Sulfate availability affects ABA levels and germination response to ABA and salt stress in Arabidopsis thaliana

Abstract: SUMMARYSulfur-containing compounds play a critical role in the response of plants to abiotic stress factors including drought. The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) is the key regulator of responses to drought and high-salt stress. However, our knowledge about interaction of S-metabolism and ABA biosynthesis is scarce. Here we report that sulfate supply affects synthesis and steady-state levels of ABA in Arabidopsis wild-type seedlings. By using different mutants of the sulfate uptake and reduction pathway, we … Show more

“…Expression of these quinoa genes is upregulated specifically in either shoot ( AUR62011984 and AUR62021522 ) or root ( AUR62016440 ) tissues. Sulfate is an important component of plant abiotic stress tolerance and may help mediate salt stress tolerance via abscisic acid regulation of leaf stomatal conductance (Ernst et al, 2010) or by promoting synthesis of glutathione, which plays a role in cellular redox balance (Cao et al, 2014). Upregulation of sulfate transporters in the root may lead to increased sulfate uptake while increased expression in the shoot may result in increased transport of sulfate to specific aerial tissues.…”

“…It is possible that, similarly to ethylene, LSUs function upstream of ABA. This appears unlikely given that S limitation negatively impacts ethylene biosynthesis due to reduced methionine availability (Bürstenbinder et al , 2007) and also leads to drastically reduced ABA levels (Cao et al , 2014). We therefore hypothesize that LSU proteins may participate in an alternative mechanism to trigger stomatal closure in some stress conditions.…”

“…The enhanced sulfide levels will activate endogenous in vivo SERAT activity without affecting extractable SERAT amount due to formation of the cysteine synthase complex [44, 59]. Besides the beneficial impact of enhanced cysteine concentration in drought-stressed roots for ABA production [4], methionine synthesis, translation and consequently growth (reviewed in [15, 60]), roots were able to ameliorate their glutathione redox state by increasing total glutathione [61]. Significant transcriptional induction of the GSH1 gene in roots likely contributed to the increase of glutathione in roots.…”

“…Abscisic acid (ABA) plays a key role in root-to-shoot signaling and in the partial or complete stomatal closure to reduce transpiration [3]. Recently, sulfate has been shown to promote ABA synthesis [4] and was found to be transported earlier than ABA from the root to the shoot upon drought stress [5]. In addition to stomata closure, drought-induced ABA triggers many physiological responses like glycinebetaine production and root growth of maize plants [6].…”
