As a major component of vital macromolecules such as nucleic acids, amino acids, and chlorophyll, nitrogen is an essential macronutrient for plants. Although nitrogen is one of the most abundant elements in nature, accounting for about 70% of atmospheric gasses, its availability for plant uptake in the soil varies temporally and spatially. Therefore, modern agriculture relies heavily on nitrogen fertilization to maximize crop quality and yield. Auxins are a group of naturally occurring molecules derived from tryptophan, with indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) being the major form of auxin. The biosynthesis of IAA is defined by a two-step metabolic pathway, in which the TAA family of aminotransferases converts tryptophan (Trp) to indole-3-pyruvate (IPA), followed by a YUC flavin monooxygenases-mediated conversion of IPA to IAA. Auxin has extensive regulatory functions in plant development. 

nitrate auxin nitrogen plant growth and development

1. Introduction

Plants take up nitrogen from the soil in inorganic forms, such as nitrate and ammonium, or in organic forms, such as amino acids and peptides. Nitrate is the predominant form of nitrogen in aerobic soils [1] and the preferred nitrogen source for most higher plants, including Arabidopsis thaliana [2][3]. The acquisition of scarce nutrients such as nitrogen from the soil is one of the most challenging aspects of plant adaptation to a sessile lifestyle. Plants must cope with the varying availability and source compounds of this element and ensure its optimal uptake into the plant body. This is achieved by adjusting mechanisms and pathways that mediate soil exploration, nitrogen uptake, and distribution within the plant body [4]. The vital function of effective soil utilization and balanced uptake of the nitrogen-containing compounds is executed by the root organ. In the soil, the root system perceives and integrates local and systemic signals about the nitrogen status of the plant to regulate the uptake and distribution of nitrogen. An important component of this nutrient management strategy is flexible modulation of the root system architecture.
For example, after a period of deficiency, nitrate supply stimulates primary and lateral root growth and expansion [5][6][7][8], while supra-optimal nitrate levels have a negative effect on primary and lateral root growth [9][10][11]. The lateral roots of plants growing under heterogeneous nitrate conditions preferentially expand and colonize nitrate-rich zones [9]. Ammonium as the sole source of nitrogen suppresses the growth of primary and lateral roots [11] whereas L-glutamate as an organic nitrogen source inhibits the growth of primary roots but stimulates the growth of lateral roots [12]. This exceptional plasticity of the root system is at the core of nitrogen foraging, the ability of the root to adjust its growth and development to maximize nitrogen uptake under low and fluctuating nitrogen conditions.
Numerous recent studies demonstrated that adaptation responses driven by nitrate/nitrogen are fine-tuned in concert with phytohormones, the endogenous signaling molecules that coordinate nearly every aspect of plant growth and development. Hormone metabolite profiling [10][13][14][15][16], as well as a spectrum of omics approaches [17][18][19][20][21] clearly indicated close interactions between hormonal regulatory networks and pathways controlling nitrogen status. The expression of genes involved in biosynthesis, metabolism, transport, or signal transduction of plant hormones such as auxin, cytokinin, ethylene, abscisic acid, and gibberellins are rapidly modulated in plants exposed to fluctuating nitrogen conditions. NIN-like protein 7 (NLP7), the nitrate master regulator [18][20][22][23] and a recently reported intracellular nitrate sensor [24], was found to regulate components of hormonal regulatory networks [18][20][23][25]. NRT1.1, a well-established nitrate transceptor, was shown to adjust levels and distribution of auxin to low nitrate levels by regulating its biosynthesis and transport [26][27][28]. The inhibitory effects of excessive nitrate supply on root growth and branching were associated with an increase in abscisic acid and ethylene biosynthesis via increased expression of the corresponding biosynthetic genes such as ABA1, ABA2, and ABA3 [29] and ACS [10]. These examples demonstrate that plant hormones are important endogenous integrators and translators of nitrogen status to plant adaptive responses.

2. The Role of Auxin in Nitrate-Regulated Plant Growth and Development

Auxins are a group of naturally occurring molecules derived from tryptophan, with indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) being the major form of auxin. The biosynthesis of IAA is defined by a two-step metabolic pathway, in which the TAA family of aminotransferases converts tryptophan (Trp) to indole-3-pyruvate (IPA), followed by a YUC flavin monooxygenases-mediated conversion of IPA to IAA [30].
Auxin has extensive regulatory functions in plant development, including tropic responses, embryogenesis, and postembryonic initiation and formation of organs [31][32][33]. The auxin signal transduction cascade is activated by the hormone-triggered interaction of the auxin receptor SCFTIR1/AFB E3 ubiquitin ligase with Aux/IAA signaling repressors, which leads to the latter’s polyubiquitination and degradation by the proteasome. Consequently, transcription factors of the Auxin Response Factor (ARF) family are relieved from inhibition by Aux/IAAs and transcription of auxin-responsive genes is promoted [34].
In Arabidopsis, there are 23 ARFs displaying differential affinities to members of the Aux/IAA repressor family, which encompasses 29 homologues [34][35]. Variable homo- and hetero-oligomerizations of Aux/IAAs may provide an additional mechanism for the diversity of the auxin response [35][36].
Beyond the canonical auxin signal transduction cascade, revolving around TIR1/AFB-Aux/IAA-ARF, observations of auxin-triggered rapid non-transcriptional growth responses suggest another auxin receptor/sensor might operate in planta [37][38]. Recently, ABP1 and the auxin signaling proteins of the transmembrane kinase (TMK) family were shown to interact with plasma membrane H+-ATPases, inducing their phosphorylation and thereby promoting cell wall acidification and rapid elongation of hypocotyl cells in Arabidopsis [39][40][41].
Besides auxin metabolism, perception and signal transduction, the tightly controlled transport machinery is another key component of the regulatory system determining the biological activity of auxin. In higher plants, auxin is transported from young leaves to roots via the phloem vasculature [42]. This long-distance auxin transport is complemented by polar auxin transport (PAT), mediating cell-to-cell transport of the hormone [43][44]. This slower mode of auxin transport depends on active auxin influx and efflux between cells and is of great biological importance as it enables the directional movement of auxin as well as distribution gradients across tissues and organs. PAT is mediated by several families of membrane transporters including AUX1/LIKE AUX (AUX/LAX), PIN-FORMED(PIN), PIN-LIKES (PILS), and ATB Binding Cassette B (ABCB) [26][45][46][47][48].
Considering the importance of auxin in plant growth, developmental and physiological processes, it is not surprising that the investigation of its role in adaptation to nitrogen sources and in particular to nitrate availability has become one of the major research foci over the last decades. Early experiments conducted in the 1930s and 1940s showed that the auxin content in shoots of Brassica caulorapa and other species is dependent on the amount of supplied nitrate [49]. Since then, numerous works have pointed out that auxin biosynthesis, transport and signaling pathways are important mechanisms underlying plant growth and developmental adaptation to varying levels and sources of nitrogen [5][15][26][27][28][50][51][52]. A study by Ma et al. [53] showed that expression of key components of auxin biosynthesis including tryptophan aminotransferase 1 (TAR1), TAR2, and their close homologs TAA1 is regulated by nitrogen availability. Among them, TAR2 was found to play a critical function in maintaining auxin levels and fine-tuning lateral root outgrowth under mild nitrogen-limiting conditions [53]. TAR2 expression is controlled by NRT1.1, which acts as a negative regulator under nitrate depletion conditions. The suppression of TAR2 transcription is abolished either by the provision of nitrate or in nrt1.1 mutant [27]. Collectively, these studies demonstrate how nitrate contributes to fine-tuning lateral root outgrowth and adjusting it to fluctuating nitrate availability via TAR2-mediated biosynthesis of auxin in the root stele.
Identification of several components of the PAT machinery including PIN1, PIN2, PIN4 and PIN7 in the nitrate-responsive transcriptome suggested that the distribution of auxin in the plant body is controlled by nitrate [21]. This conclusion has been confirmed by Maghiaoui et al. [27], who demonstrated that mRNA levels of PIN1, PIN4, PIN7, but also ABCB4, ABCB19 auxin transporters are modulated by nitrate—independently of NRT1.1 perception however, thus raising a question about the molecular bases of this regulatory network. Nitrate-regulated transcription of auxin influx carriers such as AUX1 and LAX3 on the other hand, is dependent on NRT1.1 [27] and plays an important role in adjusting lateral root outgrowth to nitrate availability. Intriguingly, in addition to the well-established components of PAT such as PINs, AUX/LAX and ABCB transporters also NRT1.1, initially identified as a dual nitrate transporter, was found to transport auxin [26][54]. The auxin transport activity of NRT1.1 turned out to be particularly important for adjusting root branching to nitrate availability. Under low nitrate conditions, NRT1.1 transports auxin away from the tip of the lateral root primordium (LRP), which ultimately results in its developmental arrest [26]. Taken together, the NRT1.1 transceptor coordinates auxin-dependent development of LRPs via local control of auxin synthesis, redistribution of auxin in the primordium, and fine-tuning expression of LAX3 in the tissue overlying the LRP. There, the LAX3 influx driven accumulation of auxin controls cell wall loosening which allows the LRP to emerge through adjacent tissues (Figure 1A) [26][27][55][56].

Figure 1. Nitrate modulated auxin synthesis, transport, and signaling converge at regulation of the lateral root primordia (LRP) development and Primary root growth. (A) At low nitrate levels NRT1.1 controls the LRP development through transporting auxin and by suppressing TAR2-mediated auxin biosynthesis and LAX3-dependent influx of auxin to cells adjacent to the LRP. The nitrate-dependent expression of the auxin receptor AFB3 is part of the regulatory module controlling LRP development. Under optimal nitrate conditions AFB3 mediates the expression of NAC4 and OBP4 transcription factors, while nitrate metabolite-induced expression of miR393 suppresses AFB3, thus providing a negative feedback loop. (B) Nitrogen source-dependent phosphorylation of PIN2 determines the membrane localization of this auxin transporter in epidermal and cortex cells at the primary root (transition zone depicted). The fine-tuning of PIN2 levels at the plasma membrane regulates the auxin flux between two adjacent tissue layers (yellow arrows), thereby coordinating cell elongation patterns (Modified from [5]).
Global scale proteome and phosphoproteome analyses in Arabidopsis revealed that nitrate provision to nitrogen starved plants triggers rapid changes in protein phosphorylation [19]. Among those proteins whose phosphorylation status is altered in response to nitrate provision, the PIN2 auxin transporter was recovered. Nitrate-specific PIN2 phosphorylation sites were shown to determine the membrane localization of this auxin transporter in epidermal and cortex cells at the root apical meristem. The fine-tuning of PIN2 levels at the plasma membrane by nitrate coordinates the auxin distribution between two adjacent cell files and thereby primary root growth. Hence, posttranslational regulation of auxin transport by nitrate enables the altering of auxin fluxes to rapidly modulate root growth. However, the kinases and phosphatases involved in this process are yet to be identified (Figure 1B) [5][19].
The canonical nitrate signaling cascade involves NRT1.1-mediated activation of calcium-dependent signaling via calcium dependent protein kinases CPK10, CPK30, and CPK32, which phosphorylate and activate NLP7, the nitrate sensor and master regulator of the nitrate response [20][22][23][24][25]. Notably, another member of the CPK family, CPK29, was found to interact with PIN1 and PIN3 auxin transporters. This interaction promotes PIN1-polarization to the periclinal membranes of cells in the LRP and establishment of the auxin maximum at its tip. While this work links CPK29 function to fine-tuning PIN-mediated transport of auxin, its induction by nitrate, similarly to other CPKs, remains to be tested [57].
At the level of auxin perception and signaling, the AUXIN SIGNALING F-BOX 3 receptor (AFB3) is a key component of the network integrating auxin and nitrate signaling to control root system adaptations to nitrate availability. AFB3 expression is induced by nitrate in NRT1.1 transport-dependent manner and repressed by nitrate metabolites through feedback inhibition regulated by miR393 [7][8]. Downstream of AFB3, the transcription factors NAC4 and OBP4 mediate nitrate-regulated lateral root development [7][8] (Figure 1).
