Abstract
Bromophenols (BPs) have both natural and artificial sources in the environment and are frequently detected in plants. Herein, the ubiquitous 2,4,6-TriBP was hydroponically exposed to rice seedlings at two concentrations (0.2 and 2.0 mg/L) to characterize the dose-dependent abiotic stress responses of rice plants to BPs. The 2,4,6-TriBP induced oxidative damage to rice roots and subsequently inhibited plant transpiration and growth at the end of exposure in both concentrations. Moreover, the gene expression of OsUGT72B1 and the activity of glycosyltransferases of exposed rice roots were 2.36-to-4.41-fold and 1.23-to-1.72-fold higher than that of the blank controls after 24 h, following the formation of glycoconjugates in response to 2,4,6-TriBP exposure. It was notable that the glycosylation rates also showed a dose-effect relationship in rice roots. One and six glycoconjugates of 2,4,6-TriBP were detected in 0.2 and 2.0 mg/L exposure groups, respectively. Considering the detected species of glycoconjugates for four other types of BPs, the numbers of bromine atoms were found to dramatically affect their glycosylation process in rice plants. These results improve our fundamental understanding of the impact of congener structures and exposure concentrations of organic contaminants on the glycosylation process in response to phytotoxicity.
