| Résumé: | Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved. Because of a high sensitivity to high temperature, both the yield and quality of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) are severely restricted by heat stress. The Bcl-2-associated athanogene (BAG) proteins, a family of multi-functional co-chaperones, are involved in plant growth, development, and stress tolerance. We have previously demonstrated that BAG9 positively regulates thermotolerance in tomato. However, the BAG9-mediated mechanism of thermotolerance in tomato has remained elusive. In the present study, we report that BAG9 interacts with heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) in vitro and in vivo. Silencing HSP70 decreased thermotolerance of tomato plants, as reflected by the phenotype, relative electrolyte leakage and malondialdehyde. Furthermore, the photosystem activities, activities of antioxidant enzymes and expression of key genes encoding antioxidant enzymes were reduced in HSP70-silenced plants under heat stress. Additionally, silencing HSP70 decreased thermotolerance of overexpressing BAG9 plants, which was related to decreased photosynthetic rate, increased damage to photosystem I and photosystem II, decreased activity of antioxidant enzymes, and decreased expression of key genes encoding antioxidant enzymes. Taken together, the present study identified that HSP70 is involved in BAG9-mediated thermotolerance by protecting the photosystem stability and improving the efficiency of the antioxidant system in tomato. This knowledge can be helpful to breed improved crop cultivars that are better equipped with thermotolerance |
