Sucrose Modulation of Soybean Vsp Gene Expression Is Inhibited by Auxin

We have shown that auxin represses soybean (Glycine max L.) vegetative
storage protein gene (Vsp) expression in suspension-cultured cells and in
leaves and petioles of excised trifoliates. The auxin analog
naphthyleneacetic acid (NAA) at 10 [mu]M strongly inhibited methyl
jasmonate-induced Vsp expression in soybean suspension-cultured cells. Both
indole-3-acetic acid and NAA inhibited methyl jasmonate- and wound-induced
expression of the Vsp and LoxA excised soybean trifoliate leaves and
petioles. The less active auxin analog phenylacetic acid had less effect on
methyl jasmonate- and wound-induced expression of these genes. Addition of
cytokinin to alter the auxin:cytokinin ratio did not reverse auxin
inhibition of Vsp expression. Transcription of [beta]-glucuronidase (Gus)
modulated by a methyl jasmonate-responsive domain derived from the VspB
promoter was minimally influenced by auxin. In contract, sucrose-induced
expression of Gus mediated by a sucrose-responsive domain of the VspB
promoter was strongly inhibited by NAA. We conclude that auxin inhibits Vsp
mRNA accumulation, in part, by repressing sugar-mediated activation of Vsp
expression.
