Central to this response is the plasma membrane (PM), where low temperature is perceived and cellular homeostasis must be preserved by maintaining membrane integrity. Here, we present the first PM proteome of cold-acclimated Brachypodium distachyon, a model species for the study of monocot crops. A time-course experiment investigated CA-induced changes in the proteome following two-phase partitioning PM enrichment and label-free quantification by nano-liquid chromatography-mass spectrophotometry. Two days of CA were sufficient for membrane protection as well as an initial increase in sugar levels and coincided with a significant change in the abundance of 154 proteins. Prolonged CA resulted in further increases in soluble sugars and abundance changes in more than 680 proteins, suggesting both a necessary early response to low-temperature treatment, as well as a sustained CA response elicited over several days. A meta-analysis revealed that the identified PM proteins have known roles in low-temperature tolerance, metabolism, transport, and pathogen defense as well as drought, osmotic stress, and salt resistance suggesting crosstalk between stress responses, such that CA may prime plants for other abiotic and biotic stresses. The PM proteins identified here present keys to an understanding of cold tolerance in monocot crops and the hope of addressing economic losses associated with modern climate-mediated increases in frost events.}, title = {The Brachypodium distachyon cold-acclimated plasma membrane proteome is primed for stress resistance}, volume = {11}, year = {2021} }
