Project description:Multicellular organisms control environmental interactions through specialized barriers in specific cell types. A conserved barrier in plant roots is the endodermal Casparian strip (CS), a ring-like structure made of polymerized lignin that seals the endodermal apoplastic space. Most angiosperms have another root cell type, the exodermis, that is reported to form a barrier. Our understanding of exodermal developmental and molecular regulation and function is limited as this cell type is absent from Arabidopsis thaliana. We demonstrate that in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), the exodermis does not form a CS. Instead, it forms a polar lignin cap (PLC) with equivalent barrier function to the endodermal CS but distinct genetic control. Repression of the exodermal PLC in inner cortical layers is conferred by the SlSCZ and SlEXO1 transcription factors, and these two factors genetically interact to control its polar deposition. Several target genes that act downstream of SlSCZ and SlEXO1 in the exodermis are identified. Although the exodermis and endodermis produce barriers that restrict mineral ion uptake, the exodermal PLC is unable to fully compensate for the lack of a CS. The presence of distinct lignin structures acting as apoplastic barriers has exciting implications for a root's response to abiotic and biotic stimuli.

Project description:Potential components of the barrier to radial oxygen loss (ROL) are suberin and/or lignin, which accumulate at the cell wall in the cells of peripheral cell layers of the root. Chemical composition of the apoplastic barrier in rice roots was characterized and it was suggested that ROL can be restricted by the formation of a suberized exodermis and/or lignified sclerenchyma in the outer part of the root. To characterize reorganization of primary carbon metabolism in rice roots during the ROL barrier formation, we obtained the profiles of polar metabolites and the profiles of fatty acids of different zones of rice roots from plants growing in stagnant (anaerobic) and in well aerated medium. Biochemical data are combined with the results of microarray analysis.

Project description:Internal aeration is crucial for root growth in waterlogged soil. A barrier to radial oxygen loss (ROL) can enhance long- distance oxygen transport via the aerenchyma to the root tip; a higher oxygen concentration at the apex enables root growth into anoxic soil. The ROL barrier is formed within the outer part of roots (OPR). Suberin and/or lignin depos- ited in cell walls are thought to contribute to the barrier, but it is unclear which compound is the main constituent. This study describes gene expression profiles during ROL barrier formation in rice roots to determine the relative responses of suberin and/or lignin biosyntheses for the barrier. OPR tissues were isolated by laser microdissection and their transcripts were analysed by microarray. A total of 128 genes were significantly up- or downregulated in the OPR during the barrier formation. Genes associated with suberin biosynthesis were strongly upregulated, whereas genes associated with lignin biosynthesis were not. By an ab initio analysis of the promoters of the upregulated genes, the putative cis-elements that could be associated with transcription factors, WRKY, AP2/ERF, NAC, bZIP, MYB, CBT/DREB, and MADS, were elucidated. They were particularly associated with the expression of transcrip- tion factor genes containing WRKY, AP2, and MYB domains. A semiquantitative reverse-transcription PCR analysis of genes associated with suberin biosynthesis (WRKY, CYP, and GPAT) confirmed that they were highly expressed during ROL barrier formation. Overall, these results suggest that suberin is a major constituent of the ROL barrier in roots of rice. 23-d-old plants were either continued in aerated solution or transplanted into N2-flushed or stagnant deoxygenated solution for 9 h. After treating the roots of plants in aerated, stagnant, or N2-flushed conditions for 9h, the basal parts (12.5 -22.5mm below the root - shoot junction) of the adventitious roots were collected. Cells in OPR (including exodermis and sclerenchyma) were isolated using laser microdissection. RNA extracted from the isolated OPR was analysed with a 44k rice oligo-DNA microarray. Total RNAs were labeled with a Quick Amp Labeling Kit (Agilent Technologies) according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions. Aliquots of Cy5-labeled and Cy3-labeled cRNA (10 ng each) were used for hybridization in a rice 44K oligo-DNA microarray.

Biochemical data are combined with the results of microarray analysis. Nine days after germination, the seedlings were transferred to well aerated nutrient solution or stagnant deoxygenated nutrient solution. Stagnant solution contained 0.1% (w/v) dissolved agar and was deoxygenated (dissolved oxygen, <0.5 mg lM-bM-^@M-^S1) prior to use by flushing with N2 gas. After 14 d (23 d old), adventitious roots, 100-150 mm long, were harvested from rice plants grown either in aerated or stagnant conditions and RNA was extracted from 10 mm segments from the regions 0-10 mm, 10-20 mm and 20-30 mm from the root apex have been cut with sterile razor blade and collected and processed separately. Total RNAs were labeled with a Quick Amp Labeling Kit (Agilent Technologies) according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions. Aliquots of Cy5-labeled and Cy3-labeled cRNA (825 ng each) were used for hybridization in a rice 44K oligo-DNA microarray.

Project description:The Casparian strip constitutes a physical diffusion barrier formed by the polar deposition of lignin in the root endodermis. The polar deposition of lignin is thought to be mediated by the scaffolding activity of membrane bound Casparian Strip domain proteins (CASPs) and the dirigent domain-containing protein Enhanced Suberin1 (ESB1). Here, we show that the endodermis-specific receptor-like kinase (ERK1), is part of this machinery, playing an essential role in the localization of CASP proteins and in the deposition of lignin, which ultimately are required for the formation of afunctional Casparian strip. ERK1 is localized to the cytoplasm and nucleus of the endodermis, and is part of a signalling pathway that implicates the circadian clock regulator Time for Coffee (TIC). In addition, we found that loss of ERK1 and TIC disrupts the Casparian strip organisation and alters composition of the root microbiome.

Project description:Lignin is a biopolymer found in plant cell walls that accounts for 30% of the organic carbon in the biosphere. White-rot fungi (WRF) are considered the most efficient organisms at degrading lignin in Nature. While lignin depolymerization by WRF has been exhaustively studied, the possibility that WRF are able to utilize lignin as a carbon source is still a matter of controversy. Here we employ 13C-labeling and systems biology approaches to demonstrate that two WRF, Trametes versicolor and Gelatoporia subvermispora, funnel lignin-derived aromatic compounds into central carbon metabolism via intracellular catabolic pathways. These results provide insights into global carbon cycling in soil ecosystems, and furthermore establishes a foundation for employing WRF in simultaneous lignin depolymerization and bioconversion to bioproducts – a key step towards enabling a sustainable bioeconomy.
