Popis | Ethylene is an important phytohormone for plant adaptation to heavy metal stress. However, the effects of ethylene on radial apoplastic transport of Cd remain elusive. This study investigated the role of ethylene on apoplastic barriers development and consequences for Cd uptake in Sedum alfredii. In response to Cd, endogenous ethylene production in hyperaccumulating ecotype (HE) roots was decreased due to the down-regulated ex-pressions of ethylene biosynthesis genes, while the opposite result was observed in non-hyperaccumulating ecotype (NHE). Interestingly, the ethylene emission in HE was always higher than that in NHE, regardless of Cd concentrations. Results of exogenous application of ethylene biosynthesis precursor/inhibitor indicate that ethylene with high level would delay the formation of apoplastic barriers in HE through restraining phenylal-anine ammonia lyase activity and gene expressions related to lignin/suberin biosynthesis. Simultaneously, correlation analyses suggest that Cd-induced apoplastic barriers formation may be also regulated by ethylene signaling. By using an apoplastic bypass tracer and scanning ion-selected electrode, we observed that the delayed deposition of apoplastic barriers significantly promoted Cd influx in roots. Taken together, high endogenous ethylene in HE postponed the formation of apoplastic barriers and thus promoted the Cd accumulation in the apoplast of roots. |
