RESUMEN
Cultivar-dependent cadmium (Cd) accumulation was principal in developing Cd-pollution safe cultivars (PSCs). Proteins related to different Cd accumulations of the low-Cd-accumulating (SJ19) and high-Cd-accumulating (CX4) cultivars were investigated by iTRAQ analysis. Higher Cd bioaccumulation factors and translocation factor in CX4 than in SJ19 were consistent with the cultivar-dependent Cd accumulations. The Cd uptake was promoted in CX4 due to its higher expression of Cd-binding proteins and the lower expression of Cd-efflux proteins in roots. What's more, significantly elevated thiol groups (PC2 and PC3) in CX4 under Cd stress might contribute to the high Cd accumulation in roots and the root-to-shoot translocation of Cd-PC complex. Up-regulated proteins involved in cellulose biosynthesis and pectin de-esterification in SJ19 enhanced the Cd sequestration of root cell walls, which was considered as the predominant strategy for reducing Cd accumulation in shoots. The present study provided novel insights in the cultivar-dependent Cd accumulation in shoots of B. parachinensis.

To investigate the molecular mechanism of Cd-accumulating difference between Lactuca sativa cultivars, full-length transcriptome comparison, as well as biochemical validation, have been conducted between Cd pollution-safe cultivar (Cd-PSC, cv. LYDL) and high-Cd-accumulating cultivar (cv. HXDWQ). The full-length transcriptome of L. sativa cultivars was achieved for the first time. The results showed high Cd compartmentalization in the cell wall of cv. LYDL was ascribed to the enhanced cell wall biosynthesis under Cd stress, which was consistent with the high cellular debris Cd level (32.10-43.58%). The expression levels of transporter genes in cv. HXDWQ were about 1.19 to 1.21-fold higher than those in cv. LYDL, which was in accordance with the high ratio of easy migrative Cd chemical forms (68.59-81.98%), indicating the high Cd accumulation in the shoot of cv. HXDWQ was ascribed to the higher transportation capacity in cv. HXDWQ. Moreover, the Cd-induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress was associated with the higher Cd detoxification and tolerance in cv. HXDWQ rather than in cv. LYDL. The study provides new insights into the Cd-induced transcriptomic difference between L. sativa cultivars and further contributes to the molecular breeding of L. sativa Cd-PSC.

To investigate the effect of lignin in the cultivar-dependent Cd detoxification of Brassica chinensis L., Cd and lignin contents, lignin composition and laccase genes expressions in low-Cd-accumulating (LAJK) and high-Cd-accumulating (HAJS) cultivars grown under control (CK) and 25 µM Cd-treatment were determined. The results showed that lignin combined about 14 % of total Cd in both LAJK and HAJS. LAC genes were more up-regulated in HAJS than in LAJK, indicating that the LAC genes were involved in the cultivar-dependent lignin functions. Higher ß-aryl ether (A) proportion in the lignin side chain region in LAJK than in HAJS were observed, whereas resinol (B) and phenylcoumaran (C) constitute much higher proportions in HAJS than in LAJK. Chemical calculation to estimate Cd affinity associating with lignin side chain region displayed that i) ß-aryl ether (A) exhibited major coupling with lignin aromatic region; ii) resinol (B) and phenylcoumaran (C) displayed major participation in complexation with Cd. We therefore conclude that Cd compartmentalization in the secondary cell wall (SCW) by coupling with lignin side chain region is responsible for Cd detoxification related to cultivar-dependent Cd accumulation of Brassica chinensis. This is the first study on lignin composition in relation to Cd retention mechanisms in SCW.
