The control of apical dominance involves auxin, strigolactones (SLs), cytokinins (CKs), and sugars, but the mechanistic controls of this regulatory network are not fully understood. Here, we show that brassinosteroid (BR) promotes bud outgrowth in tomato through the direct transcriptional regulation of BRANCHED1 (BRC1) by the BR signaling component BRASSINAZOLE-RESISTANT1 (BZR1). Attenuated responses to the removal of the apical bud, the inhibition of auxin, SLs or gibberellin synthesis, or treatment with CK and sucrose, were observed in bud outgrowth and the levels of BRC1 transcripts in the BR-deficient or bzr1 mutants. Furthermore, the accumulation of BR and the dephosphorylated form of BZR1 were increased by apical bud removal, inhibition of auxin, and SLs synthesis or treatment with CK and sucrose. These responses were decreased in the DELLA-deficient mutant. In addition, CK accumulation was inhibited by auxin and SLs, and decreased in the DELLA-deficient mutant, but it was increased in response to sucrose treatment. CK promoted BR synthesis in axillary buds through the action of the type-B response regulator, RR10. Our results demonstrate that BR signaling integrates multiple pathways that control shoot branching. Local BR signaling in axillary buds is therefore a potential target for shaping plant architecture.

AbstractLeaf angle in cereals is an important agronomic trait contributing to plant architecture and grain yield by determining the plant compactness. Although ZmCLA4 was identified to shape plant architecture by affecting leaf angle, the detailed regulatory mechanism of ZmCLA4 in maize remains unclear. ZmCLA4 was identified as a transcriptional repressor using the Gal4-LexA/UAS system and transactivation analysis in yeast. The DNA affinity purification (DAP)-seq assay showed that ZmCLA4 not only acts as a repressor containing the EAR motif (CACCGGAC), but was also found to have two new motifs, CCGARGS and CDTCNTC. On analyzing the ZmCLA4-bound targeted genes, we found that ZmCLA4, as a cross node of multiple plant hormone-mediated pathways, directly bound to ARF22 and IAA26 to regulate auxin transport and mediated brassinosteroid signaling by directly binding to BZR3 and 14-3-3. ZmCLA4 bound two WRKY genes involved with abscisic acid, two genes (CYP75B1, CYP93D1) involved with jasmonic acid, B3 involved in the response to ethylene, and thereby negatively regulated leaf angle formation. We built a new regulatory network for the ZmCLA4 gene controlling leaf angle in maize, which contributed to the understanding of ZmCLA4’s regulatory mechanism and will improve grain yields by facilitating optimization of plant architecture.
