Natural Variation at the FRD3 MATE Transporter Locus Reveals Cross-Talk between Fe Homeostasis and Zn Tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana

Abstract: Zinc (Zn) is essential for the optimal growth of plants but is toxic if present in excess, so Zn homeostasis needs to be finely tuned. Understanding Zn homeostasis mechanisms in plants will help in the development of innovative approaches for the phytoremediation of Zn-contaminated sites. In this study, Zn tolerance quantitative trait loci (QTL) were identified by analyzing differences in the Bay-0 and Shahdara accessions of Arabidopsis thaliana. Fine-scale mapping showed that a variant of the Fe homeostasis-r… Show more

“…In Arabidopsis, pcr2 lossof-function mutants accumulate Zn in roots, suggesting a role of in root-to-shoot translocation of Zn, independent of HMA2 and HMA4 (Song et al, 2010). Furthermore, it was proved that AtFRD3 is involved in loading Zn into xylem (Pineau et al, 2012). Zn can also be exported from the roots in the form of Zn complexes.…”

“…Exploring natural variation has contributed to the identification of quantitative trait loci controlling RSA development under control and abiotic stress conditions (Mouchel et al, 2004;Rosas et al, 2013;Meijón et al, 2014;Slovak et al, 2014). Root growth under potassium, iron, or phosphate starvation has been linked to allelic polymorphisms (Reymond et al, 2006;Pineau et al, 2012;Kellermeier et al, 2013), whereas salt-induced changes in RSA have partially been explained by differences in the sensitivity to ABA within Arabidopsis accessions (Julkowska et al, 2014). However, natural variation in root responses to combinations of stresses has not been studied before.…”
