“…A variety of abiotic stresses are known to cause the accumulation of SUMO conjugates, including oxidative stress, salt, drought, and temperature stresses [1,20,23]. Despite the well characterization of the SUMOylationdependent abiotic stress responses in Arabidopsis, there is growing evidence that this link is conserved in many crop species such as rice, maize or soybean [41][42][43][44]. For example, the levels of SUMO conjugates increase in response to abiotic stress such as cold, high salinity or increased ABA in rice [44], and in response to heat and oxidative stress in maize [43].…”

“…For example, the levels of SUMO conjugates increase in response to abiotic stress such as cold, high salinity or increased ABA in rice [44], and in response to heat and oxidative stress in maize [43]. Moreover, the levels of SUMO conjugates also increase in the soybean plants that are exposed to various abiotic stresses including high salinity, heat or increased ABA [41,42]. Our results showed that SUMO conjugates on protein level increased initially and then decreased, when seedlings subjected to salt stresses.…”

“…Previous studies in Arabidopsis and the crop species indicated that protein SUMOylation plays a key role during plant developmental process or in response to various abiotic stresses [1,9,[41][42][43][44]. However, no available information of SUMOylation in peanut has been reported, especially, SUMOylation variation with the pod development.…”

Background: Posttranslational modification of proteins by small ubiquitin like modifier (SUMO) proteins play an important role during the developmental process and in response to abiotic stresses in plants. However, little is known about SUMOylation in peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.), one of the world's major food legume crops. In this study, we characterized the SUMOylation system from the diploid progenitor genomes of peanut, Arachis duranensis (AA) and Arachis ipaensis (BB). Results: Genome-wide analysis revealed the presence of 40 SUMO system genes in A. duranensis and A. ipaensis. Our results showed that peanut also encodes a novel class II isotype of the SCE1, which was previously reported to be uniquely present in cereals. RNA-seq data showed that the core components of the SUMOylation cascade SUMO1/2 and SCE1 genes exhibited pod-specific expression patterns, implying coordinated regulation during pod development. Furthermore, both transcripts and conjugate profiles revealed that SUMOylation has significant roles during the pod development. Moreover, dynamic changes in the SUMO conjugates were observed in response to abiotic stresses. Conclusions: The identification and organization of peanut SUMO system revealed SUMOylation has important roles during stress defense and pod development. The present study will serve as a resource for providing new strategies to enhance agronomic yield and reveal the mechanism of peanut pod development.

“…Despite the fact that the characterization of SUMOylation-dependent abiotic stress responses has been studied mostly in Arabidopsis, there is growing evidence that this link is conserved in many crop species such as rice, maize or soybean. The expression of the SUMOylation machinery components in those species is also developmentally controlled (Augustine et al, 2016;Chaikam and Karlson, 2010;Li et al, 2017;Reed et al, 2010). Furthermore, conjugate levels increase in response to abiotic stress such as cold, high salinity or increased ABA in rice (Chaikam and Karlson, 2010), and in response to heat stress in poplar (Reed et al, 2010).…”

Post-translational modification by SUMO is an essential process that has a major role in the regulation of plant development and stress responses. Such diverse biological functions are accompanied by functional diversification among the SUMO conjugation machinery components and regulatory mechanisms that has just started to be identified in plants. In this review, we focus on the current knowledge of the SUMO conjugation system in plants in terms of components, substrate specificity, cognate interactions, enzyme activity, and subcellular localization. In addition, we analyze existing data on the role of SUMOylation in plant drought tolerance in model plants and crop species, paying attention to the genetic approaches used to stimulate or inhibit endogenous SUMO conjugation. The role in drought tolerance of potential SUMO targets identified in proteomic analyses is also discussed. Overall, the complexity of SUMOylation and the multiple genetic and environmental factors that are integrated to confer drought tolerance highlight the need for significant efforts to understand the interplay between SUMO and drought.

Aim of this work was to investigate effects of toxic levels of Cu, Zn and Fe treatments on small ubiquitinlike modifier (SUMO) machinery of Arabidopsis thaliana. SUMO is a 100-115 amino acid posttranslational modifier that can regulate stability, activity or sub-cellular localization of target proteins. A. thaliana plants were treated with 50 µM Cu, 700 µM Zn and 400 µM Fe for 7 d and then expressions of genes related to SUMOylation and deSUMOylation of target proteins were measured with qRT-PCR. Only Cu treatment was able to induce genes related to SUMOylation (SUM3, SAE2, SIZ1) of target proteins, while all of the three metals used in this study was effective in inducing a deSUMOylation related gene. Results of this study indicate that deSUMOylation of proteins might be a part of plant response to metal toxicity.
