Cadmium stress suppresses the tillering of perennial ryegrass and is associated with the transcriptional regulation of genes controlling axillary bud outgrowth.

Abstract:

:Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.), a grass species with superior tillering capacity, plays a potential role in the phytoremediation of cadmium (Cd)-contaminated soils. Tiller production is inhibited in response to serious Cd stress. However, the regulatory mechanism of Cd stress-induced inhibition of tiller development is not well documented. To address this issue, we investigated the phenotype, the expression levels of genes involved in axillary bud initiation and bud outgrowth, and endogenous hormone biosynthesis and signaling pathways in seedlings of perennial ryegrass under Cd stress. The results showed that the number of tillers and axillary buds in the Cd-treated seedlings decreased by 67% and 21%, respectively. The suppression of tiller production in the Cd-treated seedlings was more closely associated with the inhibition of axillary bud outgrowth than with bud initiation. Cd stress upregulated the expression level of genes related to axillary bud dormancy and downregulated bud activity genes. Additionally, genes involved in strigolactone biosynthesis and signaling, auxin transport and signaling, and cytokinin degradation were upregulated in Cd-treated seedlings, and cytokinin biosynthesis gene expression were decreased by Cd stress. The content of zeatin in the Cd-treated pants was significantly reduced by 69~85% compared to the control plants. The content of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) remains constant under Cd stress. Overall, Cd stress induced axillary bud dormancy and subsequently inhibited axillary bud outgrowth. The decrease of zeatin content and upregulation of genes involved in strigolactone signaling and bud dormancy might be responsible for the inhibition of axillary bud outgrowth.
