# 22 Abstract


23 Soil salinity inhibits plant growth, in part, by restricting the availability of essential


24 mineral nutrients such as iron (Fe). Although Fe deficiency frequently coincides with


25 salt stress in the field, the molecular mechanisms integrating Fe homeostasis with salt


26 tolerance remain largely unknown. Here, we identify the Fe deficiency response


27 regulator bHLH121 as a key coordinator of salt tolerance in Arabidopsis. Loss-of

28 function mutants of bHLH121 exhibit pronounced hypersensitivity to salt stress, with


29 severely impaired primary root elongation and reduced seedling biomass.


30 Transcriptomic and histochemical analyses reveal that bHLH121 is required to


31 maintain reactive oxygen species (ROS) homeostasis specifically in root tips under salt


32 stress. We further demonstrate that _CATALASE 2_ ( _CAT2_ ) is a direct downstream target


33 of bHLH121, and that _CAT2_ overexpression fully rescues the salt hypersensitivity of


34 the _bhlh121_ mutant. Importantly, this bHLH121 – CAT2 module operates independently


35 of the classical SOS pathway, as _sos2 bhlh121_ double mutants display additive salt


36 sensitivity. Together, our findings uncover a novel regulatory module in which


37 bHLH121 governs root tip redox homeostasis through CAT2 to confer salt tolerance,


38 providing a direct mechanistic link between the Fe regulatory network and abiotic stress


39 resilience in plants.

# 44 1 Introduction


45 Soil salinization is one of the major abiotic constraints limiting crop productivity


46 worldwide. The damage imposed by salt stress on plants is multifaceted, and disruption


47 of cellular ionic homeostasis is particularly critical (Mittler et al., 2022; Yang et al.,


48 2018; Zhou et al., 2024). In the model plant _Arabidopsis thaliana_, one of the central


49 mechanisms underlying salt stress responses is the SOS (Salt Overly Sensitive)


50 signaling pathway (Ma et al., 2026). This pathway comprises the calcium sensor SOS3,


51 the protein kinase SOS2, and the plasma membrane Na &#91;+&#93; /H &#91;+&#93; antiporter SOS1. Upon salt


52 stress, cytosolic Ca &#91;2+&#93; signals are perceived by SOS3, which recruits and activates SOS2;


53 the SOS3–SOS2 complex then phosphorylates and activates SOS1, driving Na &#91;+&#93; efflux


54 and maintaining cellular Na &#91;+&#93; /K &#91;+&#93; balance. The discovery of the SOS pathway laid the


55 foundation for understanding the molecular basis of plant salt tolerance, and the


56 functional conservation of its components has been documented in a wide range of crop


57 species.


58 However, the deleterious effects of salt stress are not restricted to ionic imbalance


59 (van Zelm et al., 2020; Yang et al., 2018). A common metabolic consequence is the


60 overaccumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which cause oxidative damage to


61 proteins, DNA, and membrane lipids (Mittler et al., 2022; Yang et al., 2018; Zhou et


62 al., 2024). Under salt stress, stomatal closure restricts CO 2 availability, and


63 photosystems are directly damaged, leading to over-reduction of the photosynthetic


64 electron transport chain. This promotes substantial electron leakage to O 2, generating


65 superoxide anions (O 2 &#91;•−&#93; ) within chloroplasts (Castro et al., 2021; Miller et al., 2010;


66 van Zelm et al., 2020). Parallel disruption of mitochondrial respiration further


67 contributes to O 2 &#91;•−&#93; production via electron leakage under ionic imbalance. Apoplastic


68 ROS generation is simultaneously enhanced through the activation of NADPH oxidases


69 (RBOHs). Critically, this elevated ROS production coincides with a compromised


70 antioxidant system, in which suppression of key enzymes such as catalase (CAT)


71 dampens hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) scavenging capacity. Together, these disruptions


72 overwhelm cellular redox homeostasis, leading to oxidative damage and the


73 progression of stress injury. Therefore, the establishment of salt tolerance depends not


74 only on the maintenance of ionic homeostasis but also on the precise control of redox


75 homeostasis.


76 Iron (Fe) occupies a particularly important position within this redox regulatory


77 network. As a cofactor for numerous enzymes involved in photosynthesis, respiration,

78 and redox reactions, Fe is essential for plant growth and development (Briat et al., 2015;


79 Li et al., 2022). Consequently, misregulation of Fe metabolism under stress conditions


80 can exacerbate ROS production and lead to oxidative damage (Gupta et al., 2024;


81 Hansch et al., 2009). In saline soils, high pH and competitive effects of Na &#91;+&#93; often impair


82 Fe acquisition, creating a combined “salt stress–Fe deficiency” scenario. Notably,


83 multiple lines of evidence demonstrate that Fe deficiency-responsive genes can


84 simultaneously influence Fe nutrition and salt tolerance. The Fe deficiency- responsive


85 gene _Femu2_ was reported to be induced by both iron deficiency and salt stress in


86 _Chlamydomonas reinhardtii_ ; its overexpression significantly enhanced salt tolerance,


87 whereas silencing increased salt sensitivity, accompanied by decreased proline and


88 soluble sugar contents and elevated MDA levels (Li et al., 2017). The apple bHLH


89 transcription factor MxbHLH18 was shown to be induced by both salt and Fe stresses,


90 and its overexpression in _Arabidopsis_ enhanced tolerance to salt, high Fe, and low Fe,


91 with increased SOD, POD, and CAT activities, reduced MDA, H 2 O 2, and O 2 &#91;•−&#93; contents,


92 and upregulated expression of both salt-responsive and iron-responsive genes (Liang et


93 al., 2022). Most recently, the soybean ferritin gene _GmFER1_ was demonstrated to


94 enhance salt tolerance through a coordinated “Fe–antioxidant–ion homeostasis”


95 regulatory network: overexpression of _GmFER1_ promoted Fe &#91;3+&#93; accumulation,


96 enhanced SOD and CAT activities, and upregulated _GmSOS1_ -mediated Na &#91;+&#93; efflux,


97 while simultaneously improving yield through enhanced photosynthetic efficiency and


98 Rubisco activity (Zhang et al., 2025). Collectively, these findings demonstrate that Fe


99 homeostasis components can coordinately regulate both Fe nutrition and salt tolerance


100 across diverse plant species, suggesting an intrinsic link between the Fe homeostasis


101 regulatory network and salt stress responses. However, the molecular mechanism by


102 which the Fe regulatory machinery participates in the maintenance of redox


103 homeostasis under salt stress remains largely unclear.


104 In _Arabidopsis_, the core transcriptional network governing Fe homeostasis is


105 orchestrated by basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors (Gao et al., 2024).


106 FIT, the master regulator of Fe acquisition, forms heterodimers with subgroup Ib bHLH


107 proteins including bHLH38/39/100/101 to orchestrate the Fe deficiency response


108 (Colangelo et al., 2004). This module is positively regulated by upstream subgroup IVc


109 bHLH factors, including bHLH34, bHLH104, ILR3/bHLH105, and bHLH115 (Li et al.,


110 2016; Liang et al., 2017; Wang et al., 2013; Yuan et al., 2008; Zhang et al., 2015).


111 Notably, the Upstream Regulator of IRT1 (URI)/bHLH121 emerges as a central,


112 bridging factor that physically interacts with bHLH IVc proteins and facilitates the

&#91;perpetuity. It is made available under a CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 International license.&#93;(http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/)


113 expression of _FIT_ and _bHLH38/39/100/101_ by bHLH IVc transcription factors (Gao et


114 al., 2024; Gao et al., 2020; Kim et al., 2019; Lei et al., 2020). This regulatory circuit is


115 negatively controlled by E3 ubiquitin ligases; BTS targets bHLH IVc factors for


116 degradation (Selote et al., 2015), while BTSL1 and BTSL2 mediate FIT turnover


117 (Rodríguez-Celma et al., 2019).


118 The choice of bHLH121 as a focal point of this study was based on several lines of


119 evidence. First, bHLH121 occupies a central position in the Fe regulatory network,


120 serving as a key node connecting upstream signals to downstream responses. Second,


121 in peanut ( _Arachis hypogaea_ ), _AhbHLH121_ overexpression enhances antioxidant


122 enzyme activity and salt tolerance (Zhao et al., 2024). Similarly, bHLH121 was


123 identified as a transcription factor regulating the high-affinity K &#91;+&#93; transporter HAK5,


124 with its expression induced by both low K &#91;+&#93; and salt stress (Hong et al., 2013). Moreover,


125 bHLH121 (URI) acts as an essential component of the Fe deficiency signaling pathway


126 (Kim et al., 2019). Through re-analysis of the ChIP-seq data from Kim et al. (2019), we


127 found that the direct binding targets of bHLH121 include ROS-related genes,


128 suggesting a potential link between bHLH121 and redox regulation. Overall, these


129 findings suggest that bHLH121 may act as a critical hub coordinating Fe homeostasis


130 and salt stress responses. However, the function of bHLH121 in _Arabidopsis_ salt stress


131 responses has not been reported, and whether and how it contributes to salt tolerance


132 through the regulation of redox homeostasis remains to be elucidated.


133 To address this, we assessed the expression profile of _bHLH121_ and confirmed its


134 salt responsiveness. Consistently, _bhlh121_ loss-of-function mutants displayed


135 hypersensitivity, with substantially reduced root elongation and lower seedling fresh


136 weight. Transcriptome profiling revealed that _bHLH121_ is required for the proper


137 expression of a suite of genes involved in redox homeostasis, and ROS staining


138 combined with pharmacological assays confirmed that bHLH121 regulates redox


139 homeostasis, specifically within root tips. Notably, overexpression of _CAT2_, a


140 representative H 2 O 2 -scavenging gene, rescued the salt hypersensitivity of the _bhlh121_


141 loss-of-function mutant, and bHLH121 was shown to bind the _CAT2_ promoter.


142 Collectively, these findings establish the bHLH121–CAT2 module as a crucial


143 regulator of redox homeostasis in plant resilience to salt stress.

146 _Arabidopsis thaliana_ ecotype Columbia-0 (Col-0) plants were used as the wild-type


147 (WT). The _sos2-T1_ mutant was described previously (Ma et al., 2025). The _bhlh121-7_


148 and _bhlh121-8_ mutants, the _pro35S::bHLH121:GFP/WT_ overexpression lines, and the


149 complemented lines including _probHLH121::gbHLH121:GFP/bhlh121-7,_


150 _pro35S::PtbHLH121:GFP/bhlh121-7,_ _pro35S::GsbHLH121:GFP/bhlh121-7,_


151 _pro35S::CcbHLH121:GFP/bhlh121-7,_ and _pro35S::CsbHLH121:GFP/bhlh121-7_ )


152 were generated as described (Zhou et al., 2026). The _sos2-T1_ and _bhlh121-7_ mutants


153 were crossed to generate the _sos2 bhlh121_ double mutant.


154 _Arabidopsis_ seeds were sterilized by washing first with 75% ethanol for 3 min,


155 followed by 0.5% (v/v) NaClO solution containing 0.5% (v/v) Tween 20 for 10 min,


156 and finally rinsing five times with sterile deionized water. After stratification at 4 °C


157 for 2 d, sterilized seeds were sown on ES medium (Estelle et al., 1987) and grown in a


158 greenhouse under a 22 °C under a 16-h light ( _c._ 100 μmol·m &#91;-2&#93; - s &#91;-1 &#93; over the waveband


159 400–700 nm) /8-h dark photoperiod at 20 °C.


160 The ES medium contained 5 mM KNO 3, 2 mM Ca(NO 3 ) 2 - 4H 2 O, 2 mM


161 MgSO 4 - 7H 2 O, 2.5 mM KH 2 PO 4, 40 μM Fe(III)-EDTA, 14 μM MnCl 2 - 4H 2 O, 70 μM


162 H 3 BO 3, 1 μM ZnSO 4 - 7H 2 O, 0.5 μM CuSO 4 - 5H 2 O, 0.2 μM NaMoO 4 - 2H 2 O, and 10 μM


163 NaCl, and was used as the control treatment. For salt stress treatments, NaCl was added


164 at 75, 100, or 150 mM. For pharmacological treatments, diethyldithiocarbamic acid


165 (DIECA) at 25, 50, and 100 μM was used to inhibit jasmonic acid (JA) biosynthesis,


166 while indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) at 10, 50, and 100 nM was applied to simulate auxin


167 effects. Additionally, 500 μM potassium iodide (KI) and 200 μM glutathione (GSH)


168 were supplemented as ROS scavengers to alleviate oxidative stress. All media


169 contained 1% sucrose (w/v), 0.1% MES (w/v), and 0.8% agar (w/v), with the pH


170 adjusted to 5.5.


171 **2.2 Plasmid construction and generation of transgenic plants**

172 The full-length coding sequence of _CAT2_ was amplified by PCR and cloned into the


173 modified binary vector _pCAMBIA1300-GFP_, driven by the cauliflower mosaic virus


174 (CaMV) 35S promoter. The resulting recombinant plasmid _pro35S::CAT2:GFP_ was


175 transformed into _Agrobacterium_ strain GV3101. Subsequently, _Arabidopsis_ plants


176 were transformed using the floral dip method. T0 transgenic seeds were screened on


177 half-strength Murashige &amp; Skoog medium containing 25 mg L **&#91;–&#93;** &#91;1&#93; hygromycin. Three


178 independent stable lines were selected for further analyses. Primers are listed in


179 Supplementary Table S1.

180 **2.3 Root length and fresh weight analyses**

181 For the root elongation and fresh weight assays, _Arabidopsis_ seeds were germinated


182 and grown vertically on ES medium with or without NaCl supplementation. After 10 d


183 of cultivation in a greenhouse, seedlings were photographed to document their


184 phenotypes. Primary root lengths were quantified from at least 20 seedlings per


185 biological replicate using ImageJ software (National Institutes of Health, USA). Fresh


186 weight was determined from pools of 10 seedlings. All experiments included three


187 biological replicates, and representative data from one replicate are shown in the figures.


188 **2.4 Measurement of chlorophyll content**


189 Chlorophyll was extracted from _Arabidopsis_ shoots with 80% acetone in the dark until


190 tissues were fully bleached. The absorbance of the supernatant was read at 645 and 663


191 nm on a SpectraMax Plus 384 spectrophotometer (Molecular Devices). Total


192 chlorophyll was quantified as (20.2 × A645 + 8.02 × A663) × V/FW and expressed in


193 mg·g &#91;-1&#93; FW, as described previously (Arnon, 1949).


194 **2.5 Proline and malondialdehyde (MDA) assays**

195 Measurements were performed as described (Hodges et al., 1999), with minor


196 modifications. Briefly, seeds were sown on medium with or without 75 mM NaCl and


197 grown for 10 d, after which shoot and root tissues were harvested separately. Crude


198 protein extracts were prepared using 100 mM PBS (pH 7.8).


199 For proline determination, 150 µL of crude protein extract was mixed with 1 mL of


200 reaction solution containing 0.75% (w/v) sulfosalicylic acid, 25% (v/v) glacial acetic


201 acid, and 1.25% (w/v) acid ninhydrin, prepared in 100 mM PBS (pH 7.0). The mixture


202 was incubated in a boiling water bath for 15 min, and absorbance was measured at 520


203 nm using a spectrophotometer. Proline content was calculated based on a proline


204 standard curve.


205 For MDA measurement, 100 µL of crude protein extract was added to 1 mL of 0.25%


206 thiobarbituric acid solution prepared in 10% trichloroacetic acid. After boiling for 15


207 min, absorbance was measured at 532 nm and 600 nm. MDA content was calculated


208 using the formula: MDA (nmol·g **&#91;–&#93;** &#91;1&#93; FW) = (A532-A600) × Vr × (V/Vt)/155 × 1000/


209 FW, where Vr is the total volume of the reaction mixture, V is the total volume of the


210 protein extract, Vt is the volume of protein extract used in the assay, and FW is the


211 sample fresh weight.

212 **2.6 Electrolyte leakage assay**

213 The electrolyte leakage (EL) assay was performed as described previously (Panter et


214 al., 2019) with modifications. Nine-day-old seedlings grown on ES medium were


215 transferred to fresh medium with or without 100 mM NaCl and grown for an additional


216 5 d. Shoots and roots were harvested separately for analysis. Briefly, 0.1 g of fresh


217 tissue was placed in a tube containing 5 mL of ultrapure water and shaken at room


218 temperature for 3 h. Initial conductivity (C1) was measured using a conductivity meter.


219 Samples were then boiled for 20 min, cooled to room temperature, and final


220 conductivity (C2) was measured. Relative electrolyte leakage was calculated as (C1/C2)


221 × 100%.


222 **2.7 Determination of Na** **&#91;+&#93;** **and K** **&#91;+&#93;** **content**

223 Nine-day-old seedlings grown on ES medium were transferred to medium


224 supplemented with 100 mM NaCl and treated for 5 d. Shoot and root tissues were then


225 harvested separately and dried in an oven at 65 °C. The dried tissues were digested with


226 concentrated nitric acid at 150 °C. Na &#91;+&#93; and K &#91;+&#93; contents were determined using a flame


227 photometer (FP6431, YOKE) as described previously (Karimi et al., 2021).


228 **2.8 Measurement of H** **2** **O** **2** **content and antioxidant enzyme activities**


229 The activities of catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD) and superoxide dismutase (SOD),


230 as well as the content of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ), were measured using commercially


231 available kits (Geruisi ‐ bio, G0105W, G0107W, G0101W, and G0168W, respectively).


232 Seven-day-old seedlings grown on ES medium were transferred to fresh medium with


233 or without 100 mM NaCl and grown for an additional 7 d. Roots were harvested for


234 analysis.


235 **2.9 Quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) analysis**

236 TRIzol reagent (Vazyme) was employed for total RNA extraction in accordance with


237 the manufacturer’s recommendations. Reverse transcription of 1 µg of RNA into cDNA


238 was carried out using the PrimeScript™ RT reagent Kit with gDNA Eraser (TaKaRa).


239 Following a 12-fold dilution, the cDNA products were used as templates for RT‑qPCR


240 on a PIKOREAL 96 platform (Thermo Fisher Scientific) with the SYBR® Premix Ex


241 Taq™ II (Tli RNaseH Plus) kit (TaKaRa). The amplification procedure was initiated at

245 Supplementary Table S1.


246 **2.10 Messenger RNA (mRNA)-seq and transcriptome analyses**

247 Seedlings were grown on ES medium with or without 100 mM NaCl. Total RNA was


248 extracted from the roots of 10-day-old seedlings. mRNA-seq was performed by


249 Novogene Bioinformatics Technology Co., Ltd. (Beijing, China) and sequenced on a


250 NovaSeq 6000 platform (Illumina) to generate 150-bp paired-end reads. Data analysis


251 was performed as described previously with minor modifications (Xue et al., 2021).


252 Briefly, clean data were obtained by removing reads containing adapters, reads with a


253 high proportion of uncertain bases (≥10%) and low-quality reads from the raw data.


254 The clean reads were then mapped to the _Arabidopsis_ Araport11 reference genome


255 (Cheng et al., 2017) using HISAT2, and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were


256 identified using Cufflinks. Significantly up- and down-regulated DEGs were filtered by


257 fold change &gt; 1.5 and q value &lt; 0.05. Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analyses and


258 heatmaps of gene expression profiles were generated using the OmicShare tools


259 platform (http://www.omicshare.com/tools).


260 **2.11 DAB and NBT staining**

261 Diaminobenzidine (DAB) and nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) were used for in situ


262 staining of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) and superoxide anions (O 2 &#91;•&#93; **&#91;−&#93;** ) in seedlings,


263 respectively (Dai et al., 2022). Seedlings were incubated in DAB staining solution (1


264 mg·mL &#91;−1&#93;, pH 5.8) or NBT staining solution (0.5 mg·mL &#91;−1&#93;, pH 7.6) for 60 min or 30


265 min, respectively, followed by the removal of the staining solution and three rinses with


266 deionized water. Then, 1 mL of anhydrous ethanol was added for decolorization. After


267 decolorization was complete, seedlings were observed and photographed under a Zeiss


268 Stemi 305 microscope. DAB and NBT intensities were acquired in ImageJ using the


269 segmented line tool, with line thickness sufficient to cover half the width of the root.


270 Staining was quantified based on the gray values of linear ROIs.


271 **2.12 Measurement of root apical meristem size**

272 The root apical meristem was determined as previously described (Dello Ioio et al.,


273 2007). In brief, seedlings were grown vertically on the indicated medium, and roots of


274 10-day-old seedlings were imaged using a confocal laser scanning microscope


275 (STELLARIS 5, Leica). Before imaging, roots were stained with propidium iodide (PI)


276 for 10 min. PI fluorescence was detected using excitation with an argon laser at 488

277 nm, with an emission filter set between 633 and 695 nm. Cortex cells were counted


278 from the QC to the first elongated cell to determine meristem cell number and length.


279 **2.13 Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA)**


280 EMSA was carried out using the Chemiluminescent EMSA Kit (Beyotime, China)


281 according to the manufacturer’s protocol. The recombinant bHLH121 protein was


282 expressed in _E. coli_ and purified as described previously (Zhou et al., 2026). The DNA


283 fragments of the _CAT2_ promoter were synthesized and labeled with biotin at their 5′


284 ends. Unlabeled probes, either identical or mutated in sequence, were included as


285 specific competitors, and a 6xHis-tagged trigger factor (His-TF) protein preparation


286 from _E. coli_ transformed with the empty vector was used as the negative control. Probes


287 used in these assays are listed in Supplementary Table S1.


288 **2.14 Statistical analysis**

289 All data are presented as means ± standard deviation (SD). Statistical analyses and


290 graph generation were performed using GraphPad Prism 9.5. Differences between two


291 groups were assessed using Student’s t-test, with asterisks indicating significance (* _P_


292 &lt; 0.05, ** _P_ &lt; 0.01, *** _P_ &lt; 0.001, **** _P_ &lt; 0.0001). For multiple comparisons, one

293 way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc test was performed, with different letters


294 indicating significant differences ( _P_ &lt; 0.05). Each experiment included at least three


295 independent biological replicates.

# 305 3 Results


306 **3.1 Loss of function** _**bhlh121**_ **mutations lead to salt hypersensitivity in**

307 _**Arabidopsis**_


308 To investigate whether _bHLH121_ is involved in plant salt stress tolerance, we first


309 analyzed its expression in response to NaCl treatment. These analyses identified


310 bHLH121 as a candidate salt-responsive gene, as its expression was significantly


311 induced by salt stress in a dose- and time-dependent manner (Supplementary Fig. S1).


312 We previously generated two CRISPR-Cas9-mediated knockout mutants in the WT


313 background, designated _bhlh121-7_ and _bhlh121-8_ ; these mutants exhibit severe growth


314 defects and impaired Fe deficiency-responsive gene expression under Fe depletion


315 (Zhou et al., 2026). To dissect the functional role of bHLH121 in salt tolerance, we


316 germinated these two mutants and examined their growth phenotypes at 75, 100, and


317 150 mM NaCl. Both mutants displayed salt hypersensitivity, as evidenced by


318 significantly reduced root elongation (Supplementary Fig. S2). Because both mutants


319 exhibited similar salt-sensitive phenotypes, we selected _bhlh121-7_ as a representative


320 mutant for subsequent analyses.


321 A native promoter-driven bHLH121-GFP fusion protein successfully restored root


322 growth and biomass in the _bhlh121-7_ mutant under salt stress (Supplementary Fig. S3),


323 validating the functionality of bHLH121-GFP and confirming that _bHLH121_ loss is


324 causal for the salt-sensitive phenotype. Intriguingly, although the loss-of-function


325 _bhlh121-7_ mutant displayed pronounced salt sensitivity, 35S promoter-driven


326 overexpression of _bHLH121_ in WT plants failed to enhance salt tolerance, as no


327 significant differences in root growth or biomass were observed compared to WT (Fig.


328 1A–C). These results support the notion that _bHLH121_ function is indispensable for


329 salt stress tolerance in _Arabidopsis_ .


330 To explore the physiological mechanisms underlying _bhlh121_ -associated salt


331 sensitivity, we first quantified proline accumulation, a stress tolerance indicator (Dai et


332 al., 2018), in salt-stressed seedlings. Although proline content increased in both WT

333 and _bhlh121-7_ mutant, shoot and root proline levels in _bhlh121-7_ were significantly


334 lower than in WT under salt stress (Fig. 1D, E), pointing to a potential mechanism


335 responsible for the mutant’s sensitive phenotype. To assess whether _bHLH121_


336 contributes to antioxidant defense against salts, we measured the malondialdehyde


337 (MDA) content and electrolyte leakage (EL), indicators of oxidative damage (Liu et al.,


338 2021b). MDA induction by NaCl was more pronounced in roots than shoots in both


339 WT and _bhlh121-7_ ; nevertheless, MDA levels were significantly higher in _bhlh121-7_


340 than WT in both tissues (Fig. 1 F, G). Consistently, EL was triggered by salt stress, with


341 shoot EL higher in _bhlh121-7_ than WT under both control and NaCl treatments (Fig.


342 1H, I).


343 As ion homeostasis is a major determinant of salt tolerance (Motte et al., 2019; van


344 Zelm et al., 2020) and bHLH121 is crucial for regulating metal ion transporters (Gao et


345 al., 2020; Kim et al., 2019; Lei et al., 2020), we analyzed Na &#91;+&#93; and K &#91;+&#93; concentrations


346 and Na &#91;+&#93; /K &#91;+ &#93; ratios in salt-stressed seedlings. In control groups, no obvious differences


347 in basal Na &#91;+&#93; and K &#91;+&#93; levels were observed under standard growth conditions in either


348 shoots or roots. By contrast, salt treatment dramatically elevated Na &#91;+&#93; levels and reduced


349 K &#91;+&#93; levels in all samples (Fig. 1J–M). Compared with WT, Na &#91;+ &#93; accumulation and K &#91;+ &#93;


350 reduction were more pronounced in shoots, whereas no significant changes were


351 observed in roots. Consequently, Na &#91;+&#93; /K &#91;+ &#93; ratios in shoots, but not in roots, were slightly


352 increased in _bhlh121-7_ (Fig. 1N, O).


353 Collectively, these findings demonstrate that the salt stress sensitivity of _bhlh121-7_


354 roots is due to impaired proline induction and increased MDA contents, whereas


355 significantly increased EL and disrupted Na⁺/K⁺ homeostasis were detected in shoots.


356 Therefore, the _bhlh121-7_ mutation appears to impair the plant antioxidant response,


357 especially in roots.


358 **3.2 bHLH121 and SOS2 function in parallel pathways in salt tolerance**


359 Although bHLH121 is a key transcription factor regulating Fe homeostasis, its role in


360 plant salt tolerance has not been previously reported in _Arabidopsis_ . To investigate the


&#91;bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.64898/2026.11.02.763515; this version posted November 4, 2026. The copyright holder for this&#93;(https://doi.org/10.64898/2026.11.02.763515)

361 underlying mechanism, we examined the genetic relationship between the bHLH121

362 mediated salt tolerance pathway and the classical SOS pathway by generating a


363 _bhlh121-7 sos2-T1_ double mutant through genetic crossing. Under normal growth


364 conditions, the _bhlh121-7_ and _sos2-T1_ single mutants and the _bhlh121-7 sos2-T1_


365 double mutant showed no obvious growth defects (Fig. 2A). By contrast, when grown


366 on ES medium supplemented with NaCl at a concentration as low as 25 mM, the _sos2-_


367 _T1_ single mutant displayed a pronounced salt-sensitive phenotype, characterized by


368 significant inhibition of primary root elongation (Fig. 2A), consistent with previous


369 reports (Ma et al., 2025). The _bhlh121-7_ single mutant was less salt-sensitive than _sos2-_


370 _T1_ (Fig. 2A). Importantly, the primary root length of the _bhlh121-7 sos2-T1_ double


371 mutant was significantly shorter than that of WT and was also substantially shorter than


372 that of either single mutant (Fig. 2A, B). Consistently, the fresh weight and chlorophyll


373 content of the double mutant were lower than those of the two single mutants (Fig. 2C,


374 D). This additive effect suggests that bHLH121 and SOS2 may act in parallel genetic


375 pathways to modulate salt stress responses. To further test this hypothesis, we examined


376 _SOS1_ expression, a key downstream gene in the SOS pathway, under salt stress. NaCl


377 treatment induced significantly higher _SOS1_ expression in the _bhlh121-7 sos2-T1_


378 double mutant than in WT plants. In contrast, _SOS1_ induction in the _bhlh121-7_ and


379 _sos2-T1_ single mutants was comparable to that in WT (Fig. 2E). These results suggest


380 that the enhanced salt sensitivity of the double mutant is accompanied by altered _SOS1_


381 regulation, consistent with bHLH121 and SOS2 acting in parallel pathways.


382 We also examined the phenotypes of the _bhlh121-7 sos2-T1_ double mutant grown on


383 low-Fe (0 μM Fe) medium. Introduction of the _sos2-T1_ mutation into the _bhlh121-7_


384 mutant did not cause obvious growth defects (Fig. 2A). Measurements of root length,


385 fresh weight, and chlorophyll content consistently showed that the _bhlh121-7 sos2-T1_


386 double mutant grew as well as the _bhlh121-7_ single mutant (Fig. 2B–D). Notably, _IRT1_


387 and _FRO2_, two marker genes for the Fe deficiency response, showed slightly reduced


388 expression in the double mutant compared with the _bhlh121-7_ single mutant (Fig. 2F,

389 G). These data suggest that bHLH121 and SOS2 do not have substantially overlapping


390 roles in the Fe deficiency response.


391 Taken together, these results suggest that loss of _bHLH121_ does not obviously impair


392 SOS pathway-mediated signaling output, consistent with the possibility that bHLH121


393 functions independently of the SOS pathway to confer salt tolerance.


394 **3.3 bHLH121 is crucial for ROS homeostasis and root growth under salt stress**


395 To determine whether ROS accumulation increased abnormally due to bHLH121


396 dysfunction, we first examined the effects of reduced glutathione (GSH) and potassium


397 iodide (KI), two H 2 O 2 scavengers, on salt stress-induced root growth inhibition.


398 Although substantial growth inhibition of _bhlh121-7_ seedlings was observed with both


399 500 μM KI and 200 μM GSH in the absence of NaCl (Fig. 3A, B), under salt stress both


400 KI and GSH restored root growth more effectively in _bhlh121-7_ than in WT, resulting


401 in root growth recovery with KI (WT, −6.1% vs. _bhlh121-7_, +9.5%) and with GSH


402 (WT, +4.4% vs. _bhlh121-7_, +10.0%) (Fig. 3A, C).


403 Since superoxide (O 2 &#91;•&#93; **&#91;−&#93;** ) and H 2 O 2 are two major ROS involved in root tip growth


404 under salt stress (Dang et al., 2025), their accumulation was detected using nitroblue


405 tetrazolium (NBT) staining for O 2 &#91;•&#93; **&#91;−&#93;** (Tsukagoshi et al., 2010) and 3,3′

406 diaminobenzidine (DAB) staining for H 2 O 2 (Daudi et al., 2012). In line with this, ROS


407 staining showed reduced H 2 O 2 accumulation in the presence of KI or GSH under salt


408 stress (Fig. 3D). Notably, O 2 &#91;•&#93; **&#91;−&#93;** levels indicated by NBT staining were comparable in


409 _bhlh121-7_ and WT under control conditions, whereas slight decreases were observed


410 in the mutant under NaCl treatment (Fig. 3D). Importantly, KI and GSH mitigated salt

411 induced perturbations in O 2 &#91;•&#93; **&#91;−&#93;** levels. Moreover, ROS homeostasis was also restored in


412 bHLH121 complementation lines (Supplementary Fig. S4). These results strongly


413 suggest that bHLH121 is crucial for maintaining ROS homeostasis in roots under high


414 salinity.


415 ROS spatiotemporal dynamics are vital for plant growth and stress responses. We


416 sought to determine whether ROS imbalance occurs shortly after exposure to high

417 salinity. To this end, we monitored ROS levels at 0, 3, 6, 12, and 24 h after NaCl


418 treatment in the roots of seedlings. Significant differences in O 2 &#91;•&#93; **&#91;−&#93;** and H 2 O 2 signal


419 intensities in root tips were observed after 6 h of salt treatment (Fig. 4). For O 2 &#91;•−&#93;, the


420 two peaks and one trough of NBT signals indicate maximum and minimum O 2 &#91;•−&#93; levels


421 across the root apical meristem. Salt treatment disrupted the O 2 &#91;•&#93; **&#91;−&#93;** distribution pattern in


422 both WT and the mutant (Fig. 4A–C). For DAB staining reflecting H 2 O 2 distribution,


423 peak signals were predominantly shifted toward the late meristem and elongation zone


424 in control plants (Fig. 4, D–F). Comparable H 2 O 2 signal intensities were captured in


425 WT, _bhlh121-7_, and bHLH121-complemented lines without NaCl (Fig. 4). In contrast,


426 after NaCl treatment, H 2 O 2 levels in the _bhlh121-7_ mutant were dramatically increased


427 and significantly higher than those in WT and salt-insensitive mutants (Fig. 4D–F). Salt


428 stress also triggered H 2 O 2 accumulation beyond the meristem and elongation zones (Fig.


429 4D–F). These results indicate that ROS balance is acutely disrupted in the _bhlh121-7_


430 mutant, with the O 2 &#91;•−&#93; / H 2 O 2 ratio significantly decreased compared with WT under salt


431 stress.


432 **3.4 bHLH121 is required for root apical meristem maintenance in salt-stressed**

433 **roots**


434 Since root apical meristem (RAM) size is a major determinant of root growth rate, we


435 reasoned that the markedly shorter roots of _bhlh121-7_ than of WT plants might result


436 from an impaired RAM. To test this possibility, we measured RAM size in salt-treated


437 _bhlh121-7_ plants. As expected, RAM size in salt-treated roots decreased by ~63.9% in


438 _bhlh121-7_ versus ~30.2% in WT (Fig. 5A–D), whereas the number of RAM cells


439 decreased by ~63.1% in _bhlh121-7_ vs. ~40.2% in WT (Fig. 5A, B, E, F). These results


440 suggest that bHLH121 plays an important role in RAM maintenance under salt stress.


441 Given that root apical meristem (RAM) size is determined by the O 2 &#91;•−&#93; to H 2 O 2 ratio


442 gradients in the root tip (Dang et al., 2025; Tsukagoshi, 2016), we suspected that the


443 rapid disruption of ROS balance negatively affected RAM size. To test whether


444 modifying oxidative conditions could restore WT-like salt tolerance and RAM size, we

445 treated the _bhlh121-7_ mutant with GSH and KI. Consistent with previous results (Fig.


446 3), both KI and GSH substantially alleviated salt stress-induced root growth inhibition


447 in _bhlh121-7_ . Notably, in WT plants, while KI and GSH slightly reduced RAM cell


448 number under control conditions, they had minimal impact on RAM size under salt


449 stress (Fig. 5A, C, E). Nevertheless, both chemicals effectively restored RAM length


450 and cell number, which were severely reduced by high salinity (Fig. 5B, D, F). We also


451 examined the expression levels of _PLETHORA1_ ( _PLT1_ ) and _PLT2_, two key genes


452 required for RAM maintenance (Aida et al., 2004). In agreement with our mRNA-seq


453 results, both genes were notably upregulated upon salt stress and displayed significantly


454 higher expression levels in _bhlh121-7_ than in WT (Fig. 5G, H), suggesting that


455 bHLH121 dysfunction alters the regulation of RAM maintenance genes.


456 Altogether, these findings suggest that loss of bHLH121 function results in ROS


457 imbalance in root tips, presumably exacerbating salt-induced root growth inhibition by


458 interfering with meristem maintenance.


459 **3.5 Transcriptome analyses support a role for bHLH121 in ROS homeostasis**

460 **under salt stress**


461 Based on the above results, we speculated that bHLH121 is required for maintaining


462 RAM size to sustain root growth under high salinity. To obtain molecular evidence, we


463 performed mRNA-seq on roots of 10-day-old seedlings grown in ES medium and


464 treated with or without 100 mM NaCl. Under control conditions, 207 differentially


465 expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in _bhlh121-7_ roots compared with WT,


466 comprising 157 upregulated and 50 downregulated genes (Supplementary Fig. S5;


467 Supplementary Table S2). Consistent with previously described mRNA-seq results for


468 _uri-1_ (Kim et al., 2019), Fe deficiency-responsive genes such as _FRO2_ and _IRT1_ were


469 remarkably downregulated in _bhlh121-7_ (Supplementary Fig. S5C). In contrast,


470 _IMA1/2_ and _bHLH100/101_ were substantially upregulated (Supplementary Fig. S5C),


471 likely reflecting a compensatory feedback response to the loss of bHLH121, which


472 phenocopies Fe deficiency (Wang et al., 2024).

473 For salt-responsive genes, 886 (377 upregulated and 509 downregulated) and 1374


474 (517 upregulated and 857 downregulated) DEGs were identified in WT and _bhlh121-7_


475 roots, respectively (Fig. 6A, B; Supplementary Tables S3 and S4). Gene Ontology (GO)


476 enrichment analyses revealed both overlapping (Supplementary Fig. S6) and specific


477 biological processes in WT and _bhlh121-7_ samples (Fig. 6C–F). For example, many


478 DEGs in both WT and _bhlh121-7_ roots are involved in stress, water deprivation,


479 hormone responses, hypoxia, cell wall organization or biogenesis, and defense


480 responses (Supplementary Fig. S6). In contrast, cell wall loosening, L-glutamate


481 transmembrane transport, and amino acid transport were the top enriched GO terms


482 specific to WT (Fig. 6C, D). In the _bhlh121-7_ mutant, jasmonic acid (JA) response,


483 suberin biosynthetic process, and xylem development were the most significantly


484 enriched biological processes (Fig. 6E, F).


485 Notably, DEGs associated with JA response were upregulated in _bhlh121-7_, whereas


486 genes involved in the hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) catabolic process were downregulated


487 in WT (Fig. 6C–F). Given that ROS homeostasis in _Arabidopsis_ roots is tightly


488 regulated during stress responses, these results align with our earlier physiological


489 analyses. We hypothesized that bHLH121 is required to suppress salt stress-induced


490 ROS bursts. This prompted us to investigate which genes in ROS metabolic pathways


491 were significantly changed in _bhlh121-7_ under salt stress. We first examined the


492 expression profiles of _RBOH_ genes, which encode ROS-producing enzymes that


493 generate superoxide anions (O 2 &#91;•−&#93; ) and H 2 O 2 in response to stress (Mittler et al., 2022).


494 Most _RBOH_ genes detected in our mRNA-seq data showed no obvious expression


495 changes, except for _RBOHD_ and _RBOHF_ (Supplementary Fig. S7A). Moreover, most


496 genes encoding superoxide dismutases (SODs; except FSD1) and peroxiredoxins


497 (PRXs) were upregulated in WT but showed impaired induction (e.g., PRX8) or even


498 downregulation in _bhlh121-7_ (Supplementary Fig. S7B).


499 To further validate their salt-induced responses, we performed qRT-PCR for the ROS


500 metabolic genes _RBOHD_, _PRX8_, and _CAT2_ (Fig. 6G–I). _CAT2_ was selected because of

501 its important role in H 2 O 2 scavenging under salt stress (Hu et al., 2026; Liu et al., 2025;


502 Zhuang et al., 2025). In the absence of NaCl, _RBOHD_ and _PRX8_ showed comparable


503 expression in _bhlh121-7_ and WT. After 10 days of salt treatment, _RBOHD_ was slightly


504 induced in _bhlh121-7_ relative to WT, whereas _PRX8_ induction was suppressed (Fig.


505 6G, H). In contrast, _CAT2_ expression was lower in _bhlh121-7_ than in WT under control


506 conditions, and NaCl had minimal effect on _CAT2_ expression in both genotypes (Fig.


507 6I). These results are in line with our transcriptome analyses, suggesting that loss of


508 bHLH121 impairs the regulation of key genes involved in ROS metabolism.


509 Collectively, these results suggest that bHLH121 mediates transcriptional adaptation


510 to salt stress. Specifically, antioxidant responses are upregulated by bHLH121 under


511 high salinity, suggesting an important role for bHLH121 in maintaining ROS


512 homeostasis during salt stress.


513 **3.6 Overexpression of** _**CAT2**_ **restore redox homeostasis and salt sensitivity of**

514 _**bhlh121**_ **mutant**


515 Since _CAT2_ was downregulated in the _bhlh121_ mutant (Fig. 6I) and was previously


516 identified as one of the binding targets of bHLH121 in planta by ChIP-seq (Kim et al.,


517 2019), we asked whether bHLH121 modulates ROS homeostasis by regulating _CAT2_


518 expression. To test this hypothesis, we first examined the direct binding of bHLH121


519 to the _CAT2_ promoter using an electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). As shown


520 in Fig. 7A, a biotin-labeled _CAT2_ promoter probe (Biotin- _CAT2_ ) formed a specific


521 protein–DNA complex with recombinant bHLH121, whereas no such shifted band was


522 detected when the His-TF tag protein was used as a negative control. The specificity of


523 this interaction was further confirmed by competition assays: the addition of excess


524 unlabeled probe (Cold- _CAT2_ ) effectively diminished the shifted band, whereas the


525 mutated probe with disrupted E-box motifs (Cold- _CAT2-m_ ) failed to compete for


526 binding, indicating that bHLH121 directly associates with the _CAT2_ promoter through


527 the E-box element.

528 To determine whether _CAT2_ acts genetically downstream of bHLH121 in mediating


529 salt tolerance, we generated transgenic lines overexpressing _CAT2_ under the control of


530 the 35S promoter in the _bhlh121-7_ mutant background ( _35S::CAT2_ / _bhlh121-7_ ). When


531 grown on ES medium supplemented with 100 mM NaCl for 10 d, the


532 _35S::CAT2/bhlh121-7_ transgenic lines showed significantly improved shoot and root


533 growth and greener leaves relative to the _bhlh121-7_ mutant (Fig. 7B). Quantitative


534 reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis confirmed that _CAT2_ transcript levels


535 were significantly elevated in the _35S::CAT2/bhlh121-7_ lines compared with both WT


536 and the _bhlh121-7_ mutant (Fig. 7C), confirming successful overexpression of _CAT2_ in


537 the tested transgenic lines. We further quantified physiological parameters to evaluate


538 the extent of phenotypic rescue. The results showed that the _35S::CAT2/bhlh121-7_ lines


539 largely restored root length and fresh weight to levels approaching those of WT plants


540 (Fig. 7D, E). In addition, chlorophyll content, which was substantially decreased in the


541 _bhlh121-7_ mutant due to stress-induced chlorosis, was significantly increased in the


542 _35S::CAT2/bhlh121-7_ plants (Fig. 7F). Notably, we also examined the phenotypes of


543 _35S::CAT2/bhlh121-7_ plants grown on ES medium under low-iron conditions (0 μM


544 Fe) for 10 d. Interestingly, unlike the rescue observed under salt stress, the


545 _35S::CAT2/bhlh121-7_ plants did not rescue the growth inhibition or leaf chlorosis of


546 the _bhlh121-7_ mutant under Fe-deficient conditions (Fig. 7B–F), suggesting that the


547 bHLH121–CAT2 module acts independently of Fe homeostasis.


548 To further corroborate that _CAT2_ overexpression alleviates the salt hypersensitivity


549 of the _bhlh121_ mutant by restoring ROS homeostasis, we first measured the H 2 O 2


550 content in roots. As expected, salt stress caused an increase in H 2 O 2 content, but no


551 significant difference was observed among WT, _bhlh121_ mutant, and


552 _35S::CAT2/bhlh121_ seedling roots (Fig. 8A). We then determined CAT activity in roots.


553 CAT activity increased under salt stress, but differences were observed among lines: it


554 was significantly reduced in the _bhlh121_ mutant, whereas overexpression of _CAT2_


555 restored the activity to WT levels in _35S::CAT2/bhlh121_ seedling roots (Fig. 8B). By

556 contrast, POD activity also increased under salt stress, but the differences among lines


557 were not significant, suggesting that POD may not be the main contributor to the salt


558 sensitivity of the _bhlh121_ mutant (Fig. 8C). Notably, SOD activity decreased under salt


559 stress, possibly due to the prolonged stress duration, and no difference was detected


560 among the tested lines (Fig. 8D). Together, these results support that CAT2 alleviates


561 the salt-sensitive root phenotype of the _bhlh121_ mutant by mitigating abnormal H 2 O 2


562 accumulation.


563 To monitor the distributions of superoxide anion (O 2 &#91;•–&#93; ) and hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 )


564 in root tips, NBT and DAB staining were performed, respectively. Consistent with


565 previous results (Figs. 3 and 4), no obvious differences in O 2 &#91;•–&#93; levels were detected


566 among the tested genotypes under either control or salt conditions (Fig. 9A–C). In


567 contrast, all three tested _35S::CAT2/bhlh121-7_ lines displayed substantially reduced


568 staining signals for salt-induced H 2 O 2, with levels comparable to those of WT plants


569 (Fig. 9D). Quantitative analysis of the gray values along linear regions of interest (ROIs)


570 extending 2 mm from the root tip further confirmed that _CAT2_ overexpression


571 effectively attenuated the salt-induced ROS burst in the _bhlh121-7_ mutant (Fig. 9E, F).


572 These results provide histochemical evidence that _CAT2_ overexpression restores ROS


573 homeostasis in the root tips of the _bhlh121_ mutant under salt stress.


574 Collectively, these results demonstrate that _CAT2_ overexpression potently rescues


575 the salt-sensitive phenotype of the _bhlh121_ mutant, supporting the notion that


576 bHLH121 functions upstream of _CAT2_ to regulate salt tolerance, at least in part, by


577 modulating ROS homeostasis through CAT2-mediated H 2 O 2 scavenging.


578 **3.7 Auxin and JA pathways are affected in the** _**bhlh121-7**_ **mutant**


579 ROS homeostasis is tightly associated with hormone signaling in multiple aspects of


580 plant stress responses. Apart from ROS homeostasis genes, comparative transcriptome


581 analysis under salt stress identified a set of upregulated genes specific to _bhlh121-7_ .


582 Among these, JA biosynthesis and signaling pathways were significantly enriched (Fig.


583 6E). Consistently, a number of genes involved in JA biosynthesis, metabolism, and

584 signaling were significantly upregulated in the _bhlh121-7_ mutant compared with WT


585 (Supplementary Fig. S8A). Furthermore, we observed a distinct expression pattern of


586 auxin-related genes, most of which were downregulated in the _bhlh121-7_ mutant


587 compared with WT (Supplementary Fig. S8B).


588 To determine whether JA and auxin signaling contribute to the reduced salt tolerance


589 of the _bhlh121-7_ mutant, we performed pharmacological tests using the JA biosynthesis


590 inhibitor DIECA (Farmer et al., 1994) and the auxin IAA. For the JA pathway, all tested


591 concentrations of exogenous DIECA (25, 50, and 100 μM) effectively enhanced root


592 growth of the _bhlh121-7_ mutant under salt stress, whereas in WT plants it had no effect


593 or was inhibitory at high concentrations (Fig. 10A–C). Similarly, for the auxin pathway,


594 all tested concentrations of exogenous IAA (10, 50, and 100 nM) suppressed root


595 growth in both the _bhlh121-7_ mutant and WT under control conditions, whereas they


596 significantly restored root growth in the _bhlh121-7_ mutant but not in WT under salt


597 stress (Fig.10D–F). We further examined the expression levels of three key genes


598 involved in JA signaling ( _JAZ1_ and _JAZ10_ ) (Liu et al., 2021a) and auxin homeostasis


599 ( _GH3.15_ ) (Sherp et al., 2018) in response to salt in the _bhlh121-7_ mutant. Consistent


600 with the transcriptome analyses, both _JAZ1_ and _JAZ10_ were strongly induced in salt

601 stressed _bhlh121-7_ but not in WT (Fig. 10G, H), suggesting that JA signaling is


602 activated in the _bhlh121-7_ mutant. Similarly, _GH3.15_ displayed much higher induction


603 in _bhlh121-7_ than in WT (Fig. 10I), supporting the notion that bHLH121 functions in


604 maintaining auxin homeostasis.


605 Overall, these findings suggest that bHLH121 is important for modulating both JA


606 signaling and auxin homeostasis under salt stress, thereby contributing to salt tolerance


607 in WT plants.


608 **3.8 Conserved function of bHLH121 in salt tolerance across several dicot species**


609 To assess the potential of bHLH121 for crop improvement, we investigated whether its


610 function in salt tolerance is conserved across several plant species. Putative bHLH121


611 homologs from _Populus trichocarpa_, _Glycine soja_, _Cucumis sativus_, and _Citrus_

612 _clementina_ were previously expressed in the _bhlh121-7_ mutant and showed conserved


613 function in the Fe deficiency response (Zhou et al., 2026). Using the same transgenic


614 plants, we tested whether overexpression of these bHLH121 homologous genes rescued


615 the salt hypersensitivity of the _bhlh121-7_ mutant. Indeed, all four genes substantially


616 rescued the salt-sensitive phenotypes in both roots (Fig. 11) and shoots (Supplementary


617 Fig. S9). Consistent with the effect of _bHLH121_ overexpression in WT (Fig. 1A),


618 _bHLH121_ overexpression in the _bhlh121-7_ mutant restored root length and seedling


619 fresh weight to WT-like levels but did not enhance salt tolerance beyond WT levels


620 (Fig. 11). Altogether, these results suggest that the role of bHLH121 in conferring salt


621 tolerance is conserved in several dicot species, highlighting the potential of using


622 bHLH121 homologs to improve salt tolerance across a broad range of dicot crops.

# 623 4 Discussion


624 The escalating challenge of soil salinity, intensified by global climate change, poses a


625 significant threat to agricultural productivity and food security worldwide. Salinity


626 severely constrains plant growth and yield, and decades of research have sought to


627 unravel the molecular underpinnings of salt stress responses. Seminal work, such as the


628 identification of the Salt Overly Sensitive (SOS) signaling pathway, provided


629 foundational insights into ionic homeostasis (Yang et al., 2018; Zhu, 2002). Despite


630 these advances, the genetic arsenal available for engineering salt-tolerant crops remains


631 limited, underscoring the need to identify novel regulatory components. Intriguingly,


632 recent findings demonstrate that Fe homeostasis components can coordinately regulate


633 both Fe nutrition and salt tolerance across diverse plant species (Li et al., 2017; Liang


634 et al., 2022; Zhang et al., 2025), suggesting an intrinsic link between the Fe homeostasis


635 regulatory network and salt stress responses. However, the mechanistic link


636 coordinating Fe homeostasis and salt adaptation has remained elusive. Our study


637 identifies the transcription factor bHLH121 as a previously unrecognized central player


638 in salt tolerance. The _bhlh121_ mutant exhibited profound hypersensitivity. This distinct


639 phenotype positions bHLH121 not merely as a conduit for Fe-deficiency signals but as

640 a potential integrator of Fe homeostasis and salt stress adaptation. Further


641 transcriptomic and biochemical evidence indicates that the bHLH121–CAT2 module


642 exerts its essential function by modulating the redox homeostasis within the root apex,


643 thereby preserving meristem activity and root growth under saline conditions


644 (Supplementary Fig. S10). These findings provide insight into how a core Fe signaling


645 component is co-opted to mediate oxidative stress management, offering a fresh


646 perspective on the interplay between nutrient sensing and abiotic stress resilience.


647 Recent studies suggest that peanut bHLH121 functions beyond Fe homeostasis by


648 targeting ROS-related genes such as _SOD_, _POD_, and _CAT_ (Zhao et al., 2024), which


649 are well-documented regulators of plant growth and stress responses. The present work


650 establishes a specific role for the bHLH121–CAT2 module in salt tolerance in


651 _Arabidopsis_ . Although Fe homeostasis is tightly associated with ROS dynamics, our


652 results indicate that _CAT2_ overexpression rescues salt hypersensitivity but not Fe


653 deficiency-related growth defects (Fig. 7), strongly suggesting an Fe homeostasis–


654 independent axis regulated by the bHLH121–CAT2 module. Direct binding of


655 bHLH121 to the _CAT2_ promoter was previously observed by ChIP-seq (Kim et al.,


656 2019), and we confirmed this direct binding in vitro (Fig. 7A). Nevertheless, whether


657 additional factors are required for _CAT2_ expression remains to be investigated. Given


658 that bHLH121 interacts and cooperates with IVc bHLH transcription factors to regulate


659 downstream targets in the Fe regulatory network, likely because it lacks an activation


660 or repression domain (Lei et al., 2020), we hypothesize that bHLH121 may similarly


661 function as part of a transcriptional complex responsible for salt stress resilience.


662 The WT-like salt-tolerant phenotypes of complementation and overexpression


663 transgenic lines, regardless of _bHLH121_ expression levels, suggest that bHLH121 may


664 undergo post-transcriptional modification for its function in salt tolerance. In fact,


665 phosphorylation of bHLH121 is crucial for the Fe deficiency response in _Arabidopsis_


666 (Kim et al., 2019), raising the intriguing question of whether phosphorylation also


667 contributes to its role in regulating plant salt tolerance. Moreover, SOS2 from the SOS

668 pathway is a well-documented salt stress-activated kinase that phosphorylates a subset


669 of target proteins associated with ion nutrition (Ma et al., 2025). Although our results


670 suggest that bHLH121 may act in parallel with SOS2 under salt stress, potential


671 interactions between bHLH121 downstream targets, such as transporters, and SOS2


672 cannot be excluded.


673 Our results further indicate the involvement of JA and auxin signaling components


674 in bHLH121-mediated salt tolerance. The salt hypersensitivity of _bhlh121_ mutant roots


675 may arise from a detrimental interplay between disrupted ROS homeostasis and


676 hormone signaling. Overproduction of ROS, driven by _RBOHD_ overexpression,


677 coupled with impaired scavenging capacity reflected by low _CAT2_ and _PRX8_


678 expression (Fig. 6), creates severe oxidative stress. This directly damages root cells and


679 is further amplified by hyperactivation of the JA pathway, as evidenced by feedback


680 upregulation of _JAZ1_ and _JAZ10_ (Fig. 10). Concurrently, the _bhlh121-7_ mutant initiates


681 a maladaptive stress response by drastically suppressing auxin levels through induction


682 of the auxin-inactivating enzyme _GH3.15_ (Sherp et al., 2018). This represents an


683 extreme growth–defense trade-off, in which resources are diverted from growth at an


684 excessive cost. The resulting combination of rampant oxidative damage and near

685 complete shutdown of growth-promoting auxin signaling arrests root development.


686 Phenotypic rescue achieved by inhibiting JA synthesis with DIECA or by supplying


687 exogenous auxin confirms this mechanistic model: DIECA dampens the JA–ROS


688 feedback loop, alleviating oxidative stress, while external IAA bypasses the internal


689 auxin blockade to reactivate growth. Thus, the _bhlh121_ mutant phenotype emerges from


690 a pathologically reinforced network in which ROS, JA, and auxin signals synergize to


691 lock the plant in an over-defensive state, ultimately compromising fitness under salt


692 stress (Supplementary Fig. S10). The precise molecular mechanism(s) by which


693 bHLH121 coordinates JA and auxin signaling warrant further investigation.


694 Catalases play a pivotal role in plant detoxification by mitigating ROS accumulation


695 under abiotic stress (Li et al., 2015; Mhamdi et al., 2012; Zhang et al., 2021). These

696 enzymes catalyze the dismutation of two H 2 O 2 molecules into H 2 O and molecular


697 oxygen (Frugoli et al., 1996). The Arabidopsis genome encodes three catalase isoforms,


698 CAT1, CAT2, and CAT3, each consisting of 492 amino acids with high sequence


699 similarity (Frugoli et al., 1996; Mhamdi et al., 2010). Among these, CAT2 is the


700 predominant isoform, accounting for approximately 80% of total catalase activity,


701 whereas loss of CAT3 causes only minor reductions and CAT1 deletion has negligible


702 effects (Du et al., 2008; Mhamdi et al., 2010; Zou et al., 2015). Consistent with this


703 hierarchy, the _cat1 cat2 cat3_ triple mutant displays severe redox homeostasis disruption


704 and hypersensitivity to salt stress (Su et al., 2018). Further supporting the conserved


705 role of catalases in stress adaptation, silencing of _SmCAT4_ in eggplant ( _Solanum_


706 _melongena_ ) compromises salt tolerance, concomitant with elevated H 2 O 2 accumulation


707 and diminished catalase activity (Shen et al., 2023). Moreover, jasmonic acid modulates


708 salt tolerance through MYC2-mediated transcriptional repression of _CAT2_ (Song et al.,


709 2021), while the CRCK3–CAT2 module contributes to salt stress resilience by


710 maintaining cellular redox homeostasis (Zhuang et al., 2025). Recent findings reveal


711 an additional layer of CAT2 regulation: a redox-regulated RCC1-like protein, CAIR1,


712 controls catalase activity by facilitating its peroxisomal import and preventing its


713 aggregation (Hu et al., 2026). These findings underscore the essential function of


714 catalases in plant adaptive responses to environmental stresses and provide a


715 mechanistic context for the bHLH121–CAT2 axis described here.


716 ROS dynamics in plants constitute a crucial signaling hub that governs growth,


717 development, and stress adaptation (Castro et al., 2021; Mittler et al., 2022; Tsukagoshi,


718 2016). The production of ROS via the Fenton reaction (Halliwell et al., 1992) highlights


719 an intrinsic link between ROS dynamics and Fe homeostasis; however, the precise


720 interplay between Fe nutrition and the ROS burst triggered by salt stress remains poorly


721 understood. Though the present study suggests that bHLH121–CAT2 module acts


722 independently of Fe homeostasis regulatory genes (Fig. 7), we cannot exclude the


723 possibility that bHLH121 regulates salt tolerance in an Fe-dependent manner. It is

724 important to emphasize that Fe homeostasis encompasses multiple dynamic processes,


725 including uptake, transport, distribution, storage, and allocation, and is systemically


726 regulated (Liang, 2022; Wang et al., 2024). Based on the present data, we propose that


727 bHLH121 specifically mediates the integration of systemic Fe signaling with stress


728 responses, including ROS and hormone signaling. A recent study highlighted the role


729 of heat-induced nutritional stress under prolonged high-temperature conditions and


730 suggested that Fe homeostasis represents a promising target for enhancing crop


731 resilience to climate extremes (Minami et al., 2025). Whether bHLH121 also functions


732 in plant responses to environmental stresses beyond salinity constitutes an important


733 direction for future research.


734 In response to stress, plant roots, as the primary interface sensing the external


735 environment, rapidly curtail growth to reallocate resources—a strategic adaptation that


736 hinges on precise regulation of meristematic activity (Liu et al., 2015; Motte et al.,


737 2019). Salt-induced ROS bursts in the root tip are harmful and cause growth arrest and


738 cellular dysfunction (Dang et al., 2025; Xie et al., 2011). Critically, the size of the root


739 apical meristem is determined by the spatial gradient of the O 2 &#91;•&#93; **&#91;−&#93;** to H 2 O 2 ratio


740 (Tsukagoshi, 2016; Tsukagoshi et al., 2010). Therefore, ROS homeostasis in the root


741 must be tightly controlled during plant stress responses. The spatiotemporal dynamics


742 of ROS are intricately governed by numerous nonenzymatic antioxidants and


743 detoxifying enzymes regulated by hormone signaling, Ca &#91;2+&#93; fluxes, and MAPK cascades


744 (Castro et al., 2021). However, the identity of upstream regulators that fine-tune this


745 localized redox landscape has remained elusive. Our identification of bHLH121 as a


746 regulator of _CAT2_ expression and ROS homeostasis in the root apex provides a


747 candidate for such an upstream regulator and offers a framework for understanding how


748 Fe signaling components are integrated into salt stress responses.


749 In agricultural practice, managing micronutrients such as Fe to enhance plant


750 tolerance and secure crop yield in saline soils remains challenging (Kong et al., 2022;


751 Yan et al., 2023). H 2 O 2, for instance, has been proposed as a potential crop growth

752 regulator (Iqbal et al., 2025). Our study provides mechanistic insights that may underlie


753 the additive effects of combining such strategies to combat high salinity. Further


754 investigation is needed to determine whether stress-induced ROS patterns or the


755 artificial application of ROS reciprocally influence Fe homeostasis. In conclusion, this


756 study not only advances our understanding of the physiological and molecular


757 mechanisms underlying bHLH121-mediated salt tolerance but also opens avenues for


758 bHLH121-based molecular strategies to enhance crop resilience against salinity stress,


759 a challenge likely to be intensified by global climate change.

**Supplementary Fig. 10 A proposed working model illustrating the role of**
**bHLH121 in maintaining RAM size and root tip growth under salt stress in**
_**Arabidopsis**_ **.** Under high salinity, bHLH121 positively regulates salt tolerance by
orchestrating a complex regulatory network. bHLH121 promotes the expression of
_CAT2_ and other ROS-related genes directly, as well as indirectly through the
regulation of jasmonate (JA) and auxin signaling pathways. This regulation leads to an
increase in H 2 O 2 clearance, effectively maintains ROS homeostasis and ultimately
confers salt tolerance (middle panel). In wild-type (WT) roots, this bHLH121dependent mechanism maintains a proper balance between O 2 - - and H 2 O 2, ensuring

normal root apical meristem size and root elongation under salt stress (left panel). In
contrast, loss of function of bHLH121 ( _bhlh121_ mutant) disrupts this balance, resulting
in excessive H 2 O 2 accumulation, reduced meristem size, and inhibited root growth,
thereby decreasing salt tolerance (right panel). The balance scale at the bottom
represents the relative ROS equilibrium.
bHLH121 confers salt stress tolerance via direct regulation of CAT2, revealing a
bHLH121–CAT2 module that operates independently of the bHLH121-mediated iron
homeostasis pathway.
