NUF resulted in a 51 ± 14.9% increase in biomass, 29.5 ± 9.1% in chlorophyll, 8.4 ± 3.1% in nitrogen, and 4.5 ± 0.3% in amino acid content of the leaves, compared to bulk urea. NUF′s zeta potential of -54.7 mV and particle size of ≃27.7 nm, measured by dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy, make it suitable for stomatal uptake. We conducted a differential gene expression analysis by mRNA sequencing to understand the molecular basis of the phenotypic gains under NUF rather than urea. NUF resulted in significantly higher expression levels of 211 genes (log2fold-change &gt; 0.5, FDR &lt; 0.05) involved in the biosynthesis of carbohydrates, amino acids, nucleotides, lipids, phytohormones, and secondary metabolites, cell wall biosynthesis and modification, growth and developmental processes, cell cycle, and stress response than bulk urea. On the other hand, 1,286 genes (log2fold-change &lt; -0.5) involved in cell death, abscission, senescence, nitrogen transport and metabolism, and biotic stress response showed lower expression levels upon NUF application than bulk urea. Our results suggest that although NUF foliar spray suppresses nitrogen uptake genes, possibly due to nitrogen excess, it enhances growth by up-regulating the synthesis of essential biomolecules and growth-promoting genes, compared to bulk urea.","PeriodicalId":501341,"journal":{"name":"bioRxiv - Plant Biology","volume":"125 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142183023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mesophyll cells of protective layer 1 (P1), just beneath the wound, transition into epidermal cells, which seal the wound by depositing cuticle. As P1 undergoes cell death, protective layer 2 (P2), which underlies P1, takes the place of P1 and undergoes ligno-suberization. This multi-layered periderm involves integration of ethylene and jasmonic acid signaling with ATML1, a key transcription factor in epidermal specification, to coordinate cell layer-specific functions.

A holistic understanding of the interplay between these nutrient deficiency responses in a single study and canola cultivar is thus far lacking, hindering efforts to increase the nutrient use efficiency of this important oil seed crop. To address this, we performed a comparative quantitative proteomic analysis of both shoot and root tissue harvested from soil-grown canola plants experiencing either nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, or sulphur deficiency. Our data provide critically needed insights into the shared and distinct molecular responses to macronutrient deficiencies in canola. Importantly, we find more conserved responses to the four different nutrient deficiencies in canola roots, with more distinct proteome changes in aboveground tissue.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of controlled nitrogen nutrition levels on disease incidence, fungal communities, and plant physiology and metabolism. Esca is a widespread grapevine vascular disease affecting physiology, xylem integrity and metabolism. Naturally infected Vitis vinifera L. cv. 'Sauvignon blanc' were subjected to three ammonium nitrate treatments across three seasons, resulting in reduced esca incidence under nitrogen deficiency compared with medium nutrition levels, while excess nitrogen had no significant impact. Nitrogen treatments significantly impacted vine physiology and leaf metabolites but did not affect fungal wood communities. Nitrogen deficiency significantly reduced stem diameter, photosynthesis, and leaf area, likely decreasing whole-plant transpiration, while excess nitrogen increased these factors suggesting a key role of plant transpiration in esca incidence. Additionally, nitrogen deficiency led to significantly higher production of phenylpropanoids, particularly antifungal flavonoids, in leaf metabolomes compared to the medium level. These findings highlight the pivotal role of nitrogen in the development of esca through alterations in vine morphology, physiology and metabolism.

This study aimed to evaluate the physiological and transcriptional changes in Fiskeby IV, a drought-tolerant genotype that loses its tolerance when exposed to simultaneous Fe deficiency and drought. In this growth incubator study, Fe deficiency and drought stress resulted in substantial reductions in plant biomass, photosynthetic efficiency, and nutrient uptake in Fiskeby IV. Despite these disruptions, the photochemical efficiency of photosystem II remained stable, suggesting the activation of protective mechanisms to maintain essential photosynthetic functions. RNA-seq analysis highlighted a complex response, showing the upregulation of ethylene-responsive genes (Ethylene-response sensor 2, Ethylene-responsive TF018, Ethylene-responsive TF5) as well as the genes related to rhizosphere acidification (ATPase 1) and redox homeostasis (Glutaredoxin-3). It suggests that ethylene signaling and rhizosphere acidification may be responsive in coordinating Fe homeostasis and drought adaptation in soybean. On the flip side, combined stresses caused the downregulation of several genes related to nutrient uptake (nicotianamine transporter YSL1, ammonium transporter 2, sulfate transporter 3.4, and major facilitator family protein). In a targeted study, supplementation with 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC), an ethylene precursor, led to substantial improvements in morpho-physiological traits and Fe status under combined stress conditions. This ACC treatment enhanced root flavonoid content and rhizosphere siderophore levels accompanied by restoration of 16S and ITS microbial community under Fe deficiency and drought. It underscores the potential of targeting ethylene signaling that may facilitate Fe mobilization and microbial interactions to enhance soybean tolerance to concurrent Fe deficiency and drought. This is the first report on the transcriptional response and requirement of Fe status underlying drought tolerance, potentially guiding future strategies for improving combined stress resilience in soybean.","PeriodicalId":501341,"journal":{"name":"bioRxiv - Plant Biology","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142183084","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the current work, we identified raffinose, a sugar linked to plant stress responses, as a novel plant autophagy inducer.

In contrast, plunge-freezing in liquid ethane rapidly preserves cells in a near-native vitreous state for cryogenic electron microscopy. Using this approach, we applied Cryo-Focused Ion Beam-Scanning Electron Microscopy (cryo-FIB-SEM) to study the guard cell ultrastructure of Vicia faba, a higher plant model chosen for its sensitivity to external factors and ease of epidermis isolation, advancing beyond previous cryo-FIB-SEM applications in lower plant algae. The results firstly introduced cryo-FIB-SEM volume imaging, enabling subcellular ultrastructure visualization of higher plants like V. faba in a vitrified, unaltered state. 3D models of organelles such as stromules, chloroplast protrusions, chloroplasts, starch granules, mitochondria, and vacuoles were reconstructed from cryo-FIB-SEM volumetric data, with their surface area and volume initially determined using manual segmentation.

The quantity and composition of root exudates vary depending on the species, genotype, and environmental conditions, including the presence and identity of neighbouring plants. Although cover crops are commonly used in agricultural practices for their ecosystem services, such as weed suppression, pathogen control, and soil structure improvement, studies on their root exudates are limited. Our study provides the first characterization of the root exudates of black oat interacting with weed neighbours, redroot pigweed and blackgrass, as well as with neighbours of the same species, black oat. We investigated how these interactions influence the black oat root exudation patterns. Furthermore, we investigated the impact of black oat presence on neighbours and how exposure to black oat root exudate treatments affects the root traits of weeds. The upregulated compounds detected in root exudates in response to neighbouring plants primarily belonged to the organic oxygen compounds superclass, with most of which identified as amino acids and carbohydrates. In the presence of redroot pigweed, a general increase in root exudation was observed, with amino acids and sugar sulphates being upregulated. The presence of black oat had varying effects among the neighbouring plants. While significant decreases observed and black oat in redroot pigweed root traits, an increase was observed in blackgrass. Similarly, more pronounced effects were observed in redroot pigweed compared to blackgrass upon root exudate application. This study provides a characterization and insights into the dynamic nature of root exudates and their influence on root traits and plant interactions.","PeriodicalId":501341,"journal":{"name":"bioRxiv - Plant Biology","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142183034","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
