Abstract

The perennial selenium (Se) hyperaccumulator Cardamine hupingshanensis (Brassicaceae) thrives in aquatic and subaquatic Se-rich environments along the Wuling Mountains, China. Using bright-field and epifluorescence microscopy, the present study determined the anatomical structures and histochemical features that allow this species to survive in Se-rich aquatic environments. The roots of C. hupingshanensis have an endodermis with Casparian walls, suberin lamellae, and lignified secondary cell walls; the cortex and hypodermal walls have phi (Φ) thickenings; and the mature taproots have a secondary structure with a periderm. The stems possess a lignified sclerenchymal ring and an endodermis, and the pith and cortex walls have polysaccharide-rich collenchyma. Air spaces are present in the intercellular spaces and aerenchyma in the cortex and pith of the roots and shoots. The dense fine roots with lignified Φ thickenings and polysaccharide-rich collenchyma in the shoots may allow C. hupingshanensis to hyperaccumulate Se. Overall, our study elucidated the anatomical features that permit C. hupingshanensis to thrive in Se-rich aquatic environments.

1 Introduction

Cardamine hupingshanensis (Brassicaceae) is a perennial aquatic and subaquatic herb that is a well-known selenium (Se) and cadmium (Cd) hyperaccumulator which is found in Se-rich environments, and it is narrowly distributed in the wetlands along the Wuling Mountains, China [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. Other wetland Se accumulators, Buddleia lindleyana and Oenanthe javanica have also been reported from the same region [6]. In contrast, other Se hyperaccumulators, such as Opuntia ficus-indica, Stanleya pinnata, and several Astragalus species, occur in arid regions [7, 8, 9, 10]. Several studies have detailed the anatomical structures associated with metal and metalloid hyperaccumulation in plants [1114].

C. hupingshanensis plants typically grow to a height of 30–100 cm and thrive in soil containing 0.16-23.74 mg/kg Se [1,5,15]. In a previous study, increased Se concentrations in the soil enhanced the growth and biomass of C. hupingshanensis plants under experimental conditions [5,16,17]. A Se soil concentration of 140 mg/kg resulted in the highest biomass accumulation, with higher Se content in the leaves (968 mg/kg) than in the roots (896 mg/kg) or stems (815 mg/kg). At Se concentrations exceeding 140 mg/kg, plant growth was inhibited with reduced biomass, and the leaves and veins were observed to curl and swell, respectively [5,16,17].

Like many other wetland plants, C. hupingshanensis is typically subjected to anoxia following flooding [1,18,19,20,21]. Aquatic or amphibious plants have thus evolved various key traits to ensure the survival of the submerged organs, including aerenchyma that store oxygen and apoplastic barriers that impede the escape of air and ions [22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31].

The aerenchyma and suberized and lignified endodermis and exodermis of the aquatic roots of Phragmites and Oryza have been extensively studied [18, 20, 22, 23, 26, 27]. The roots of O. javanica possess an endodermis and hypodermis with suberin lamellae around the aerenchymal walls [32]. Cortical radial walls with lignified phi (Φ) thickenings (bands of secondary wall thickenings that strengthen the primary wall) have been reported in the roots of certain crops, such as Brassica napus, B. oleracea, Myrica rubra, Pyrus malus, and Ginkgo biloba [33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38]. The amphibious stems of other flood-tolerant plants, including Cynodon dactylon, Hemarthria altissima, Paspalum distichum, Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides, Phalaris arundinacea, Typha, and Ranunculus trichophyllus possess a pith cavity and cortical aerenchyma; a cuticle; a suberized and lignified endodermis and exodermis; and a peripheral mechanical ring or periderm [28, 29, 30, 31, 39, 40]. The pith and cortex of the stems of O. javanica, H. altissima, and P. distichum also possess collenchyma [28, 32, 41].

Little information exists on the anatomical and histochemical features of confirmed Se accumulators across various families, including Amaranthaceae, Asteraceae, Brassicaceae, Fabaceae, Rubiaceae, and Orobanchaceae [1, 10]. While various biochemical and physiological analyses have confirmed that C. hupingshanensis hyperaccumulates Se and Cd [5, 42], the associated structural and histochemical features of this species are yet to be elucidated. Accordingly, in this study we focused on determining the anatomical features of the roots and shoots of wild-type C. hupingshanensis that enable it to hyperaccumulate Se and survive its aquatic lifestyle.

2 Materials and Methods

2.1 Materials

The C. hupingshanensis samples were collected from the Hupingshan National Natural Reserve in Hunan Province, and from regions of the Yutangba and Liziping in Hubei Province along the Wuling Mountains, China. One-hundred twenty collected samples of C. hupingshanensis were preserved in the germplasm resource center of the Hubei Selenium Industry Technology Research Institute, China. Five mature specimens exhibiting normal growth from each collected site, namely Hupingshan, Yutangba, and Liziping, were observed under the microscope. The freshly sampled roots and shoots were fixed in formaldehyde-alcohol-acetic acid (FAA) [43] following collection. After fixing the tissues, freehand sections were cut using a two-sided blade. The sections were made at 5 mm, 15 mm, 30 mm, and 50 mm from the tip to the base with the cortex sloughed off (Fig. 1); through the middle of the stem and the base internode; and through the middle stem petioles and leaves. The sections were about 10 to 25 μm thick.

2.2 Methods

All the samples were sectioned under a stereoscope (JNOEC JSZ6, China). For histochemical observation, the sections were stained with Sudan red 7B (SR7B) for the suberin lamellae [31, 44], phloroglucinol–HCl (Pg) for lignin [43], berberine hemisulfate–aniline blue (BAB) for the Casparian bands and thickened cell walls [31, 45,46], and toluidine blue O (TBO) for the other structures including polysaccharides [31,37]. The specimens were examined using bright-field microscopy on a Leica DME microscope and photographed with a digital camera (Nikon E5400, Japan). Specimens stained with BAB were viewed under ultraviolet light on an Olympus IX71 epifluorescence microscope and photographed with a digital camera (RZ200C-21, China).

3 Results and Discussion

3.1 General morphology

Morphologically, C. hupingshanensis is characterized by erect stems (Fig. 1A) and taproots with a mass of fine adventitious roots (Fig. 1B). The fine adventitious roots contain one or two cell cortex layers (Fig. 2). The thick taproots possess three cell cortex layers in the primary structure (Fig. 3), with the cortex sloughed off in the secondary structure (Fig. 1C;Fig. 4).

The fine adventitious roots and young taproots possess a diarch stele with a differentiating proto- and metaxylem; a cortex with an endodermis; and an enlarged outer ring with a distinct hypodermis. The cortex and hypodermal walls have lignified Φ thickenings. Mature taproots possess a typical secondary structure with a periderm.

The stems possess a lignified sclerenchymal ring enclosed within a central cylinder with scattered vascular bundles internal to the cortex, which possesses an endodermis. The pith and cortex walls contain polysaccharide-rich collenchyma. Aerenchyma and intercellular spaces are present in the cortex and pith of the roots and shoots.

3.2 Fine adventitious roots

Faint Casparian bands and lightly suberin lamellae and passage cells are present on the endodermis; the cortex and hypodermal walls have slightly lignified Φ thickenings at 5 mm from the root tip (Fig. 2A, B); and the stele has a diarch protoxylem. The endodermis possesses almost complete suberin lamellae and a few passage cells at 15 mm (Fig. 2C). The stele has a metaxylem; the endodermis has faint Casparian bands and lignin, becoming heavily suberized (Fig. 2D, E, F); and the cortex walls have obvious Φ thickenings in the 30 mm section. Narrow intercellular spaces can be observed between the cortex and hypodermis (Fig. 2A–F).

The stele has a few secondary xylems; and the endodermis has obvious and lignified Casparian bands and is heavily suberized at the root base (Fig. 2G, H, I). The inner and radial cortex and hypodermal walls possess both large and small lignified Φ thickenings (Fig. 2G, I); the cortex and hypodermis are partially sloughed off; and the periderm appears suberized (Fig. 2H, I).

3.3 Taproots

The stele possesses diarch protoxylem poles; the endodermis has faint Casparian bands and almost complete suberin lamellae with a few passage cells; and the cortex and hypodermal walls have slightly lignified Φ thickenings at 5 mm from the root tip (Fig. 3A, B). The endodermis has almost complete suberin lamellae in the 15 mm section (Fig. 3C).

The stele has a metaxylem and few secondary xylems; the endodermis has Casparian bands and lignin, becoming heavily suberized (Fig. 3D, E, F); and the inner and radial cortex walls have obviously suberized and lignified Φ thickenings at 30 mm. Intercellular spaces and aerenchyma can be observed between the cortex and hypodermis (Fig. 3A–F).

The stele has a secondary xylem; the endodermis has lignified Casparian bands and is heavily suberized at 50 mm (Fig. 4A, B, C). The inner and radial cortex and hypodermal walls possess both large and small lignified Φ thickenings; the cortex and hypodermis have been partially sloughed off; and the periderm is suberized and lignified (Fig. 4A, B, C). The cortex and hypodermis have been sloughed off in the mature taproots; the stele has a secondary xylem and spacious parenchyma; and the periderm has suberized and lignified Casparian bands (Fig. 4D, E, F).

Here we demonstrated that the fine adventitious roots and primary structure of the taproots in the aquatic Se hyperaccumulator C. hupingshanensis exhibit similar anatomical and histochemical features. The roots have an endodermis and hypodermis with large cells. The cortex and hypodermal walls have lignified Φ thickenings that are greater near the endodermis. The taproot cortex has more cell layers than the fine adventitious roots, and the mature taproots have a secondary structure containing a periderm, as commonly observed in eudicots.

The young roots of C. hupingshanensis are similar in structure to another Se accumulator, O. javanica [6, 32]. The hypodermis of O. javanica has more cell layers and a cortex with spacious aerenchyma, though the cortex lacks lignified walls and Φ thickenings. Around the roots of O. javanica there are aerenchyma, and the walls possess suberin lamellae.

The roots of wetland or aquatic eudicots, such as R. trichophyllus, H. sibthorpioides, Artemisia lavandulaefolia, and A. selengensis, possess an endodermis and uniseriate exodermis and a cortex that lacks lignified walls [40, 47,48]. In contrast, the roots of wetland grasses, such as Phragmites and Oryza, possess an endodermis and multiseriate exodermis [20, 27,28,29,30].

The Φ thickenings of the roots of C. hupingshanensis are similar to those of some other brassicaceous species, including B. oleracea and B. napus, and act as a barrier to ion transport [34, 35]. Pelargonium hortorum has larger Φ thickenings at the hypodermis, which is opposite to what is observed in C. hupingshanensis [37]. Myrica rubra, P. malus, and G. biloba possess Φ thickenings near the endodermal radial walls but lack lignified walls [33, 36, 38]. Organelle-rich cytoplasm is present in the roots of the nickel (Ni) hyperaccumulator Senecio coronatus [1113], and a Cd hyperaccumulating Arabidopsis thaliana genotype was found to possess dense root hairs [14]. We believe that lignified Φ thickenings in the roots might trap Se ions and contribute to the Se hyperaccumulation of C. hupingshanensis. The dense fine roots and lignified Φ thickenings may allow C. hupingshanensis to hyperaccumulate Se in a manner that differs from the Ni hyperaccumulator S. coronatus and the Cd hyperaccumulating A. thaliana genotype [11,12 14].

The role of air spaces in plant organs is to retain oxygen under hypoxic and anoxic conditions in order to enhance survival [18,19 21,22,23, 26]. The fine roots and primary root structures of the taproots of C. hupingshanensis possess fewer intercellular air spaces and aerenchyma than O. javanica, P. distichum, P. arundinacea, A. lavandulaefolia, and A. selengensis [26, 28,29,30, 32, 40, 47], while H. sibthorpioides completely lacks air spaces in the roots [41].

3.4 Stems and leaves

The stems possess a thickened lignified sclerenchymal ring enclosed within a central cylinder with scattered vascular bundles internal to the cortex. The sclerenchymal ring generally has vascular bundles inside it, and a spacious pith is present in the center of the sclerenchymal ring (Fig. 5A, B, C). The cortex has an endodermis with Casparian bands (Fig. 5D, E) and suberin (Fig. 5F) and lignin (Fig. 5C). The outer surface has a cuticle that reaches the inside of the epidermis (Fig. 5D, F). The pith and cortex have aerenchyma, and the walls have unlignified collenchyma that contain polysaccharides (Fig. 5A, B, C, D, F; see also [34]). Beneath the epidermis in the mature stems there is a peripheral mechanical ring (Fig. 5F).

A cuticle is present on the surface (Fig. 6A). Cross-sections of the leaf blade reveals vascular bundles, palisade tissue, a cuticle, and vascular bundles that are slightly lignified (Fig. 6D, E, F).

The stems of C. hupingshanensis have an endodermis that is similar to H. sibthorpioides, R. trichophyllus, P. distichum, P. arundinacea, A. lavandulaefolia, and Typha, [30, 39,40,41, 47,48]. In contrast, the stems of P. distichum, P. arundinacea, and A. lavandulaefolia possess an exodermis, and the mature stems of A. lavandulaefolia and A. selengensis have periderm features that are absent in C. hupingshanensis. A suberized and lignified peripheral mechanical ring is present in other flood-tolerant species, such as C. dactylon, H. altissima, P. distichum, and P. arundinacea [28, 29, 30], as is the lignified sclerenchymal ring observed in C. hupingshanensis. However, the collenchyma tissues, which contain polysaccharides, in the pith and cortex walls of C. hupingshanensis are larger and thinner than in H. sibthorpioides, H. altissima, P. distichum, and O. javanica, whereas the parenchyma are typical of eudicots [28,32,37,48].

The petioles of H. sibthorpioides and R. trichophyllus have an endodermis, but lack the lignified sclerenchymal ring around the vascular bundles and the cortex with collenchyma that are present in C. hupingshanensis [40, 41]. The leaf blade structure of C. hupingshanensis is common to eudicots. We speculate that the polysaccharide-rich collenchyma walls of the pith and cortex in the shoots might enhance the tolerance of C. hupingshanensis to Se stress.

The cortex and pith of the stems of C. hupingshanensis possess a few aerenchyma lacunae, which is similar to that observed in H. sibthorpioides following submersion [41]. In contrast, H. altissima, P. distichum, A. lavandulaefolia, and A. selengensis have spacious pith cavities that might facilitate survival in heavily submerged conditions [28,29,30, 40, 47]. The stems of C. hupingshanensis are similar to those of the typical wetland- and aquatic-adapted plants H. sibthorpioides and R. trichophyllus, which possess an endodermis [40, 41].

4 Conclusion

In summary, C. hupingshanensis possesses apoplastic barriers consisting of an endodermis, lignified Φ thickenings, and a cuticle, which is consistent with what has been found in studies on the effects of water stress on oxygen loss and solute transport in plants [18, 19, 22, 23, 24, 25, 32, 41, 45]. The lignified Φ thickenings in the roots and polysaccharide-rich collenchyma in the shoots might have evolved as key structural and histochemical features of C. hupingshanensis for Se and Cd hyperaccumulation. These features differ from those of the Ni hyperaccumulator S. coronatus and Cd hyperaccumulator A. thaliana genotype [2, 5, 11,12, 14, 34,35]. The Se hyperaccumulation of C. hupingshanensis might be attributed to the dense fine roots and lignified Φ thickenings, as well as the polysaccharide-rich collenchyma in the shoots. Our results demonstrate that C. hupingshanensis possesses anatomical traits that have facilitated its adaptation to the Se-rich, aquatic and subaquatic environments, allowing it to accumulate harmful heavy metal ions and thus remediate contaminated soil [002,3,12,14].
