UV-B Inhibits Leaf Growth through Changes in Growth Regulating Factors and Gibberellin Levels

Abstract: Ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation affects leaf growth in a wide range of species. In this work, we demonstrate that UV-B levels present in solar radiation inhibit maize (Zea mays) leaf growth without causing any other visible stress symptoms, including the accumulation of DNA damage. We conducted kinematic analyses of cell division and expansion to understand the impact of UV-B radiation on these cellular processes. Our results demonstrate that the decrease in leaf growth in UV-B-irradiated leaves is a consequenc… Show more

“…Therefore, we infer that the levels of GA 3 and IAA in the shoot tips inhibit the growth of the new shoot to a certain extent, and thus regulate tree potential. Studies in maize indicate that the inhibitory effect of UVBs on growth is mediated by GRF, some of which might be regulated by miR396, thereby modifying GA levels in the leaf growth zone [29,30,56]. To further verify the above hypothesis, we tested the expression of miR396.…”

“…There is much evidence indicating the role of GRFs in various biological processes through interacting with different clients, such as hormone pathways, stomatal behavior, reactive oxygen species balance, and ion transport [61][62][63][64][65]. In Arabidopsis and maize, UVB radiation inhibits leaf growth by decreasing the expression of GRFs [29,30,56]. This ultimately leads to a reduced expression of GA biosynthetic genes and increased levels of catabolic transcripts [26,29,30,56].…”
