In the context of climate change and the reduction of mineral nitrogen (N) inputs applied to the field, winter oilseed rape (WOSR) will have to cope with low-N conditions combined with water limitation periods. Since these stresses can significantly reduce seed yield and seed quality, maintaining WOSR productivity under a wide range of growth conditions represents a major goal for crop improvement. N metabolism plays a pivotal role during the metabolic acclimation to drought in Brassica species by supporting the accumulation of osmoprotective compounds and the source-to-sink remobilization of nutrients. Thus, N deficiency could have detrimental effects on the acclimation of WOSR to drought. Here, we took advantage of a previously established experiment to evaluate the metabolic acclimation of WOSR during 14 days of drought, followed by 8 days of rehydration under high- or low-N fertilization regimes. For this purpose, we selected three leaf ranks exhibiting contrasted sink/source status to perform absolute quantification of plant central metabolites. Besides the well-described accumulation of proline, we observed contrasted accumulations of some “respiratory” amino acids (branched-chain amino acids, lysineand tyrosine) in response to drought under high- and low-N conditions. Drought also induced an increase in sucrose content in sink leaves combined with a decrease in source leaves. N deficiency strongly decreased the levels of major amino acids and subsequently the metabolic response to drought. The drought-rehydration sequence identified proline, phenylalanine, and tryptophan as valuable metabolic indicators of WOSR water status for sink leaves. The results were discussed with respect to the metabolic origin of sucrose and some amino acids in sink leaves and the impact of drought on source-to-sink remobilization processes depending on N nutrition status. Overall, this study identified major metabolic signatures reflecting a similar response of oilseed rape to drought under low- and high-N conditions. |
