Plant defence responses to adverse environmental conditions include different stress signalling, allowing plant acclimation and survival. Among these responses one of the most common, immediate, and effective is the modulation of the stomatal aperture, which integrates different transduction pathways involving hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), calcium (Ca2+), nitric oxide (NO), phytohormones and other signalling components. The Arabidopsis thaliana copper amine oxidases β (AtCuAOβ) encodes an apoplastic CuAO expressed in guard cells and root protoxylem tissues which oxidizes polyamines to aminoaldehydes with the production of H2O2 and ammonia. Here, its role in stomatal closure, signalled by the wound-associated phytohormone methyl-jasmonate (MeJA) was explored by pharmacological and genetic approaches. Obtained data show that AtCuAOβ tissue-specific expression is induced by MeJA, especially in stomata guard cells. Interestingly, two Atcuaoβ T-DNA insertional mutants are unresponsive to this hormone, showing a compromised MeJA-mediated stomatal closure compared to the wild-type (WT) plants. Coherently, Atcuaoβ mutants also show compromised H2O2-production in guard cells upon MeJA treatment. Furthermore, the H2O2 scavenger N,N1-dimethylthiourea (DMTU) and the CuAO-specific inhibitor 2-bromoethylamine (2-BrEtA) both reversed the MeJA-induced stomatal closure and the H2O2 production in WT plants. Our data suggest that AtCuAOβ is involved in the H2O2 production implicated in MeJA-induced stomatal closure.

Plant copper amine oxidases (CuAOs) are involved in wound healing, defense against pathogens, methyl-jasmonate-induced protoxylem differentiation, and abscisic acid (ABA)-induced stomatal closure. In the present study, we investigated the role of the Arabidopsis thaliana CuAOδ (AtCuAOδ; At4g12290) in the ABA-mediated stomatal closure by genetic and pharmacological approaches. Obtained data show that AtCuAOδ is up-regulated by ABA and that two Atcuaoδ T-DNA insertional mutants are less responsive to this hormone, showing reduced ABA-mediated stomatal closure and H2O2 accumulation in guard cells as compared to the wild-type (WT) plants. Furthermore, CuAO inhibitors, as well as the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) scavenger N,N1-dimethylthiourea, reversed most of the ABA-induced stomatal closure in WT plants. Consistently, AtCuAOδ over-expressing transgenic plants display a constitutively increased stomatal closure and increased H2O2 production compared to WT plants. Our data suggest that AtCuAOδ is involved in the H2O2 production related to ABA-induced stomatal closure.

Hydrogen peroxide is an important intermediate in darkness-induced stomatal closure. In the present work, we provide evidence that copper amine oxidase (CuAO) was involved in H2O2 production in darkness-induced stomatal closure in Vicia faba L. Darkness activated CuAO in intercellular washing fluid from leaves. Aminoguanidine (AG) and 2-bromoethylamine (BEA), which were both irreversible inhibitors of CuAO, significantly suppressed darkness-induced stomatal closure and H2O2 generation. The effects of AG and BEA were reversed only by H2O2 but not by other products of CuAO. These results indicate that CuAO participates in darkness-induced stomatal closure through its reaction product, H2O2. Furthermore, darkness-induced nitric oxide (NO) production and cytosolic alkalinisation were obviously inhibited by AG and BEA, and only H2O2, among the products of CuAO, could reverse the effects, implying that the CuAO-catalysed product H2O2 is required for NO production and cytosolic alkalinisation to a large extent in darkness-induced stomatal closure. In addition, butyric acid blocked but methylamine enhanced the ability of H2O2 to reverse the effect of BEA on NO production, suggesting that cytosolic alkalinisation is involved in CuAO-mediated NO generation in darkness-induced stomatal closure.

The role of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and its relationship with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in brassinosteroid-induced stomatal closure in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. were investigated. In the present study, 2,4-epibrassinolide (EBR, a bioactive BR) induced stomatal closure in the wild type, the effects were inhibited by H2S scavenger and synthesis inhibitors, and H2O2 scavengers and synthesis inhibitor. However, EBR failed to close the stomata of mutants Atl-cdes, Atd-cdes, AtrbohF and AtrbohD/F. Additionally, EBR induced increase of L-/D-cysteine desulfhydrase (L-/D-CDes) activity, H2S production, and H2O2 production in the wild type, and the effects were inhibited by H2S scavenger and synthesis inhibitors, and H2O2 scavengers and synthesis inhibitor respectively. Furthermore, EBR increased H2O2 levels in the guard cells of AtrbohD mutant, but couldn’t raise H2O2 levels in the guard cells of AtrbohF and AtrbohD/F mutants. Next, scavengers and synthesis inhibitor of H2O2 could significantly inhibit EBR-induced rise of L-/D-CDes activity and H2S production in the wild type, but H2S scavenger and synthesis inhibitors failed to repress EBR-induced H2O2 production. EBR could increase H2O2 levels in the guard cells of Atl-cdes and Atd-cdes mutants, but EBR failed to induce increase of L-/D-CDes activity and H2S production in AtrbohF and AtrbohD/F mutants. Therefore, we conclude that H2S and H2O2 are involved in the signal transduction pathway of EBR-induced stomatal closure. Altogether, our data suggested that EBR induces AtrbohF-dependent H2O2 production and subsequent AtL-CDes-/AtD-CDes-catalysed H2S production, and finally closes stomata in A. thaliana.

Changes in osmotic pressure can induce stomatal closure to reduce transpirational water loss from plants. In the present work, we investigated the mechanism underlying the perception and transduction of extracellular changes in osmotic pressure in Vicia faba L. guard cells. Using an epidermal strip bioassay and laser-scanning confocal microscopy, we provide evidence that hyperosmotic stress treatment led to stomatal closure and the rapid promotion of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production in V. faba guard cells. The effects were largely reduced by H2O2 scavengers ASA, CAT, NADPH oxidase inhibitor DPI and cell wall peroxidase inhibitor SHAM. These results indicate that hyperosmotic stress induces stomatal closure by promoting H2O2 production. Cytochalasin B (CB), latrunculin B (Lat B) and jasplakinolide (JK) inhibited stomatal closure induced by hyperosmotic stress but didn’t prevent the increase of endogenous H2O2 levels, suggesting that microfilaments reorganisation participates in stomatal closure induced by hyperosmotic stress, and may act downstream of H2O2 signalling processes. In addition, we observed splitting of big vacuoles into many small vacuoles in response to hyperosmotic stress and H2O2 treatment, and CB inhibited these changes of vacuoles; stomatal closure was also inhibited. Taken together these results indicate that the stomatal closure in response to hyperosmotic stress may initiate H2O2 generation, and that reorganisation of microfilaments and the changing of vacuoles occurs downstream of H2O2 signalling processes.

Previous studies have showed that UV-B can stimulate closure as well as opening of stomata. However, the mechanism of this complex effect of UV-B is not clear. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the role and the interrelationship of H2O2 and NO in UV-B-induced stomatal closure in broad bean (Vicia faba L.). By epidermal strip bioassay and laser-scanning confocal microscopy, we observed that UV-B-induced stomatal closure could be largely prevented not only by NO scavenger c-PTIO or NO synthase (NOS) inhibitor l-NAME, but also by ascorbic acid (ASC, an important reducing substrate for H2O2 removal) or catalase (CAT, the H2O2 scavenger), and that UV-B-induced NO and H2O2 production in guard cells preceded UV-B-induced stomatal closure. These results indicate that UV-B radiation induces stomatal closure by promoting NO and H2O2 production. In addition, c-PTIO, l-NAME, ASC and CAT treatments could effectively inhibit not only UV-B-induced NO production, but also UV-B-induced H2O2 production. Exogenous H2O2-induced NO production and stomatal closure were partly abolished by c-PTIO and l-NAME. Similarly, exogenous NO donor sodium nitroprusside-induced H2O2 production and stomatal closure were also partly reversed by ASC and CAT. These results show a causal and interdependent relationship between NO and H2O2 during UV-B-regulated stomatal movement. Furthermore, the l-NAME data also indicate that the NO in guard cells of Vicia faba is probably produced by a NOS-like enzyme.

Abstract Background and Aims Single-stranded DNA oligodeoxynucleotides (ssODNs) have been shown to elicit immune responses in mammals. In plants, RNA and genomic DNA can activate immunity, although the exact mechanism through which they are sensed is not clear. The aim of this work was to study the possible effect of ssODNs on plant immunity. Key Results The ssODNs IMT504 and 2006 increased protection against the pathogens Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 and Botrytis cinerea but not against tobacco mosaic virus-Cg when infiltrated in Arabidopsis thaliana. In addition, ssODNs inhibited root growth and promoted stomatal closure in a concentration-dependent manner, with half-maximal effective concentrations between 0.79 and 2.06 µm. Promotion of stomatal closure by ssODNs was reduced by DNase I treatment. It was also diminished by the NADPH oxidase inhibitor diphenyleneiodonium and by coronatine, a bacterial toxin that inhibits NADPH oxidase-dependent reactive oxygen species (ROS) synthesis in guard cells. In addition it was found that ssODN-mediated stomatal closure was impaired in bak1-5, bak1-5/bkk1, mpk3 and npr1-3 mutants. ssODNs also induced early expression of MPK3, WRKY33, PROPEP1 and FRK1 genes involved in plant defence, an effect that was reduced in bak1-5 and bak1-5/bkk1 mutants. Conclusions ssODNs are capable of inducing protection against pathogens through the activation of defence genes and promotion of stomatal closure through a mechanism similar to that of other elicitors of plant immunity, which involves the BAK1 co-receptor, and ROS synthesis.

The roles of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in signalling transduction of stomatal closure induced by salt stress were examined by using pharmacological, spectrophotographic and laser scanning confocal microscopic (LSCM) approaches in Vicia faba L. Salt stress resulted in stomatal closure, and this effect was blocked by H2S modulators hypotaurine (HT), aminooxy acetic acid (AOA), hydroxylamine (NH2OH), potassium pyruvate (C3H3KO3) and ammonia (NH3) and H2O2 modulators ascorbic acid (ASA), catalase (CAT), diphenylene iodonium (DPI). Additionally, salt stress induced H2S generation and increased L-/D-cysteine desulfhydrase (L-/D-CDes, pyridoxalphosphate-dependent enzyme) activity in leaves, and caused H2O2 production in guard cells, and these effects were significantly suppressed by H2S modulators and H2O2 modulators respectively. Moreover, H2O2 modulators suppressed salt stress-induced increase of H2S levels and L-/D-CDes activity in leaves as well as stomatal closure of V. faba. However, H2S modulators had no effects on salt stress-induced H2O2 production in guard cells. Altogether, our data suggested that H2S and H2O2 probably are involved in salt stress-induced stomatal closure, and H2S may function downstream of H2O2 in salt stress-induced stomatal movement in V. faba.

The role and the interrelationship of cytosolic alkalisation and nitric oxide (NO) in UVB-induced stomatal closure were investigated in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. by stomatal bioassay and laser-scanning confocal microscopy. In response to 0.5 W m–2 UVB radiation, the rise of NO levels in guard cells occurred after cytosolic alkalisation but preceded stomatal closure. UVB-induced NO production and stomatal closure were both inhibited by NO scavengers, nitrate reductase (NR) inhibitors and a Nia2–5/Nia1–2 mutation, and also by butyrate. Methylamine induced NO generation and stomatal closure in the wild-type but not in the Nia2–5/Nia1–2 mutant or wild-type plants pretreated with NO scavengers or NR inhibitors while enhancing the cytosolic pH in guard cells under light. NO generation in wild-type guard cells was largely induced after 60 min of UVB radiation. The defect in UVB-induced NO generation in Nia2–5/Nia1–2 guard cells did not affect the changes of guard cell pH before 60 min of UVB radiation, but prevented the UVB-induced cytosolic alkalisation after 60 min of radiation. Meanwhile, exogenous NO caused a marked rise of cytosolic pH in guard cells. Together, our results show that cytosolic alkalisation and NR-dependent NO production coordinately function in UVB signalling in A. thaliana guard cells.

Abstract Production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a key signal event for methyl jasmonate (MeJA)- and abscisic acid (ABA)-induced stomatal closure. We recently showed that reactive carbonyl species (RCS) stimulates stomatal closure as an intermediate downstream of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production in the ABA signaling pathway in guard cells of Nicotiana tabacum and Arabidopsis thaliana. In this study, we examined whether RCS functions as an intermediate downstream of H2O2 production in MeJA signaling in guard cells using transgenic tobacco plants overexpressing A. thaliana 2-alkenal reductase (n-alkanal + NAD(P)+ ⇌ 2-alkenal + NAD(P)H + H+) (AER-OE tobacco) and Arabidopsis plants. The stomatal closure induced by MeJA was impaired in the AER-OE tobacco and was inhibited by RCS scavengers, carnosine and pyridoxamine, in the wild-type (WT) tobacco plants and Arabidopsis plants. Application of MeJA significantly induced the accumulation of RCS, including acrolein and 4-hydroxy-(E)-2-nonenal, in the WT tobacco but not in the AER-OE plants. Application of MeJA induced H2O2 production in the WT tobacco and the AER-OE plants and the H2O2 production was not inhibited by the RCS scavengers. These results suggest that RCS functions as an intermediate downstream of ROS production in MeJA signaling and in ABA signaling in guard cells.
