Leaves are the key organs of plants that produce photosynthates. Leaf senescence aids nutrient remobilization from source to sink tissues, which dramatically affects crop quality and yield. Although several senescence-associated genes (SAGs) have been recognized in cotton, the function of lipoic acid synthase in leaf senescence remains unclear. Therefore, we isolated a lipoic acid synthase gene named GhLIP1 from cotton ( Gossypium hirsutum L.). Protein domain analysis revealed that GhLIP1 had a LIAS-N domain and an Elp3 domain, and yeast mutant complementation experiments demonstrated that GhLIP1 was a lipoic acid synthase. GhLIP1 expression pattern analysis showed that GhLIP1 was vastly expressed in fibres, and the phytohormone IAA (indole-3-acetic acid) induced its transcription. When GhLIP1 was transformed into Arabidopsis , the leaves of overexpression Arabidopsis exhibited a late leaf senescence phenotype compared to wild-type Arabidopsis , Col-0. Moreover, downregulation of GhLIP1 expression using virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) technology resulted in early leaf senescence in cotton. qRT-PCR analyses revealed that two SAGs, GhWRKY53 and GhNAP , were upregulated in cotton plants with GhLIP1 knock-down. Cell ultrastructure observations found that chloroplasts were degraded in an orderly manner in cotton leaf cells with GhLIP1 knock-down. These results suggest that GhLIP1 plays a significant role in leaf senescence in cotton.
