Abstract
Ribosome biogenesis is a fundamental process in eukaryotic cells. NOTCHLESS (NLE) is involved in 60S ribosome biogenesis in yeast, but its role in Arabidopsis (A. thaliana) remains exclusive. Here, we found that Arabidopsis NLE (AtNLE) is highly conservative in phylogeny, which encoding a WD40-repeat protein. AtNLE is expressed in actively dividing tissues. AtNLE-GFP is localized in the nucleus. AtNLE physically interacts with the MIDAS domain of AtMDN1, a protein involved in the biogenesis of the 60S ribosomal subunit in Arabidopsis. The underexpressing mutant nle-2 shows short roots and reduced cell number in the root meristem. In addition, the null mutant nle-1 is embryo lethal, and defective embryos are arrested at the early globular stage. This work suggests that AtNLE interacts with AtMDN1, and AtNLE functions in root and embryo development.

Abstract
In plant cells, multiple paralogs from ribosomal protein (RP) families are always synchronously expressed, which is likely contributing to ribosome heterogeneity or functional specialization. However, previous studies have shown that most RP mutants share common phenotypes. Consequently, it is difficult to distinguish whether the phenotypes of the mutants have resulted from the loss of specific genes or a global ribosome deficiency. Here, to investigate the role of a specific RP gene, we employed a gene overexpression strategy. We found that Arabidopsis lines overexpressing RPL16D (L16D-OEs) display short and curled rosette leaves. Microscopic observations reveal that both the cell size and cell arrangement are affected in L16D-OEs. The severity of the defect is positively correlated with RPL16D dosage. By combining transcriptomic and proteomic profiling, we found that overexpressing RPL16D decreases the expression of genes involved in plant growth, but increases the expression of genes involved in immune response. Overall, our results suggest that RPL16D is involved in the balance between plant growth and immune response.

Abstract
KEY MESSAGE Genetic characterization of a major spot form net blotch susceptibility locus to using linkage mapping to identify a candidate gene and user-friendly markers in barley. Spot form net blotch (SFNB), caused by the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Pyrenophora teres f. maculata (Ptm), is an economically important foliar diseases in barley. Although various resistance loci have been identified, breeding for SFNB-resistant varieties has been hampered due to the complex virulence profile of Ptm populations. One resistance locus in the host may be effective against one specific isolate, but it may confer susceptibility to other isolates. A major susceptibility QTL on chromosome 7H, named Sptm1, was consistently identified in many studies. In the present study, we conduct fine mapping to localize Sptm1 with high resolution. A segregating population was developed from selected F2 progenies of the cross Tradition (S) × PI 67381 (R), in which the disease phenotype was determined by the Sptm1 locus alone. Disease phenotypes of critical recombinants were confirmed in the following two consecutive generations. Genetic mapping anchored the Sptm1 gene to an ⁓400 kb region on chromosome 7H. Gene prediction and annotation identified six protein-coding genes in the delimited Sptm1 region, and the gene encoding a putative cold-responsive protein kinase was selected as a strong candidate. Therefore, providing fine localization and candidate of Sptm1 for functional validation, our study will facilitate the understanding of susceptibility mechanism underlying the barley-Ptm interaction and offers a potential target for gene editing to develop valuable materials with broad-spectrum resistance to SFNB.

Mutation of an Essential 60S Ribosome Assembly Factor MIDASIN 1 Induces Early Flowering in Arabidopsis. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23126509. [PMID: 35742952 PMCID: PMC9223865 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23126509] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2022] [Revised: 06/08/2022] [Accepted: 06/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Ribosome biogenesis is tightly associated with plant growth and reproduction. Mutations in genes encoding ribosomal proteins (RPs) or ribosome biogenesis factors (RBFs) generally result in retarded growth and delayed flowering. However, the early-flowering phenotype resulting from the ribosome biogenesis defect is rarely reported. We previously identified that the AAA-ATPase MIDASIN 1 (MDN1) functions as a 60S RBF in Arabidopsis. Here, we found that its weak mutant mdn1-1 is early-flowering. Transcriptomic analysis showed that the expression of FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) is down-regulated, while that of some autonomous pathway genes and ABSCISIC ACID-INSENSITIVE 5 (ABI5) is up-regulated in mdn1-1. Phenotypic analysis revealed that the flowering time of mdn1-1 is severely delayed by increasing FLC expression, suggesting that the early flowering in mdn1-1 is likely associated with the downregulation of FLC. We also found that the photoperiod pathway downstream of CONSTANTS (CO) and FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) might contribute to the early flowering in mdn1-1. Intriguingly, the abi5-4 allele completely blocks the early flowering in mdn1-1. Collectively, our results indicate that the ribosome biogenesis defect elicited by the mutation of MDN1 leads to early flowering by affecting multiple flowering regulation pathways.

Abstract
Ribosomes are required for plant growth and development, and ribosome biogenesis-deficient mutants generally display auxin-related phenotypes. Although the relationship between ribosome dysfunction and auxin is known, many aspects of this subject remain to be understood. We previously reported that MIDASIN 1 (MDN1) is an essential pre-60S ribosome biogenesis factor (RBF) in Arabidopsis. In this study, we further characterized the aberrant auxin-related phenotypes of mdn1-1, a weak mutant allele of MDN1. Auxin response is disturbed in both shoots and roots of mdn1-1, as indicated by the DR5:GUS reporter. By combining transcriptome profiling analysis and reporter gene detection, we found that expression of genes involved in auxin biosynthesis, transport, and signaling is changed in mdn1-1. Furthermore, MDN1 deficiency affects the post-transcriptional regulation and protein distribution of PIN-FORMED 2 (PIN2, an auxin efflux facilitator) in mdn1-1 roots. These results indicate that MDN1 is required for maintaining the auxin system. More interestingly, MDN1 is an auxin-responsive gene, and its promoter can be targeted by multiple AUXIN RESPONSE FACTORs (ARFs), including ARF7 and ARF19, in vitro. Indeed, in arf7 arf19, the auxin sensitivity of MDN1 expression is significantly reduced. Together, our results reveal a coordination mechanism between auxin and MDN1-dependent ribosome biogenesis for regulating plant development.

Abstract
Previous studies have suggested that the plastid translation elongation factor, elongation factor thermo unstable (EF-Tu), encoded by RAB GTPASE HOMOLOG 8D (RAB8D) is essential for plant growth. Here, through analyzing the root phenotypes of two knock-down alleles of RAB8D (rab8d-1 and rab8d-2), we further revealed a vital role for RAB8D in primary root development through the maintenance of both the stem cell niche (SCN) and the meristem. Our results showed that RAB8D deficiency affects the root auxin response and SCN maintenance signaling. RAB8D interacts with GENOMES UNCOUPLED 1 (GUN1) in vivo. Further analysis revealed that GUN1 is over-accumulated and is required for both stem cell death and maintenance of root architecture in rab8d Arabidopsis mutants. The ATAXIA-TELANGIECTASIA-MUTATED (ATM)-SUPPRESSOR OF GAMMA RESPONSE 1 pathway is involved in the regulation of root meristem size through upregulating SIAMESE-RELATED 5 expression in the rab8d-2 allele. Moreover, ETHYLENE RESPONSE FACTOR 115 is highly expressed in rab8d-2, which plays a role in further quiescent center division. Our observations not only characterized the role of RAB8D in root development, but also uncovered functions of GUN1 and ATM in response to plastid EF-Tu deficiency.

Abstract
Mulberry (Morus spp.) is the sole plant consumed by the domesticated silkworm. However, the genome of domesticated mulberry has not yet been sequenced, and the ploidy level of this species remains unclear. Here, we report a high-quality, chromosome-level domesticated mulberry (Morus alba) genome. Analysis of genomic data and karyotype analyses confirmed that M. alba is a diploid with 28 chromosomes (2n = 2x = 28). Population genomic analysis based on resequencing of 134 mulberry accessions classified domesticated mulberry into three geographical groups, namely, Taihu Basin of southeastern China (Hu mulberry), northern and southwestern China, and Japan. Hu mulberry had the lowest nucleotide diversity among these accessions and demonstrated obvious signatures of selection associated with environmental adaptation. Further phylogenetic analysis supports a previous proposal that multiple domesticated mulberry accessions previously classified as different species actually belong to one species. This study expands our understanding of genome evolution of the genus Morus and population structure of domesticated mulberry, which would facilitate mulberry breeding and improvement.

Abstract
Seed germination and formation are the beginning and ending, respectively, of a plant life cycle. These two processes are under fine regulation by the internal genetic information. Previously, we demonstrated that Arabidopsis MIDASIN 1 (MDN1) is required for ribosome biogenesis, and its dysfunction leads to pleiotropic developmental phenotypes, including impaired embryogenesis and slow seed germination. In this study, we further found that the weak mutant of MDN1, mdn1-1, exhibits an increased seed size phenotype. Seed proteomic analysis reveals that a number of proteins involved in seed development and response to external environments are mis-regulated by the MDN1 dysfunction. Many 2S seed storage proteins (SSPs) and late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins are over-accumulated in the dry seeds of mdn1-1. Further, some genes encoding seed storage reserves are also upregulated in mdn1-1 seedlings. More interestingly, abscisic acid-insensitive 5 (ABI5) is over-accumulated in mdn1-1 seeds, and the loss of its function partially rescues the low seed germination rate of mdn1-1. Together, this study further demonstrates that MDN1 is essential for establishing a normal seed proteome, and its mutation triggers ABI5-mediated repression of seed germination.

Abstract
The transcription of 18S, 5.8S, and 18S rRNA genes (45S rDNA), cotranscriptional processing of pre-rRNA, and assembly of mature rRNA with ribosomal proteins are the linchpins of ribosome biogenesis. In yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and animal cells, hundreds of pre-rRNA processing factors have been identified and their involvement in ribosome assembly determined. These studies, together with structural analyses, have yielded comprehensive models of the pre-40S and pre-60S ribosome subunits as well as the largest cotranscriptionally assembled preribosome particle: the 90S/small subunit processome. Here, we present the current knowledge of the functional organization of 45S rDNA, pre-rRNA transcription, rRNA processing activities, and ribosome assembly factors in plants, focusing on data from Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). Based on yeast and mammalian cell studies, we describe the ribonucleoprotein complexes and RNA-associated activities and discuss how they might specifically affect the production of 40S and 60S subunits. Finally, we review recent findings concerning pre-rRNA processing pathways and a novel mechanism involved in a ribosome stress response in plants.

PLANT PHYSIOLOGY 2019; 180:289-304.

Abstract
Ribosome biogenesis is an orchestrated process that relies on many assembly factors. The AAA-ATPase Midasin 1 (Mdn1) functions as a ribosome assembly factor in yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), but the roles of MDN1 in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) are poorly understood. Here, we showed that the Arabidopsis null mutant of MDN1 is embryo-lethal. Using the weak mutant mdn1-1, which maintains viability, we found that MDN1 is critical for the regular pattern of auxin maxima in the globular embryo and functions in root meristem maintenance. By detecting the subcellular distribution of ribosome proteins, we noted that mdn1-1 impairs nuclear export of the pre-60S ribosomal particle. The processing of ribosomal precusor RNAs, including 35S, 27SB, and 20S, is also affected in this mutant. MDN1 physically interacts with PESCADILLO2 (PES2), an essential assembly factor of the 60S ribosome, and the observed mislocalization of PES2 in mdn1-1 further implied that MDN1 plays an indispensable role in 60S ribosome biogenesis. Therefore, the observed hypersensitivity of mdn1-1 to a eukaryotic translation inhibitor and high-sugar conditions might be associated with the defect in ribosome biogenesis. Overall, this work establishes a role of Arabidopsis MDN1 in ribosome biogenesis, which agrees with its roles in embryogenesis and root development.

Abstract
The soilborne pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum is the causal agent of bacterial wilt and causes significant crop loss in the Solanaceae family. The pathogen first infects roots, which are a critical source of resistance in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.). Roots of both resistant and susceptible plants are colonized by the pathogen, yet rootstocks can provide significant levels of resistance. Currently, mechanisms of this 'root-mediated resistance' remain largely unknown. To identify the molecular basis of this resistance, we analyzed the genome-wide transcriptional response of roots of resistant 'Hawaii 7996' and susceptible 'West Virginia 700' (WV) tomatoes at multiple timepoints after inoculation with R. solanacearum. We found that defense pathways in roots of the resistant Hawaii 7996 are activated earlier and more strongly than roots of susceptible WV. Further, auxin signaling and transport pathways are suppressed in roots of the resistant variety. Functional analysis of an auxin transport mutant in tomato revealed a role for auxin pathways in bacterial wilt. Together, our results suggest that roots mediate resistance to R. solanacearum through genome-wide transcriptomic changes that result in strong activation of defense genes and alteration of auxin pathways.
