Gain-of-Function Mutants of the Cytokinin Receptors AHK2 and AHK3 Regulate Plant Organ Size, Flowering Time and Plant Longevity

Abstract: The phytohormone cytokinin is a regulator of numerous processes in plants. In Arabidopsis (), the cytokinin signal is perceived by three membrane-located receptors named ARABIDOPSIS HISTIDINE KINASE2 (AHK2), AHK3, and AHK4/CRE1. How the signal is transmitted across the membrane is an entirely unknown process. The three receptors have been shown to operate mostly in a redundant fashion, and very few specific roles have been attributed to single receptors. Using a forward genetic approach, we isolated constituti… Show more

“…The phytochromes are major mediators of red and far-red light responses that have vital roles in plant growth and reproduction 42 . The cytokinin and ethylene receptors control many key aspects of plant physiology and development, including acclimation to abiotic stress, shoot and root vascular development, flowering time, and longevity 43,44 .…”

“…This gene codes for a histidine kinase 2 that is expressed in several cowpea tissues, including root, seed, pod and leaf (https://legumeinfo.org). The Arabidopsis ortholog AHK2 ( AT5G35750.1 ) is a cytokinin receptor that has been shown to regulate, among other things, plant organ size (Riefler et al ., ; Bartrina et al ., ). Vigun08 g217000 is thus a candidate gene for further investigation.…”

“…Estos mutantes (rock2 y rock3) presentan floración temprana; menor desarrollo radicular al elongar menos la raíz principal e inhibirse la formación de raíces laterales; mayor tamaño de los órganos (hojas, órganos florales, tallo, etc.) asociado a una mayor proliferación celular; retraso en la senescencia de las hojas; y una fase reproductiva de mayor duración, que permite la producción de más frutos, con lo cual el rendimiento en semillas de la planta se incrementa (Bartrina et al, 2017). Los autores de este trabajo sugieren que las CKs podrían impedir el GPA manteniendo la división celular en el SAM: en condiciones normales, se requeriría una caída en la actividad de las CKs para que se detenga la actividad meristemática durante el GPA; sin embargo, en los mutantes rock2 y rock3, donde está activada de forma constitutiva la señalización de CKs, el GPA se retrasa.…”

No obstante, muchos aspectos de esta hipótesis no están demostrados y siguen sin conocerse los mecanismos moleculares que estarían mediando esta respuesta (Bartrina et al, 2017).…”
