Synergistic effects of carbon cycle metabolism and photosynthesis in Chinese cabbage under salt stress

Chinese cabbage(Brassica rapa ssp.pekinensis)has a long cultivation history and is one of the vegetable crops with the largest cultivation area in China.However,salt stress severely damages photosynthesis and hormone metabolism,nutritional balances,and results in ion toxicity in plants.To better understand the mechanisms of salt-induced growth inhibition in Chinese cabbage,RNA-seq and physiological index deter-mination were conducted to explore the impacts of salt stress on carbon cycle metabolism and photosynthesis in Chinese cabbage.Here,we found that the number of thylakoids and grana lamellae and the content of starch granules and chlorophyll in the leaves of Chinese cabbage under salt stress showed a time-dependent response,first increasing and then decreasing.Chinese cabbage increased the transcript levels of genes related to the photosynthetic apparatus and carbon metabolism under salt stress,probably in an attempt to alleviate damage to the photosynthetic system and enhance CO2 fixation and energy metabolism.The transcription of genes related to starch and sucrose synthesis and degradation were also enhanced;this might have been an attempt to maintain intracellular osmotic pressure by increasing soluble sugar concentrations.Soluble sugars could also be used as potential reactive oxygen species(ROS)scavengers,in concert with peroxidase(POD)enzymes,to eliminate ROS that accumulate during metabolic processes.Our study characterizes the synergistic response network of carbon metabolism and photosynthesis under salt stress.
