Abstract:

Histidine kinase is a key component of the two-component system in plants, playing a crucial role in regulating plant growth, development, and responses to various stresses. In this study, IbHK5, a histidine kinase homologous to Arabidopsis AHK5, was identified in sweetpotato. Subcellular localization analysis revealed that the IbHK5 protein is localized in both the cytoplasm and nucleus. To investigate its biological function in response to drought and salt stress, IbHK5was ectopically expressed in Arabidopsis and overexpressed in sweetpotato using an Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated in vivo root transformation system. The results showed that overexpression of IbHK5 in Arabidopsis enhanced both drought and salt tolerance. The transgenic plants exhibited higher activities of POD, SOD, and CAT enzymes, lower levels of H2O2 and MDA, and increased expression of stress-related genes, including AtPOD, AtSOD, AtCAT, and AtGPX. Similarly, overexpression of IbHK5 in sweetpotato enhanced drought and salt tolerance, with transgenic hairy roots showing elevated POD, SOD, and CAT enzyme activities as well as reduced H2O2 and MDA content. Furthermore, yeast two-hybrid assays demonstrated that IbHK5 interacts with Arabidopsis proteins AHP1, AHP2, AHP3, and AHP5, indicating its involvement in signal transduction pathways. These results suggest that IbHK5 is a positive regulator of drought and salt stress tolerance. This study provides insights into the physiological and molecular mechanisms underlying drought and salt stress responses in sweetpotato and offers a theoretical foundation for the genetic improvement and breeding of drought- and salt-tolerant sweetpotato varieties.

Key words: sweetpotato, two component system, histidine kinase, IbHK5, drought stress, salt stress
