JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2024; 104:1178-1189. [PMID: 37743545 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.13004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2023] [Revised: 09/13/2023] [Accepted: 09/22/2023] [Indexed: 09/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Riboflavin, a vital water-soluble vitamin with antioxidative activity, plays a critical role in maintaining overall bodily health and defense responses. However, its impact on fragrant rice yield and aroma remains unexplored. RESULTS In a 2022 pot experiment with Meixiangzhan and Yuxiangyouzhan fragrant rice cultivars, we applied riboflavin foliar treatments at concentrations of 0 (CK), 10 (R10), 20 (R20), and 40 (R40) mg L-1 during the initial heading stage. Riboflavin increased rice yield, 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2-AP) content, and antioxidative properties. It boosted 2-AP level by 13.1-50.1% for Meixiangzhan and 22.3-35.3% for Yuxiangyouzhan, with the highest levels in R20 and R10 treatments. This increase is significantly correlated with elevated levels of proline, pyrroline-5-carboxylic acid, pyrroline, and methylglyoxal, as well as heightened enzyme activities, including those of proline dehydrogenase, ornithine aminotransferase, and pyrroline-5-carboxylic acid synthetase (P5CS). The R20 treatment resulted in the highest yield due to an improved seed-setting rate. Importantly, a positive correlation emerged between 2-AP content and yield, both significantly linked to superoxide dismutase, proline, hydrogen peroxide, P5CS, catalase, and pyrroline. CONCLUSION Riboflavin maintained enzyme activities, regulated substance synthesis pathways, and increased 2-AP and yield, especially in the R20 treatment. These insights advance fragrant rice production theory by uncovering riboflavin's role in the development of fragrant rice. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

PWL1, a G-type lectin receptor-like kinase, positively regulates leaf senescence and heat tolerance but negatively regulates resistance to Xanthomonas oryzae in rice. PLANT BIOTECHNOLOGY JOURNAL 2023; 21:2525-2545. [PMID: 37578160 PMCID: PMC10651159 DOI: 10.1111/pbi.14150] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2023] [Revised: 07/13/2023] [Accepted: 07/23/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023]
Abstract
Plant leaf senescence, caused by multiple internal and environmental factors, has an important impact on agricultural production. The lectin receptor-like kinase (LecRLK) family members participate in plant development and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses, but their roles in regulating leaf senescence remain elusive. Here, we identify and characterize a rice premature withered leaf 1 (pwl1) mutant, which exhibits premature leaf senescence throughout the plant life cycle. The pwl1 mutant displayed withered and whitish leaf tips, decreased chlorophyll content, and accelerated chloroplast degradation. Map-based cloning revealed an amino acid substitution (Gly412Arg) in LOC_Os03g62180 (PWL1) was responsible for the phenotypes of pwl1. The expression of PWL1 was detected in all tissues, but predominantly in tillering and mature leaves. PWL1 encodes a G-type LecRLK with active kinase and autophosphorylation activities. PWL1 is localized to the plasma membrane and can self-associate, mainly mediated by the plasminogen-apple-nematode (PAN) domain. Substitution of the PAN domain significantly diminished the self-interaction of PWL1. Moreover, the pwl1 mutant showed enhanced reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, cell death, and severe DNA fragmentation. RNA sequencing analysis revealed that PWL1 was involved in the regulation of multiple biological processes, like carbon metabolism, ribosome, and peroxisome pathways. Meanwhile, interfering of biological processes induced by the PWL1 mutation also enhanced heat sensitivity and resistance to bacterial blight and bacterial leaf streak with excessive accumulation of ROS and impaired chloroplast development in rice. Natural variation analysis indicated more variations in indica varieties, and the vast majority of japonica varieties harbour the PWL1Hap1 allele. Together, our results suggest that PWL1, a member of LecRLKs, exerts multiple roles in regulating plant growth and development, heat-tolerance, and resistance to bacterial pathogens.

TaMADS29 interacts with TaNF-YB1 to synergistically regulate early grain development in bread wheat. SCIENCE CHINA. LIFE SCIENCES 2023:10.1007/s11427-022-2286-0.

Abstract
Grain development is a crucial determinant of yield and quality in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). However, the regulatory mechanisms underlying wheat grain development remain elusive. Here we report how TaMADS29 interacts with TaNF-YB1 to synergistically regulate early grain development in bread wheat. The tamads29 mutants generated by CRISPR/Cas9 exhibited severe grain filling deficiency, coupled with excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and abnormal programmed cell death that occurred in early developing grains, while overexpression of TaMADS29 increased grain width and 1,000-kernel weight. Further analysis revealed that TaMADS29 interacted directly with TaNF-YB1; null mutation in TaNF-YB1 caused grain developmental deficiency similar to tamads29 mutants. The regulatory complex composed of TaMADS29 and TaNF-YB1 exercises its possible function that inhibits the excessive accumulation of ROS by regulating the genes involved in chloroplast development and photosynthesis in early developing wheat grains and prevents nucellar projection degradation and endosperm cell death, facilitating transportation of nutrients into the endosperm and wholly filling of developing grains. Collectively, our work not only discloses the molecular mechanism of MADS-box and NF-Y TFs in facilitating bread wheat grain development, but also indicates that caryopsis chloroplast might be a central regulator of grain development rather than merely a photosynthesis organelle. More importantly, our work offers an innovative way to breed high-yield wheat cultivars by controlling the ROS level in developing grains.

Abstract
Chloroplast is an important organelle for photosynthesis and numerous essential metabolic processes, thus ensuring plant fitness or survival. Although many genes involved in chloroplast development have been identified, mechanisms underlying such development are not fully understood. Here, we isolated and characterized the stripe3 (st3) mutant which exhibited white-striped leaves with reduced chlorophyll content and abnormal chloroplast development during the seedling stage, but gradually produced nearly normal green leaves as it developed. Map-based cloning and transgenic tests demonstrated that a splicing mutation in ST3, encoding a human deoxynucleoside triphosphate triphosphohydrolase (dNTPase) SAMHD1 homolog, was responsible for st3 phenotypes. ST3 is highly expressed in the third leaf at three-leaf stage and expressed constitutively in root, stem, leaf, sheath, and panicle, and the encoded protein, OsSAMHD1, is localized to the cytoplasm. The st3 mutant showed more severe albino leaf phenotype under exogenous 1-mM dATP/dA, dCTP/dC, and dGTP/dG treatments compared with the control conditions, indicating that ST3 is involved in dNTP metabolism. This study reveals a gene associated with dNTP catabolism, and propose a model in which chloroplast development in rice is regulated by the dNTP pool, providing a potential application of these results to hybrid rice breeding.

Abstract
Lesion-mimic mutants are useful materials to dissect mechanisms controlling programmed cell death (PCD) and defense response in plants. Although dozens of lesion-mimic mutant genes have been identified in plants, the molecular mechanisms underlying PCD and defense response remain to be extensively elucidated. Here, we identified a rice lesion mimic mutant, named lesion mimic 42 (lm42), from an ethylmethylsulfone (EMS)-induced mutant population. The lm42 mutant displayed flame-red spots on the leaves and sheaths at the 3-leaf developmental stage and exhibited impaired photosynthetic capacity with decreased chlorophyll content and decomposed chloroplast thylakoids. The lesion development of lm42 was light- and temperature-dependent. We identified a single base mutation (T38A), changing a Leu to Gln, in the first exon of LOC_Os12g16720 (LM42), which encodes a tryptamine 5-hydroxylase, by map-based cloning. We carried out transgenic complementation to confirm that this mutation caused the lm42 phenotype. We further knocked out the LM42 gene by CRISPR/Cas9 to recreate the lm42 phenotype. LM42 is highly expressed in leaves, leaf sheaths and roots. Loss-of-function of LM42 activated expression of ROS-generating genes and inhibited expression of ROS-scavenging genes, leading to ROS accumulation and eventually cell death. Furthermore, its disruption induced expression of defense-response genes and enhanced host resistance to both fungal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae and bacterial pathogen Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae. Our transcriptomic data suggested that the way lm42 led to lesion-mimic was probably by affecting ribosome development. Overall, our results demonstrate that tryptamine 5-hydroxylase-coding gene LM42 is required for suppression of cell death and uncontrolled activation of defense responses in rice.

Abstract
Lesion mimic mutants provide ideal genetic materials for elucidating the molecular mechanism of cell death and disease resistance. The maize necrotic leaf mutant (nec-t) is a recessive mutant with necrotic spots and yellow-green leaves. In this study, we found that nec-t was a light and temperature-dependent mutant. Map-based cloning and the allelic test revealed that nec-t was a novel allelic mutant of the Necrotic4 gene. Necrotic4 encodes the coproporphyrinogen III oxidase (CPX1), a key enzyme in the tetrapyrrole pathway, catalyzing coproporphyrinogen III oxidate to protoporphyrinogen IX. Subcellular localization showed that the necrotic4 protein was localized in the chloroplast. Furthermore, RNA-seq analysis showed that the Necrotic4 mutation caused the enhanced chlorophyll degradation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) response. The mechanism of plant lesion formation induced by light and temperature is not clear. Our research provides a basis for understanding the molecular mechanism of necrosis initiation in maize.
