Abstract

Summary: C4 photosynthesis is a complex trait requiring multiple developmental and metabolic alterations. Despite this complexity, it has independently evolved over 60 times. However, our understanding of the transition to C4 is complicated by the fact that variation in photosynthetic type is usually segregated between species that diverged a long time ago.Here, we perform a genome‐wide association study (GWAS) using the grass Alloteropsis semialata, the only known species to have C3, intermediate, and C4 accessions that recently diverged. We aimed to identify genomic regions associated with the strength of the C4 cycle (measured using δ13C), and the development of C4 leaf anatomy.Genomic regions correlated with δ13C include regulators of C4 decarboxylation enzymes (RIPK), nonphotochemical quenching (SOQ1), and the development of Kranz anatomy (SCARECROW‐LIKE). Regions associated with the development of C4 leaf anatomy in the intermediate individuals contain additional leaf anatomy regulators, including those responsible for vein patterning (GSL8) and meristem determinacy (GIF1).The parallel recruitment of paralogous leaf anatomy regulators between A. semialata and other C4 lineages implies the co‐option of these genes is context‐dependent, which likely has implications for the engineering of the C4 trait into C3 species.

Abstract

Summary: C4 photosynthesis is a key innovation in land plant evolution, but its immediate effects on population demography are unclear. We explore the early impact of the C4 trait on the trajectories of C4 and non‐C4 populations of the grass Alloteropsis semialata.We combine niche models projected into paleoclimate layers for the last 5 million years with demographic models based on genomic data.The initial split between C4 and non‐C4 populations was followed by a larger expansion of the ancestral C4 population, and further diversification led to the unparalleled expansion of descendant C4 populations. Overall, C4 populations spread over three continents and achieved the highest population growth, in agreement with a broader climatic niche that rendered a large potential range over time. The C4 populations that remained in the region of origin, however, experienced lower population growth, rather consistent with local geographic constraints. Moreover, the posterior transfer of some C4‐related characters to non‐C4 counterparts might have facilitated the recent expansion of non‐C4 populations in the region of origin.Altogether, our findings support that C4 photosynthesis provided an immediate demographic advantage to A. semialata populations, but its effect might be masked by geographic contingencies.

Abstract

Summary: Lateral gene transfer (LGT) is the movement of DNA between organisms without sexual reproduction. The acquired genes represent genetic novelties that have independently evolved in the donor's genome. Phylogenetic methods have shown that LGT is widespread across the entire grass family, although we know little about the underlying dynamics.We identify laterally acquired genes in five de novo reference genomes from the same grass genus (four Alloteropsis semialata and one Alloteropsis angusta). Using additional resequencing data for a further 40 Alloteropsis individuals, we place the acquisition of each gene onto a phylogeny using stochastic character mapping, and then infer rates of gains and losses.We detect 168 laterally acquired genes in the five reference genomes (32–100 per genome). Exponential decay models indicate that the rate of LGT acquisitions (6–28 per Ma) and subsequent losses (11–24% per Ma) varied significantly among lineages. Laterally acquired genes were lost at a higher rate than vertically inherited loci (0.02–0.8% per Ma).This high turnover creates intraspecific gene content variation, with a preponderance of them occurring as accessory genes in the Alloteropsis pangenome. This rapid turnover generates standing variation that can ultimately fuel local adaptation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Societal Impact Statement: Lateral gene transfer (LGT) refers to the transmission of genetic material without sexual reproduction. LGT is widespread in a number of plant species, including grasses. But how these genes of foreign origin got there is presently unknown. In this review, we show that transformation techniques used to genetically modify organisms could occur in the wild and be responsible for the frequently observed grass‐to‐grass LGTs. The distinction between natural evolutionary processes and genetic engineering might be arbitrary, and its validity will be further debated as agricultural biotechnology becomes more widely used and examples of "natural genetic engineering" through LGT increase. Summary: Lateral gene transfer (LGT) is the transmission of genetic material among species without sexual reproduction. LGT was initially thought to be restricted to prokaryotes, but it has since been reported in a wide range of eukaryotes, including plants. Grasses seem to be particularly prone to LGT and frequently exchange genes among species. However, the mechanism(s) facilitating these transfers in this economically and ecologically important group of plants are debated. Here, we review vector‐mediated, direct tissue‐to‐tissue contact, wide‐crossing and reproductive contamination LGT mechanisms and discuss the likelihood of each in light of recent studies. Of particular relevance are transformation approaches that require minimal human intervention to transfer DNA among grasses in the lab that could mimic the mechanisms facilitating grass‐to‐grass LGT in the wild. These approaches include relatively simple techniques, such as pollen tube pathway‐mediated transformation, that take advantage of the permeability of the reproductive process to introduce alien genetic material from a third individual into an embryo. This process could be easily mirrored in the wild where pollen from one species lands on the stigma of another, acting as a source of alien DNA that can ultimately contaminate the reproductive process. This contamination is likely to be prevalent in wind pollinated species such as grasses, where the rates of illegitimate pollination will be high. In conclusion, plant transformation methods requiring minimal intervention are likely paralleled in the wild where they act as the mechanism underpinning LGT between distantly related grass species.

Abstract

Background Numerous groups of plants have adapted to CO2 limitations by independently evolving C4 photosynthesis. This trait relies on concerted changes in anatomy and biochemistry to concentrate CO2 within the leaf and thereby boost productivity in tropical conditions. The ecological and economic importance of C4 photosynthesis has motivated intense research, often relying on comparisons between distantly related C4 and non-C4 plants. The photosynthetic type is fixed in most species, with the notable exception of the grass Alloteropsis semialata. This species includes populations exhibiting the ancestral C3 state in southern Africa, intermediate populations in the Zambezian region and C4 populations spread around the palaeotropics. Scope We compile here the knowledge on the distribution and evolutionary history of the Alloteropsis genus as a whole and discuss how this has furthered our understanding of C4 evolution. We then present a chromosome-level reference genome for a C3 individual and compare the genomic architecture with that of a C4 accession of A. semialata. Conclusions Alloteropsis semialata is one of the best systems in which to investigate the evolution of C4 photosynthesis because the genetic and phenotypic variation provides a fertile ground for comparative and population-level studies. Preliminary comparative genomic investigations show that the C3 and C4 genomes are highly syntenic and have undergone a modest amount of gene duplication and translocation since the different photosynthetic groups diverged. The background knowledge and publicly available genomic resources make A. semialata a great model for further comparative analyses of photosynthetic diversification. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

C4 photosynthesis results from anatomical and biochemical characteristics that together concentrate CO2 around ribulose‐1,5‐bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco), increasing productivity in warm conditions. This complex trait evolved through the gradual accumulation of components, and particular species possess only some of these, resulting in weak C4 activity. The consequences of adding C4 components have been modelled and investigated through comparative approaches, but the intraspecific dynamics responsible for strengthening the C4 pathway remain largely unexplored. Here, we evaluate the link between anatomical variation and C4 activity, focusing on populations of the photosynthetically diverse grass Alloteropsis semialata that fix various proportions of carbon via the C4 cycle. The carbon isotope ratios in these populations range from values typical of C3 to those typical of C4 plants. This variation is statistically explained by a combination of leaf anatomical traits linked to the preponderance of bundle sheath tissue. We hypothesize that increased investment in bundle sheath boosts the strength of the intercellular C4 pump and shifts the balance of carbon acquisition towards the C4 cycle. Carbon isotope ratios indicating a stronger C4 pathway are associated with warmer, drier environments, suggesting that incremental anatomical alterations can lead to the emergence of C4 physiology during local adaptation within metapopulations. Summary Statement: Intraspecific analyses of photosynthetically diverse Alloteropsis semialata populations show that strengthening of the C4 photosynthetic pathway is associated with changes in multiple leaf anatomical traits. Stronger C4 activity is correlated with warmer, drier habitats, indicating local adaptation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
