Jasmonic acid (JA) modulates plant development, growth, and responses to stress. Previously, we showed that in Arabidopsis thaliana, JA promotes the formation of extra xylem in roots, and mutant plants unable to express PIN-FORMED 3 (PIN3) and PIN7 formed extra xylem in the absence of exogenous JA. Those results suggested that JA modulates root xylem development by controlling PIN-mediated polar auxin transport. Consistent with this, treatment with an auxin transport inhibitor induced extra xylem formation. Here, we characterized the expression of PIN3 and PIN7 in JA-treated Arabidopsis plants. PIN3 expression was not altered in response to JA; by contrast, PIN7 expression was reduced by JA, which suggested that PIN7 is involved in JA-mediated xylem development. Indeed, overexpressing PIN7 suppressed the formation of extra xylem in response to JA. Based on these results, we propose that JA mediates xylem development by controlling polar auxin transport with PIN7 critically involved in this process.
