Abstract
Plasticity in root system architecture (RSA) allows plants to adapt to changing nutritional status in the soil. Phosphorus availability is a major determinant of crop yield, and RSA remodeling is critical to increasing the efficiency of phosphorus acquisition. Although substantial progress has been made in understanding the signaling mechanism driving phosphate starvation responses in plants, whether and how epigenetic regulatory mechanisms contribute is poorly understood. Here, we report that the Switch defective/sucrose non-fermentable (SWI/SNF) ATPase BRAHMA (BRM) is involved in the local response to phosphate (Pi) starvation. The loss of BRM function induces iron (Fe) accumulation through increased LOW PHOSPHATE ROOT1 (LPR1) and LPR2 expression, reducing primary root length under Pi deficiency. We also demonstrate that BRM recruits the histone deacetylase (HDA) complex HDA6-HDC1 to facilitate histone H3 deacetylation at LPR loci, thereby negatively regulating local Pi deficiency responses. BRM is degraded under Pi deficiency conditions through the 26 S proteasome pathway, leading to increased histone H3 acetylation at the LPR loci. Collectively, our data suggest that the chromatin remodeler BRM, in concert with HDA6, negatively regulates Fe-dependent local Pi starvation responses by transcriptionally repressing the RSA-related genes LPR1 and LPR2 in Arabidopsis thaliana.
