| Title | Rice phospholipase C4 enhances Ca2+ and ROS bursts during effector-triggered immunity to induce ferroptotic cell death. | |

Abstract: Phospholipases are major regulators of lipid-dependent signaling and play crucial roles in plant immunity. Rice (Oryza sativa) phospholipase C4 (Osplc4) is a major functional enzyme in the rice phospholipase family that regulates intracellular Ca2+ levels. Here we show that Osplc4 translocates primarily to the plasma membrane in a Ca2+-dependent manner, with its C2 domain functioning as a membrane trafficker. Transient expression of Osplc4 and its truncated variants triggers cell death and immune responses in plants. During effector-triggered immunity (ETI) in rice, Osplc4 expression and Ca2+ influx are specifically and strongly induced in response to avirulent Magnaporthe oryzae. Upon infection, the rice Osplc4 knockout mutant (ΔOsplc4) exhibits substantially reduced Ca2+, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and Fe3+ accumulation, as well as diminished lipid peroxidation and hypersensitive response (HR) cell death. Complementation of ΔOsplc4 can fully restore Ca2+-mediated ferroptotic cell death. Osplc4 expression also activates HR cell death and the expression of defense-related genes such as OsRbohB, OsMEK2, OsMPK1, and OsPAL1 during avirulent M. oryzae infection. The Ca2+ chelator ethylene glycol-bis(2-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) substantially inhibits Ca2+, ROS, and Fe3+ accumulation and HR-related cell death in rice, whereas the Ca2+ influx enhancers trifluoperazine hydrochloride (TFP) and acibenzolar-S-methyl (ASM) strongly induce Ca2+-mediated ferroptotic cell death. Additionally, Osplc4 overexpression triggers cell death and immune responses in Arabidopsis. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that Osplc4 acts as a downstream target of resistosome activation and sustains the co-elevation of Ca2+ and ROS levels during rice ETI, thereby promoting Ca2+-mediated, lipid ROS-dependent ferroptotic cell death. These results establish Osplc4 as a key regulator of Ca2+-dependent plant immunity. |
