Main conclusionThe SNF5-type protein BUSHY plays a role in the regulation of seed germination via the gibberellin pathway dependent on HUB1 inArabidopsis thaliana.AbstractSWITCH/SUCROSE NONFERMENTING (SWI/SNF) complexes play diverse roles in plant development. Some components have roles in embryo development and seed maturation, however, whether the SNF5-type protein BUSHY (BSH), one of the components, plays a role inArabidopsisseed related traits is presently unclear. In our study, we show that a loss-of-function mutation in BSH causes increased seed germination inArabidopsis.BSHtranscription was induced by the gibberellin (GA) inhibitor paclobutrazol (PAC) in the seed, and BSH regulates the expression of GA pathway genes, such asGibberellin 3-Oxidase 1(GA3OX1),Gibberellic Acid-Stimulated Arabidopsis 4(GASA4), andGASA6during seed germination. A genetic analysis showed that seed germination was distinctly improved in thebshga3ox1ga3ox2triple mutant, indicating that BSH acts partially downstream of GA3OX1 and GA3OX2. Moreover, the regulation of seed germination by BSH in response to PAC is dependent on HUB1. These results provide new insights and clues to understand the mechanisms of phytohormones in the regulation of seed germination.
