A pair of nuclear factor Y transcription factors act as positive regulators in jasmonate signaling and disease resistance in Arabidopsis

The plant hormone jasmonate(JA)regulates plant growth and immunity by orchestrating a genome-wide transcriptional reprogramming.In the resting stage,JASMONATE-ZIM DOMAIN(JAZ)proteins act as main repressors to regulate the expression of JA-responsive genes in the JA signaling pathway.However,the mechanisms underlying de-repression of JA-responsive genes in response to JA treatment remain elusive.Here,we report two nuclear factor Y transcription factors NF-YB2 and NF-YB3(thereafter YB2 and YB3)play key roles in such de-repression in Arabidopsis.YB2 and YB3 function redundantly and positively regulate plant resistance against the necrotrophic pathogen Botrytis cinerea,which are specially required for transcriptional activation of a set of JA-responsive genes following inoculation.Furthermore,YB2 and YB3 modulated their ex-pression through direct occupancy and interaction with histone demethylase Ref6 to remove repressive histone modifications.Moreover,YB2 and YB3 physically interacted with JAZ repressors and neg-atively modulated their abundance,which in turn attenuated the inhibition of JAZ proteins on the transcription of JA-responsive genes,thereby acti-vating JA response and promoting disease resist-ance.Overall,our study reveals the positive regu-lators of YB2 and YB3 in JA signaling by positively regulating transcription of JA-responsive genes and negatively modulating the abundance of JAZ proteins.
