Résumé: | Copyright © 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. Myo-inositol and its derivatives play vital roles in plant stress tolerance. Myo-inositol-1-phosphate synthase (MIPS) is the rate-limiting enzyme of myo-inositol biosynthesis. However, the role of apple MIPS-mediated myo-inositol biosynthesis in stress tolerance remains elusive. In this study, we found that ectopic expression of MdMIPS1 from apple increased myo-inositol content and enhanced tolerance to salt and osmotic stresses in transgenic Arabidopsis lines. In transgenic apple lines over-expressing MdMIPS1, the increased myo-inositol levels could promote accumulation of other osmoprotectants such as glucose, sucrose, galactose, and fructose, to alleviate salinity-induced osmotic stress. Also, it was shown that overexpression of MdMIPS1 enhanced salinity tolerance by improving the antioxidant system to scavenge ROS, as well as Na+ and K+ homeostasis. Taken together, our results revealed a protective role of MdMIPS1-mediated myo-inositol biosynthesis in salt tolerance by improving osmotic balance, antioxidant defense system, and ion homeostasis in apple |
