Cauliflower mosaic virus strain W260 induces hypersensitive response (HR) in Nicotiana edwardsonii and systemic cell death in N. clevelandii. In contrast, the D4 strain of Cauliflower mosaic virus evades the host defenses in Nicotiana species; it induces chlorotic primary lesions and a systemic mosaic in both hosts. Previous studies with chimeric viruses had indicated that gene VI of W260 was responsible for elicitation of HR or cell death. To prove conclusively that W260 gene VI is responsible, we inserted gene VI of W260 and D4 into the Agrobacterium tumefaciens binary vector pKYLX7. Agroinfiltration of these constructs into the leaves of N. edwardsonii and N. clevelandii revealed that gene VI of W260 elicited HR in N. edwardsonii 4 to 5 days after infiltration and cell death in N. clevelandii approximately 9 to 12 days after infiltration. In contrast, gene VI of D4 did not elicit HR or cell death in either Nicotiana species. A frameshift mutation introduced into gene VI of W260 abolished its ability to elicit HR or cell death in both Nicotiana species, demonstrating that the elicitor is the gene VI protein. 相似文献

The P6 protein of Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) W260 elicits a hypersensitive response (HR) on inoculated leaves of Nicotiana edwardsonii. This defense response, common to many plant pathogens, has two key characteristics, cell death within the initially infected tissues and restriction of the pathogen to this area. We present evidence that a plant gene designated CCD1, originally identified in N. bigelovii, can selectively block the cell death pathway during HR, whereas the resistance pathway against W260 remains intact. Suppression of cell death was evident not only macroscopically but also microscopically. The suppression of HR-mediated cell death was specific to CaMV, as Tobacco mosaic virus was able to elicit HR in the plants that contained CCD1. CCD1 also blocks the development of a systemic cell death symptom induced specifically by the P6 protein of W260 in N. clevelandii. Introgression of CCD1 from N. bigelovii into N. clevelandii blocked the development of systemic cell death in response to W260 infection but could not prevent systemic cell death induced by Tomato bushy stunt virus. Thus, CCD1 blocks both local and systemic cell death induced by P6 of W260 but does not act as a general suppressor of cell death induced by other plant viruses. Furthermore, experiments with CCD1 provide further evidence that cell death could be uncoupled from resistance in the HR of Nicotiana edwardsonii to CaMV W260. 相似文献

The nontarget effects associated with silencing of the N gene in Nicotiana edwardsonii, an amphidiploid species derived from N. glutinosa and N. clevelandii, have been characterized in this study. The N protein confers resistance to Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), and is representative of a family of nucleotide-binding site leucine-rich repeat proteins present in N. glutinosa. Previous studies have shown that silencing of the N gene or of other plant genes associated with N-mediated defenses abolishes host resistance to TMV, and this effect can be measured through enhancements in movement or replication of TMV in the N-silenced plants. However, the nontarget effects of gene silencing have not been investigated thoroughly. Notably, are the functions of other resistance (R) genes also affected in experiments designed to silence the N gene? To investigate whether heterologous sequences could silence the N gene, we selected an R gene homolog from N. glutinosa that differed from the N gene by approximately 17%, created a hairpin transgene, and developed transgenic N. edwardsonii plants. Expression of this hairpin in the transgenic N. edwardsonii plants compromised the hypersensitive response to TMV, demonstrating that a single hairpin transgene could silence a block of R genes related by sequence similarity. We then investigated whether the response of N-silenced plants to other viruses would be altered, and found that the hypersensitive response triggered against the tombusviruses Tomato bushy stunt virus and Cymbidium ringspot virus also was compromised. This study indicates that a Tombusvirus R gene shares some homology with the N gene, which could facilitate the cloning of this gene. 相似文献

A new variety of Nicotiana edwardsonii, designated N. edwardsonii cv. Columbia, expresses pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins in a temporal manner 45 to 49 days postplanting and also exhibits enhanced resistance to Tobacco mosaic virus, Tobacco necrosis virus, and Tomato bushy stunt virus. In contrast, PR proteins were not expressed in the original N. edwardsonii variety at comparable ages but were induced after onset of a hypersensitive response to viral infection. The temporal induction of PR proteins in 'Columbia' was correlated with increases in salicylic acid and glycosylated salicylic acid. Earlier studies noted that some Nicotiana hybrids derived from interspecific crosses constitutively express PR proteins, but the genetic basis of this phenomenon had not been investigated, likely because many interspecific Nicotiana crosses are sterile. However, the close genetic relationship between N. edwardsonii and 'Columbia' indicated that a hybrid between these two plants might be fertile, and this proved to be true. Genetic crosses between 'Columbia' and N. edwardsonii demonstrated that a single, dominant gene conditioned temporal expression of PR proteins and enhanced resistance. This gene was designated TPR1 (for temporal expression of PR proteins). 相似文献

In this study, we analyzed the influence of two nested genes (p19 and p22) of tomato bushy stunt virus (TBSV) on disease symptoms in systemically infected plants and in local lesion hosts. The contribution of individual genes was determined by bioassays with an infectious clone of wild-type TBSV, with p19/p22 mutant derivatives, and by expression of individual TBSV genes from a heterologous potato virus X (PVX) vector. Our results showed that TBSV genes could be expressed at high levels from the PVX vector. The subcellular localization of these proteins as well as the ability of PVX-expressed p22 to trans complement TBSV cell-to-cell movement defective mutants indicate that the exogenously expressed proteins are functionally active. Inoculation studies with TBSV mutants and the PVX derivatives demonstrated that p19 induced a generalized necrosis upon systemic infection of Nicotiana benthamiana and N. clevelandii. In addition, p19 elicited the formation of local necrotic lesions in N. tabacum; however, in N. glutinosa and N. edwardsonii, the local lesion response was activated by p22. These results show that the p19 and p22 proteins of TBSV are important symptom determinants and that closely related plant species may contain different resistance genes that selectively respond to individual TBSV proteins. 相似文献

Analysis of the N gene hypersensitive response induced by a fluorescently tagged tobacco mosaic virus 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

The hypersensitive response (HR) triggered on Nicotiana edwardsonii by tobacco mosaic virus was studied using a modified viral genome that directed expression of the green fluorescent protein. Inoculated plants were initially incubated at 32 degrees C to inhibit the N gene-mediated HR. Transfer to 20 degrees C initiated the HR, and fluorescent infection foci were monitored for early HR-associated events. Membrane damage, which preceded visible cell collapse by more than 3 h, was accompanied by a transient restriction of the xylem within infection sites. Following cell collapse and the rapid desiccation of tissue undergoing the HR, isolated, infected cells were detected at the margin of necrotic lesions. These virus-infected cells were able to reinitiate infection on transfer to 32 degrees C, however, if maintained at 20 degrees C they eventually died. The results indicate that the tobacco mosaic virus-induced HR is a two-phase process with an early stage culminating in rapid cell collapse and tissue desiccation followed by a more extended period during which the remaining infected cells are eliminated. 相似文献

Plants defend themselves by inducing sophisticated multilevel defense responses against pathogenic attack. The first line
of defense against microbial pathogens is the process of nonself-recognition, which mediates the activation of the necessary
defense repertoire. The hypersensitive response (HR), a macroscopic collapse of plant leaves in primary infection site, is
one of such plant resistance responses. Subsequently, the HR triggers a general resistance mechanism called systemic acquired
resistance (SAR), rendering uninfected parts of the plants less sensitive to further pathogenic attacks. Here, we show that
SIZ1 mutation-mediated preexisting SAR attenuates HR-associated cell death in Arabidopsis thaliana. In siz1 mutant, the amount of PR1 and PR5 stayed high level, and the growth of pathogenic bacteria Pseudomonas syringae pv. maculicola (Pma) strain M6CΔE was reduced. Early callose deposition, spontaneous formation of microscopic cell death, and reactive oxygen
species (ROS) were also observed in siz1 mutant. 相似文献

Non-host disease resistance involves the production of hypersensitive response (HR), a programmed cell death (PCD) that occurs at the site of pathogen infection. Plant mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and red-ox changes play a major role in regulating such cell death. Proline catabolism reactions, especially pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C) accumulation, are known to produce ROS and contribute to cell death. Here we studied important genes related to proline synthesis and catabolism in the defence against host and non-host strains of Pseudomonas syringae in Nicotiana benthamiana and Arabidopsis. Our results show that ornithine delta-aminotransferase (δOAT) and proline dehydrogenases (ProDH1 and ProDH2) are involved in the defence against non-host pathogens. Silencing of these genes in N. benthamiana delayed occurrence of HR and favoured non-host pathogen growth. Arabidopsis mutants for these genes compromised non-host resistance and showed a decrease in non-host pathogen-induced ROS. Some of the genes involved in proline metabolism were also induced by a pathogen-carrying avirulence gene, indicating that proline metabolism is influenced during effector-triggered immunity (ETI). Our results demonstrate that δOAT and ProDH enzyme-mediated steps produce ROS in mitochondria and regulate non-host HR, thus contributing to non-host resistance in plants. 相似文献

MAPKKKalpha is a positive regulator of cell death associated with both plant immunity and disease 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Many plant pathogens cause disease symptoms that manifest over days as regions of localized cell death. Localized cell death (the hypersensitive response; HR) also occurs in disease-resistant plants, but this response appears within hours of attempted infection and may restrict further pathogen growth. We identified a MAP kinase kinase kinase gene (MAPKKKalpha) that is required for the HR and resistance against Pseudomonas syringae. Significantly, we found that MAPKKKalpha also regulates cell death in susceptible leaves undergoing P. syringae infection. Overexpression of MAPKKKalpha in leaves activated MAPKs and caused pathogen-independent cell death. By overexpressing MAPKKKalpha in leaves and suppressing expression of various MAPKK and MAPK genes by virus-induced gene silencing, we identified two distinct MAPK cascades that act downstream of MAPKKKalpha. These results demonstrate that signal transduction pathways associated with both plant immunity and disease susceptibility share a common molecular switch. 相似文献

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades are involved in various processes from plant growth and development to biotic and abiotic stress responses. MAPK kinases (MAPKKs), which link MAPKs and MAPKK kinases (MAPKKKs), play crucial roles in MAPK cascades to mediate a variety of stress responses in plants. However, few MAPKKs have been functionally characterized in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum). In this study, a novel gene, GhMKK5, from cotton belonging to the group C MAPKKs was isolated and characterized. The expression of GhMKK5 can be induced by pathogen infection, abiotic stresses, and multiple defence-related signal molecules. The overexpression of GhMKK5 in Nicotiana benthamiana enhanced the plants' resistance to the bacterial pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum by elevating the expression of pathogen resistance (PR) genes, including PR1a, PR2, PR4, PR5, and NPR1, but increased the plants' sensitivity to the oomycete pathogen Phytophthora parasitica var. nicotianae Tucker. Importantly, GhMKK5-overexpressing plants displayed markedly elevated expression of reactive oxygen species-related and cell death marker genes, such as NtRbohA and NtCDM, and resulted in hypersensitive response (HR)-like cell death characterized by the accumulation of H(2)O(2). Furthermore, it was demonstrated that GhMKK5 overexpression in plants reduced their tolerance to salt and drought stresses, as determined by statistical analysis of seed germination, root length, leaf water loss, and survival rate. Drought obviously accelerated the cell death phenomenon in GhMKK5-overexpressing plants. These results suggest that GhMKK5 may play an important role in pathogen infection and the regulation of the salt and drought stress responses in plants. 相似文献

Plants recruit innate immune receptors such as leucine-rich repeat (LRR) proteins to recognize pathogen attack and activate defense genes. Here, we identified the pepper (Capsicum annuum) pathogenesis-related protein10 (PR10) as a leucine-rich repeat protein1 (LRR1)-interacting partner. Bimolecular fluorescence complementation and coimmunoprecipitation assays confirmed the specific interaction between LRR1 and PR10 in planta. Avirulent Xanthomonas campestris pv vesicatoria infection induces PR10 expression associated with the hypersensitive cell death response. Transient expression of PR10 triggers hypersensitive cell death in pepper and Nicotiana benthamiana leaves, which is amplified by LRR1 coexpression as a positive regulator. LRR1 promotes the ribonuclease activity and phosphorylation of PR10, leading to enhanced cell death signaling. The LRR1-PR10 complex is formed in the cytoplasm, resulting in its secretion into the apoplastic space. Engineered nuclear confinement of both proteins revealed that the cytoplasmic localization of the PR10-LRR1 complex is essential for cell death-mediated defense signaling. PR10/LRR1 silencing in pepper compromises resistance to avirulent X. campestris pv vesicatoria infection. By contrast, PR10/LRR1 overexpression in Arabidopsis thaliana confers enhanced resistance to Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato and Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis. Together, these results suggest that the cytosolic LRR-PR10 complex is responsible for cell death-mediated defense signaling. 相似文献

Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria (Xcv) type III effector AvrBsT triggers programmed cell death (PCD) and activates the hypersensitive response (HR) in plants. Here, we isolated and identified the plasma membrane localized pathogenesis‐related (PR) protein 4c gene (CaPR4c) from pepper (Capsicum annuum) leaves undergoing AvrBsT‐triggered HR cell death. CaPR4c encodes a protein with a signal peptide and a Barwin domain. Recombinant CaPR4c protein expressed in Escherichia coli exhibited cysteine protease‐inhibitor activity and ribonuclease (RNase) activity. Subcellular localization analyses revealed that CaPR4c localized to the plasma membrane in plant cells. CaPR4c expression was rapidly and specifically induced by avirulent Xcv (avrBsT) infection. Transient expression of CaPR4c caused HR cell death in pepper leaves, which was accompanied by enhanced accumulation of H2O2 and significant induction of some defense‐response genes. Deletion of the signal peptide from CaPR4c abolished the induction of HR cell death, indicating a requirement for plasma membrane localization of CaPR4c for HR cell death. CaPR4c silencing in pepper disrupted both basal and AvrBsT‐triggered resistance responses, and enabled Xcv proliferation in infected leaves. H2O2 accumulation, cell‐death induction, and defense‐response gene expression were distinctly reduced in CaPR4c‐silenced pepper. CaPR4c overexpression in transgenic Arabidopsis plants conferred greater resistance against infection by Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato and Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis. These results collectively suggest that CaPR4c plays an important role in plant cell death and defense signaling. 相似文献

Vascular associated death1, a novel GRAM domain-containing protein, is a regulator of cell death and defense responses in vascular tissues 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Lorrain S Lin B Auriac MC Kroj T Saindrenan P Nicole M Balagué C Roby D 《The Plant cell》2004,16(8):2217-2232
The hypersensitive response (HR) is a programmed cell death that is commonly associated with plant disease resistance. A novel lesion mimic mutant, vad1 (for vascular associated death1), that exhibits light conditional appearance of propagative HR-like lesions along the vascular system was identified. Lesion formation is associated with expression of defense genes, production of high levels of salicylic acid (SA), and increased resistance to virulent and avirulent strains of Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato. Analyses of the progeny from crosses between vad1 plants and either nahG transgenic plants, sid1, nonexpressor of PR1 (npr1), enhanced disease susceptibility1 (eds1), or non-race specific disease resistance1 (ndr1) mutants, revealed the vad1 cell death phenotype to be dependent on SA biosynthesis but NPR1 independent; in addition, both EDS1 and NDR1 are necessary for the proper timing and amplification of cell death as well as for increased resistance to Pseudomonas strains. VAD1 encodes a novel putative membrane-associated protein containing a GRAM domain, a lipid or protein binding signaling domain, and is expressed in response to pathogen infection at the vicinity of the hypersensitive lesions. VAD1 might thus represent a new potential function in cell death control associated with cells in the vicinity of vascular bundles. 相似文献

In Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV)-infected tobacco plants carrying the N resistance gene, a hypersensitive reaction or response (HR) occurs to enclose the virus in the infected tissue. Although a contribution of peroxidases to the resistance has been proposed, no evidence has been presented that tobacco peroxidase genes respond to HR. Here, we describe the HR-induced expression of a tobacco peroxidase gene (tpoxC1) whose induction kinetics were slightly different from those of acidic and basic tobacco pathogenesis-related (PR) protein genes. Interestingly, tpoxC1 was insensitive to the inducers of PR genes such as salicylic acid, methyl jasmonate, and ethephon. Spermine activated tpoxC1 gene expression at a low level and both acidic and basic PR gene expression at a considerably higher level. These results indicate that the induced expression of tpoxC1 is regulated differently from that of classical tobacco PR genes in the N gene-mediated self-defense system in tobacco plants. 相似文献

Systemic acquired resistance is induced by R gene-mediated responses independent of cell death 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
PO-PU LIU SAIKAT BHATTACHARJEE DANIEL F. KLESSIG PETER MOFFETT† 《Molecular Plant Pathology》2010,11(1):155-160
On infection by pathogens, plants initiate defence responses that are able to curtail infection locally. These responses are mediated either by receptor-like proteins that recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns or by the protein products of disease resistance ( R ) genes. At the same time, primary defence responses often result in the generation of signals that induce what is known as systemic acquired resistance (SAR), such that defence responses are enhanced on secondary pathogen challenge in distal tissues. R protein-mediated SAR induction is normally accompanied by a type of programmed cell death known as the hypersensitive response (HR) and, in some instances, cell death alone has been implicated in the induction of SAR. This has raised the question of whether R protein-mediated signalling per se induces SAR or whether SAR is an indirect result of the induction of HR. Using the Rx gene of potato, which confers resistance to Potato Virus X in the absence of cell death, we have shown that the HR is dispensable for R protein-mediated induction of SAR and that Rx-induced SAR is mediated by the same salicylate-dependent pathway induced by other R proteins. 相似文献

Salicylic acid in the machinery of hypersensitive cell death and disease resistance 总被引:29,自引:0,他引:29
Alvarez ME 《Plant molecular biology》2000,44(3):429-442
Although extensive data has described the key role of salicylic acid (SA) in signaling pathogen-induced disease resistance, its function in physiological processes related to cell death is still poorly understood. Recent studies have explored the requirement of SA for mounting the hypersensitive response (HR) against an invading pathogen, where a particular cell death process is activated at the site of attempted infection causing a confined lesion. Biochemical data suggest that SA potentiates the signal pathway for HR by affecting an early phosphorylation-sensitive step preceding the generation of pro-death signals, including those derived from the oxidative burst. Accordingly, the epistatic relationship between cell death and SA accumulation, analyzed in crosses between lesion-mimic mutants (spontaneous lesion formation) and the transgenic nahG line (depleted in SA) places the SA activity in a feedback loop downstream and upstream of cell death. Exciting advances have been made in the identification of cellular protective functions and cell death suppressors that might operate in HR. Moreover, the spatio-temporal patterns of the SA accumulation (non-homogeneous distribution, biphasic kinetics) described in some HR lesions, may also reveal important clues for unraveling the complex cellular network that tightly balances pro- and anti-death functions in the hypersensitive cell death. 相似文献

David Munch Eleazar Rodriguez Simon Bressendorff Ohkmae K Park Daniel Hofius Morten Petersen 《Autophagy》2014,10(9):1579-1587
Autophagy is a homeostatic degradation and recycling process that is also involved in defense against microbial pathogens and in certain forms of cellular suicide. Autophagy has been proposed to negatively regulate plant immunity-associated cell death related to the hypersensitive response (HR), as older autophagy-deficient mutants are unable to contain this type of cell death 5 to 10 d after infection. Such spreading cell death was found to require NPR1 (nonexpressor of PR genes 1), but surprisingly did not occur in younger atg mutants. In contrast, we find that npr1 mutants are not impaired in rapid programmed cell death activation upon pathogen recognition. Furthermore, our molecular evidence suggests that the NPR1-dependent spreading cell death in older atg mutants may originate from an inability to cope with excessive accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins and ER stress which derive from salicylic acid (SA)-dependent signaling (e.g., systemic acquired resistance). We also demonstrate that both senescence and immunity-related cell death seen in older atg mutants can be recapitulated in younger atg mutants primed with ER stress. We therefore propose that the reduction in SA signaling caused by npr1 loss-of-function is sufficient to alleviate the stress levels accumulated during aging in autophagy deficient cells which would otherwise become insurmountable and lead to uncontrolled cell death. 相似文献
