    Abstract:
    Drought is an important abiotic stress that constrains the quality and quantity of tea plants. The green leaf volatiles Z-3-hexenyl acetate (Z-3-HAC) have been reported to play an essential role in stress responses. However, the underlying mechanisms of drought tolerance in tea plants remain elusive. This study investigated the physiological, proteomic, and phosphoproteomic profiling of two tea plant varieties of Longjingchangye (LJCY) and Zhongcha 108 (ZC108) with contrasting drought tolerance characteristics under drought stress. Physiological data showed that spraying Z-3-HAC exhibited higher activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) in both LJCY and ZC108 but lower content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in LJCY under drought stress. The proteomic and phosphoproteomic analysis suggested that the drought tolerance mechanism of Z-3-HAC in LJCY and ZC108 was different. Proteomic analyses revealed that Z-3-HAC enhanced the drought tolerance of LJCY by fructose metabolism while enhancing the drought tolerance of ZC108 by promoting glucan biosynthesis and galactose metabolism. Furthermore, the differential abundance phosphoproteins (DAPPs) related to intracellular protein transmembrane transport and protein transmembrane transport were enriched in LJCY, and the regulation of response to osmotic stress and regulation of mRNA processing were enriched in ZC108. In addition, protein-phosphoprotein interactions (PPI) analyses suggested that energy metabolism and starch and sucrose metabolic processes might play critical roles in LJCY and ZC108, respectively. These results will help to understand the mechanisms by which Z-3-HAC enhances the drought resistance of tea plants at the protein level. SIGNIFICANT: Green leaf volatiles (GLVs) are important volatile organic compounds that play essential roles in plant defense against biotic and abiotic stresses. To understand the mechanisms of Z-3-HAC in improving the drought tolerance of tea plants, two contrasting drought tolerance varieties (LJCY and ZC108) were comparatively evaluated by proteomics and phosphoproteomics. This analysis evidenced changes in the abundance of proteins involved in energy metabolism and starch and sucrose metabolic processes in LJCY and ZC108, respectively. These proteins may elucidate new molecular aspects of the drought resistance mechanism of Z-3-HAC, providing a theoretical basis for drought resistance breeding of tea plants.
