Innovation, conservation and repurposing of gene function in plant root cell type development

Abstract: Plant species have evolved myriads of solutions to adapt to dynamic environments, 35 including complex cell type development and regulation. To understand this diversity, we profiled tomato root cell type translatomes and chromatin accessibility. Using xylem differentiation in tomato, relative to Arabidopsis, examples of functional innovation, repurposing and conservation of transcription factors are described. Repurposing and innovation of genes are further observed within an exodermis regulatory network a… Show more

“…Maintaining focus on PCC development, we aligned Z. mays and A. thaliana trajectories using a time-warping algorithm. Consistent with recent comparative analysis of vascular development in O. sativa , A. thaliana, and Solanum lycopersicum 38 , only 206 out of 10,976 putative orthologs were significantly associated (FDR < 0.01) with PCC pseudotime in both species, indicating that the majority PCC trajectories-associated genes are unique to each lineage (97% Z. mays , 83% A. thaliana ). However, of the 206 PCC-associated orthologs, ∼50% (102/206) exhibited similar patterns of gene accessibility across pseudotime ( Fig.…”

“…Notably, MYB86, which has previously been associated with lignification during xylem formation ( Patzlaff et al, 2003 ), functions as a hub at both 3 and 5 DAGs. Gene clusters that are downstream of MYB86 are associated with xylem formation, including numerous peroxidase genes, NAC-related TF genes, and HOMEOBOX LEUCINE ZIPPER-14 ( HAT14 ; Marjamaa et al, 2009 ; Kajala et al, 2020 ). We predicted additional hubs at 5 DAGs, including LBD4 (CA02g00820) and LBD25 (CA02g30000).…”

“…It is possible that the sporadic appearance of exodermis during plant evolution was possible through rewiring regulatory networks of Casparian strips and suberin lamellae formation in endodermis or similar lignin and suberin biosynthetic pathways from other cell types. The coexistence of endodermis and exodermis in roots has complicated transcriptomic approaches, and to investigate the exodermis gene expression and GRNs in individual species, methods such as laser capture microdissection (LCM) and translating ribosome affinity purification (TRAP) have been used (Kajala et al, 2021;. The exodermis-specific gene expression patterns and GRNs are a foundation for understanding the genetic underpinnings of the cell type and enable investigating its evolutionary paths.…”

“…Recent studies are showing the importance of distinct clades of the MYB transcription factor family as conserved regulators of suberin deposition in response to osmotic stress in different cell types and in phylogenetically distant plants, linking their evolution with colonization of dry terrestrial environments by early land plants (Capote et al, 2018;Cohen, Fedyuk, Wang, Wu, & Aharoni, 2020;Gou et al, 2017;Kajala et al, 2021;Kosma et al, 2014;Lashbrooke et al, 2016;Legay et al, 2016;Shukla et al, 2021;To et al, 2020;Wei et al, 2020). Two of the possible scenarios are: (1) osmotic stress-inducible regulation of suberization diversified from pre-existing developmental pathways, (2) the regulation of suberization in response to drought was re-activated as plants colonized drier environments.…”
