机械损伤对拟南芥莲座叶芥子油苷含量和组成的影响   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
植物可以利用体内次生代谢产物的变化来抵御昆虫取食和机械损伤.芥子油苷是拟南芥的主要次生代谢产物.通过剪刀剪取叶片(40%面积)对温室培养的拟南芥幼苗莲座叶进行机械损伤处理,观察机械损伤后8个时间点拟南芥叶片中不同种类芥子油苷含量和组合模式的变化.结果表明机械损伤后3 h叶片中芥子油苷总含量开始明显上升,脂肪族和吲哚族芥子油苷含量在损伤后3 h也都显著高于损伤前.在检测到的12种芥子油苷中,4-甲基亚磺酰丁基芥子油苷(4-methylsulphinylbutyl GS,4MSOB)的含量最多,占芥子油苷总量的48.5%,并且在损伤3 h后含量增加.4MSOB含量的变化成为影响莲座叶中芥子油苷组合模式的主导因素.其它各种芥子油苷在损伤后不同时间点的变化也存在差异.  相似文献

The Arabidopsis thaliana genome contains at least 32 terpenoid synthase (AtTPS) genes [Aubourg et al., Mol. Genet. Genom. 267 (2002) 730] a few of which have recently been characterized. Based on hierarchical cluster analysis of AtTPS gene expression, measured by microarray profiling and validated with published expression data, we identified two groups of predominantly root expressed AtTPS genes containing five members with previously unknown biochemical functions (At4g13280, At4g13300, At5g48110, At1g33750, and At3g29410). Among the root expressed AtTPS genes, a pair of tandem-organized genes, At4g13280 (AtTPS12) and At4g13300 (AtTPS13), shares 91% predicted amino acid identity indicating recent gene duplication. Bacterial expression of cDNAs and enzyme assays showed that both At4g13280 and At4g13300 encode sesquiterpene synthases catalyzing the conversion of farnesyl diphosphate to (Z)-gamma-bisabolene and the additional minor products E-nerolidol and alpha-bisabolol. Expression of beta-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene fused to upstream genomic regions of At4g13280 or At4g13300 showed constitutive promoter activities in the cortex and sub-epidermal layers of Arabidopsis roots. In addition, highly localized promoter activities were found in leaf hydathodes and flower stigmata. Mechanical wounding of Arabidopsis leaves induced local expression of At4g13280 and At4g13300. The functional characterization of At4g13280 gene product AtTPS12 and At4g13230 gene product AtTPS13 as (Z)-gamma-bisabolene synthases, together with the recent characterization of two flower-specific AtTPS [At5g23960 and At5g44630; Tholl et al., Plant J. 42 (2005) 757], concludes the biochemical functional annotation of all four predicted Arabidopsis sesquiterpene synthase genes. Our data suggest biological functions for At4g13280 and At4g13300 in the rhizosphere with additional roles in aerial plant tissues.  相似文献

The short stem and midrib (ssm) mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana show both semi-dwarf and wavy leaf phenotypes due to defects in the elongation of the stem internodes and leaves. Moreover, these abnormalities cannot be recovered by exogenous phytohormones. ssm was originally identified as a single recessive mutant of the ecotype Columbia (Col-0), but genetic crossing experiments have revealed that this mutant phenotype is restored by another gene that is functional in the ecotype Landsberg erecta (Ler) and not in Col-0. Map-based cloning of the gene that is defective in ssm mutants has uncovered a small deletion in the sixth intron of a gene encoding a syntaxin, VAM3/SYP22, which has been implicated in vesicle transport to the vacuole. This mutation appears to cause a peptide insertion in the deduced VAM3/SYP22 polypeptide sequence due to defective splicing of the shortened sixth intron. Significantly, when compared with the wild-type Ler genome, the wild-type Col-0 genome has a single base pair deletion causing a frameshift mutation in SYP23, a gene with the highest known homology to VAM3/SYP22. These findings suggest that VAM3/SYP22 and SYP23 have overlapping functions and that the vesicle transport mediated by these syntaxins is important for shoot morphogenesis.  相似文献

Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype Columbia (Col-0) is susceptible to the yellow strain of cucumber mosaic virus [CMV(Y)], whereas ecotype C24 is resistant to CMV(Y). Comprehensive analyses of approximately 9,000 expressed sequence tags in ecotypes Col-0 and C24 infected with CMV(Y) suggested that the gene expression patterns in the two ecotypes differed. At 6, 12, 24 and 48 h after CMV(Y) inoculation, the expression of 6, 30, 85 and 788 genes, respectively, had changed in C24, as opposed to 20, 80, 53 and 150 genes in CMV(Y)-infected Col-0. At 12, 24 and 48 h after CMV(Y) inoculation, the abundance of 3, 10 and 55 mRNAs was altered in both ecotypes. However, at 6 h after CMV(Y) inoculation, no genes were co-induced or co-suppressed in both ecotypes. This differential pattern of gene expression between the two ecotypes at an early stage of CMV(Y) infection indicated that the cellular response for resistance may differ from that resulting in susceptibility at the level detectable by the macroarray. According to the expression pattern at various stages of infection, the expression of many genes could be grouped into clusters using cluster analysis. About 100 genes that encode proteins involved in chloroplast function were categorized into clusters 1 and 4, which had a differentially lower expression in CMV(Y)-inoculated C24. The expression of various genes encoding proteins in the endomembrane system belonged to clusters 2 and 4, which were induced in CMV(Y)-inoculated C24 and Col-0 leaves. Characterization of CMV(Y)-altered gene expression in the two ecotypes will contribute to a better understanding of the molecular basis of compatible and incompatible interactions between virus and host plants.  相似文献

Although developmentally regulated disease resistance has been observed in a variety of plant-pathogen interactions, the molecular basis of this phenomenon is not well understood. Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype Columbia-0 (Col-0) expresses a developmentally regulated resistance to Hyaloperonospora parasitica isolate Emco5. Col-0 seedlings support profuse mycelial growth and asexual spore formation in the cotyledons. In contrast, Emco5 growth and reproduction is dramatically (but not completely) restricted in the first set of true leaves. Subsequent leaves exhibit progresssively increased resistance. This adult resistance is strongly suppressed by expression of the salicylic acid-degrading transgene NahG and by loss-of-function mutations in the defense-response regulators PAD4, NDR1, RAR1, PBS3, and NPR1. In contrast to Col-0, the Wassilewskija-0 (Ws-0) ecotype supports profuse growth of Emco5 at all stages of development. Gene-dosage experiments and segregation patterns indicate that adult susceptibility in Ws-0 is incomepletely dominant to adult resistance in Col-0. Genetic mapping in a Col x Ws F2 population revealed a major locus on the bottom arm of chromosome 5, which we named RPP31. Analysis of T-DNA insertion lines indicated that the Columbia allele of RPP8, though tightly linked to RPP31, is not necessary for adult resistance.  相似文献

Xanthomonas campestris pathovar campestris causes black rot, a vascular disease on cruciferous plants, including Arabidopsis thaliana. The gene XC1553 from X. campestris pv. campestris strain 8004 encodes a protein containing leucine-rich repeats (LRRs) and appears to be restricted to strains of X. campestris pv. campestris. LRRs are found in a number of type III-secreted effectors in plant and animal pathogens. These prompted us to investigate the role of the XC1553 gene in the interaction between X. campestris pv. campestris and A. thaliana. Translocation assays using the hypersensitive-reaction-inducing domain of X. campestris pv. campestris AvrBs1 as a reporter revealed that XC1553 is a type III effector. Infiltration of Arabidopsis leaf mesophyll with bacterial suspensions showed no differences between the wild-type strain and an XC1553 gene mutant; both strains induced disease symptoms on Kashmir and Col-0 ecotypes. However, a clear difference was observed when bacteria were introduced into the vascular system by piercing the central vein of leaves. In this case, the wild-type strain 8004 caused disease on the Kashmir ecotype, but not on ecotype Col-0; the XC1553 gene mutant became virulent on the Col-0 ecotype and still induced disease on the Kashmir ecotype. Altogether, these data show that the XC1553 gene, which was renamed avrACXcc8004, functions as an avirulence gene whose product seems to be recognized in vascular tissues.  相似文献

Following completion of Arabidopsis thaliana sequencing projects, multiple resistance gene analogues (RGAs) have been identified. In this work a review of the current state of knowledge available in protein databases and scientific articles is presented. Putative resistance genes were identified by using BLAST searches as well as HMM fingerprints (the latter to infer existence of characteristic domains). The representation of all five classes of putative resistance genes in Col-0 ecotype was examined, along with the statistics on RGAs present on all five chromosomes of Arabidopsis thaliana.  相似文献

In this study we describe a novel gene, which was isolated in an attempt to search for specific plant resistance genes of Arabidopsis against isolates of the phytopathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris. The gene was cloned by differential screening of a genomic library of the Xcc 750-resistant ecotype Col-0, using cDNA populations derived from ecotype Col-0 and the Xcc 750-susceptible ecotype Oy-0. The isolated gene, CXc750, is differentially expressed in ecotypes of Arabidopsis thaliana. In addition, although highly expressed in uninfected plants, gene expression increases in response to pathogen attack. CXc750 potentially codes for a small, basic protein of about 10 kDa. The predicted protein product contains a potential signal leader peptide at the amino-terminal end but no ER retention sequence and no further transmembrane domain. This indicates that the gene product is transported to other compartments or out of the cell.The possible function of CXc750 as a member of the plant defense response system is discussed.  相似文献

Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype Columbia plants (Col-0) treated with plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) Serattia marcescens strain 90-166 and Bacillus pumilus strain SE34 had significantly reduced symptom severity by Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). In some cases, CMV accumulation was also significantly reduced in systemically infected leaves. The signal transduction pathway(s) associated with induced resistance against CMV by strain 90-166 was determined using mutant strains and transgenic and mutant Arabidopsis lines. NahG plants treated with strains 90-166 and SE34 had reduced symptom severity indicating that the resistance did not require salicylic acid (SA). Strain 90-166 naturally produces SA under iron-limited conditions. Col-0 and NahG plants treated with the SA-deficient mutant, 90-166-1441, had significantly reduced CMV symptom severity with reduced virus accumulation in Col-0 plants. Another PGPR mutant, 90-166-2882, caused reduced disease severity in Col-0 and NahG plants. In a time course study, strain 90-166 reduced virus accumulation at 7 but not at 14 and 21 days post-inoculation (dpi) on the non-inoculated leaves of Col-0 plants. NahG and npr1-1 plants treated with strain 90-166 had reduced amounts of virus at 7 and 14 dpi but not at 21 dpi. In contrast, no decrease in CMV accumulation occurred in strain 90-166-treated fad3-2 fad7-2 fad8 plants. These data indicate that the protection of Arabidopsis against CMV by strain 90-166 follows a signaling pathway for virus protection that is independent of SA and NPR1, but dependent on jasmonic acid.  相似文献

Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV)-Cg is able to propagate and multiply systemically to high levels in Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype Col-0. In this study, we obtained a Cg mutant, Cgk1, which expresses a coat protein with a truncated carboxyl terminus. Interestingly, Cgk1 induced necrosis that resembled the hypersensitive response and caused more pronounced disease symptoms than wild type Cg in Arabidopsis Col-0 plants. A reactive oxidative burst occurred prior to this necrosis. We found that expression of the pathogenesis-related gene PR-1 was induced by Cgk1 infection, and also by infection with wild type Cg, but only in npr1-2 mutant plants, not in NahG transgenic plants. These results suggested that PR-1 expression is dependent on the salicylic acid signaling pathway, but is independent of NPR1.  相似文献

The NBS-LRR (nucleotide-binding site plus leucine-rich repeat) genes represent the major class of disease resistance genes in flowering plants and comprise 166 genes in the ecotype Col-0 of Arabidopsis thaliana. NBS-LRR genes are organized in single-gene loci, clusters, and superclusters. Phylogenetic analysis reveals nine monophyletic clades and a few phylogenetic orphans. Most clusters contain only genes from the same phylogenetic lineage, reflecting their origin from the exchange of sequence blocks as a result of intralocus recombination. Multiple duplications increased the number of NBS-LRR genes in the progenitors of Arabidopsis, suggesting that the present complexity in Col-0 may derive from as few as 17 progenitors. The combination of physical and phylogenetic analyses of the NBS-LRR genes makes it possible to detect relatively recent gene rearrangements, which increased the number of NBS-LRR genes by about 50, but which are almost never associated with large segmental duplications. The identification of 10 heterogeneous clusters containing members from different clades demonstrates that sequence sampling between different resistance gene loci and clades has occurred. Such events may have taken place early during flowering plant evolution, but they generated modules that have been duplicated and remobilized also more recently.  相似文献

Irradiation of Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes C24, Wassilewskija (Ws) and Columbia-0 (Col-0) with supplementary ultraviolet-A+B (UV-A+B) radiation revealed ecotype-specific differences in expression of the gene for the pathogenesis-related protein PR-5. C24 showed an increased expression level of PR-5 (5- and 20-fold higher compared with Col-0 and Ws, respectively). Expression of other molecular markers such as CHS (encoding chalcone synthase), MEB5.2 [encoding a gene strongly up-regulated by ultraviolet-B (UV-B)] and PYROA [encoding a pyridoxine (Vitamin B6) biosynthesis enzyme] only showed slight differences between ecotypes. Oxidative stress during UVA+B exposure was monitored by staining for H2O2. This analysis also revealed important ecotype-specific differences. 'H2O2 hot spots' were found in C24, whereas an even distribution of H2O2 was found in Ws and Col-0. Necrotic lesions also appeared on C24 leaves after prolonged UV-B exposure. There was a reverse correlation between the H2O2 steady-state concentration and the PR-5 gene expression; Ws showed the highest level of H2O2 accumulation but the lowest expression level of the PR-5 gene. Furthermore, application of paraquat on the rosettes led to similar PR-5 expression and H2O2 accumulation patterns as were found after UV-A+B irradiation. The observed ecotypic differences were also reflected in a statistically significant UV-B-dependent decrease in biomass, rosette size and leaf area for Ws, but not for C24 and Col-0. Our results show that a significant ecotype-specific genetic variability in general UV-B responses in Arabidopsis exists. Moreover, the signal transduction or gene regulation pathway for PR-5 differs from the other molecular markers used in this study.  相似文献
