Abstract
This study is aimed at the responses of grapevine adventitious root explants to zinc (Zn2+) excess. Within 24 h Zn2+ induced oxidative burst in concentration-dependent manner. The time course analysis revealed biphasic response in superoxide (O2–·) production. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) accumulation rose gradually within 24 h. Enhanced Zn2+ concentrations did not induce progression of cell death. Immediately upon Zn2+ addition to the perfusion solution, root epidermal cells exhibited hyperpolarization of their electrical membrane potential (EM), that was transient and independent of Zn2+ concentration. The subsequent, transient depolarization of EM was concentration-dependent and its magnitude increased with increasing Zn2+ concentration. After 24 h the EM in treated roots recovered and its values were identical with those of control roots. Membrane permeability of root cells increased in the roots treated with 5 mM Zn2+ within 24 h while the lower concentrations did not show any impact on membrane permeability. Differences in protein expression pattern identified by proteomic approach involving antibody microarray expression profiling revealed Zn2+-induced upregulation of apoptosis-related protein dolichyl-diphosphooligosaccharide-protein glycosyltransferase subunit (DAD1), extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), some antioxidant enzymes and structural proteins in the roots. Moreover, the proteins involved in plant defense mechanisms endochitinase I (CHIT 1) and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) were down-regulated indicating a cross-talk between defense and heavy metal signaling pathways. Taken together, these results showed that the grape cultivar Limberger is highly Zn2+-responsive and could be used as a model plant for studying physiological and molecular responses to heavy metal excess.
