Abstract

Salt stress significantly inhibits seed germination in tobacco, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying this process remain largely unexplored. In this study, we demonstrated that NtOGG1, encoding an 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase, functions as a positive regulator of salt tolerance during seed germination. Under 150 mM NaCl stress, the overexpressing NtOGG1 line (NtOGG1-OE) exhibited higher germination and seedling percentage compared to wildtype (WT), whereas CRISPR–Cas9 knockout mutant showed reductions in both parameters. RNA-Seq analysis revealed that differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the NtOGG1-OE line, including ethylene-responsive transcription factors (ERFs), respiratory burst oxidase homologs (RBOHs), and catalase (CAT) genes, are implicated in the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway. Further qRT-PCR and physiological assays confirmed that the enhanced ethylene responses and reduced accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) significantly promote seed germination in the NtOGG1-OE line under salt stress. These findings establish NtOGG1 as a key regulator influencing seed germination under salt stress, providing a promising molecular target for breeding salt-tolerant tobacco cultivars.

盐胁迫下NtOGG1通过乙烯和活性氧途径调控烟草种子萌发
盐胁迫显著抑制烟草种子萌发,但这一过程背后的分子机制仍未被充分探索。在这项研究中,我们证明了编码8-氧鸟嘌呤DNA糖基化酶的NtOGG1在种子萌发过程中作为耐盐性的正调节因子。在150 mM NaCl胁迫下,与野生型(WT)相比,过表达的NtOGG1株系(NtOGG1- oe)的发芽率和成苗率均较高,而CRISPR-Cas9敲除突变体在这两个参数上均有所降低。RNA-Seq分析显示,NtOGG1-OE系的差异表达基因(DEGs),包括乙烯应答转录因子(ERFs)、呼吸爆发氧化酶同源物(RBOHs)和过氧化氢酶(CAT)基因,与丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(MAPK)信号通路有关。进一步的qRT-PCR和生理实验证实,盐胁迫下乙烯响应的增强和活性氧(ROS)积累的减少显著促进了NtOGG1-OE种子的萌发。这些发现表明NtOGG1是盐胁迫下影响烟草种子萌发的关键调控因子,为耐盐烟草品种的选育提供了一个有希望的分子靶点。
