    Abstract:
    Cold acclimation (CA) is an important evolutionary adaptive mechanism for wheat freezing resistence. To clarify the molecular basis of wheat CA and freezing tolerance, the effects of CA (4 °C) and non-CA (20 °C) treatments and freezing stress (-5 °C) on the proteins in the wheat crown were characterized via an iTRAQ-based proteomic analysis. A total of 669 differentially accumulated proteins (DAPs) were identified after the CA, of which seven were also DAPs in the CA plants exposed to freezing stress. Additionally, the 15 DAPs in the CA group and the 23 DAPs in the non-CA group after the freezing treatment differed substantially. Functional analyses indicated that CA enhanced freezing tolerance by regulating proteins involved in signal transduction, carbohydrate metabolism, stress and defense responses, and phenylpropanoid biosynthesis. An integrated transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic analysis revealed significant changes in various components of the glutathione metabolic pathway. The overexpression and silencing of Wdhn13 in Arabidopsis and wheat resulted in increased tolerance and sensitivity to freezing stress, respectively, suggesting Wdhn13 promotes freezing tolerance. Overall, our study offers insights into the regulatory network underlying the CA and freezing tolerance of wheat, which may be useful for elucidating wheat freezing resistance.
