In plants, jasmonic acid (JA) and its derivatives are thought to be involved in mobile forms of defense against biotic and abiotic stresses. In this study, the distal transport of JA-isoleucine (JA-Ile) that is synthesized de novo in response to leaf wounding in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) plants was investigated. JA-[¹³C₆]Ile was recovered in distal untreated leaves after wounded leaves were treated with [¹³C₆]Ile. However, as [¹³C₆]Ile was also recovered in the distal untreated leaves, whether JA-Ile was synthesized in the wounded or in the untreated leaves was unclear. Hence, stem exudates were analyzed to obtain more detailed information. When [¹³C₆]Ile and [²H₆]JA were applied separately into the wounds on two different leaves, JA-[¹³C₆]Ile and [²H₆]JA-Ile were detected in the stem exudates but [²H₆]JA–[¹³C₆]Ile was not, indicating that JA was conjugated with Ile in the wounded leaf and that the resulting JA-Ile was then transported into systemic tissues. The [²H₃]JA-Ile that was applied exogenously to the wounded tissues reached distal untreated leaves within 10min. Additionally, applying [²H₃]JA-Ile to the wounded leaves at concentrations of 10 and 60nmol/two leaves induced the accumulation of PIN II, LAP A, and JAZ3 mRNA in the distal untreated leaves of the spr2 mutant S. lycopersicum plants. These results demonstrate the transportation of de novo synthesized JA-Ile and suggest that JA-Ile may be a mobile signal.
