Abstract(s):

1)

Plants are exposed to an ever-changing environment to which they have to adjust accordingly. Their response is tightly regulated by complex signaling pathways that all start with stimulus perception. Here, we give an overview of the latest developments in the perception of various abiotic stresses, including drought, salinity, flooding, and temperature stress. We discuss whether proposed perception mechanisms are true sensors, which is well established for some abiotic factors but not yet fully elucidated for others. In addition, we review the downstream cellular responses, many of which are shared by various stresses but result in stress-specific physiological and developmental output. New sensing mechanisms have been identified, including heat sensing by the photoreceptor phytochrome B, salt sensing by glycosylinositol phosphorylceramide sphingolipids, and drought sensing by the specific calcium influx channel OSCA1. The simultaneous occurrence of multiple stress conditions shows characteristic downstream signaling signatures that were previously considered general signaling responses. The integration of sensing of multiple stress conditions and subsequent signaling responses is a promising venue for future research to improve the understanding of plant abiotic stress perception.

  

2)

Salt stress severely and rapidly reduces plant growth prior to shoot ion accumulation. The genetic components of this early response to salt stress are largely unknown. Using high-throughput non-destructive phenotyping with RGB and chlorophyll fluorescence imaging, the early salt stress responses of 191 Arabidopsis accessions were screened within one hour after salt treatment and up to seven consecutive days, capturing traits related to rosette growth, shape, colour and photosynthetic activity. Multivariate analysis and machine learning models identified that photosynthetic activity in the light-adapted state (Fv´/Fm´) is a major determinant of plant performance during the early responses to salt stress, while dark-adapted maximum quantum yield (QY max) contributed to plant performance at a later stage. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) identified over one thousand associations specific to salt stress across 29 unique traits measured through time yielding a total of 438 traits. Two loci associated with QY max and Fv´/Fm´ were validated using T-DNA ion lines, where an unknown protein kinase was identified that seems to affect Fv´/Fm´ under salt stress, thereby reducing plant growth and performance under salinity. Our work demonstrates how the combination of high-throughput phenotyping, multivariate analysis and GWAS can lead to new insights in studying temporal stress responses, identifying associations among different traits, and identifying new genetic components of salinity tolerance.

高通量植物表型平台建设注意事项

育种,是在给定的环境条件下,选择各种表型指标(产量、品质、抗性)最优的基因型材料的过程(AI育种,从这里起步)。育种工作中大约70%的工作量来自表型观察测量和筛选,是最耗人力物力的过程。

作物生理表型测量基础原理

生理表型测量的核心在于“早、快”,要在肉眼可见之前就能测量并预判出变化趋势,才是这个技术的核心价值。叶绿素荧光成像,恰好满足了这个要求。
