HvDep1 Is a Positive Regulator of Culm Elongation and Grain Size in Barley and Impacts Yield in an Environment-Dependent Manner

Abstract: Heterotrimeric G proteins are intracellular membrane-attached signal transducers involved in various cellular processes in both plants and animals. They consist of three subunits denoted as α, β and γ. The γ-subunits of the so-called AGG3 type, which comprise a transmembrane domain, are exclusively found in plants. In model species, these proteins have been shown to participate in the control of plant height, branching and seed size and could therefore impact the harvestable yield of various crop plants.

“…The barley ari.e‐GP semi‐dwarf locus was widely used in breeding because of desirable effects, including early flowering, salt tolerance, sturdy culms, and shorter awns. This locus was recently shown to correspond to the barley ortholog of the rice Dense and erect panicle1 ( Ari‐e / HvDEP1 ) gene encoding a γ subunit of heterotrimeric G proteins: phenotypic characterization showed pleiotropic effects on plant architecture similar to those known in rice (Wendt et al ). Heterotrimeric G proteins consist of three α, β and γ subunits, with the latter (also called AGG3 type) being present only in plants.…”

“…In rice, a model grass plant, several major quantitative trait loci related to grain size, such as GW2, qSW5, GS5, OsSPL16, and An-1, have been identified (Song et al, 2007;Shomura et al, 2008;Li et al, 2011;Wang et al, 2012;Luo et al, 2013). However, little is known about the genetic basis of grain size in Triticeae species, including economically important crops such as wheat, barley, and rye (Secale cereale), except for TaGW2-A1, which is a rice GW2 ortholog in wheat (Simmonds et al, 2016), and HvDEP1 in barley, an ortholog of rice Dense and Erect Panicle 1 (Wendt et al, 2016).…”

“…Potential partners linking meristem maintenance and stem elongation, especially in response to environmental cues, are heterotrimeric G‐proteins. For instance, a major dwarfing locus in rice, DENSE PANICLE1 (DEP1) and barley ( HvDEP1 ) encodes a Gγ subunit (Huang et al ; Wendt et al ; Xu et al ) while defective alleles in genes encoding the Gα subunit in rice (‘ daikoku ’ dwarf1 , Ashikari et al ; Fujisawa et al ), barley ( brachytic1 , Ito et al ; Braumann et al ), maize ( compact plant2 , ct2 , Bommert et al ) and Arabidopsis ( gpa1 , Ullah et al ) confer compact shoots due to reduced axial proliferation. In rice, DWARF1 interacts with GA and BR signaling to control height (Ashikari et al ; Oki et al ).…”
