| Résumé: | Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved. Boron (B) is an essential micronutrient for higher plants, and its deficiency causes a change in the citrate concentration in leaves of young navel orange plants. Although citrate has been implicated in the regulation of gene expression for many transcripts, it is unclear whether citrate can affect metabolic profiling under B deficiency and if so, how many metabolites are affected. In this study, GC-TOF-MS-based untargeted metabolite profiling was used to identify the physiological effects of exogenous citrate on recovery of metabolites in B-deficient orange plants. There were 31 increased and 24 decreased metabolites in the boron-deficient (BD) group leaves relative to those of the boron-adequate (BA) group. Boron deficiency-induced changes in many metabolites were restored to the level of BA (control) group leaves or showed a recovery tendency at 1 week after citrate supply (foliar application of citrate, BDFC), including 11 organic acids, 9 sugars and polyols, 10 amino acids, and 4 other compounds. To compare with the metabolic recovery effects of exogenous citrate on B deficiency, exogenous application of B (borate) was also performed under same conditions (BDFB), and similar effects on the regulation of metabolic homeostasis under B deficiency were observed. Both the results of principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) showed that BA, BDFC, and BDFB were relatively similar and clustered close to each other. There are different responsive and regulatory mechanisms to the additions of exogenous citrate in navel orange leaves under B adequate and deficient conditions. Based on these results, we suggest that citrate is an important component of the B deficiency stress response, and exogenous application of citrate generally restores the leaf metabolic profiles of navel orange plants under boron deficiency, which might play a positive role in this stress tolerance |
