Numerous investigations have demonstrated that cellular PA homeostasis plays a key role in various developmental and physiological processes.

In this review, the advances in PA transport and distribution and their roles in plants were summarized and discussed. In addition, the interplay between PAs and phytohormones, NO, and H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> were detailed during plant growth, senescence, fruit repining, as well as response to biotic and abiotic stresses. Moreover, it was elucidated how environmental signals such as light, temperature, and humidity modulate PA accumulation during plant development. Notably, PA has been shown to exert a potential role in shaping the domestication of rice.

However, the mechanism underlying barrier formation under salt stress is unclear. Here, we characterized the glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) family gene TaGPAT6, encoding a protein involved in cutin and suberin biosynthesis for apoplastic barrier formation in wheat (Triticum aestivum). TaGPAT6 has both acyltransferase and phosphatase activities, which are responsible for the synthesis of sn-2-monoacylglycerol (sn-2 MAG), the precursor of cutin and suberin. Overexpressing TaGPAT6 promoted the deposition of cutin and suberin in the seed coat and the outside layers of root tip cells and enhanced salt tolerance by reducing sodium ion accumulation within cells. By contrast, TaGPAT6 knockout mutants showed increased sensitivity to salt stress due to reduced cutin and suberin deposition and enhanced sodium ion accumulation. Yeast-one-hybrid and electrophoretic mobility shift assays identified TaABI5 as the upstream regulator of TaGPAT6. TaABI5 knockout mutants showed suppressed expression of TaGPAT6 and decreased barrier formation in the seed coat. These results indicate that TaGPAT6 is involved in cutin and suberin biosynthesis and the resulting formation of an apoplastic barrier that enhances salt tolerance in wheat.</p>","PeriodicalId":195,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Integrative Plant Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142724478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, current research has mainly focused on metabolite biosynthesis and regulation, and little is known about their transport. Tanshinone, a class diterpenoid with medicinal properties, is biosynthesized in the periderm of Salvia miltiorrhiza roots. Here, we discovered that tanshinone can be transported out of peridermal cells and secreted into the soil environment and that the ABC transporter SmABCG1 is involved in the efflux of tanshinone ⅡA and tanshinone Ⅰ. The SmABCG1 gene is adjacent to the diterpene biosynthesis gene cluster in the S. miltiorrhiza genome. The temporal-spatial expression pattern of SmABCG1 is consistent with tanshinone accumulation profiles. SmABCG1 is located on the plasma membrane and preferentially accumulates in the peridermal cells of S. miltiorrhiza roots. Heterologous expression in Xenopus laevis oocytes demonstrated that SmABCG1 can export tanshinone ⅡA and tanshinone Ⅰ. CRISPR/Cas9-mediated mutagenesis of SmABCG1 in S. miltiorrhiza hairy roots resulted in a significant decrease in tanshinone contents in both hairy roots and the culture medium, whereas overexpression of this gene resulted in increased tanshinone contents. CYP76AH3 transcript levels increased in hairy roots overexpressing SmABCG1 and decreased in knockout lines, suggesting that SmABCG1 may affect the expression of CYP76AH3, indirectly regulating tanshinone biosynthesis. Finally, tanshinone ⅡA showed cytotoxicity to Arabidopsis roots.

However, the mechanism underlying the manipulation of male sterility in cotton by long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and brassinosteroids (BRs) remains elusive. Here, using an integrative approach combining lncRNA transcriptomic profiles with virus-induced gene silencing experiments, we identify a flower bud-specific lncRNA in the maintainer line 2074B, lncRNA67, negatively modulating with male sterility in upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum). lncRNA67 positively regulates cytochrome P274B (GhCYP724B), which acted as an eTM (endogenous target mimic) for miR3367. The suppression of GhCYP724B induced symptoms of BR deficiency and male semi-sterility in upland cotton as well as in tobacco, which resulted from a reduction in the endogenous BR contents. GhCYP724B regulates BRs synthesis by interacting with GhDIM and GhCYP90B, two BRs biosynthesis proteins. Additionally, GhCYP724B suppressed a unique chimeric open reading frame (Aorf27) in 2074A mitochondrial genome. Ectopic expression of Aorf27 in yeast inhibited cellular growth, and over expression of Aorf27 in tobacco showed male sterility. Overall, the results proved that the miR3367-lncRNA67-GhCYP724B module positively regulates male sterility by modulating BRs biosynthesis.
