OsMADS23 phosphorylated by SAPK9 confers drought and salt tolerance by regulating ABA biosynthesis in rice.
Some of MADS-box transcription factors (TFs) have been shown to play essential roles in the adaptation of plant to abiotic stress. Still, the mechanisms that MADS-box proteins regulate plant stress response are not fully understood. Here, a stress-responsive MADS-box TF OsMADS23 from rice conferring...

Some of MADS-box transcription factors (TFs) have been shown to play essential roles in the adaptation of plant to abiotic stress. Still, the mechanisms that MADS-box proteins regulate plant stress response are not fully understood. Here, a stress-responsive MADS-box TF OsMADS23 from rice conferring the osmotic stress tolerance in plants is reported. Overexpression of OsMADS23 remarkably enhanced, but knockout of the gene greatly reduced the drought and salt tolerance in rice plants. Further, OsMADS23 was shown to promote the biosynthesis of endogenous ABA and proline by activating the transcription of target genes OsNCED2, OsNCED3, OsNCED4 and OsP5CR that are key components for ABA and proline biosynthesis, respectively. Then, the convincing evidence showed that the OsNCED2-knockout mutants had lower ABA levels and exhibited higher sensitivity to drought and oxidative stress than wild type, which is similar to osmads23 mutant. Interestingly, the SnRK2-type protein kinase SAPK9 was found to physically interact with and phosphorylate OsMADS23, and thus increase its stability and transcriptional activity. Furthermore, the activation of OsMADS23 by SAPK9-mediated phosphorylation is dependent on ABA in plants. Collectively, these findings establish a mechanism that OsMADS23 functions as a positive regulator in response to osmotic stress by regulating ABA biosynthesis, and provide a new strategy for improving drought and salt tolerance in rice. |
