Recurrent outbreaks of root mat in cucumber and tomato are associated with a monomorphic, cucumopine, Ri-plasmid harboured by various Alphaproteobacteria

Recurrent outbreaks of root mat have occurred in the UK and France in cucumber and tomato. Root mat is caused by bacterial strains harbouring a Ri-plasmid (pRi). Fifteen root mat-associated (RMA) cucumopine pRi were analysed by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and Southern blotting. These pRi were harboured by Agrobacterium biovar 1 strains isolated during a 1970s outbreak of root mat in UK soil grown cucumber, and also by Agrobacterium biovar 1, Ochrobactrum, Rhizobium and Sinorhizobium isolated during outbreaks of root mat in cucumber and tomato grown hydroponically in the UK and France since 1993. PCR-RFLP analysis of the T-DNA and virD2 regions showed sequence homology between all cucumopine pRi, indicating that these pRi are monomorphic, and thus this pRi remained in the UK without inducing symptoms for some 15 years between outbreaks in the 1970s and 1990s. Cucumopine pRi were also shown to possess the virE2 substitute GALLS gene by Southern blotting. Two other pRi, harboured by Agrobacterium isolated from a recent root mat outbreak in one tomato crop, were also shown to possess the GALLS gene but were shown not to be cucumopine pRi by PCR-RFLP.     

Increase of root induction in Pinus nigra explants using agrobacteria

Summary Wounding of explanted Pinus nigra primary explants followed by infection with Agrobacterium rhizogenes wild strains 8196, 15834, or with the pRiA4abc transconjugant strain of A. tumefaciens (C58 chromosomal background) resulted in adventitious root induction. Roots were formed in 60–97% of explants (1–3 roots/explant) but without a hairy root phenotype. The presence of T-DNA of pRi8196 or pRiA4abc in regenerated roots was confirmed by the opine (mannopinic acid) content. Transformation response was influenced by the bacterial strain, age of explant and period of co-cultivation. Both the aggregate state (liquid) of medium and the season of the year (spring) had a positive effect on the root induction and their development. Histological analysis of the transformed roots showed that complete elements of primary and secondary root structures were present but roots were always triarch or tetrarch in the central cylinder as opposed to the primary roots of the untransformed seedling wich are diarch.     

Incompatibility between a Rhizobium Sym plasmid and a Ri plasmid of Agrobacterium

The symbiotic plasmid of Rhizobium trifolii G1008 was mobilized to other Rhizobium strains and to Agrobacterium using Tn5-Mob, a transposon that confers on a host replicon the ability to be mobilized in trans by RP4. Incompatibility was observed between pSymG1008 and the hairy-root-inducing plasmid pRi1855. Agarose gel electrophoresis revealed that pRi1855 was eliminated as an autonomous element in the presence of pSymG1008 and its absence was correlated with loss of the ability to induce hairy root disease. This indicates a close ancestral relationship between a Rhizobium symbiotic plasmid and a plant pathogenic plasmid of Agrobacterium. pSymG1008 and pRi1855 can be assigned to the IncRh-3 incompatibility group. Furthermore, pSymG1008 was mobilized at low frequency to R. phaseoli 51E and the transconjugants isolated had lost the indigenous Sym plasmid and the ability to nodulate beans.     

Map location on Agrobacterium root-inducing plasmids of homologies with the virulence region of tumor-inducing plasmids

Southern-type hybridizations were carried out in order to identify sequence homologies with the pTi vir loci, on an agropine-type plasmid (pRiHRI) and a mannopine-type plasmid (pRi8196) of Agrobacterium rhizogenes. The localization of the sequences hybridizing with subcloned fragments containing vir A, B, G, C, and D from pTiAch5 indicated a similar linear organization of the pTi vir loci and their homologies on pRiHRI and pRi8196, though no homology was detected on both pRi with a 1.1-kb internal fragment of virD. No homology was detected either with the vir E locus on pRiHRI vir region, nor with the virF locus on both pRi vir regions. As on nopaline pTiC58, fragments bearing the homologies with virC and virG are closer together on both pRi than on octopine pTiAch5. A preliminary functional map of the pRiHRI vir region is deduced from this study.     

T-DNA length variability in mannopine hairy root: more than 50 kilobasepairs of pRi T-DNA can integrate in plant cells

Independent carrot (Daucus carota) hairy root lines were established by inoculation of discs taken from the same carrot with Agrobacterium rhizogenes 8196 and A. tumefaciens C58C1(pRi8196) carrying pRi8196. Several lines were compared with respect to T-DNA length. One of them was found to have integrated sequences covering more than 50 kbp of the Ri plasmid     

Genome structure of Ri plasmid (3). Sequencing analysis of the vir region of pRi1724 in Japanese Agrobacterium rhizogenes.

The entire genome of the pRi1724 (217.6-kb) in the mikimopine type Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain MAFF03-01724 has been completely sequenced. The vir region covering 30.2-kb has found to be composed of 21 genes resembling virH1, virA, virB1-11, virG, virC1-2, and virD1-5. The structural organization of the pRi1724 vir operons in this study is exactly the same as that of the previously reported vir operons of other Ri or Ti plasmids, although the size of some ORFs showed little variations among the plasmids. We also found virE3 gene in the pRi1724 (1), but different from Ti plasmids, virE1 and virE2 that are also important for the virulence do not exist in the vir region of pRi1724.     

Homology mapping of T-DNA regions on three Agrobacterium rhizogenes Ri plasmids by electron microscope heteroduplex studies

Recombinant plasmids carrying segments of the Agrobacterium rhizogenes T-DNA regions of the three Ri plasmids 1855 (TL-DNA only), 8196, and 2659 were used for establishing homology maps by electron microscope examination of heteroduplexes. Plasmid DNA was linearized by digestion with suitable restriction endonucleases in order to generate large T-DNA segments. Heteroduplexes were prepared in 50% formamide and spread under standard conditions. Measurements of double and single strands allowed the drawing of homology maps. The three T-DNAs share mainly two homologous sequences of respectively about 2.5 and 1.5 kb, bracketing a largely nonhomologous central part which is about 5.5 kb long. The T-DNAs from pRi1855 and pRi2659 appear to be more related to each other than to that of pRi8196. With reference to the published nucleotide sequence of the TL-DNA of pRiA4 (probably identical to that of pRi1855), ORFs 8 and 14 seem to be the most conserved sequences of the three T-DNAs. The significance of these conserved sequences is unclear since the genetic loci involved in rhizogenicity of agropine strains identified previously are located in nonhomologous regions.     

Physical map of the Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain 8196 virulence plasmid

Virulence of Agrobacterium rhizogenes, agent of hairy root disease, is conferred by large plasmids called Ri (root-inducing) plasmids. We have determined the BamHI fragment map of pRi8196, MW 143 Mda, principally by analysis of recombinant plasmids containing overlapping BamHI partial-digest fragments. Clones containing solitary BamHI inserts of remaining unmapped fragments were used to probe a series of Southern-blotted, pRi8196-derived EcoRI, PstI, HindIII, SalI, or SmaI digests. Continguous hybridized bands represented complements of EcoRI, PstI, HindIII, SalI, or SmaI fragments which bridged the unmapped BamHI fragments. We present, in addition, a detailed map of the core T-DNA region with respect to the restriction endonucleases SalI, EcoRI, HpaI, and HindIII.
