| 3 | A novel mitochondrial protein is required for cell wall integrity,auxin accumulation and root elongation in Arabidopsis under salt stress显示文摘Maintenance of root elongation is beneficial for the growth and survival of plants under salt stress,but currently the cellular components involved in the regulation of root growth under high salinity are not fully understood.In this study,we identified an Arabidopsis mutant,rres1,which exhibited reduced root elongation under treatment of a variety of salts,including NaCl,NaNO3,KCl,and KNO3.RRES1 encodes a novel mitochondrial protein and its molecular function is still unknown.Under salt stress,the root meristem length was shorter in the rres1 mutant compared to the wild type,which was correlated with a reduced auxin accumulation in the mutant.Reactive oxygen species(ROS),as important signals that regulate root elongation,were accumulated to higher levels in the rres1 mutant than the wild type after salt treatment.Measurement of monosaccharides in the cell wall showed that arabinose and xylose contents were decreased in the rres1 mutant under salt stress,and application of boric acid,which is required for the crosslinking of pectic polysaccharide rhamnogalacturonan-II(RG-II),largely rescued the root growth arrest of the rres1 mutant,suggesting that RRES1 participates in the maintenance of cell wall integrity under salt stress.GUS staining assay indicated that the RRES1 gene was expressed in leaves and weakly in root tip under normal conditions,but its expression was dramatically increased in leaves and roots after salt treatment.Together,our study reveals a novel mitochondrial protein that regulates root elongation under salt stress via the modulation of cell wall integrity,auxin accumulation,and ROS homeostasis. | Zheping Yu Yuying Ren Jianwei Liu Jian-Kang Zhu Chunzhao Zhao | 2022 | Stress Biology2022，2，1： | 0 |
