This study isolated and characterized 11 Stress associated proteins (SAPs) from T. hispida, and found that most ThSAPs exhibited transcriptional responses to abiotic stresses and phytohormones, with ThSAP6 being significantly induced by salt stress. Function analysis revealed ThSAP6 as a positive regulator of salt stress response, showing potential for biotechnological approaches to improve salt tolerance in plants.
Stress associated proteins (SAPs), a class of A20/AN1 zinc finger domain-containing proteins, are involved in a variety of biotic and abiotic stress responses in plants. However, little is known about the SAP gene family and their functions in Tamarix hispida. In this study, we isolated and characterized 11 SAPs from T. hispida. The expression patterns of ThSAPs were analyzed under various stresses (salt and drought) and phytohormone treatment (SA, ABA and MeJA) using real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Most ThSAPs exhibited transcriptional responses to abiotic stresses and phytohormones. Among these ThSAPs, ThSAP6 was significantly induced by salt stress. Gain-and loss-of-function analyses revealed that ThSAP6 was a positive regulator of salt stress response. Overexpression of ThSAP6 in T. hispida increased antioxidant enzymes activity and proline content and decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and cell membrane damage under salt stress, while the opposite physiological changes were observed in ThSAP6-RNAi (RNA interference) lines. This study provides a comprehensive description of the SAP gene family in T. hispida, and demonstrates that ThSAP6 is a potential candidate for biotechnological approaches to improve salt tolerance in plants.
