As the most essential element, nitrogen play a pivotal role in plant physiological process, which is susceptible to contaminants. However, the enantioselective effects of chiral herbicides on nitrogen metabolism have not been comprehensively understood. In this study, effects of chiral herbicide Dichlorprop (cas 120-36-5) (DCPP) on the nitrogen behaviors in Arabidopsis thaliana were investigated. The results revealed that the uptakes of inorganic nitrogen (NO3− and NH4+) were preferentially impacted by herbicidal active (R)-DCPP, where the transportation of beneficial NO3− was inhibited but the toxic NH4+ was accumulated. As for nitrogen assimilation, enantioselectivity was disappeared and reoccurred when NO3− was assimilated into NH4+. Furthermore, the pathways of NH4+ assimilation differed in Arabidopsis exposed to DCPP enantiomers, where (S)-DCPP remained almost the same to the control relying on GS-GOGAT cycle, but the dominant pathway in (R)-DCPP group was shifted to glutamate dehydrogenase route. Consequently, a profound enantioselectivity was also observed in the effects on amino acids synthesis. As for nitrogen stable isotope fractionation, (R)-DCPP led to more negative δ15N values than (S)-DCPP at 0.3 μM, indicating the selective uptake of toxic NH4+ and different discrimination of δ15N was also observed between DCPP enantiomers. Moreover, stable isotopic evidence also revealed the disturbance caused by DCPP to the balance of nitrogen demand and consumption in A. thaliana. All these results may contribute to the final enantioselective toxicity, providing a new sight into the better understanding the action mechanism of chiral herbicides.
