Plant SNF1-related protein kinase 2 (SnRK2) and protein phosphatase 2C (PP2C) family members are core components of the ABA signal transduction pathway. SnRK2 and PP2C proteins have been suggested to play crucial roles in fruit ripening and improving plant tolerance to drought stress, but supporting genetic information has been lacking in sweet cherry (Prunus aviumL.). Here, we cloned six full-lengthSnRK2genes and three full-lengthPP2Cgenes from sweet cherry cv. Hong Deng. Quantitative PCR analysis revealed thatPacSnRK2.2,PacSnRK2.3,PacSnRK2.6, andPacPP2C1–3were negatively regulated in fruits in response to exogenous ABA treatment,PacSnRK2.4andPacSnRK2.5were upregulated, andPacSnRK2.1expression was not affected. The ABA treatment also significantly promoted the accumulation of anthocyanins in sweet cherry fruit. The expression of allPacSnRK2andPacPP2Cgenes was induced by dehydration stress, which also promoted the accumulation of drought stress signaling molecules in the sweet cherry fruits, including ABA, soluble sugars, and anthocyanin. Furthermore, a yeast two-hybrid analysis demonstrated that PacPP2C1 interacts with all six PacSnRK2s, while PacPP2C3 does not interact with PacSnRK2.5. PacPP2C2 does not interact with PacSnRK2.1 or PacSnRK2.4. These results indicate that PacSnRK2s and PacPP2Cs may play a variety of roles in the sweet cherry ABA signaling pathway and the fruit response to drought stress.
