One such mechanism is the activation of programmed cell death (PCD) in response to pathogen infection. PCD can also be induced by plant hormones, elicitors, and other stress stimuli. Plant cells can undergo cell death via different PCD pathways, including autophagy-dependent cell death (ADC), necrosis, and apoptosis.Researchers have identified several genes involved in PCD in plants, including ALY (Accelerated Cell Death) gene family in Arabidopsis. Among these genes, ALY3 and ALY4 have been shown to play a role in PCD induced by pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and pathogen infection.NbALD is a homolog of ALY4 in tobacco, and has been identified as a positive regulator of PCD in response to an elicitor, cryptogein. In addition, previous studies have suggested that NbALD and ALY4 may play a role in stomatal closure in response to stress stimuli.Objectives:The aim of this study is to investigate the functional role of NbALD and ALY4 in PCD induced by an elicitor, as well as their role in stomatal closure in response to stress stimuli.Methodology:To investigate the role of NbALD and ALY4 in PCD induced by an elicitor, we will use a tobacco system. We will first generate transgenic tobacco plants overexpressing NbALD and ALY4, as well as plants with reduced expression of these genes using RNA interference (RNAi). We will then perform cell death assays on these plants using the elicitor, cryptogein.To investigate the role of NbALD and ALY4 in stomatal closure, we will use Arabidopsis as a model system.

We will then perform stomatal closure assays on these plants using different stress stimuli, including drought and abscisic acid (ABA).Expected outcomes:We expect to demonstrate that NbALD and ALY4 play a positive role in PCD induced by cryptogein in tobacco plants, as well as in stomatal closure in response to drought and ABA in Arabidopsis. These findings could contribute to a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying plant defense responses and help in the development of more robust and stress-tolerant crop plants in the future.
