【 摘 要 】

Plastid-nucleus retrograde signaling (PNRS) play essential roles in regulating nuclear gene expression during plant growth and development. Excessive reactive oxygen species can trigger PNRS. We previously reported that in apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) seedlings, the expression of microRNA156 (miR156) was significantly low in the adult phase, which was accompanied by high levels of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) accumulation in chloroplasts. However, it was unclear whether adult-phase-specific chloroplast H2O2 may induce PNRS and affect miR156 expression, or miR156 triggers adult phase PNRS during the ontogenesis. In this paper, we examined the relationship between miR156 levels and six PNRS components in juvenile and adult phase leaves from ‘Zisai Pearl’בRed Fuji’ hybrids. We found that PNRS generated by singlet oxygen (1O2), the photosynthetic redox state, methylerythritol cyclodiphosphate (MEcPP), SAL1-3-phosphoadenosine 5-phosphate (PAP) and WHIRLY1 were not involved. The accumulation of Mg-protoporphyrin IX (Mg-Proto IX), the expression of the synthetic genes MdGUN5 and MdGUN6, and Mg-Proto IX PNRS related nuclear genes increased with ontogenesis. These changes were negatively correlated with miR156 expression. Manipulating Mg-Proto IX synthesis with 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) or gabaculine did not affect miR156 expression in vitro shoots. In contrast, modulating miR156 expression via MdGGT1 or MdMIR156a6 transgenesis led to changes in Mg-Proto IX contents and the corresponding gene expressions. It was concluded that the Mg-Proto IX PNRS was regulated downstream of miR156 regardless of adult-phase-specific plastid H2O2 accumulation. The findings may facilitate the understanding of the mechanism of ontogenesis in higher plants.
