertility. A myb24 mutant was phenotypically wild type, but production of a myb21Â myb24 double mutant indicated that introduction of the myb24 mutation exacerbated all three aspects of the myb21 phenotype. Exogenous jasmonate could not restore fertility to myb21 or myb21Â myb24 mutant plants. Together with the data from transcriptional profiling, these results indicate that MYB21 and MYB24 are induced by jasmonate and mediate important aspects of the jasmonate response during stamen development. Experiment Overall Design: Three replicates for opr3 at each time point of 0 hour, 30 minutes, 2 hours, 8 hours and 22 hourss of either JA or OPDA treatment. One replicate of wild-type stamens. <br><br>Note that data files GSM106833.txt and GSM106907.txt as downloaded from GEO are identical.

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.
