Povzetek: Functional genomics offers a powerful, unbiased approach to elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying the toxicity of environmental pollutants. In this study, we applied genome-wide screening in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii to investigate two classical herbicides: paraquat and diuron. Our screen successfully uncovered critical nuclear-encoded pathways that govern susceptibility. For both herbicides, we identified genes regulating the assembly and maintenance of the photosynthetic machinery, highlighting the central role of nuclear control over these chloroplast-localized targets. Beyond these target-related factors, we discovered novel nontarget-site resistance mechanisms. For paraquat, we identified intracellular trafficking as the central determinant of toxicity, experimentally characterizing a P5B ATPase transporter and a fatty acid elongation pathway whose disruption, we propose, converges on the same endomembrane delivery route through sphingolipid depletion. In contrast, our screening data suggest that diuron tolerance may be associated with a metabolic strategy focused on energy conservation, where the inactivation of specific NADPH-consuming enzymes could preserve reducing power for essential antioxidant defense. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that functional genomics can reveal novel, complex modes of action even for well-characterized chemicals, providing the mechanistic resolution required to advance modern ecotoxicological risk assessments.

Povzetek: Understanding the molecular mechanisms behind plant response to stress can enhancebreeding strategies and help us design crop varieties with improved stress tolerance,yield, and quality. To investigate resource redistribution from growth- to defense-relatedprocesses in an essential tuber crop, potato, here we generate a large-scale compartmen-talized genome-scale metabolic model (GEM), potato-GEM. Apart from a large-scalereconstruction of primary metabolism, the model includes the full known potato sec-ondary metabolism, spanning over 566 reactions that facilitate the biosynthesis of 182distinct potato secondary metabolites. Constraint-based modeling identifies that theactivation of the largest amount of secondary (defense) pathways occurs at a decreaseof the relative growth rate of potato leaf, due to the costs incurred by defense. We thenobtain transcriptomics data from experiments exposing potato leaves to two bioticstress scenarios, a herbivore and a viral pathogen, and apply them as constraints toproduce condition-specific models. We show that these models recapitulate experimen-tally observed decreases in relative growth rates under treatment as well as changes inmetabolite levels between treatments, enabling us to pinpoint the metabolic rewiringunderlying growth–defense trade-offs. Potato- GEM thus presents a useful resource tostudy and broaden our understanding of potato and general plant defense responsesunder stress conditions.

Povzetek: Potato (Solanum tuberosum) is highly water and space efficient but susceptible to abiotic stresses such as heat, drought, and flooding, which are severely exacerbated by climate change. Our understanding of crop acclimation to abiotic stress, however, remains limited. Here, we present a comprehensive molecular and physiological high-throughput profiling of potato (Solanum tuberosum, cv. Désirée) under heat, drought, and waterlogging applied as single stresses or in combinations designed to mimic realistic future scenarios. Stress responses were monitored via daily phenotyping and multi-omics analyses of leaf samples comprising proteomics, targeted transcriptomics, metabolomics, and hormonomics at several timepoints during and after stress treatments. Additionally, critical metabolites of tuber samples were analyzed at the end of the stress period. We performed integrative multi-omics data analysis using a bioinformatic pipeline that we established based on machine learning and knowledge networks. Waterlogging produced the most immediate and dramatic effects on potato plants, interestingly activating ABA responses similar to drought stress. In addition, we observed distinct stress signatures at multiple molecular levels in response to heat or drought and to a combination of both. In response to all treatments, we found a downregulation of photosynthesis at different molecular levels, an accumulation of minor amino acids, and diverse stress-induced hormones. Our integrative multi-omics analysis provides global insights into plant stress responses, facilitating improved breeding strategies toward climate-adapted potato varieties.

Povzetek: The ELIXIR Plant Sciences Community is an interdisciplinary group of researchers with diverse backgrounds from computer science to different fields of plant biology. We answer the needs of both bioinformaticians and plant biologists. The Community objective is to develop services supporting the integration and linking of phenotypic, genotypic, omics (e.g. expression, metabolomics, etc.), environmental, and bibliographic data. The underlying scientific use cases encompass fundamental and applied plant sciences, including genetics, system biology and omics approaches, within the broader context of climate change, agroecology, food security, and sustainable agriculture. To meet the current challenges in agriculture, the ELIXIR Community promotes tools, databases, standards, and best practices for plant research while developing joint initiatives such as international projects and events in collaboration with European infrastructures (EMPHASIS, AnaEE-ERIC, Euro-Bioimaging, METROFOOD-RI). The ELIXIR Community also supports the establishment of links to structuring national projects and initiatives such as NFDI in Germany, or the french Agroecology and ICT program. Despite ongoing efforts, challenges remain, such as the continued scattering of plant molecular and cellular data, which hampers efficient data integration and reuse. Additionally, progressing toward a comprehensive agriculture data space is essential to address the interdisciplinary challenges that modern agriculture faces. Strengthening engagement with related research communities, such as those working on plant pathogens, is also a priority to ensure a holistic approach to plant science and agricultural research. Finally the Plant Sciences Community links with other ELIXIR Communities and Focus Groups, in particular to contribute to the objectives and priority of the Biodiversity, Food Security and Pathogens and of the Cellular and Molecular Research scientific priority areas.

Povzetek: Background Ca2+ and H2O2 are second messengers that regulate a wide range of cellular events in response to different environmental and developmental cues. In plants, stress-induced H2O2 has been shown to initiate characteristic Ca2+ signatures; however, a clear picture of the molecular connection between H2O2-induced Ca2+ signals and H2O2-induced cellular responses is missing, particularly in cereal crops such as barley. Here, we employed RNA-seq analyses to identify transcriptome changes in roots and leaves of barley after H2O2 treatment under conditions that inhibited the formation of cytosolic Ca2+ transients. To that end, plasma membrane Ca2+ channels were blocked by LaCl3 application prior to stimulation of barley tissues with H2O2. Results We examined the expression patterns of 4246 genes that had previously been shown to be differentially expressed upon H2O2 application. Here, we further compared their expression between H2O2 and LaCl3 + H2O2 treatment. Genes showing expression patterns different to the previous study were considered to be Ca2+-dependent H2O2-responsive genes. These genes, numbering 331 in leaves and 1320 in roots, could be classified in five and four clusters, respectively. Expression patterns of several genes from each cluster were confirmed by RT-qPCR. We furthermore performed a network analysis to identify potential regulatory paths from known Ca2+-related genes to the newly identified Ca2+-dependent H2O2 responsive genes, using the recently described Stress Knowledge Map. This analysis indicated several transcription factors as key points of the responses mediated by the cross-talk between H2O2 and Ca2+. Conclusion Our study indicates that about 70% of the H2O2-responsive genes in barley roots require a transient increase in cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations for alteration in their transcript abundance, whereas in leaves, the Ca2+ dependency was much lower at about 33%. Targeted gene analysis and pathway modeling identified not only known components of the Ca2+ signaling cascade in plants but also genes that are not yet connected to stimuli-associated signaling. Potential key transcription factors identified in this study can be further analyzed in barley and other crops to ultimately disentangle the underlying mechanisms of H2O2-associated signal transduction mechanisms. This could aid breeding for improved stress resistance to optimize performance and productivity under increasing climate challenges.
