Project description:Coping of evergreen conifers of boreal forests with freezing temperatures on bright winter days puts the photosynthetic machinery in great risk of oxidative damage. To survive harsh winter conditions, conifers have evolved a unique but poorly characterised photoprotection mechanism, a sustained form of non-photochemical quenching (sustained NPQ). Here we focused on functional properties and underlying molecular mechanisms related to the development of sustained NPQ in Norway spruce (Picea abies). Data was collected during four consecutive years (2016-19) from trees growing in sun and shade habitats. When day temperatures dropped below -4°C, specific N-terminally triply phosphorylated LHCB1 isoform (3p-LHCII) and phosphorylated PSBS (p-PSBS) were detected in the thylakoid membrane. Development of sustained NPQ coincided with the highest level of 3p-LHCII and p-PSBS, occurring after prolonged combination of bright winter days and temperature close to -10°C. Artificial induction of both the sustained NPQ and recovery from naturally induced sustained NPQ provided information on differential dynamics and light-dependence of 3p-LHCII and p-PSBS accumulation and dephosphorylation as essential prerequisites of sustained NPQ. Data obtained collectively suggest three novel components related to sustained NPQ in spruce. (i) Freezing temperatures induce 3p-LHCII accumulation independently of light, which is suggested to initiate de-stacking of appressed thylakoid membranes due to increased electrostatic repulsion of adjacent membranes. (ii) p-PSBS accumulation is both light- and temperature-dependent and closely linked to the initiation of sustained NPQ, which (iii) in concert with PSII photoinhibition is likely to trigger sustained NPQ in spruce.

Project description:The sustainable production of perennial grasses in Northern Norway is at risk due to the ongoing climate change. The predicted increase in temperatures and variable weather patterns are further expected to create challenges for winter survival of timothy. Therefore, knowledge about the molecular mechanisms underlying freezing tolerance is crucial for developing robust cultivars. The current study is aimed at identifying genes involved in the freezing stress response of Timothy and studying gene expression differentiation due to field selection in contrasting environments. Four timothy cultivars, namely Engmo, Noreng, Grindstad and Snorri were field tested for three years at locations Tromsø and Vesterålen in Northern Norway. The surviving material from the field tests along with plants raised from the original seed lots were subjected to freezing tests. Following the tests, crown tissue was collected for RNA extraction. All samples from different treatment points were paired-end sequenced at 20 million reads/sample. LT50 values varied across cultivars and materials. Plant material from cold-acclimated (CA) samples was used as controls, while two pools for each cultivar were made of plant material from temperature points below the LT50, one with the higher temperatures termed Treatment 1 (T1) and one with the lower temperatures termed Treatment 2 (T2). Many genes coding for transcription factors and proteins which are known to play an important role in freezing tolerance like dehydrins, c-repeat binding factors, late embryogenesis abundant proteins are upregulated with decreasing temperatures. Moreover, genes associated with glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, TCA cycle, glutathione metabolism, proteasome, glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism pathways and genes encoding heat shock proteins, autophagy-related, plasma membrane-associated proteins, sugar and amino acid transporters had elevated expression in field survivors compared to plants raised from the original material. These DEGs might be crucial for winter survival of timothy in a changing climate. Furthermore, differences in freezing stress response between northern and southern adapted cultivars, and surviving material from two field trial locations are discussed briefly

Project description:Coordinated regulation of protection mechanisms against environmental abiotic stress and pathogen attack is essential for plant adaptation and survival. Initial abiotic stress can interfere with disease resistance signaling. Conversely, initial plant immune signaling may interrupt subsequent ABA signal transduction. However, the processes involved in cross talk between these signaling networks have not been determined. By screening a 9,600 compound chemical library, we identified a small molecule [5-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)Furan-2-yl]-Piperidin-1-ylMethanethione that rapidly down-regulates ABA-dependent gene expression and also inhibits ABA-induced stomatal closure. Transcriptome analyses show that DFPM also stimulates expression of plant defense-related genes. Plate grown 12-day-old seedlings were transferred into 6 well plates with 1:5000 (V/V) DMSO in water as a control, 30uM DFPM, and 10uM ABA in water as a treatment for 6 hours. DFPM was added 30 min prior to ABA treatment. RNA was extracted using Trizol (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and further purified using RNeasy Plant RNA purification kit (QIAgen, Valencia, CA, USA). Three biological replicates of ATH1 oligonucleotide arrays were hybridized with labeled samples from 1) wild-type Columbia (WT) untreated, 2) WT with 30uM DFPM treatment, 3) WT with 10uM ABA treatment, 4) WT with 30uM DFPM and 10uM ABA treatment. Each biological replicate was prepared by combining 7 independently-treated samples.

Project description:Abscisic acid (ABA) plays crucial regulatory roles in cold acclimation and deacclimation of grapevine, making it a potential tool to be utilized in vineyards for the acquisition of preferred phenotypes in winter and spring. To understand the function of ABA , we conducted two experiments during cold acclimation and deacclimation and evaluated the impact of exogenous abscisic acid (ABA) on the grapevine transcriptome. RNA-seq data were collected periodically hours or days after ABA treatment. Transcriptomic data were analyzed using principal component analysis (PCA) , hierarchical clustering, unsupervised weighed gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), contrast-based differentially expressed genes (DEGs) identification and pre-ranked gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). Our results suggest that ABA functions differently during cold acclimation and deacclimation by selectively regulating key pathways including auxin/indole acetic acid (IAA) metabolism, galactose metabolism and ribosome biogenesis. We also identified the activation of several apparent negative feedback systems that regulated ABA-induced transcriptomic changes, suggesting the existence of a balancing system in response to excessive ABA.

Project description:Abscisic acid (ABA) plays a key role in plant development and responses to abiotic stress. A wide number of regulatory mechanisms on ABA perception and signaling are known, including transcriptional regulation and post-translational regulations; however, less to know about the post-transcriptional regulations. In this work, we have found that SKIP, a splicing factor in spliceosome, positively regulates ABA signal transduction. Mutation of SKIP, skip-1, confers ABA insensitive phenotype in seed germination, root growth, and ABA-responsive gene expression. Transformation of SKIP genomic DNA to skip-1 is able to recover its defects. SKIP binds to the pre-mRNA of genes in ABA signaling, such as PYL8, to regulate their splicing. The alternative splicing of PYL7, PYL8, ABF2, and ABI5 in ABA pathway is disrupted by skip-1, reducing the mRNA levels of them. The abnormal splicing of PP2Cs activates their transcription by skip-1, suggesting there is a feedback regulation for PP2Cs caused by skip-1. The down-regulation of PYL ABA receptors, ABF2 and ABI5 ABA response transcription factors, and the up-regulation of PP2Cs through alternative splicing reduce the plant responses to ABA in skip-1. SKIP is required for ABA-mediated genome-wide alternative splicing. ABA treatment enhances the novel splicing events in WT genome-widely. The novel alternative splicing events are increased by skip-1 in the absence and present of ABA. Our results first reveal a principle on how a splicing factor affects the ABA signaling.

Project description:The crown is the critical region for survival of winter wheat exposed to low temperature stresses. When wheat is exposed to non-freezing low temperatures, they can increase their freezing tolerance (cold acclimation, ACC). Changes within the apoplast are thought to be crucial for acquisition of freezing tolerance. However, how individual tissues within the ccrown, namely the shoot apical meristem (SAM, responsible for new shoot growth) and vascular transition zone (VTZ, located at the base of the crown)enhance tolerance to freezing has not yet been characterized. In the present study, we conducted shotgun proteomic analysis of the apoplast fluid to investigate ACC-induced proteins in the SAM and VTZ.

Project description:Several nucleoporins in the nuclear pore complex (NPC) have been reported to be involved in abiotic stress responses in plants. However, the molecular mechanism of how NPC regulates abiotic stress responses, especially the expression of stress responsive genes remains poorly understood. From a forward genetics screen using an abiotic stress-responsive luciferase reporter (RD29A-LUC) in the sickle-1 (sic-1) mutant background, we identified a suppressor caused by a mutation in NUCLEOPORIN 85 (NUP85), which exhibited reduced expression of RD29A-LUC in response to ABA and salt stress. Consistently, the ABA and salinity induced expression of several stress responsive genes such as RD29A, COR15A and COR47 was significantly compromised in nup85 mutants and other nucleoporin mutants such as nup160 and hos1. Subsequently, Immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry analysis revealed that NUP85 is potentially associated with HOS1 and other nucleoporins within the nup107-160 complex, along with several mediator subunits. We further showed that there is a direct physical interaction between MED18 and NUP85. Similar to NUP85 mutations, MED18 mutation was also found to attenuate expression of stress responsive genes. Taken together, we not only revealed the involvement of NUP85 and other nucleoporins in regulating ABA and salt stress responses, but also uncovered a potential relation between NPC and mediator complex in modulating the gene expression in plants.

Project description:Jasmonates (JA) and abscisic acid (ABA) are phytohormones known to play important roles in plant response and adaptation to various abiotic stresses including salinity, drought, wounding, and cold. JAZ (JASMONATE ZIM-domain) proteins have been reported to play negative roles in JA signaling. However, direct evidence is still lacking that JAZ proteins regulate drought resistance. In this study, OsJAZ1 was investigated for its role in drought resistance in rice. Expression of OsJAZ1 was strongly responsive to JA treatment, and it was slightly responsive to ABA, salicylic acid, and abiotic stresses including drought, salinity, and cold. The OsJAZ1-overexpression rice plants were more sensitive to drought stress treatment than the wild-type rice Zhonghua 11 (ZH11) at both the seedling and reproductive stages, while the jaz1 T-DNA insertion mutant plants showed increased drought tolerance compared to the wild-type plants. The OsJAZ1-overexpression plants were hyposensitive to MeJA and ABA, whereas the jaz1 mutant plants were hypersensitive to MeJA and ABA. In addition, there were significant differences in shoot and root length between the OsJAZ1 transgenic and wild-type plants under the MeJA and ABA treatments. A subcellular localization assay indicated that OsJAZ1 was localized in both the nucleus and cytoplasm. Transcriptome profiling analysis by RNA-seq revealed that the expression levels of many genes in the ABA and JA signaling pathways exhibited significant differences between the OsJAZ1-overexpression plants and wild-type ZH11 under drought stress treatment. Quantitative real-time PCR confirmed the expression profiles of some of the differentially expressed genes, including OsNCED4, OsLEA3, RAB21, OsbHLH006, OsbHLH148, OsDREB1A, OsDREB1B, SNAC1, and OsCCD1. These results together suggest that OsJAZ1 plays a role in regulating the drought resistance of rice partially via the ABA and JA pathways.
