The regulatory mechanism of rapid lignification for timely anther dehiscence

Anther dehiscence is a crucial event in plant re-production,tightly regulated and dependent on the lignification of the anther endothecium.In this study,we investigated the rapid lignification process that ensures timely anther dehiscence in Arabidopsis.Our findings reveal that endothecium lignification can be divided into two distinct phases.During Phase Ⅰ,lignin precursors are synthesized without polymerization,while Phase Ⅱ involves simultaneous synthesis of lignin precursors and polymerization.The transcription factors MYB26,NST1/2,and ARF17 specifically regulate the pathway responsible for the synthesis and polymerization of lignin mon-omers in Phase Ⅱ.MYB26-NST1/2 is the key regu-latory pathway responsible for endothecium lig-nification,while ARF17 facilitates this process by interacting with MYB26.Interestingly,our results demonstrate that the lignification of the endothe-cium,which occurs within approximately 26 h,is much faster than that of the vascular tissue.These findings provide valuable insights into the regulation mechanism of rapid lignification in the endothecium,which enables timely anther dehiscence and suc-cessful pollen release during plant reproduction.
