Amaranthus retroflexus L. is one of the malignant weeds which can cause a reduction in the soybean yield. We found a population of A. retroflexus (R-Q) resistant to fomesafen through the initial screening of whole-plant dose response bioassay in the research. The resistance index of the population (R-Q) was 183 times of the sensitive population (S-N). The resistant and sensitive populations were used as experimental materials in the paper. Strand-specific RNA-Seq analyses of R‒Q and S‒N populations obtained from herbicide-treated and mock-treated leaf samples after treatment were conducted to generate a full-length transcriptome database. We analyzed differentially expressed genes (DEGs) among the R-Q and S‒N A. retroflexus populations treated with recommended dose and mock-treated on the 1st (24 h) and 3rd (72 h) days to identify genes involved in fomesafen resistance. All 82,287 unigenes were annotated by Blastx search with E-value < 0.00001 from 7 databases. A total of 94,815 DEGs among the three group comparisons were identified. Two nuclear genes encoding PPO (PPX1 and PPX2) and five unigenes belonging to the AP2-EREBP, GRAS, NAC, bHLH and bZIP families exhibited different expression patterns between individuals of S‒N and R-Q populations. The A. retroflexus transcriptome and specific transcription factor families which can respond to fomesafen in resistant and susceptible genotypes were reported in this paper. The PPX1 and PPX2 genes of the target enzyme were identified. The study establishes the foundation for future research and provides opportunities to manage resistant weeds better.

Article Synopsis
  • Myxococcus xanthus uses polyphosphate kinase 1 (Ppk1) to synthesize polyphosphates (polyPs) and degrades them with exopolyphosphatases Ppx1 and Ppx2, playing a crucial role in managing energy levels during development.
  • The study shows that Ppk1 mutants die earlier in stationary phase, but don't differ significantly in growth or structure compared to wild types in phosphate-starved or other nutrient-deficient conditions.
  • Elevated intracellular polyP levels and altered adenylate energy charge (AEC) ratios in mutants indicate that polyPs are vital for energy balance, particularly in spore germination.

The linear polymer polyphosphate (poly-P) is present across all three domains of life and serves diverse physiological functions. The enzyme polyphosphate kinase (Ppk) is responsible for poly-P synthesis, whereas poly-P degradation is carried out by the enzyme exopolyphosphatase (Ppx). In many , the Ppk-encoding gene () is found clustered together with two genes encoding putative exopolyphosphatases ( and ) each having different domain compositions, with the gene order .

Polyphosphate kinase 1 (Ppk1) generates polyphosphates (polyPs) by catalyzing phosphate transfer from ATP. In the presence of ATP, Myxococcus xanthus Ppk1 showed the highest activity with polyP60-70 but also showed high activity with orthophosphate and pyrophosphate. Ppk1 synthesizes long-chain polyPs with >1 000 phosphate residues from orthophosphate or pyrophosphate present in high concentrations, suggesting that in M.

Stress adaptation and virulence of various bacterial pathogens require stringent response pathways involving guanosine pentaphosphate and inorganic polyphosphate (PolyP). In M. tuberculosis, intracellular PolyP levels are maintained by the activities of polyphosphate kinase (PPK-1, PPK-2) and exopolyphosphatases (PPX-1, PPX-2).
