The exact mechanism that governs the routing of cysteine toward glutathione or methionine during stresses remains unclear. Our study reveals that under oxidative stress, methionine and glutathione compete for cysteine and that the increased oxidized glutathione (GSSG) levels under stress hinder methionine biosynthesis. Moreover, we find that inhibition occurs as GSSG binds to and accelerates the degradation of cystathionine γ-synthase, a key enzyme in the methionine synthesis pathway. Consequently, this leads to a reduction in the flux toward methionine-derived metabolites and redirects cysteine utilization toward glutathione, thereby enhancing plant protection. Our study suggests a novel regulatory feedback loop involving glutathione, methionine, and cysteine, shedding light on the plant stress response and the adaptive rerouting of cysteine. These findings offer new insights into the intricate balance of growth and protection in plants and its impact on their nutritional value due to low methionine levels under stress.</p>","PeriodicalId":195,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Integrative Plant Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":9.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142491704","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}

In the present study, we identified that the plant AT-rich sequence and zinc-binding (TaPLATZ2) transcription factor are involved in wheat response to saline-alkali stress by directly suppressing the expression of TaHA2/TaSOS3. The knockdown of TaPLATZ2 enhances salt and alkali stress tolerance, while overexpression of TaPLATZ2 leads to salt and alkali stress sensitivity in wheat. In addition, TaWRKY55 directly upregulated the expression of TaPLATZ2 during saline-alkali stress. Through knockdown and overexpression of TaWRKY55 in wheat, TaWRKY55 was shown to negatively modulate salt and alkali stress tolerance.

Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.), widely cultivated in cool-season for forage supply and turfgrass, is extremely susceptible to high temperatures, therefore serving as an excellent grass for dissecting the genomic and genetic basis of high-temperature adaptation. In this study, expression analysis revealed that LpHsfA2, an important gene associated with high-temperature tolerance in perennial ryegrass, is rapidly and substantially induced under heat stress. Additionally, heat-tolerant varieties consistently display elevated expression levels of LpHsfA2 compared with heat-sensitive ones. Comparative haplotype analysis of the LpHsfA2 promoter indicated an uneven distribution of two haplotypes (HsfA2^Hap1 and HsfA2^Hap2) across varieties with differing heat tolerance. Specifically, the HsfA2^Hap1 allele is predominantly present in heat-tolerant varieties, while the HsfA2^Hap2 allele exhibits the opposite pattern. Overexpression of LpHsfA2 confers enhanced thermotolerance, whereas silencing of LpHsfA2 compromises heat tolerance. Furthermore, LpHsfA2 orchestrates its protective effects by directly binding to the promoters of LpHSP18.2 and LpAPX1 to activate their expression, preventing the non-specific misfolding of intracellular protein and the accumulation of reactive oxygen species in cells. Additionally, LpHsfA4 and LpHsfA5 were shown to engage directly with the promoter of LpHsfA2, upregulating its expression as well as the expression of LpHSP18.2 and LpAPX1, thus contributing to enhanced heat tolerance. Markedly, LpHsfA2 possesses autoregulatory ability by directly binding to its own promoter to modulate the self-transcription. Based on these findings, we propose a model for modulating the thermotolerance of perennial ryegrass by precisely regulating the expression of LpHsfA2. Collectively, these findings provide a scientific basis for the development of thermotolerant perennial ryegrass cultivars.</p>","PeriodicalId":195,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Integrative Plant Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":9.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142454303","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, the molecular mechanisms by which sucrose regulates these processes remain largely unknown. In the present study, we demonstrate that sucrose promotes flowering by mediating the stability of a regulatory protein that represses flowering in rice. Exogenous application of sucrose promoted flowering by inducing florigen gene expression. Reduction of sucrose levels in the phloem through genetic modifications, such as the overexpression of the vacuolar invertase OsVIN2 or the mutation of OsSUT2, a sucrose transporter, delayed flowering. Analysis of relative transcript levels of floral regulatory genes showed that sucrose activated Ehd1 upstream of the florigen, with no significant effect on the expression of other upstream genes. Examination of protein stability after sucrose treatment of major floral repressors revealed that the Ghd7 protein was specifically degraded. The Ghd7 protein interacted with the E3 ligase IPA INTERACTING PROTEIN1 (IPI1), and sucrose-induced K48-linked polyubiquitination of Ghd7 via IPI1, leading to protein degradation. Mutants defective in IPI1 delayed flowering, confirming its role in modulating proteins involved in flowering. We conclude that sucrose acts as a signaling molecule to induce flowering by promoting Ghd7 degradation via IPI1.</p>","PeriodicalId":195,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Integrative Plant Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":9.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142454301","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}

Salinity-delayed flowering is considered a stress coping/survival strategy and the molecular mechanisms underlying this process require further studies to enhance the crop's salt tolerance ability. A nuclear pore complex (NPC) component, HIGH EXPRESSION OF OSMOTICALLY RESPONSIVE GENE 1 (HOS1), has been recognized as a negative regulator of plant cold responses and flowering. Here, we challenged the role of HOS1 in regulating flowering in response to salinity stress. Interestingly, we discovered that HOS1 can directly interact with and ubiquitinate transcription factor SPL9 (SQUAMOSA PROMOTER BINDING PROTEIN-LIKE 9) to promote its protein degradation in response to salinity stress. Moreover, we demonstrated that HOS1 and SPL9 antagonistically regulate plant flowering under both normal and salt stress conditions.

Helix-loop-helix/basic helix-loop-helix (HLH/bHLH) complexes play important roles in fine-tuning plant development. However, the function of these genes in plant immunity and how they are regulated remain obscure. Here, we identified an atypical bHLH transcription factor, Oryza sativa (Os)HLH46, that interacts with rice receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase (RLCK) Os BRASSINOSTEROID-SIGNALING KINASE1-2 (OsBSK1-2), which plays a key role in rice blast resistance. OsBSK1-2 stabilized OsHLH46 both in vivo and in vitro. In addition, OsHLH46 positively regulates rice blast resistance, which depends on OsBSK1-2. OsHLH46 has no transcriptional activation activity and interacts with a typical bHLH protein, OsbHLH6, which negatively regulates rice blast resistance. OsbHLH6 binds to the promoter of OsWRKY45 and inhibits its expression, while OsHLH46 suppresses the function of OsbHLH6 by blocking its DNA binding and transcriptional inhibition of OsWRKY45. Consistent with these findings, OsWRKY45 was up-regulated in OsHLH46-overexpressing plants. In addition, the oshlh46 mutant overexpressing OsbHLH6 is more susceptible to Magnaporthe oryzae than is the wild type, suggesting that OsHLH46 suppresses OsbHLH6-mediated rice blast resistance.
