ABSTRACT
Local damaging stimuli cause a rapid increase in the content of the defense phytohormone jasmonic acid (JA) and its biologically active derivative jasmonoyl-L-isoleucine (JA-Ile) in undamaged distal tissues. The increase in JA and JA-Ile levels was coincident with a rapid decrease in the levels of the precursor 12-oxo-phytodienoic acid (OPDA). The propagation of a stimulus-induced long-distance electrical signal, variation potential (VP), which is accompanied by intracellular changes in pH and Ca2+ levels, preceded systemic changes in jasmonate content. The decrease in pH during VP, mediated by transient inactivation of the plasma membrane H+-ATPase, induced the conversion of OPDA to JA, probably by regulating the availability of the OPDA substrate to JA biosynthetic enzymes. The regulation of systemic synthesis of JA and JA-Ile by the Ca2+ wave accompanying VP most likely occurs by the same mechanism of pH-induced conversion of OPDA to JA due to Ca2+-mediated decrease in pH as a result of H+-ATPase inactivation. Thus, the transient increase in intracellular Ca2+ levels and the transient decrease in intracellular pH are most likely the key mechanisms of VP-mediated regulation of jasmonate production in systemic tissues upon local stimulation.
