Despite their significant role, only a limited number has been studied in detail. Here, we describe at the molecular and bioinformatics levels a TBP2-associated long intergenic non-coding RNA (TALIR) encoded upstream of TATA-binding protein 2 (TBP2) in Arabidopsis thaliana. Downregulation of TALIR leads to plants with reduced leaf and rosette size, as well as decreased lateral root density. The expression of TBP2 in talir mutant lines was higher than in wild-type (WT), affecting the timing of expression of miR396 and GRF2, as well as miR156 and SPL9; these dysregulations may in part contribute to the altered leaf size observed. Transcriptional evidence from the TBP2 locus suggests the presence of a putative TALIR ortholog gene, which is conserved across the Brassicaceae, Eutremeae, and Camelineae tribes at the DNA sequence and synteny levels. Furthermore, TALIR is upregulated upon ABA and NaCl treatments in WT plants, while talir mutants exhibit insensitivity to ABA during germination. Together, these findings expand current knowledge of lncRNAs and provide new insights into the regulation of miR396 and miR156 in the control of leaf growth. Further, the evolutionary conservation of TALIR among tribes within the Brassicaceae family suggests a conserved functional role in this group of plants.</p>","PeriodicalId":20575,"journal":{"name":"Plant and Cell Physiology","volume":" ","pages":"1137-1150"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2026-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147513892","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the existing methods for quantifying posture typically compress its inherently three-dimensional structure into scalar values or single vectors, leaving the 3D aspects of leaf movement poorly understood. For a more complete geometric description, we propose representing leaf-blade posture by an orthonormal basis (ONB), defined as three perpendicular unit vectors aligned with the developmental axes of the leaf. This ONB serves as a local coordinate system and corresponds to rotation matrices used to represent orientation in three-dimensional space, embedding leaf posture within the mathematical structure of the special orthogonal group SO(3). Using three-dimensional point-cloud data, we reconstructed an ONB aligned with the three axes of the leaf blade and quantified elevation and azimuth angles. When applied to diurnal posture changes, the resulting angular patterns were consistent with previous observations. We then visualized posture changes after gravitational perturbation as continuous rotational trajectories. These trajectories could be compared with mathematically defined geodesic shortest paths and used to simulate alternative reorientation routes that satisfy constraints. The rotational trajectories could also be separated into swing and twist components, which reflect distinct deformation modes. The ONB can be obtained not only from three-dimensional point clouds but also from other measurement tools, making the approach broadly applicable.

Consequently, Fe limitation in agricultural systems not only compromises crop productivity but also poses a significant threat to human nutritional security. Due to the limited bioavailability of Fe in the soil, plants have evolved adaptive strategies that can regulate Fe absorption and internal balance, thereby optimizing their survival ability under Fe-deficient conditions. BRUTUS (BTS), an Fe sensor possessing E3 ligase activity, acts as a negative regulator of the Fe deficiency response by targeting bHLH subgroup IVc transcription factors for degradation. In this study, we employed yeast one-hybrid screening to identify WRKY13, an Arabidopsis transcription factor that directly regulates BTS transcription. The expression patterns of WRKY13 and BTS exhibited similarity during the transition from Fe deficiency to Fe resupply. WRKY13 mutants display increased tolerance to Fe deficiency, whereas WRKY13 complementation lines reverse the tolerance of wrky13 mutants to wild-type levels, effectively reversing the mutant phenotype under Fe-deficient conditions. Furthermore, WRKY13 was found to directly activate BTS expression by binding to W-box motifs within the BTS promoter region. Genetic analysis positioned WRKY13 upstream of BTS within the Fe homeostasis pathway. Collectively, our findings indicate that Fe deficiency stress induces WRKY13 expression, which in turn directly activates BTS transcription to maintain cellular Fe homeostasis.
