摘要
Fritillaria cirrhosa, an endangered plant endemic to plateau regions, faces escalating cadmium (Cd) stress due to pollution in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. This study employed physiological, cytological, and multi-omics techniques to investigate the toxic effects of Cd stress and detoxification mechanisms of F. cirrhosa. The results demonstrated that Cd caused severe damage to cell membranes and organelles, leading to significant oxidative damage and reducing photosynthesis, alkaloid and nucleoside contents, and biomass. Cd application increased cell wall thickness by 167.89% in leaves and 445.78% in bulbs, leading to weight percentage of Cd increases of 76.00% and 257.14%, respectively. PER, CESA, PME, and SUS, genes responsible for cell wall thickening, were significantly upregulated. Additionally, the levels of metabolites participating in the scavenging of reactive oxygen species, including oxidized glutathione, D-proline, L-citrulline, and putrescine, were significantly increased under Cd stress. Combined multi-omics analyses revealed that glutathione metabolism and cell wall biosynthesis pathways jointly constituted the detoxification mechanism of F. cirrhosa in response to Cd stress. This study provides a theoretical basis for further screening of new cultivars for Cd tolerance and developing appropriate cultivation strategies to alleviate Cd toxicity. The investigation of Fritillaria cirrhosa's response to cadmium (Cd) stress is environmentally relevant due to the hazardous nature of Cd pollution in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The study's findings highlight the hazardous nature of Cd pollution, not only in terms of its impact on F. cirrhosa's physiological and molecular responses but also in terms of potential loss of biodiversity and medicinal resources. By identifying crucial pathways involved in Cd detoxification and impacts on medicinal compound synthesis, the work provides valuable insights for developing strategies to mitigate Cd toxicity and conserve the ecological balance of the plateau.
