Publication Open Access Unravelling the phytotoxic effects of glyphosate on sensitive and resistant Amaranthus Palmeri populations by GC-MS and LC-MS metabolic profiling(MDPI, 2023) Zulet González, Ainhoa; Gorzolka, Karin; Döll, Stefanie; Gil Monreal, Miriam; Royuela Hernando, Mercedes; Zabalza Aznárez, Ana; Institute for Multidisciplinary Research in Applied Biology - IMAB; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaGlyphosate, the most successful herbicide in history, specifically inhibits the activity of the enzyme 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS; EC 2.5.1.19), one of the key enzymes in the shikimate pathway. Amaranthus palmeri is a driver weed in agriculture today that has evolved glyphosate-resistance through increased EPSPS gene copy number and other mechanisms. Non-targeted GC–MS and LC–MS metabolomic profiling was conducted to examine the innate physiology and the glyphosate-induced perturbations in one sensitive and one resistant (by EPSPS amplification) population of A. palmeri. In the absence of glyphosate treatment, the metabolic profile of both populations was very similar. The comparison between the effects of sublethal and lethal doses on sensitive and resistant populations suggests that lethality of the herbicide is associated with an amino acid pool imbalance and accumulation of the metabolites of the shikimate pathway upstream from EPSPS. Ferulic acid and its derivatives were accumulated in treated plants of both populations, while quercetin and its derivative contents were only lower in the resistant plants treated with glyphosate.Publication Open Access Quinate-enhanced glyphosate toxicity is related to the accumulation of quinate derivatives(Elsevier, 2024) Zulet González, Ainhoa; Gil Monreal, Miriam; Gorzolka, Karin; Royuela Hernando, Mercedes; Zabalza Aznárez, Ana; Institute for Multidisciplinary Research in Applied Biology - IMABGlyphosate is the most widely used herbicide and works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) of the shikimate pathway, preventing the aromatic amino acid biosynthesis. When applied to plants, it provokes the accumulation of quinate, a metabolite synthesized through a side branch of the shikimate pathway. The joint application of glyphosate and quinate enhanced glyphosate efficacy on Amaranthus palmeri, requiring one-quarter of the recommended dose of glyphosate for complete control. Expression of the genes of the shikimate pathway and non-targeted GC-MS metabolic profiling were conducted to compare the physiological response after glyphosate, quinate or the combination of both. A perturbed gene expression of the shikimate pathway was detected after quinate applied alone, while no relevant changes in the metabolome were detected. The sub-lethal glyphosate treatment induced gene expression in the shikimate pathway, accumulation of the metabolites located upstream EPSPS and disturbances in the amino acid content. The exacerbation of the phytotoxicity in the lethal combined treatment was not related to any specific change in the expression level of the shikimate pathway. Metabolic profiling indicated that the accumulation of quinate and quinate derivatives detected after quinate applied alone was severely enhanced after the combined treatment of quinate and glyphosate.
