| Zusammenfassung: | Copyright © 2022. Published by Elsevier Masson SAS. High salinity and drought stresses often cause plants to produce ROS, including hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and superoxide (O2-), which interfere with plant growth and affect crop yield. The transcription factors of the MYB family are involved in responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. Here, we isolated the R2R3-MYB transcription factor gene SlMYB50 and found that silencing of SlMYB50 increased resistance to PEG 6000, mannitol and salt. In addition, the resistance of transgenic tomatoes increased under high salt and drought stress. After stress treatment, the relative water content, chlorophyll content (critical for carbon fixation) and root vitality of the SlMYB50-RNAi lines were higher than those of the wild-type (WT). The opposite was true the water loss rate, relative conductivity, and MDA (as a sign of cell wall disruption). Under drought stress conditions, SlMYB50-silenced lines exhibited less H2O2 and less O2- accumulation, as well as higher CAT enzyme activity, than were exhibited by the WT. Notably, after stress treatment, the expression levels of chlorophyll-synthesis-related, flavonoid-synthesis-related, carotenoid-related, antioxidant-enzyme-related and ABA-biosynthesis-related genes were all upregulated in SlMYB50-silenced lines compared to those of WT. A dual-luciferase reporter system was used to verify that SlMYB50 could bind to the CHS1 promoter. In summary, this study identified essential roles for SlMYB50 in regulating drought and salt tolerance |
