Abstract
High temperature (HT) has an adverse effect on rice grain filling by inhibiting the accumulation of storage materials. However, the regulatory mechanism of this inhibition remains unknown. Here, we report that Opaque2 like transcription factor OsbZIP58 is a key factor regulating storage material accumulation under HT. The OsbZIP58 gene promotes expression of many seed storage protein genes and starch synthesis genes while inhibits expression of some starch hydrolyzing α-amylase genes under HT. The loss of OsbZIP58 function leads to floury and shrunken endosperms and dramatically reduced storage materials in the seeds under HT. HT is found to affect alternative splicing of OsbZIP58, promoting the formation of the truncated OsbZIP58β protein form over the full-length OsbZIP58α protein form. The OsbZIP58β form has a lower transcriptional activity than the OsbZIP58α form, especially under HT condition. Interestingly, rice varieties with less heat sensitivity have reduced alternative splicing of OsbZIP58. Therefore, OsbZIP58 is a crucial gene in regulating storage material accumulation under HT and lower alternative splicing of OsbZIP58 may contribute to heat tolerance during grain filling.
