Project description:Maize and rice are the two most economically important grass crops and utilize distinct forms of photosynthesis to fix carbon: C4 and C3 respectively. Relative to C3 photosynthesis, C4 photosynthesis reduces photorespiration and affords higher water and nitrogen use efficiencies under hot arid conditions. To define key innovations in C4 photosynthesis, we profiled metabolites and gene expression along a developing leaf gradient. A novel statistical method was implemented to compare transcriptomes from these two species along a unified leaf developmental gradient and define candidate cis-regulatory elements and transcription factors driving photosynthetic gene expression. We also present comparative primary and secondary metabolic profiles along the gradients that provide new insight into nitrogen and carbon metabolism in C3 and C4 grasses. These resources, including community viewers to access and mine these datasets, will enable the elucidation and engineering of C4 photosynthetic networks to improve the photosynthetic capacity of C3 and C4 grasses.

Project description:The C4 photosynthetic pathway provided a major advantage to plants growing in hot, dry environments, including the ancestors of our most productive crops. Two traits were essential for the evolution of this pathway: increased vein density and the functionalization of bundle sheath cells for photosynthesis. Although GRAS transcriptional regulators, including SHORT ROOT (SHR), have been implicated in mediating leaf patterning in both C3 and C4 species1-4, little is known about what controls the specialized features of the cells that mediate C4 metabolism and physiology. We show in the model monocot, Setaria viridis, that SHR regulates components of multiple cell identities, including chloroplast biogenesis and photosynthetic gene expression in bundle sheath cells, a central feature of C4 plants. Furthermore, we found that it also contributes to the two-cell compartmentalization of the characteristic four-carbon shuttle pathway. Disruption of SHR function clearly reduced photosynthetic capacity and seed yield in mutant plants under heat stress. Together, these results show how cell identities are remodeled by SHR to host the suite of traits characteristic of C4 regulation, which are a main engineering target in non-C4 crops to improve climate resilience.

[Maize] Nine day old third leaves of maize were cut into fifteen 1 cm segments; samples were pooled from an average of seven plants per biological replicate and six biological replicates in total were collected on different dates. [Rice] 14 day old third leaves of rice were cut into eleven 2 cm segments, samples were pooled from an average of 15 plants per biological replicate and four replicates in total were collected.

Project description:PROTON GRADIENT REGULATION 5 (PGR5) plays a critical role in generating proton motive force across thylakoid membranes and supporting photoprotection under fluctuating light in C3 plants. It is proposed that this function is achieved by regulating cyclic electron flow around Photosystem I. During the evolutionary transition from C3 to C4 photosynthesis, PGR5 abundance in leaves has increased, coinciding with an enhancement in cyclic electron flow rate. To investigate the role of PGR5 in C4 photosynthesis and photoprotection, we generated Setaria viridis (a model C4 monocot) lines with null PGR5 alleles. We demonstrate that loss of PGR5 severely impairs the establishment of proton motive force, photosynthetic control, and energy-dependent non-photochemical quenching at high irradiances, leading to a loss of Photosystem I activity under light stress. Furthermore, plants lacking PGR5 exhibit drastically reduced growth and photosynthesis when grown under fluctuating daylight; however, they are less severely affected than C3 pgr5 mutants. This relative tolerance arises from the ability of S. viridis lacking PGR5 to maintain significant levels of photosynthetic control, in contrast to C3 mutants. Additionally, in the absence of PGR5 and qE, a slower-relaxing, zeaxanthin-dependent form of non-photochemical quenching supports survival under fluctuating light, albeit at the cost of reduced photochemical efficiency and assimilation. Our findings highlight the essential role of PGR5 in enabling efficient C4 photosynthesis under fluctuating light by regulating photosynthetic control and energy-dependent non-photochemical quenching. This study also uncovers the interplay between multiple photoprotective mechanisms safeguarding C4 photosynthesis under light stress.

Project description:Photosynthesis supports life on Earth but the regulatory architecture associated with photosynthesis gene expression is poorly understood. Most crops use either C3 or C4 photosynthesis with the latter allowing significantly higher efficiencies as well as improved water and nitrogen use. Here we use DNAse-SEQ to define >1 million transcription factor binding sites in leaves of grasses that either operate C3 or C4 photosynthesis and that are consistent with significant differences in the modes of gene regulation between the kingdoms of life. Leaf samples were collected from seedlings to allow for comparison of regulatory interactions between species from the same (Zea mays and Sorghum bicolor) and different (Setaria italica) C4 lineages, as well as a C3 grass (Brachypodium distachyon) in order to investigate evolution of C4 photosynthetic gene expression. Additionally bundle sheath tissues were mechanically isolated from C4 species and analysed by DNAse-SEQ to identify DNA regulatory elements controlling cell-specific gene expression patterns.

Project description:C4 photosynthesis overpasses C3 by a higher photosynthetic rate, along with a higher water and nitrogen use efficiency. The establishment of C4 photosynthesis requires modification of ancestral C3 in both anatomical and metabolic aspects, both are involved in many functional pathways which have not been fully demonstrated. This study aims to illustrate overall functional changes along the evolution of C4 photosynthesis, with a purpose to gain an overall view of what are required for C4 photosynthesis. To achieve this, this study assembled chromosome scale of genome sequencing of five Flaveria species, representing gradual evolutionary stages of C4 photosynthesis from C3 to C3-C4 and to C4. Here, result showed that the genome size gradually increases from C3 to intermediate to C4 species, which ranges from 0.5 G to 1.87 G. The enlarged genomes are mainly from transposable elements, with the number of protein coding gene are comparable along evolution. The copy of C4 version CA1 and PEPC1, as well as PEPC-k gained extra one, two and five copies in C4 species F. trinervia as a result of tandem duplication, which plays a positive role for the emergency of C4 photosynthesis. Besides, the evolutionary pattern of C4 gene on transcript abundance are consistent with that on protein abundance, suggesting transcriptional regulation is a key factor for establishing C4 photosynthesis.

Project description:C4 photosynthesis was evolved from ancestral C3 photosynthesis by recruited pre-existed genes to perform new functions. Enzymes and transporters required for C4 metabolic pathway has been well documented, however, transcriptional factors (TFs) that regulate those C4 metabolic genes is poorly understood, in particular, how the TF regulatory network of C4 metabolic genes was re-wired, and the involved metabolic functions of those TFs along the evolution of C4 photosynthesis remained unknown. Here, by using RNA-Seq data from growth condition that reported to have effect on C4 photosynthesis, we constructed the TF regulatory network for four evolutionarily closely related species in the genus Flaveria, which represent different stages of the evolution of C4 photosynthesis, namely, C3, type I C3-C4, type II C3-C4 and C4. Our results show that four TFs are conserved along the evolution whose function either relate to stress response or light response. TFs regulating C4 core genes in C3 species involved in functions belong to RNA regulation and nitrogen metabolism, and that in both intermediate species and C4 species involved in photosynthesis and light responsiveness. Moreover, the TF-network of C4 core metabolic genes has the highest network density in type I C3-C4 species and C4 species when consider the fragment of TF-regulatory network that up-regulated under low CO2, suggesting that TFs regulating C4 genes were recruited to photosynthesis at type I C3-C4 both in involved functions and network density. Our results provide a valuable resource for studying molecular regulatory mechanisms underlying C4 metabolic process.
