Enhanced sustainable green revolution yield via nitrogen-responsive chromatin modulation in rice

Abstract: Because environmentally degrading inorganic fertilizer use underlies current worldwide cereal yields, future agricultural sustainability demands enhanced nitrogen use efficiency. We found that genome-wide promotion of histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) enables nitrogen-induced stimulation of rice tillering: APETALA2-domain transcription factor NGR5 (NITROGEN-MEDIATED TILLER GROWTH RESPONSE 5) facilitates nitrogen-dependent recruitment of polycomb repressive complex 2 to repress branching-inhibitory… Show more

“…This observation suggests the superiority of the Pokkali allele in enhancing N uptake under N stress. A recent study discovered the role of GID1 and nitrogen-mediated tiller growth response 5 (NGR5 (LOC_Os5g32270)) in gibberellin signaling by nitrogen fertilization to enhance tillering in rice [49]. NGR5, an APETALA2-domain transcription factor responsible for recruiting polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) to regulate the transcription of tillering repressing genes, is dependent on nitrogen application.…”

“…In general, the effect of the level of N supply on plant height can be predicted, whereas its effect on other architecture components, such as tiller number, filled grains per panicle, 1000-grain weight, and grain yield, is complicated. Sufficient N supply stimulates shoot elongation and ensures that the plant will reach the expected height in both rice and wheat ( Wu et al , 2020 ), while excess N prevents secondary cell wall formation, resulting in poor lodging resistance ( Wu et al , 2017 ; Zhang et al , 2017 ). The tiller number is affected by the N supply level and growth stage.…”

“…Our work also provides new insights into the crosstalk of SLs with GAs, mutants of which in various cereals led to the green revolution [67]. GAs and SLs have been shown to regulate a largely overlapping set of genes in Arabidopsis [68].…”

“…Most of the biosynthetic genes of SLs are repressed by GAs [69]. Most recently, D14 has been proven to be positively controlled by GAs via histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation [67]. By and large, these studies clarified that GAs work upstream of SLs by regulating the biosynthesis and signal transduction of the latter.…”
