The study reveals that PagWOX11/12a enhances salt tolerance in poplar trees by modulating ROS scavenging to reduce the accumulation of H2O2 under salt stress.
The WUSCHEL-related homeobox (WOX) transcription factors WOX11 and WOX12 regulate adventitious rooting and responses to stress. The underlying physiological and molecular regulatory mechanisms in salt stress tolerance remain largely unexplored. Here, we characterized the roles of PagWOX11/12a from 84K poplar (Populus alba x P. glandulosa) and the underlying regulatory mechanism in salt stress. PagWOX11/12a was strongly induced by salt stress in roots. Overexpression of PagWOX11/12a in poplar enhanced salt tolerance, as evident by the promotion of growth-related biomass. In contrast, salt-treated PagWOX11/12a dominant repression plants displayed reduced biomass growth. Under salt stress conditions, PagWOX11/12a-overexpressed lines showed higher reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging capacity and lower accumulation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) than non-transgenic 84K plants, whereas the suppressors displayed the opposite phenotype. In addition, PagWOX11/12a directly bound to the promoter region of PagCYP736A12 and regulated PagCYP736A12 expression. The activated PagCYP736A12 could enhance ROS scavenging, thus reducing H2O2 levels in roots under salt stress in PagWOX11/12a-overexpressed poplars. The collective results support the important role of PagWOX11/12a in salt acclimation of poplar trees, indicating that PagWOX11/12a enhances salt tolerance through modulation of ROS scavenging by directly regulating PagCYP736A12 expression in poplar.
