Abstract
High temperature can induce a substantial adverse effect on plant photosynthesis. This study addressed the impact of moderately high temperature (35 °C) on photosynthetic efficiency and thylakoid membrane organization in Pisum sativum. The Chl a fluorescence curves showed a significant change, indicating a reduction in photosynthetic efficiency when pea plants were exposed to moderate high-temperature stress. The pulse-amplitude modulation measurements showed decreased non-photochemical quenching while the non-regulated energy dissipation increased in treated compared to control and recovery plants. Both parameters indicated that the photosystem (PS)II was prone to temperature stress. The PSI donor side limitation increased in treated and recovery plants compared to control, suggesting the donor side of PSI is hampered in moderate-high temperature. Further, the PSI acceptor side increased in recovery plants compared to control, suggesting that the cyclic electron transport is repressed after temperature treatment but revert back to normal in recovery conditions. Also, the content of photoprotective carotenoid pigments like lutein and xanthophylls increased in temperature-treated leaves. These results indicate the alteration of macro-organization of thylakoid membranes under moderately elevated temperature, whereas supercomplexes restored to the control levels under recovery conditions. Further, the light harvesting complex (LHC)II trimers, and monomers were significantly decreased in temperature-treated plants. Furthermore, the amount of PSII reaction center proteins D1, D2, PsbO, and Cyt b6 was reduced under moderate temperature, whereas the content of LHC proteins of PSI was stable. These observations suggest that moderately high temperature can alter supercomplexes, which leads to change in the pigment-protein organization.

[PMID: 35741996 PMCID: PMC9222375 DOI: 10.3390/foods11121798] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2022] [Revised: 06/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Nostoc flagelliforme is a kind of terrestrial edible cyanobacteria with important ecological and economic value which has developed special mechanisms to adapt to drought conditions. However, the specific mechanism of lipidome changes in drought tolerance of N. flagelliforme has not been well understood. In this study, the ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry were employed to analyze the lipidome changes of N. flagelliforme under dehydration. A total of 853 lipid molecules were identified, of which 171 were significantly different from that of the control group. The digalactosyldiacylglycerol/monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG/MGDG) ratio was increased. The amount of wax ester (WE) was sharply decreased during drought stress, while Co (Q10) was accumulated. The levels of odd chain fatty acids (OCFAs) were increased under dehydration, positively responding to drought stress according to the energy metabolism state. In conclusion, the lipidomic data corroborated that oxidation, degradation, and biosynthesis of membrane lipids took place during lipid metabolism, which can respond to drought stress through the transformation of energy and substances. Besides, we constructed a lipid metabolic model demonstrating the regulatory mechanism of drought stress in N. flagelliforme. The present study provides insight into the defense strategies of cyanobacteria in lipid metabolic pathways.

Photosynthetic Light Harvesting and Thylakoid Organization in a CRISPR/Cas9 Arabidopsis Thaliana LHCB1 Knockout Mutant. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2022; 13:833032.

Abstract
Light absorbed by chlorophylls of Photosystems II and I drives oxygenic photosynthesis. Light-harvesting complexes increase the absorption cross-section of these photosystems. Furthermore, these complexes play a central role in photoprotection by dissipating the excess of absorbed light energy in an inducible and regulated fashion. In higher plants, the main light-harvesting complex is trimeric LHCII. In this work, we used CRISPR/Cas9 to knockout the five genes encoding LHCB1, which is the major component of LHCII. In absence of LHCB1, the accumulation of the other LHCII isoforms was only slightly increased, thereby resulting in chlorophyll loss, leading to a pale green phenotype and growth delay. The Photosystem II absorption cross-section was smaller, while the Photosystem I absorption cross-section was unaffected. This altered the chlorophyll repartition between the two photosystems, favoring Photosystem I excitation. The equilibrium of the photosynthetic electron transport was partially maintained by lower Photosystem I over Photosystem II reaction center ratio and by the dephosphorylation of LHCII and Photosystem II. Loss of LHCB1 altered the thylakoid structure, with less membrane layers per grana stack and reduced grana width. Stable LHCB1 knockout lines allow characterizing the role of this protein in light harvesting and acclimation and pave the way for future in vivo mutational analyses of LHCII.

Meta-Analysis as a Tool to Identify Candidate Genes Involved in the Fagus sylvatica L. Abiotic Stress Response. FORESTS 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/f13020159] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
In this study, we aimed to evaluate whether candidate genes for abiotic stresses in Fagus sylvatica L. are also candidate genes for herbaceous plants, with the purpose of better defining the abiotic stress response model of F. sylvatica. Therefore, a meta-analysis was performed on published papers related to abiotic stress. Firstly, we carried out a systematic review regarding the activity of 24 candidate genes selected for F. sylvatica under abiotic stress reported in 503 articles. After choosing the inclusion criteria, 73 articles out of 503, regarding 12 candidate genes, were included in this analysis. We performed an exploratory meta-analysis based on the random-effect model and the combined effect-size approach (Cohen’s d). The results obtained through Forest and Funnel plots indicate that the candidate genes for F. sylvatica are considered to be candidate genes in other herbaceous species. These results allowed us to set up models of plants’ response to abiotic stresses implementing the stress models in forest species. The results of this study will serve to bridge knowledge gaps regarding the pathways of response to abiotic stresses in trees based on the meta-analysis. The study approach used could be extended to observe larger gene databases and different species.
