    Deciphering cold stress resilience: multiomics insights in contrasting wheat genotypes from the western himalayas
    (John Wiley & Sons, 2026) Jan, Sofora; Jan, Farkhandah; Rathore, Mukesh; Singh, Yogita; Kapoor, Prexha; Chaturvedi, Palak; Ghatak, Arindam; Ramesh, Palakurthi; Kumar, Upendra; Prasad, Manoj; Kumar, Sundeep; Rustgi, Sachin; Weckwerth, Wolfram; Kalia, Sanjay; Varshney, Rajeev Kumar; Mir, Reyazul Rouf
    Cold stress threatens wheat productivity, particularly in regions with extreme climatic conditions. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying wheat's response to cold stress, we performed a multiomics analysis integrating lipidomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics. Our study focused on two wheat genotypes with contrasting cold tolerance levels, SKAU_52 (tolerant) and SKAU_4301 (susceptible) to capture genotype-specific responses under cold stress. Lipidomic analysis revealed significant changes in lipid composition, with unsaturated lipids such as digalactosyldiacyl glycerols (DGDGs) and monogalactosyldiacylglycerols (MGDGs) upregulated in response to cold stress. These lipids are associated with maintaining membrane fluidity, whereas saturated lipids were downregulated in the cold-tolerant genotype. Transcriptomics analysis provides a strong evidence that cold tolerance in wheat is governed by coordinated activation of the ICE-CBF-COR regulatory cascade, with the cold-tolerant genotype ‘SKAU_52’ showing stronger and more sustained induction across pathway tiers than the cold susceptible wheat genotype ‘SKAU_4301’. Similarly, proteomic data highlighted differential abundance of proteins involved in antioxidative defence, osmotic adjustment and signal transduction, including late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins. Metabolome assessment revealed substantial alterations in carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism, with sucrose and amino acids such as hydroxyproline identified as key contributors to cold tolerance. Additionally, defence hormones such as salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid (JA) and abscisic acid (ABA) exhibited genotype-specific regulation with higher accumulation in cold-tolerant genotype. Overall, this integrated multi-omics approach provides novel insights into the complex molecular mechanisms underlying cold stress adaptation in wheat, supporting the development of resilient wheat varieties capable of thriving in challenging cold environments.

    Type-A response regulators negatively mediate heat stress response by altering redox homeostasis in Arabidopsis
    (Frontiers Media S.A., 2022) Jindal, Sunita; Kerchev, Pavel; Berka, Miroslav; Černý, Martin; Botta, Halidev Krishna; Laxmi, Ashverya; Brzobohatý, Břetislav
    Besides the long-standing role of cytokinins (CKs) as growth regulators, their current positioning at the interface of development and stress responses is coming into recognition. The current evidence suggests the notion that CKs are involved in heat stress response (HSR), however, the role of CK signaling components is still elusive. In this study, we have identified a role of the CK signaling components type-A Arabidopsis response regulators (ARRs) in HSR in Arabidopsis. The mutants of multiple type-A ARR genes exhibit improved basal and acquired thermotolerance and, altered response to oxidative stress in our physiological analyses. Through proteomics profiling, we show that the type-A arr mutants experience a 'stress-primed' state enabling them to respond more efficiently upon exposure to real stress stimuli. A substantial number of proteins that are involved in the heat-acclimatization process such as the proteins related to cellular redox status and heat shock, are already altered in the type-A arr mutants without a prior exposure to stress conditions. The metabolomics analyses further reveal that the mutants accumulate higher amounts of α-and γ-tocopherols, which are important antioxidants for protection against oxidative damage. Collectively, our results suggest that the type-A ARRs play an important role in heat stress response by affecting the redox homeostasis in Arabidopsis.

    Proteomics of important food crops in the asia oceania region: current status and future perspectives
    (American Chemical Society, 2015) Chakraborty, Subhra; Salekdeh, Ghasem Hosseini; Yang, Pingfang; Woo, Sun Hee; Chin, Chiew Foan; Gehring, Chris; Haynes, Paul A.; Mirzaei, Mehdi; Komatsu, Setsuko
    In the rapidly growing economies of Asia and Oceania, food security has become a primary concern. With the rising population, growing more food at affordable prices is becoming even more important. In addition, the predicted climate change will lead to drastic changes in global surface temperature and changes in rainfall patterns that in turn will pose a serious threat to plant vegetation worldwide. As a result, understanding how plants will survive in a changing climate will be increasingly important. Such challenges require integrated approaches to increase agricultural production and cope with environmental threats. Proteomics can play a role in unraveling the underlying mechanisms for food production to address the growing demand for food. In this review, the current status of food crop proteomics is discussed, especially in regard to the Asia and Oceania regions. Furthermore, the future perspective in relation to proteomic techniques for the important food crops is highlighted.

    Plant organelle proteomics: collaborating for optimal cell function
    (Wiley-Blackwell, 2011) Agrawal, Ganesh Kumar; Bourguignon, Jacques; Rolland, Norbert; Ephritikhine, Genevieve; Ferro, Myriam; Jaquinod, Michel; Alexiou, Konstantinos G.; Chardot, Thierry; Chakraborty, Niranjan; Jolivet, Pascale; Doonan, John H.; Rakwal, Randeep
    Organelle proteomics describes the study of proteins present in organelle at a particular instance during the whole period of their life cycle in a cell. Organelles are specialized membrane bound structures within a cell that function by interacting with cytosolic and luminal soluble proteins making the protein composition of each organelle dynamic. Depending on organism, the total number of organelles within a cell varies, indicating their evolution with respect to protein number and function. For example, one of the striking differences between plant and animal cells is the plastids in plants. Organelles have their own proteins, and few organelles like mitochondria and chloroplast have their own genome to synthesize proteins for specific function and also require nuclear-encoded proteins. Enormous work has been performed on animal organelle proteomics. However, plant organelle proteomics has seen limited work mainly due to: (i) inter-plant and inter-tissue complexity, (ii) difficulties in isolation of subcellular compartments, and (iii) their enrichment and purity. Despite these concerns, the field of organelle proteomics is growing in plants, such as Arabidopsis, rice and maize. The available data are beginning to help better understand organelles and their distinct and/or overlapping functions in different plant tissues, organs or cell types, and more importantly, how protein components of organelles behave during development and with surrounding environments. Studies on organelles have provided a few good reviews, but none of them are comprehensive. Here, we present a comprehensive review on plant organelle proteomics starting from the significance of organelle in cells, to organelle isolation, to protein identification and to biology and beyond. To put together such a systematic, in-depth review and to translate acquired knowledge in a proper and adequate form, we join minds to provide discussion and viewpoints on the collaborative nature of organelles in cell, their proper function and evolution.
