Project description:Leaf senescence is a highly coordinated and complicated process with the integration of numerous internal and environmental signals. Salicylic acid (SA) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) are two well-defined inducers of leaf senescence, whose contents progressively and inter-dependently increase during leaf senescence via a yet unknown mechanism. Here, we have characterized a newly identified positive regulator of leaf senescence, WRKY75, and demonstrated that knock-down or knock-out of WRKY75 delays, while over-expression of WRKY75 accelerates age-dependent leaf senescence. The WRKY75 transcription is induced by age, SA, H2O2, as well as multiple plant hormones. Meanwhile, WRKY75 is able to promote SA production by inducing the transcription of SA INDUCTION-DEFICIENT 2 (SID2), and suppress H2O2 scavenging partly by repressing the transcription of CATALASE 2 (CAT2). Genetic analysis reveals that the SID2 mutation or an increase of catalase activity rescues the precocious leaf senescence phenotype evoked by WRKY75 over-expression. Based on these results, we propose a “tripartite amplification loop” model in which WRKY75, SA and ROS undergo a gradual but self-sustained rise driven by three interlinked positive feedback regulations. This tripartite amplification loop provides a molecular framework connecting the upstream signals, such as age, ethylene, JA and ABA, to the downstream regulatory network executed by those SA-responsive and H2O2-responsive transcription factors during leaf senescence.

Project description:Here, we investigated the role of STN7 kinase of photosynthetic protein complexes in leaf senescence. Defects in STN7 accelerated leaf yellowing and decreased the efficiency of leaf photosynthetic complexes. To identify STN7 targets, we profiled global proteomes and phosphoproteomes of thylakoid membranes from wild type and STN7 mutant leaves during leaf senescence. Proteome data revealed senescence-associated alterations of protein complexes associated with photosynthesis, translation, lipid metabolism, and stress response during leaf senescence.

Project description:Leaf senescence is governed by a complex regulatory network involving dynamic reprogramming of gene expression. Recent evidence indicates that trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 4 (H3K4me3) alters gene expression during leaf senescence. However, it is largely unknown how histone modification is regulated in an age-dependent manner. We found that JMJ16, an Arabidopsis JmjC-domain containing protein, is a specific H3K4 demethylase that negatively regulates leaf senescence. The histone demethylase activity and the JmjN, JmjC, and FYR domains of JMJ16, but not the zf-C5HC2 domain, are essential for JMJ16 function in the regulation of leaf senescence. Genome-wide analysis revealed a widespread coordinated up-regulation of H3K4me3 and gene expression associated with leaf senescence in the loss-of-function jmj16 mutant compared with the wild type. Genetic analysis indicated that JMJ16 negatively regulates leaf senescence at least partly through repressing the expression of WRKY53 and SAG201, two known positive regulators of leaf senescence. Further analyses demonstrated that JMJ16 associates with WRKY53 and SAG201, and represses precocious expression of WRKY53 and SAG201 in mature leaves by reducing H3K4me3 levels at these loci. Moreover, association of JMJ16 on WRKY53 and SAG201 loci increased at mature stage but decreased at later stage, suggesting that the age-dependent dynamic chromatin association of JMJ16 is required for precise transcriptional activation of SAGs during leaf senescence. Thus, JMJ16 is an important regulator of leaf senescence that demethylates H3K4 at senescence-associated genes in an age-dependent manner.

Project description:To identify marker genes that are specific for N starvation-induced leaf senescence and suitable to detect cultivar differences at early senescence stages prior to chlorophyll loss, the transcriptomes of leaves of two B. napus cultivars differing in stay-green characteristics and N efficiency were analysed four days after senescence induction by the senescence inducers N starvation, leaf shading and leaf detaching.

Project description:Leaf senescence is a developmental process designed for nutrient recycling and relocation to maximize growth competence and reproductive capacity of plants. Thus, plants integrate developmental and environmental signals to precisely control senescence. However, it remains largely elusive as to how plants coordinate genetic, epigenetic, and metabolic pathways for the regulation of senescence. To genetically dissect the complex regulatory mechanism underlying leaf senescence, we identified an early leaf senescence mutant, rse1. RSE1 encodes a putative glycosyltranferase. Loss-of-function mutations in RSE1 resulted in precocious leaf yellowing and up-regulation of senescence maker genes, indicating enhanced leaf senescence. Transcriptome analysis revealed that salicylic acid (SA) and defense signaling cascades were activated in rse1 prior to the onset of leaf senescence. In agreement with the phenotypes, we found that SA accumulation was significantly increased in rse1. We also discovered that the rse1 phenotypes are dependent on SA-INDUCTION DEFICIENT 2 (SID2), indicating a role of SA in accelerated leaf senescence in rse1. Furthermore, RSE1 protein was localized to the cell walls, and rse1 displayed increased glucose contents in the cell walls, implying a possible link between the cell walls and RSE1 function. Together, we show that RSE1 negatively modulate leaf senescence through an SID2-dependent SA signaling pathway.

Project description:Senescence is the ultimate stage of plant development. Among the different levels of senescence processes, flag leaf senescence plays a crucial role in determining grain quality in rice. In the present study, efforts are made to identify the possible involvement of miRNAs in flag leaf senescence. Four small RNA libraries were generated from different stages of flag leaf senescence and sequenced by Illumina deep sequencing. A total of 29 known miRNA families and 494 novel miRNAs were identified in the senescing flag leaves. 21 known and 116 novel miRNAs exhibited differential expression pattern. Computational prediction and analysis of putative targets of detected miRNAs revealed that miRNAs regulate the flag leaf senescence mainly by regulating transcription factors and hormone metabolism genes. The present study gives a clue about the senescence-associated miRNAs which can be used as a tool for manipulating flag leaf senescence in rice and other crops.

Project description:Leaf senescence is an essential developmental process that involves altered regulation of thousands of genes and changes in many metabolic and signaling pathways resulting in massive physiological and structural changes in the leaf. The regulation of senescence is complex and although several senescence regulatory genes have been identified and characterized there is little information on how these individual regulators function globally in the control of the process. In this paper we use microarray analysis to obtain a high-resolution time course profile of gene expression during development of a single leaf over a three week period from just before full expansion to senescence. The multiple time points enable the use of highly informative clustering tools to reveal distinct time points at which signaling and metabolic pathways change during senescence. Analysis of motif enrichment in co-regulated gene clusters identifies clear groups of transcription factors active at different stages of leaf development and senescence.

Project description:We sequenced mRNA from Ginkgo biloba leaves grown at different developmental stages using the Illumina HiSeq4000 platform to generate the transcriptome dynamics that may serve as a gene expression profile blueprint for different response patterns during autumn leaf senescence and coloration. These results contribute to the elucidation of the molecular mechanisms involved in the leaf coloration and senescence in G. biloba as well as to the identification of candidate genes involved in this process.
