Transcriptomic and metabonomic analysis of quorum sensing signal (N-octanoyl-DL-homoserine lactone) on regulating poplar fine roots growth
Root-microbe transboundary communication is important to dominate the interaction between plant and microorganism. However, the influence of quorum sensing signals among bacteria community on the root growth and development is still obscure. The study focused on one quorum sensing signal isolated from poplar rhizosphere, N-octanoyl-DL-homoserine lactone (C8-HSL), and examined its influence on the morphological structure, ultrastructure, and subcellular structure of poplar roots. Transcriptome and metabolome sequencing were further performed to reveal the potential mechanisms of C8-HSL regulating the root morphological development. The results showed C8-HSL demonstrated dual regulatory effects on the growth of poplar fine roots. At high concentrations (more than 100 μM), root growth of poplar seedlings was suppressed by C8-HSL, and the primary and lateral roots appeared short and thick. Conversely, at low concentrations (10 nM), root growth was promoted by C8-HSL, and the primary and lateral roots were elongated. Fluorescent probes indicated that Ca2 + , reactive oxygen species (ROS), and nitric oxide (NO) in root tip cells were significantly up-regulated at concentrations more than 1 μM of C8-HSL, while only Ca2+ and NO concentration were significantly up-regulated at concentrations less than 1 μM of C8-HSL. Transcriptome and metabolome analysis further revealed that high concentration C8-HSL significantly upregulated the expression of poplar genes related to secondary wall biogenesis (e.g., MYB46, MYB83, CESA) and auxin transport (e.g., PIN6, AUX22B, GH3.6). In contrast, low concentration C8-HSL upregulated calmodulin expression and increased indoleacrylic acid and 3-indolebutyric acid content. Taken together, these findings provide a deeper insight to the interaction between root and microbes, and imply the potential utilization of quorum sensing signals in regulating root growth.
期刊介绍:
Environmental and Experimental Botany (EEB) publishes research papers on the physical, chemical, biological, molecular mechanisms and processes involved in the responses of plants to their environment.
In addition to research papers, the journal includes review articles. Submission is in agreement with the Editors-in-Chief.
The Journal also publishes special issues which are built by invited guest editors and are related to the main themes of EEB.
The areas covered by the Journal include:
(1) Responses of plants to heavy metals and pollutants
(2) Plant/water interactions (salinity, drought, flooding)
(3) Responses of plants to radiations ranging from UV-B to infrared
(4) Plant/atmosphere relations (ozone, CO2 , temperature)
(5) Global change impacts on plant ecophysiology
(6) Biotic interactions involving environmental factors.
