Temperature Interaction

Two experiments, one with spaced plants and the other with swards, were conducted in a controlled-temperature glasshouse at Perth, Western Australia. Three strains-Phillip Island, CPI 18293 and CPI 68043H-were selected on the basis of field observations of apparent very poor winter growth in rows, and tested against Tallarook as a control. The temperature treatments were 22/17� (day/night) and 12/7�C. In the spaced plant experiment (occupying the first 48 days of growth), temperature and strain effects were highly significant, but there was no indication of a strain x temperature interaction. In the sward experiment (from days 51 to 77) temperature effects were small; and in only one strain, Phillip Island, was the decline in tops growth due to low temperature greater (P< 0.05) than for Tallarook. The experiments failed to provide support for the so-called 'winter dormancy' phenomenon. Possible explanations for the discrepancy between the present findings and the field observations are given.

Abstract Plants have to cope with various environmental stress factors which significantly impact plant physiology and secondary metabolism. Individual stresses, such as low temperature, are known to activate plant volatile compounds as a defense. However, less is known about the effect of multiple stresses on plant volatile formation. Here, the effect of dual stresses (wounding and low temperature) on volatile compounds in tea (Camellia sinensis) plants and the underlying signalling mechanisms were investigated. Indole, an insect resistance volatile, was maintained at a higher content and for a longer time under dual stresses compared with wounding alone. CsMYC2a, a jasmonate (JA)-responsive transcription factor, was the major regulator of CsTSB2, a gene encoding a tryptophan synthase β-subunit essential for indole synthesis. During the recovery phase after tea wounding, low temperature helped to maintain a higher JA level. Further study showed that CsICE2 interacted directly with CsJAZ2 to relieve inhibition of CsMYC2a, thereby promoting JA biosynthesis and downstream expression of the responsive gene CsTSB2 ultimately enhancing indole biosynthesis. These findings shed light on the role of low temperature in promoting plant damage responses and advance knowledge of the molecular mechanisms by which multiple stresses coordinately regulate plant responses to the biotic and abiotic environment.
