A novel microRNA IamiR-4-3p from water spinach ( Ipomoea aquatica Forsk.) increased Cd uptake and translocation in Arabidopsis thaliana
Environmental Science and Pollution Research(2022)
摘要
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in plant response to Cd stress. In our previous study, we observed significant differences in the expression levels of IamiR-4-3p between high-Cd and low-Cd cultivars of water spinach. The function of IamiR-4-3p was investigated by using wild type Arabidopsis (WT), Arabidopsis transfected with empty vector pCambia1302 (CK), and Arabidopsis transfected with IamiR-4-3p + vector pCambia1302 ( p35S::miR-4-3p ) in this study. In p35S::miR-4-3p Arabidopsis, the expression levels of GST3 and AWPM19-like were reduced by 20% and 24%. Under Cd treatment, higher root and shoot Cd concentrations were detected in the transgenic p35S :: miR-4-3p Arabidopsis. MDA and H 2 O 2 concentrations were positively correlated with the Cd concentrations in all Arabidopsis. The elevated GSH pool in p35S::miR-4-3p Arabidopsis should compensate for its restricted GST3 expression in response to Cd-induced oxidative stress. Lower F1 (cell wall) and higher F2 (organelle) and F3 (soluble fraction) Cd concentrations were observed along with the reduced ABA level in p35S::miR-4-3p Arabidopsis, which could induce a weakened apoplastic barrier and higher Cd accumulation and translocation in roots. It is suggested that IamiR-4-3p is able to reduce the expression levels of GST3 and AWPM19-like , resulting in higher Cd uptake and translocation in Arabidopsis. Graphical abstract
