Abstract:

Vesicle transport plays important roles in plant tolerance to abiotic stress. However,the function of pepper CaSec16(COPII coat assembly protein Sec16-like),a gene related to vesicle formation,remains unclear in heat tolerance. CaSec16 was localized in cytoplasm and nucleus,and was expressed in various tissues of pepper. The expression of CaSec16 was up-regulated during heat stress. Compared with the control plants,the heat tolerance of pepper plants with CaSec16-silenced was compromised,which was shown by the death of growing point,the aggravated leaf wilting,the higher increment in relative electric conductivity,the lower contents of total chlorophyll,the higher accumulation of dead cells,H2O2,MDA and proline increased,and the weakened up-regulation of heat-tolerance marker genes. On the contrary,compared with the control plants,the heat tolerance of CaSec16 transient- overexpression pepper plants was improved,which was presented the mitigated leaf wilting,the lower contents of MDA and proline,and the strengthened up-regulation of heat-tolerance marker genes. Taken together,it was speculated that CaSec16 positively regulates the heat tolerance of pepper.

Key words: pepper, CaSec16, vesicle transport, heat tolerance
