Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are the key players in regulating developmental processes of plants. Plants have evolved a large array of gene families to facilitate the ROS-regulated developmental process in roots and leaves. However, the cellular targets of ROS during plant evolutionary development are still elusive. Here, we found early evolution and large expansions of protein families such as mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) in the evolutionarily important plant lineages. We review the recent advances in interactions among ROS, phytohormones, gasotransmitters, and protein kinases. We propose that these signaling molecules act in concert to maintain cellular ROS homeostasis in developmental processes of root and leaf to ensure the fine-tuning of plant growth for better adaptation to the changing climate.

PLANT PHYSIOLOGY AND BIOCHEMISTRY : PPB 2024; 212:108730. [PMID: 38763004 DOI: 10.1016/j.plaphy.2024.108730] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2024] [Revised: 04/28/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024]
Abstract
Over the past decade, a plethora of research has illuminated the multifaceted roles of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in plant physiology. This gaseous molecule, endowed with signaling properties, plays a pivotal role in mitigating metal-induced oxidative stress and strengthening the plant's ability to withstand harsh environmental conditions. It fulfils several functions in regulating plant development while ameliorating the adverse impacts of environmental stressors. The intricate connections among nitric oxide (NO), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and hydrogen sulfide in plant signaling, along with their involvement in direct chemical processes, are contributory in facilitating post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins that target cysteine residues. Therefore, the present review offers a comprehensive overview of sulfur metabolic pathways regulated by hydrogen sulfide, alongside the advancements in understanding its biological activities in plant growth and development. Specifically, it centres on the physiological roles of H2S in responding to environmental stressors to explore the crucial significance of different exogenously administered hydrogen sulfide donors in mitigating the toxicity associated with heavy metals (HMs). These donors are of utmost importance in facilitating the plant development, stabilization of physiological and biochemical processes, and augmentation of anti-oxidative metabolic pathways. Furthermore, the review delves into the interaction between different growth regulators and endogenous hydrogen sulfide and their contributions to mitigating metal-induced phytotoxicity.

PLANT PHYSIOLOGY AND BIOCHEMISTRY : PPB 2024; 208:108443.

Abstract
Drought is a major limiting factor for the growth and development of pumpkins. Plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIPs) are major water channels that play a crucial role in the regulation of cellular water status and solute trafficking during drought conditions. CmoPIP1-4 is a plasma membrane-localized protein that is significantly upregulated in roots and leaves under drought-stress conditions. In this study, the overexpression of CmoPIP1-4 enhances drought resistance in yeast. In contrast, CRISPR-mediated CmoPIP1-4 knockout in pumpkin roots increased drought sensitivity. This increased drought sensitivity of CmoPIP1-4 knockout plants is associated with a decline in the levels of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and abscisic acid (ABA), accompanied by an increase in water loss caused by greater levels of transpiration and stomatal conductance. In addition, the sensitivity of CmoPIP1-4 CRISPR plants is further aggravated by reduced antioxidative enzyme activity, decreased proline and sugar contents, and extensive root damage. Furthermore, expression profiles of genes such as CmoHSP70s, CmoNCED3, CmoNCED4, and others involved in metabolic activities were markedly reduced in CmoPIP1-4 CRISPR plants. Moreover, we also discovered an interaction between the drought-responsive gene CmoDCD and CmoPIP1-4, indicating their potential role in activating H2S-mediated signaling in pumpkin, which could confer drought tolerance. The findings of our study collectively demonstrate CmoPIP1-4 plays a crucial role in the regulation of H2S-mediated signaling, influencing stomatal density and aperture in pumpkin plants, and thereby enhancing their drought tolerance.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 340:122816. [PMID: 37898431 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2023.122816] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2023] [Revised: 10/04/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/30/2023]
Abstract
The induction of disruption in the electronic transport chain by thiocyanate (SCN-) leads to an excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) within rice (Oryza sativa). Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) assumes a crucial role as a gaseous signaling molecule, holding significant potential in alleviating SCN--related stress. Nevertheless, there remains a dearth of understanding regarding the intricate interplay between H2S and ROS in Oryza sativa amidst SCN- pollution. In this investigation, a hydroponics-based experiment was meticulously devised to explore how H2S-mediated modifications influence the genetic feedback network governing ROS metabolism within the subcellular organelles of Oryza sativa when exposed to varying effective concentrations (EC20: 24 mg SCN/L; EC50: 96 mg SCN/L; EC75: 300 mg SCN/L) of SCN-. The findings unveiled the enhanced capacity of Oryza sativa to uptake SCN- under H2S + SCN- treatments in comparison to SCN- treatments alone. Notably, the relative growth rate (RGR) of seedlings subjected to H2S + SCN- exhibited a superior performance when contrasted with seedlings exposed solely to SCN-. Furthermore, the application of exogenous H2S yielded a significant reduction in ROS levels within Oryza sativa tissues during SCN- exposure. To elucidate the intricacies of gene regulation governing ROS metabolism at the mRNA level, the 52 targeted genes were categorized into four distinct types, namely: initial regulatory ROS generation genes (ROS-I), direct ROS scavenging genes (ROS-II), indirect ROS scavenging genes (ROS-III), and lipid oxidation genes (ROS-IV). On the whole, exogenous H2S exhibited the capacity to activate the majority of ROS-I ∼ ROS-IV genes within both Oryza sativa tissues at the EC20 concentration of SCN-. However, genetic positive/negative feedback networks emphasized the pivotal role of ROS-II genes in governing ROS metabolism within Oryza sativa. Notably, these genes were predominantly activated within the cytoplasm, chloroplasts, mitochondria, peroxisomes, and the cell wall.

Abstract
In plants, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is mainly considered as a gaseous transmitter or signaling molecule that has long been recognized as an essential component of numerous plant cellular and physiological processes. Several subcellular compartments in plants use both enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms to generate H2S. Under normal and stress full conditions exogenous administration of H2S supports a variety of plant developmental processes, including growth and germination, senescence, defense, maturation and antioxidant machinery in plants. Due to their gaseous nature, they are efficiently disseminated to various areas of the cell to balance antioxidant pools and supply sulphur to the cells. Numerous studies have also been reported regarding H2S ability to reduce heavy metal toxicity when combined with other signaling molecules like nitric oxide (NO), abscisic acid (ABA), calcium ion (Ca2+), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), salicylic acid (SA), ethylene (ETH), jasmonic acid (JA), proline (Pro), and melatonin. The current study focuses on multiple pathways for JA and H2S production as well as their signaling functions in plant cells under varied circumstances, more specifically under heavy metal, which also covers role of H2S and Jasmonic acid during heavy metal stress and interaction of hydrogen sulfide with Jasmonic acid.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2 S) promotes plant tolerance against various environmental cues, and d-cysteine desulfhydrase (DCD) is an enzymatic source of H2 S to enhance abiotic stress resistance. However, the role of DCD-mediated H2 S production in root growth under abiotic stress remains to be further elucidated. Here, we report that DCD-mediated H2 S production alleviates osmotic stress-mediated root growth inhibition by promoting auxin homeostasis. Osmotic stress up-regulated DCD gene transcript and DCD protein levels and thus H2 S production in roots. When subjected to osmotic stress, a dcd mutant showed more severe root growth inhibition, whereas the transgenic lines DCDox overexpressing DCD exhibited less sensitivity to osmotic stress in terms of longer root compared to the wild-type. Moreover, osmotic stress inhibited root growth through repressing auxin signaling, whereas H2 S treatment significantly alleviated osmotic stress-mediated inhibition of auxin. Under osmotic stress, auxin accumulation was increased in DCDox but decreased in dcd mutant. H2 S promoted auxin biosynthesis gene expression and auxin efflux carrier PIN-FORMED 1 (PIN1) protein level under osmotic stress. Taken together, our results reveal that mannitol-induced DCD and H2 S in roots promote auxin homeostasis, contributing to alleviating the inhibition of root growth under osmotic stress.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), which is a gasotransmitter, can be biosynthesized and participates in various physiological and biochemical processes in plants. H2S also positively affects plants' adaptation to abiotic stresses. Here, we summarize the specific ways in which H2S is endogenously synthesized and metabolized in plants, along with the agents and methods used for H2S research, and outline the progress of research on the regulation of H2S on plant metabolism and morphogenesis, abiotic stress tolerance, and the series of different post-translational modifications (PTMs) in which H2S is involved, to provide a reference for future research on the mechanism of H2S action.

Abstract
The slow release of hydrogen sulfide has been shown to be beneficial to plants by protecting them from environmental stressors, increasing germination, and extending the lifetime of harvested fruits. A major challenge in this field is controlling the amount and location of release of hydrogen sulfide so that it is available for use by plants at optimal amounts. This article reports a dual method to release hydrogen sulfide near the roots of plants by controlling its release using the hydrolysis of a dithiophosphate and the degradation of poly(lactic acid) [PLA]. Di(t-butanol)dithiophosphate phenylethylamine (tBDPA) was dissolved in a solution of PLA, and the solvent was allowed to evaporate. The resulting solid was crushed in a blender and separated into microparticles with two different size distributions of 250-500 or 500-2000 μm. The microparticles were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction to measure the presence of microcrystals of tBDPA within PLA, and images obtained using scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray analysis confirmed the presence of these crystals. Microparticles of tBDPA loaded within PLA were characterized for their release of phosphorus and hydrogen sulfide, which both showed a burst release within 3 days, followed by a steady release. Radish plants grown with microparticles of PLA loaded with tBDPA had up to a 141% increase in harvest yield compared to plants grown in the presence of free tBDPA not loaded into PLA, PLA microparticles without tBDPA, and control plants grown without PLA or tBDPA. These experiments showed that loading hydrogen sulfide-releasing chemicals into PLA is a promising method to improve the effect of hydrogen sulfide on plants.
