This study investigated dynamic changes of element and hormone contents during ZE development of <em>Pinus elliottii</em> and its hybrid <em>P. elliottii</em> × <em>P. caribaea</em>. Significant differences in embryo development speed among different clones were observed. Elemental analysis was conducted using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and identified 68 elements, including major, minor, and beneficial elements. In both species, the contents of potassium (K), calcium (Ca), iron (Fe), boron (B) and five beneficial elements decreased during early ZE development, while phosphorus (P) and copper (Cu) increased. Significantly higher levels of K, Ca and Fe at the initial stage, and sulfur (S) and nickel (Ni) decreased at later stages were detected in <em>P. elliottii</em> than in the hybrid. For the other elements, except for very few significant differences at certain stages, most differences between the two species did not reach a significant level. The contents of endogenous hormones were determined and different accumulation patterns were detected in most hormones between the two species, except abscisic acid (ABA) which simultaneously decreased with developments by stage 8. Significant differences were found in indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) contents at most stages between species, while higher levels of total cytokinin (CK) at each stage were detected in the hybrid in comparison with those in <em>P. elliottii</em>. As a result, lower IAA to CK ratios in the hybrid than in <em>P. elliottii</em>.

Known for its strong antioxidant properties, this dihydrochalcone has been extensively studied in animals but less so in plants. Recently, we identified phloretin as a phytotoxic allelochemical that inhibits growth in the model plant Arabidopsis by disrupting auxin metabolism and distribution in the roots. In this study, we found that phloretin significantly hinders the growth of Arabidopsis seedlings' aerial parts after a short-term treatment (10 days) and causes their decay after long-term exposure (28 days). These effects result from ultrastructural damage in the mesophyll cells of the leaves, including chloroplast displacement and swelling, lesions, and alterations in thylakoid and cell wall organization. Interestingly, phloretin-treated plants showed a decrease in malondialdehyde levels and antioxidant enzyme activities, while hydrogen peroxide and proline levels remained unchanged. This suggests that phloretin-induced chlorosis and seedling decay are not due to oxidative stress but rather to severe chloroplast structural damage, leading to inefficient photosynthesis, starch degradation, starvation, and activation of micro- and macroautophagic processes for self-preservation. Ultimately, these processes result in programmed cell death.

Given the potential of hydrogen sulfide (H<sub>2</sub>S) to improve plant resistance against Cd stress, we treated germinating carrot seeds with varying concentrations of sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS), aiming to alleviate the toxic impacts of Cd stress on carrot seed germination. The results revealed that carrot seeds treated with a concentration of 0.25 mM NaHS displayed better seed germination-associated characteristics compared to seeds treated with NaHS concentrations of 0.1 mM and 0.5 mM. Further investigation revealed a rise in the expression levels of <em>L-cysteine desulfhydrase</em> and <em>D-cysteine desulfhydrase</em>, along with enhanced activity of L-cysteine desulfhydrase and D-cysteine desulfhydrase among the NaHS treatment group, thereby leading to H<sub>2</sub>S accumulation.

This study examined the conformational changes and reduced NPR1–EDS1 interaction upon mutation using a molecular dynamics simulation. Initially, <sup>BTB</sup>C150Y<sub>NPR1</sub> and <sup>ANK</sup>H334Y<sub>NPR1</sub> were categorized as pathological mutations rather than others based on sequence conservation. A distant ortholog was used to map the common residues shared among the wild-type because the mutations were highly conserved. Overall, 179 of 373 residues were determining the secondary structures and fold versatility of conformations. In addition, the mutational hotspots Cys150, Asp152, Glu153, Cys155, His157, Cys160, His334, Arg339 and Lys370 were crucial for oligomer-to-monomer exchange. Subsequently, the atomistic simulations with free energy (MM/PB(GB)SA) calculations predicted structural displacements engaging in the N-termini <sub>α5</sub>133-178<sub>α7</sub> linker connecting the central ANK regions (<sub>α13</sub>260–290<sub>α14</sub> and <sub>α18</sub>320–390<sub>α22</sub>), where prominent long helices (α5<sub>16</sub>) and short helices (α3<sub>10</sub>) replaced with β-turns and loops disrupting hydrogen bonds and salt bridges in both mutants implicating functional regulation and activation. Furthermore, the mutation repositions the intact stability of multiple regions (<sub>L13</sub>C149-N356<sub>α20</sub><sup>BTB/ANK</sup>-<sub>α17</sub>W301-E357<sub>α21</sub><sup>N−ter/coiled-coil</sup>) compromising a dynamic interaction of NPR1–EDS1. By unveiling the transitions between the distinct functions of mutational perception, this study paves the way for future investigation to orchestrate additive host-adapted transcriptional reprogramming that controls defense-related regulatory mechanisms of NPR1s in plants.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16808,"journal":{"name":"Journal of plant physiology","volume":"303 ","pages":"Article 154345"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142357690","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
