Project description:Flowering in plants is a very dynamic and synchronized process where various cues including age, day-length, temperature and endogenous hormones fine-tune the timing of flowering for reproductive success. Arabidopsis thaliana is a facultative long day plant where long-day (LD) photoperiod promotes flowering. Arabidopsis still flowers under short-day (SD) conditions, albeit much later than LD conditions. Although, factors regulating the photoperiodic LD pathway have been extensively investigated, the SD pathway is much less understood. Here we identified a critical transcription factor called bHLH93 (basic Helix-Loop-Helix 93) that is essential to induce flowering specifically under SD conditions in Arabidopsis. bhlh93 mutants do not flower from primary meristem under SD conditions, but flowers similar to wild type under LD conditions. The late flowering phenotype is rescued by exogenous application of GA, suggesting that bHLH93 acts upstream of GA pathway to promote flowering. Double mutant studies showed that bhlh93 is epistatic to phyB and soc1 genes under SD conditions. bHLH93 is expressed at the meristematic regions and its expression peaks at 8 hours after dawn under SD conditions. As expected, the bHLH93 is localized in the nucleus. Taken together, these data suggest that bHLH93 is a key transcription factor necessary for Arabidopsis thaliana to evolve as a facultative plant.

Project description:The timing of flowering is a critical agronomic trait governed by a number of different internal and external events, such as temperature, light and photoperiod. Despite a firm understanding of flowering time from a genetic standpoint, there exists a limited understanding of how post-translational modifications may influence flowering, and what molecular PTM machinery is responsible for catalyzing these events. Here, we identify and characterize a novel B4 Raf-like MAPKKK protein kinase called RAF24, which exhibits an early flowering phenotype. Analysis of closely-related B4 Raf-like MAPKKK protein kinases RAF18 and RAF20, indicate that RAF24 is the only B4 RAF to possess an early flowering phenotype. Through quantitative proteomics, we then found that RAF24 impacts the phosphorylation status of numerous flowering related proteins related to the autonomous flowering pathway, with changes in the phosphorylation status of HISTONE MONO-UBIQUITINATION 2 (HUB2) representing the largest fold-change. Subsequent analysis of the HUB2 protein interactome by quantitative affinity purification mass spectrometry (AP-MS) revealed a relationship between HUB2 phosphorylation at S314 phosphorylation status and HUB2 function that manifest as changes in activity and protein-protein interactions. Use of phospho-memetic and -ablative mutants validate the importance of S314, directly linking this HUB2 phosphorylation event to the proper control of flowering time. Collectively, our findings implicate RAF24 as a higher-order regulator of flowering, while further implicating HUB2 as a centerpiece of flowering time regulation in plants.

Project description:Using a yeast to hybrid screen, it was found that PHO2, a key regulator of phosphate homeostasis, could interact with GIGANTEA, a key regulator of flowering time. In addition, mutant analysis revealed that both the pho2 and gi mutants shared similar phenotypes, both at the phosphate and flowering time levels. We used microarrays to analyse the effects of each mutation (pho2 or gi) on global gene expression, and assessed the proportion of genes similalry regulated in both mutants, in both shoots and roots. Wild-type (Nipponbare), pho2 and gi knock-out rice plants were grown to 21-days before harvesting root and shoot separately.

Stratified Col-0 and bhlh93-1 mutants seeds in cold for 4 days. Transferred to Short Day (8h light and 16h dark) chamber and harvested samples after 10days. Tissue was harvested 0 and 4 hour after light was turned on.

Project description:Regulation of flowering time by autophagy in rice
| PRJNA732680 | ENA
Project description:The precise regulation of flowering time, known as heading date in rice (Oryza sativa L.), is critical for regional adaptation, agricultural productivity, and crop rotation practices. In rice, the florigen activation complex (FAC) and its downstream effectors are well-characterized mediators of the floral transition in the shoot apical meristem (SAM). Here, we characterized OsMYB110 as a SAM-localized transcription factor that promotes flowering, exhibiting functional similarity to the established flowering regulator Nhd1 (N-mediated heading date-1). Through integrated molecular and genetic analyses, we demonstrate that: (1) Nhd1 directly binds to the OsMYB110 promoter to activate its expression, while OsMYB110 in turn binds to and activates the OsMADS15 promoter to control flowering progression, and (2) genetic epistasis places OsMYB110 downstream of Nhd1 but upstream of OsMADS15 in the flowering regulation hierarchy. Furthermore, while elevated phosphate accelerates flowering, this response is abolished in myb110 and mads15 mutants but maintained in nhd1 mutants. These results define a previously unrecognized Nhd1–OsMYB110–OsMADS15 regulatory module that integrates developmental and nutrient signaling pathways to control rice flowering time.

Project description:Polyploidy is a widespread phenomenon in flowering plant species. Polyploid plants frequently exhibit considerable transcriptomic alterations after whole-genome duplication (WGD). It is known that the transcriptomic response to tetraploidization is ecotype-dependent in Arabidopsis. Nevertheless, the biological significance and the underlying mechanism are unknown. Here, we showed that 4x Col-0 and 4x Ler presented different flowering times, with a delayed flowering time in 4x Col-0 but not in 4x Ler. We found that the expression of FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC), the major repressor of flowering, was significantly increased in 4x Col-0 but subtle change in 4x Ler. Moreover, the level of a repressive epigenetic mark, trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 27 (H3K27me3), was significantly decreased in 4x Col-0 but not in 4x Ler, potentially leading to different transcription levels of FLC and flowering time in 4x Col-0 and 4x Ler. Apart from the FLC locus, hundreds of genes showed differentially H3K27me3 alterations in 4x Col-0 and 4x Ler. Comparably, LIKE HETEROCHROMATIN PROTEIN 1 (LHP1) and transcription factors required for H3K27me3 deposition presented differential transcriptional changes between 4x Col and Ler, potentially account for differential H3K27me3 alterations in 4x Col-0 and Ler. Last, we found that the natural 4x Arabidopsis ecotype Wa-1 presented early flowering time, associated with low expression and high H3K27me3 of FLC. Taken together, our results showed a role of H3K27me3 alterations in response to genome duplication in Arabidopsis autopolyploids and that flowering time variation potentially functions in autopolyploid speciation.
