摘要： Isoflavonoids, secondary metabolites derived from the phenylalanine pathway, are predominantly biosynthesized in legumes, especially soybean (Glycine max). They are not only essential for plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses but also beneficial to human health. In this study, we report that light signaling controls isoflavonoid biosynthesis in soybean. Blue -light photoreceptors (GmCRY1s, GmCRY2s, GmPHOT1s, and GmPHOT2s) and the transcription factors GmSTF1 and GmSTF2 promote isoflavonoid accumulation, whereas the E3 ubiquitin ligase GmCOP1b negatively regulates isoflavonoid biosynthesis. GmPHOT1s and GmPHOT2s stabilize GmSTF1/2, whereas GmCOP1b promotes the degradation of these two proteins in soybean. GmSTF1/2 regulate the expression of approximately 27.9% of the genes involved in soybean isoflavonoid biosynthesis, including GmPAL2.1, GmPAL2.3, and GmUGT2. They also repress the expression of GmBBX4, a negative regulator of isoflavonoid biosynthesis in soybean. In addition, GmBBX4 physically interacts with GmSTF1 and GmSTF2 to inhibit their transcriptional activation activity toward target genes related to isoflavonoid biosynthesis. Thus, GmSTF1/2 and GmBBX4 form a negative feedback loop that acts downstream of photoreceptors in the regulation of isoflavonoid biosynthesis. Our study provides novel insights into the control of isoflavonoid biosynthesis by light signaling in soybean and will contribute to the breeding of soybean cultivars with high isoflavonoid content through genetic and metabolic engineering.
