We have previously shown that rice plants silenced for peroxisomal ascorbate peroxidase (OsAPX4-RNAi) display higher resilience to photosynthesis under oxidative stress and photorespiratory conditions. However, the redox mechanisms underlying that intriguing response remain unknown. Here, we tested the hypothesis that favorable effects triggered by peroxisomal APX deficiency on photosynthesis resilience under CAT inhibition are dependent on the intensity of photorespiration associated with the abundance of photosynthetic and redox proteins. Non-transformed (NT) and OsAPX4-RNAi silenced rice plants were grown under ambient (AC) or high CO2 (HC) conditions and subjected to 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (3-AT)-mediated CAT activity inhibition. Photosynthetic measurements evidenced that OsAPX4-RNAi plants simultaneously exposed to CAT inhibition and HC lost the previously acquired advantage in photosynthesis resilience displayed under AC. Silenced plants exposed to environment photorespiration and CAT inhibition presented lower photorespiration as indicated by smaller Gly/Ser and Jo/Jc ratios and glycolate oxidase activity. Interestingly, when these silenced plants were exposed to HC and CAT-inhibition, they exhibited an inverse response compared to AC in terms of photorespiration indicators, associated with higher accumulation of proteins. Multivariate and correlation network analyses suggest that the proteomics changes induced by HC combined with CAT inhibition are substantially different between NT and OsAPX4-RNAi plants. Our results suggest that the intensity of photorespiration and peroxisomal APX-mediated redox signaling are tightly regulated under CAT inhibition induced oxidative stress, which can modulate the photosynthetic efficiency, possibly via a coordinated regulation of protein abundance and rearrangement, ultimately triggered by crosstalk involving H2O2 levels related to CAT and APX activities in peroxisomes.
