Abstract

Background and aims: To better understand C4 evolution in monocots, we characterized C3-C4 intermediate phenotypes in the grass genus Homolepis (subtribe Arthropogoninae).

Methods: Carbon isotope ratio (δ13C), leaf gas exchange, mesophyll (M) to bundle sheath (BS) tissue characteristics, organelle size and numbers in M and BS tissue, and tissue distribution of the P-subunit of glycine decarboxylase (GLDP) were determined for five Homolepis species and the C4 grass Mesosetum loliiforme from a phylogenetic sister clade. We generated a transcriptome-based phylogeny for Homolepis and Mesosetum species to interpret physiological and anatomical patterns in an evolutionary context, and to test for hybridization.

Key results: Homolepis contains two C3 (H. glutinosa, H. villaricensis), one weaker form of C2 termed sub-C2 (H. isocalycia), and two C2 species (H. longispicula, H. aturensis). Homolepis longispicula and H. aturensis express over 85% of leaf GDC in centripetal mitochondria within the BS, and have increased fractions of leaf chloroplasts, mitochondria and peroxisomes within the BS relative to H. glutinosa. Analysis of leaf gas exchange, cell ultrastructural, and transcript expression show M. loliiforme is a C4 plant of the NADP-malic enzyme subtype. Homolepis is comprised of two sister clades, one containing H. glutinosa and H. villaricensis and the second H. longispicula and H. aturensis. Homolepis isocalycia is of hybrid origin, with parents being H. aturensis and a common ancestor of the C3  Homolepis clade and H. longispicula.

Conclusions: Photosynthetic activation of BS tissue in the sub-C2 and C2 species of Homolepis is similar to patterns observed in C3-C4 intermediate eudicots, indicating common evolutionary pathways from C3 to C4 photosynthesis in these disparate clades. Hybridization can diversify the C3-C4 intermediate character state and should be considered in reconstructing putative ancestral states using phylogenetic analyses.

期刊介绍: Annals of Botany is an international plant science journal publishing novel and rigorous research in all areas of plant science. It is published monthly in both electronic and printed forms with at least two extra issues each year that focus on a particular theme in plant biology. The Journal is managed by the Annals of Botany Company, a not-for-profit educational charity established to promote plant science worldwide. The Journal publishes original research papers, invited and submitted review articles, ''Research in Context'' expanding on original work, ''Botanical Briefings'' as short overviews of important topics, and ''Viewpoints'' giving opinions. All papers in each issue are summarized briefly in Content Snapshots , there are topical news items in the Plant Cuttings section and Book Reviews . A rigorous review process ensures that readers are exposed to genuine and novel advances across a wide spectrum of botanical knowledge. All papers aim to advance knowledge and make a difference to our understanding of plant science.
