Int J Mol Sci 2023; 25:488. [PMID: 38203660 PMCID: PMC10779407 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25010488] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 12/23/2023] [Accepted: 12/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Jasmine, a recently domesticated shrub, is renowned for its use as a key ingredient in floral tea and its captivating fragrance, showcasing significant ornamental and economic value. When cultivated to subtropical zone, a significant abiotic stress adaptability occurs among different jasmine varieties, leading to huge flower production changes and plantlet survival. The bZIP transcription factors (TFs) are reported to play indispensable roles in abiotic stress tolerance. Here, we performed a genome-level comparison of bZIPs using three-type jasmine genomes. Based on their physicochemical properties, conserved motif analysis and phylogenetic analysis, about 63 bZIP genes were identified and clustered in jasmine genomes, noting a difference of one member compared to the other two types of jasmines. The HTbZIP genes were categorized into 12 subfamilies compared with A. thaliana. In cis-acting element analysis, all genes contained light-responsive elements. The abscisic acid response element (ABRE) was the most abundant in HTbZIP62 promoter, followed by HTbZIP33. Tissue-specific genes of the bZIPs may play a crucial role in regulating the development of jasmine organs and tissues, with HTbZIP36 showing the most significant expressions in roots. Combined with complicated protein interactions, HTbZIP62 and HTbZIP33 might play a crucial role in the ABA signaling pathway and stress tolerance. Combined with RT-qPCR analysis, SJbZIP37/57/62 were more sensitive to ABA response genes compared with other bZIPs in DJ amd HT genomes. Our findings provide a useful resource for further research on the regulation of key genes to improve abiotic stress tolerance in jasmine.

Abstract
Covering: 2010 to 2023Floral volatiles are a chemically diverse group of plant metabolites that serve multiple functions. Their composition is shaped by environmental, ecological and evolutionary factors. This review will summarize recent advances in floral scent research from chemical, molecular and ecological perspectives. It will focus on the major chemical classes of floral volatiles, on notable new structures, and on recent discoveries regarding the biosynthesis and the regulation of volatile emission. Special attention will be devoted to the various functions of floral volatiles, not only as attractants for different types of pollinators, but also as defenses of flowers against enemies. We will also summarize recent findings on how floral volatiles are affected by abiotic stressors, such as increased temperatures and drought, and by other organisms, such as herbivores and flower-dwelling microbes. Finally, this review will indicate current research gaps, such as the very limited knowledge of the isomeric pattern of chiral compounds and its importance in interspecific interactions.

Abstract
The Jasminum sambac flower is famous for its rich fragrance. However, our knowledge of the regulatory network for its aroma formation remains largely unknown and therefore needs further study. To this end, an integrated analysis of the volatilomics and transcriptomics of jasmine flowers at different flowering stages was performed. The results revealed many candidate transcription factors (TFs) may be involved in regulating the aroma formation of jasmine, among which the MYB-related TF LATE ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL (JsLHY) was identified as a hub gene. Using the DNA affinity purification sequencing method, dual-luciferase reporter, and yeast one-hybrid assays, we demonstrate that JsLHY can bind the gene promoter regions of six aroma-related structural genes (JsBEAT1, JsTPS34, JsCNL6, JsBPBT, JsAAAT5, and Js4CL7) and directly promote their expression. In addition, suppressing JsLHY expression decreased both the expression of JsLHY-bound genes and the content of related VOCs. The present study reveals how JsLHY participates in jasmine aroma formation.

Abstract
The BAHD acyltransferase family is a class of proteins in plants that can acylate a variety of primary and specialized secondary metabolites. The typically acylated products have greatly improved stability, lipid solubility, and bioavailability and thus show significant differences in their physicochemical properties and pharmacological activities. Here, we review the protein structure, catalytic mechanism, and phylogenetic reconstruction of plant BAHD acyltransferases to describe their family characteristics, acylation reactions, and the processes of potential functional differentiation. Moreover, the potential applications of the BAHD family in human activities are discussed from the perspectives of improving the quality of economic plants, enhancing the efficacy of medicinal plants, improving plant biomass for use in biofuel, and promoting stress resistance of land plants. This review provides a reference for the research and production of plant BAHD acyltransferases.

MARINE POLLUTION BULLETIN 2014; 85:738-46. [PMID: 24768170 DOI: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2014.04.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2013] [Revised: 03/22/2014] [Accepted: 04/01/2014] [Indexed: 05/06/2023]
Abstract
The effect of different concentrations of NaCl, 0, 100, 200, 300 and 400 mM, on the anatomical features and physiology of Myoporum bontioides was investigated. The photosynthetic rates (Pn) were significantly reduced by salt stress, with the lowest values at 400 mM NaCl. The content of malondialdehyde (MDA), proline and soluble sugar, as well as the activities of peroxidase (POD) and catalase (CAT) increased at the beginning, but became similar to the control as the experiment proceeded. The NaCl effect on superoxide dismutase (SOD) was different from the other parameters, with a significant reduction at 400 mM NaCl at Day 7. Salt glands were found in both upper and lower epidermis, and the ratios of the thickness of palisade to spongy mesophyll tissues increased with NaCl concentrations. The medullary ray was clearly damaged by NaCl at levels of 200 and 300 mM. These results demonstrated that M. bontioides could adapt to a relatively low salinity, and was not a halophilous species.
