Figure Lengend Snippet: Jasmonic acid biosynthesis and signaling are induced in fc2 under cycling light conditions. The impact of singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) on jasmonic acid (JA) biosynthesis and signaling was assessed in constant light (24 h) and 16 h light/8 h dark diurnal (cycling) light conditions. ( a ) Schematic illustration of the JA biosynthesis pathway, with relative expression (compared to wt in the same light condition) of 11 key JA biosynthesis and signaling genes. Expression data is from the DESeq2 analysis of the included RNA-seq data set. Error bars in the graph represent standard error (ifcSE) estimated by DESeq2 (**, padj < 0.01; ***, padj < 0.001). In chloroplasts, Defective In Anther Dehiscence 1 (DAD1) catalyzes the conversion of galactolipids into α-linolenic acid (α-LeA), which is converted into 12-oxo-phytodienoic acid (OPDA) by a series of enzymes; 13-Lipoxygenase (LOX), Allene Oxide Synthase (AOS), and Allene Oxide Cyclase (AOC). Subsequently, OPDA is exported out of the chloroplast via the channel protein JASSY. Inside the peroxisome, OPDA is reduced by the OPDA reductase 3 (OPR3) and shortened in the carboxylic acid side chain by β-oxidation enzymes (ACX1) into JA. In the cytosol, Jasmonate Resistant 1 (JAR1) conjugates isoleucine to JA converting it into JA-Ile. Jasmonate Transporter 1 (JAT1) transports JA-Ile into the nucleus. In response to stressed conditions, JA-Ile attach with the COI1-SCF (coronatine insensitive1- Skp1-Cul1-F-box), to promote ubiquitination and degradation of jasmonic acid repressors JAZ and JAV1, thereby activating JA response genes. ( b ) Graph showing JA content (ng/g fresh weight (FW)) measured in whole rosettes from plants grown for 19 days constant (24 h) light conditions or 17 days in 24 h light conditions and two days of 16 h light/8 h dark diurnal (cycling) light conditions. Values are means ± SEM ( n = 3 biological replicates). Statistical analyses in b were performed using one-way ANOVA tests, and the different letters above the bars indicate significant differences within data sets determined by Tukey–Kramer post-tests ( P ≤ 0.05). Separate analyses were performed for the different light treatments, and the significance of cycling light treatment is denoted by letters with a prime symbol (ʹ). ( c ) Heatmap showing relative expression of 58 genes from gene ontology term “JA mediated signaling pathway” (GO:0009867). The blue and red colors correspond to low and high gene expression, respectively
