Abstract GIBBERELLIN MYB GENE (GAMYB), UNDEVELOPED TAPETUM1 (UDT1), TDR INTERACTING PROTEIN2 (TIP2/bHLH142), TAPETUM DEGENERATION RETARDATION (TDR), and ETERNAL TAPETUM 1/DELAYED TAPETUM DEGENERATION (EAT1/DTD) are important transcription factors that play a crucial role during pollen development in rice. This study demonstrates that bHLH142 acts downstream of UDT1 and GAMYB and works as a ‘hub’ in these two pollen pathways. We show that GAMYB modulates bHLH142 expression through specific binding to the MYB motif of the bHLH142 promoter during the early stage of pollen development, while TDR acts as a transcriptional repressor of the GAMYB modulation of bHLH142 by binding to the E-box close to the MYB motif on the promoter. Altered expression of these transcription factors highlights that a tight, precise, and coordinated regulation among them is essential for normal pollen development. Most notably, we show that the regulatory pathways of GAMYB and UDT1 rely on bHLH142 in a direct and indirect manner, respectively, and function in different tissues with distinct biological roles during pollen development. This study advances our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of rice pollen development.

AbstractThe wheat transcription factor TaABF1 physically interacts with the protein kinase PKABA1 and mediates both abscisic acid (ABA)-induced and ABA-suppressed gene expression. In bombarded aleurone cells of imbibing grains, the effect of TaABF1 in down-regulating the gibberellin (GA)-induced Amy32b promoter was stronger in the presence of exogenous ABA. As these grains contained low levels of endogenous ABA, the effect of TaABF1 may also be mediated by ABA-induced activation even in the absence of exogenous ABA. Levels of TaABF1 protein decreased slightly during imbibition of afterripened grains. However, TaABF1 levels (especially in aleurone layers) were not substantially affected by exogenous ABA or GA, indicating that changes in TaABF1 protein level are not an important part of regulating its role in hormone signalling. We found that TaABF1 was phosphorylated in vivo in aleurone cells, suggesting a role for post-translational modification in regulating TaABF1 activity. Induction of Amy32b by overexpression of the transcription factor GAMyb could not be prevented by TaABF1, indicating that TaABF1 acts upstream of GAMyb transcription in the signalling pathway. Supporting this view, knockdown of TaABF1 by RNA interference resulted in increased expression from the GAMyb promoter. These results are consistent with a model in which TaABF1 is constitutively present in aleurone cells, while its ability to down-regulate GAMyb is regulated in response to ABA.

As one of the largest transcription factor families, MYB transcription factors are widely present, and they are involved in a diverse range of physiological activities in plants, such as leaf development. GAMYB genes belong to the R2R3-MYB subfamily, which includes the MYB33/65/101 gene, and these genes are studied well in seed germination and flowering, but their roles in leaf development are poorly understood. In the current study, we isolated a GAMYB transcription factor from pak choi, BcMYB101, and analyzed its characteristics and function. The sequence structure analysis indicated that BcMYB101 has a highly conserved R2R3 DNA-binding domain in the N-terminal region and three GAMYB-specific motifs (Box1, Box2, and Box3). The expression pattern of diverse tissues revealed that BcMYB101 has a higher transcript level in the petiole, leaf, root, and floral organs. Furthermore, the expression level was significantly elevated after GA (gibberellin) treatment, suggesting that the BcMYB101 response was positively regulated by GA. Subcellular localization exhibited that BcMYB101 was only present in the nuclear region, consistent with the characterization of the transcription factor. The overexpression of BcMYB101 elucidated that BcMYB101 increased leaf number and resulted in downward-curling cauline leaves. Moreover, the virus-induced BcMYB101 silencing displayed that BcMYB101 is involved in the regulation of curly leaves. Furthermore, we discovered that BcMYB101 has two trans-activation activities and one interaction protein, BcTCH4, using a trans-activation activity assay and a yeast two-hybrid assay, respectively. In this study, we firstly isolated the BcMYB101 gene and explored its function in leaf development, thereby providing a solid foundation for further research on the regulatory mechanism of leaf shape in Brassica or other species.

MicroR159 (miR159) is ancient, being present in the majority of land plants where it targets a class of regulatory genes called GAMYB or GAMYB-like via highly conserved miR159-binding sites. These GAMYB genes encode R2R3 MYB domain transcription factors that transduce the gibberellin (GA) signal in the seed aleurone and the anther tapetum. Here, GAMYB plays a conserved role in promoting the programmed cell death of these tissues, where miR159 function appears weak. By contrast, GAMYB is not involved in GA-signaling in vegetative tissues, but rather its expression is deleterious, leading to the inhibition of growth and development. Here, the major function of miR159 is to mediate strong silencing of GAMYB to enable normal growth. Highlighting this requirement of strong silencing are conserved RNA secondary structures associated with the miR159-binding site in GAMYB mRNA that promotes miR159-mediated repression. Although the miR159-GAMYB pathway in vegetative tissues has been implicated in a number of different functions, presently no conserved role for this pathway has emerged. We will review the current knowledge of the different proposed functions of miR159, and how this ancient pathway has been used as a model to help form our understanding of miRNA biology in plants.
