    Abstract Exogenous gibberellin treatment can promote early growth of grape fruit, but the underlying regulatory mechanisms are not well understood. Here, we show that VvDELLA2 directly regulates the activity of the VvCEB1 transcription factor, a key regulator in the control of cell expansion in grape fruit. Our results show that VvCEB1 binds directly to the promoters of cell expansion-related genes in grape fruit and acts as a transcriptional activator, while VvDELLA2 blocks VvCEB1 function by binding to its activating structural domain. The exogenous gibberellin treatment relieved this inhibition by promoting the degradation of VvDELLA2 protein, thus, allowing VvCEB1 to transcriptionally activate the expression of cell expansion-related genes. In conclusion, we conclude that exogenous GA

    Abstract Specific populations of plant microtubules cooperate with the plasma membrane to sense and process abiotic stress signals, such as cold stress. The current study derived from the question, to what extent this perception system is active in biotic stress signalling. The experimental system consisted of grapevine cell lines, where microtubules or actin filaments are visualised by GFP, such that their response became visible in vivo. We used the bacterial elicitors harpin (inducing cell-death related defence), or flg22 (inducing basal immunity) in combination with modulators of membrane fluidity, or microtubules. We show that DMSO, a membrane rigidifier, can cause microtubule bundling and trigger defence responses, including activation of phytoalexin transcripts. However, DMSO inhibited the gene expression in response to harpin, while promoting the gene expression in response to flg22. Treatment with DMSO also rendered microtubules more persistent to harpin. Paradoxically, Benzylalcohol (BA), a membrane fluidiser, acted in the same way as DMSO. Neither GdCl

    Abstract Signal transductions require calcium (Ca²⁺) or reactive oxygen species (ROS) signatures, which act as chemical and electrical signals in response to various biotic and abiotic stresses. Calcium as an ion or second messenger affects the membrane potential and microtubules (MTs) dynamicity, while MTs can modulate auto-propagating waves of calcium and ROS signatures in collaboration with ion channels depending on the stimulus type. Thus, in the current review, we highlight advances in research focused on the relationship between dynamic MTs and calcium and ROS signatures in short-distance transmission. The challenges of Ca²⁺-MTs-ROS crosstalk in cold sensing are addressed, which could suggest the prioritization of ROS or Ca²⁺ in signalling.

    Abstract Stress associated protein (SAP) gene family can respond to a variety of biotic and abiotic stresses, and plays an important role in the process of improving the resistance of plants. In this study, we cloned a novel gene VaSAP15 from Chinese wild Vitis amurensis and validated its function in cold stress. Our data revealed that VaSAP15 protein localized in both nucleus and cell membrane. The SAP15 gene exhibited specific tissue expression in different grape genotypes, and strongly expressed in the roots of V. amurensis accession ‘Shuangyou’ (cold-tolerant) and in the stems of V. vinifera cultivar ‘Red Globe’ (cold-sensitive), respectively. Overexpressed VaSAP15 ‘Thompson Seedless’ (V. vinifera) lines were obtained by agrobacterium-mediated method. After cold stress at 0℃, the damage degree of transgenic line leaves was significantly lower than that of wild-type (WT), transgenic lines have the lower malondialdehyde (MDA) and electrolyte leakage (EL) and the higher activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD) and catalase (CAT). Furthermore, the relative expression level of some cold-related genes including CBF1, CBF2, CBF3, COR27, RD29B and NCED1 were significantly up-regulated in transgenic lines. Besides, an interacting protein with VaSAP15, VaPDI1 (protein disulfide-isomerase), was screened out by yeast two-hybrid and verified by bimolecular fluorescence complementation assay. These results suggested that VaSAP15 may enhance grapevine cold tolerance through interacting with other proteins such as VaPDI1, which modulates signal transduction pathways and regulates the response of genes to environmental stresses in grapevine.

    Abstract Universal Stress Protein A (USPA) plays critical roles in the regulation of growth, development and response to abiotic stress in plants. To date, most research related to the role of USPA in plants has been carried out in herbaceous models such as Arabidopsis, rice and soybean. Here, we used bioinformatics approaches to identify 21 USPA genes in the genome of Vitis vinifera L. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that VvUSPAs could be divided into eight clades. Based on predicted chromosomal locations, we identified 16 pairs of syntenic, orthologous genes between A. thaliana and V. vinifera. Further promoter cis-elements analysis, together with identification of potential microRNA (miRNA) binding sites, suggested that at least some of the VvUSPAs participate in response to phytohormones and abiotic stress. To add support for this, we analyzed the developmental and stress-responsive expression patterns of the homologous USPA genes in the drought-resistant wild Vitis yeshanensis accession ‘Yanshan-1’ and the drought-sensitive Vitis riparia accession ‘He'an’. Most of the USPA genes were upregulated in different degrees in the two genotypes after drought stress and exposure to ethephon (ETH), abscisic acid (ABA) and methyl jasmonate (MeJA). Individual USPA genes showed various tissue-specific expression patterns. Heterologous expression of five selected genes (VvUSPA2, VvUSPA3, VvUSPA11, VvUSPA13 and VvUSPA16) in Escherichia coli (E. coli) enhanced resistance to drought stress. Our study provides a model for mapping gene function in response to abiotic stress and identified three candidate genes, VvUSPA3, VvUSPA11 and VvUSPA16, as regulators of drought response in V. vinifera.

    Abstract Root-knot nematodes (RKNs) are highly invasive plant parasites that establish permanent feeding sites within the roots of the host plant. Successful establishment of the feeding site is essential for the survival of RKN. The formation and development of the feeding cell, also called giant cell, involve both cell division and endoreduplication. Here, we examined giant cell development and endoreduplication in Prunus sogdiana infected with the RKN. We found that feeding sites were established 3–5 days post inoculation (dpi) and matured at 21–28 dpi. The giant cells began to form 5 dpi and continued to increase in size from 7 to 21 dpi. The large numbers of dividing nuclei were observed in giant cells from 7 to 14 dpi. However, nuclear division was rarely observed after 28 days. RT-PCR and in situ hybridization analyses revealed that PsoCCS52A was abundantly expressed at 7–21 dpi and the PsoCCS52A signal observed in giant cell nucleus at 7–14 dpi. The PsoCCS52B is highly expressed at 14 dpi, and the hybridization signal was mainly in the cytoplasm of giant cells. The PsoDEL1 expression was lowest 7–21 dip, with negligible transcript detected in the giant cells. This indicates that the PsoCCS52A plays a role in the process of cell division, while the CCS52B plays a role in the development of giant cells. The PsoDEL1 plays a negative regulatory role in megakaryocyte nuclear replication. These data suggest that an increased expression of PsoCCS52A promotes nuclear division and produces a large number of polyploid nuclei, the area of giant cells and feeding sites increase, ultimately leading to the formation of galls in Prunus sogdiana.

    Abstract The phenomenon of multi-carpel and multi-ovule exists in the grapevine cultivar ‘Xiangfei’, but the mechanism of ovule formation is seldom reported. In this study, we observed the ovule formation process by using ‘Xiangfei’ grapes. The role of the VvAG2 (VvAGAMOUS) gene in ovule formation was identified, and we explored the relationship between VvAG2, VvSEP3(VvMADS4) and VvAGL11(VvMADS5) proteins. The results showed that the ovule primordium appeared when the inflorescence length of ‘Xiangfei’ grapes were 4–5 cm long; the relative expression levels of VvAG2, VvAGL11 and VvSEP3 genes were higher during ovule formation, and the expression levels of VvAG2 gene was the highest. Transgenic tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) plants expressing VvAG2 produced higher numbers of ovules and carpels than the wild type. Moreover, yeast two-hybrid and yeast three-hybrid experiments demonstrated that VvSEP3 acts as a bridge and interacts with VvAG2 and VvAGL11 proteins, respectively. Meanwhile, a homodimer can be formed between VvSEP3 and VvSEP3, but there was no interaction between VvAG2 and VvAGL11. These findings suggest that the VvAG2 gene is involved in the formation of ovules, and VvAG2/VvSEP3 together with VvAGL11/VvSEP3 can form a tetrameric complex. In summary, our data showed that VvAG2 along with VvSEP3 and VvAGL11 jointly regulate the ovule formation of ‘Xiangfei’ grapes.
