Project description:Ambient temperature dependent flowering time is an important feature that is required for plants to reproduce in various environmental conditions. The rising global temperature poses a significant challenge to the growth and reproduction of plants. In Arabidopsis thaliana, FLM-β, a major splicing isoform of the flowering repressor gene FLOWERING LOCUS M, is down-regulated in response to increasing temperature and represents a critical mechanism for plants to respond to temperature changes. However, it is unknown how the transcript level of FLM-β is down-regulated. Here we identify an RRM domain-containing protein, UBA2C, as a previously uncharacterized flowering repressor by forward genetic screening. We demonstrate that UBA2C directly binds to FLM chromatin and facilitates FLM transcription predominantly by inhibiting the histone H3K27 trimethylation, a histone mark related to transcriptional repression. At FLM chromatin, the histone H3K27 trimethylation is enhanced in response to increasing temperatures. Depletion of UBA2C weakens the response of FLM transcription and H3K27 trimethylation to temperature changes. UBA2C forms multiple puncta in the nucleus and the number of puncta increases with increasing temperatures. UBA2C contains a prion-like domain (PrLD) that is responsible for forming puncta in the nucleus in vivo. These results not only identify a previously unknown flowering-time regulator but also reveal the mechanism by which the regulator controls flowering time in response to temperature changes.

Project description:How plants control the transition to flowering in response to ambient temperature is only beginning to be understood. In Arabidopsis thaliana, the MADS-box transcription factor genes FLOWERING LOCUS M (FLM) and SHORT VEGETATIVE PHASE (SVP) have key roles in this process. FLM is subject to temperature-dependent alternative splicing, producing two splice variants, FLM-β and FLM-δ, which compete for interaction with the floral repressor SVP. The SVP/FLM-β complex is predominately formed at low temperatures and prevents precocious flowering. In contrast, the competing SVP FLM-δ complex is impaired in DNA binding and acts as a dominant negative activator of flowering at higher temperatures. Our results demonstrate the importance of temperature-dependent alternative splicing in modulating the timing of the floral transition in response to environmental change.

Project description:Plants regulate their time to flowering by gathering information from the environment. Photoperiod and temperature are among the most important environmental variables. Suboptimal, but not near-freezing, temperatures regulate flowering through the thermosensory pathway, which overlaps with the autonomous pathway. Here we show that ambient temperature regulates flowering by two genetically distinguishable pathways, one that requires TFL1 and another that requires ELF3. The delay in flowering time observed at lower temperatures was partially suppressed in single elf3 and tfl1 mutants, whereas double elf3 tfl1 mutants were insensitive to temperature. tfl1 mutations abolished the temperature response in cryptochrome mutants that are deficient in photoperiod perception, but not in phyB mutants that have a constitutive photoperiodic response. Contrary to tfl1, elf3 mutations were able to suppress the temperature response in phyB mutants, but not in cryptochrome mutants. The gene expression profile revealed that the tfl1 and elf3 effects are due to the activation of different sets of genes and identified CCA1 and SOC1/AGL20 as being important cross talk points. Finally, genome-wide gene expression analysis strongly suggests a general and complementary role for ELF3 and TFL1 in temperature signalling.

Project description:Plants integrate seasonal cues such as temperature and day length to optimally adjust their flowering time to the environment. Compared to the control of flowering before and after winter by the vernalization and day length pathways, mechanisms that delay or promote flowering during a transient cool or warm period, especially during spring, are less well known. Due to global warming, understanding this ambient temperature pathway has become increasingly important. FLOWERING LOCUS M (FLM) is one critical flowering regulator of this pathway in Arabidopsis thaliana. We identified the Arabidopsis accession Kil-0 as an early flowering strain when compared to the common reference accession Col-0. Genetic mapping of this trait identified a causative region of around 31 kb at the bottom of chromosome one. Within this region, only FLOWERING LOCUS M (FLM) was expressed at a significantly lower level in Kil-0 when comparing RNA-seq (RNA sequencing) data from 10-day old Kil-0 and Col-0 plants grown at 21C. Furthermore, FLM was also the gene with the greatest reduction in gene expression between Kil-0 and Col-0 when we specifically analyzed 267 genes with a role in flowering time regulation what strongly suggested that FLM is the major locus that results in accelerated flowering in Kil-0.
