Jasmonate signalling

Productivity of important crop rice is greatly affected by salinity. The plant hormone jasmonate plays a vital role in salt stress adaptation, but also evokes detrimental side effects if not timely shut down again.

Jasmonic acid and its methyl ester are ubiquitous plant sig-nalling compounds necessary for the regulation of growth and development, as well as for the response of plants to environmental stress factors. To date, it is not clear whether methyl jasmonate itself acts as a signal or if its conversion to jasmonic acid is mandatory prior to the induction of a def-ense response. We have cloned a cDNA, encoding a methyl jasmonate-cleaving enzyme, from tomato cell suspension cultures.

Jasmonates are derived from oxygenated fatty acids (oxylipins) via the octadecanoid pathway and are characterized by a pentacyclic ring struc-ture. They have regulatory functions as signaling molecules in plant devel-opment and adaptation to environmental stress.

Jasmonic acid (JA) and its derivates, collectively known as jasmonates (JAs), are essential signalling molecules that coordinate the plant response to biotic and abiotic challenges, in addition to several developmental pro-cesses. The COI1 F-box and additional SCF modulators have long been known to have a crucial role in the JA-signalling pathway.
