Changes in some physiological and biochemical characteristics of cabbage (cv. Slava) seedling roots in response to inoculation with the phytopathogen Xanthomonas campestrisand its surface and extracellular substances were evaluated. Seven days after the inoculation, the growth of the roots was slightly suppressed and they contained increased amounts of peroxidase. The effect of the lipopolysaccharides stripped from the cell surface or isolated from the culture liquid of X. campestriswas similar to that of the whole cells of the phytopathogen. The bacterial lectin isolated from the cell surface material did not induce any defense response in cabbage plants but, presumably, could play a role in the contact interactions between bacteria and plants. 相似文献

Piriformospora indica, an endophytic fungus of the order Sebacinales, interacts with the roots of a large variety of plant species. We compared the interaction of this fungus with Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris subsp. chinensis) and Arabidopsis seedlings. The development of shoots and roots of Chinese cabbage seedlings was strongly promoted by P. indica and the fresh weight of the seedlings increased approximately twofold. The strong stimulation of root hair development resulted in a bushy root phenotype. The auxin level in the infected Chinese cabbage roots was twofold higher compared with the uncolonized controls. Three classes of auxin-related genes, which were upregulated by P. indica in Chinese cabbage roots, were isolated from a double-subtractive expressed sequence tag library: genes for proteins related to cell wall acidification, intercellular auxin transport carrier proteins such as AUX1, and auxin signal proteins. Overexpression of B. campestris BcAUX1 in Arabidopsis strongly promoted growth and biomass production of Arabidopsis seedlings and plants; the roots were highly branched but not bushy when compared with colonized Chinese cabbage roots. This suggests that BcAUX1 is a target of P. indica in Chinese cabbage. P. indica also promoted growth of Arabidopsis seedlings but the auxin levels were not higher and auxin genes were not upregulated, implying that auxin signaling is a more important target of P. indica in Chinese cabbage than in Arabidopsis. The fungus also stimulated growth of Arabidopsis aux1 and aux1/axr4 and rhd6 seedlings. Furthermore, a component in an exudate fraction from P. indica but not auxin stimulated growth of Chinese cabbage and Arabidopsis seedlings. We propose that activation of auxin biosynthesis and signaling in the roots might be the cause for the P. indica-mediated growth phenotype in Chinese cabbage. 相似文献

The persistence and movement of strain JS414 of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, which was genetically engineered to bioluminesce, were monitored during a limited field introduction. Bioluminescence and traditional dilution plate counts were determined. Strain JS414 was applied to cabbage plants and surrounding soil by mist inoculation, by wound inoculation, by scattering infested debris among plants, and by incorporating bacteria into the soil. Bioluminescent X. campestris pv. campestris was detected in plant samples and in the rhizosphere up to 6 weeks after inoculation. Movement to uninoculated plants was detected on one occasion, but movement from the immediate release area was not detected. Strain JS414 was detected in soil samples beneath mist- and wound-inoculated plants only at intentionally infested locations and in aerial samples only on the day of inoculation. Our bioluminescence methods proved to be as sensitive as plating methods for detecting the genetically engineered microorganisms in environmental samples. Our results demonstrate that transgenic incorporation of the luxCDABE operon provides a non-labor-intensive, sensitive detection method for monitoring genetically engineered microorganisms in nature. 相似文献

BcNRT1, a plasma membrane-localized nitrate transporter from non-heading Chinese cabbage 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A nitrate transporter, BcNRT1, was isolated from non-heading Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris ssp. chinensis Makino) cultivar 'Suzhouqing'. The full-length cDNA was obtained using the rapid amplification of cDNA ends technique and contains an open reading frame of 1,770?bp that predicts a protein of 589 acid residues that possesses 12 putative transmembrane domains. Using the GUS marker gene driven by the BcNRT1 promoter, we found BcNRT1 expression to be concentrated in primary and lateral root tips and in shoots of transgenic Arabidopsis plants. The YFP fused to BcNRT1 and transformed into cabbage protoplasts indicated that BcNRT1 was localized to the plasma membrane. The expression of BcNRT1 in roots was induced by exposure to 25?mM nitrate, and the BcNRT1 cRNA heterologously expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes showed nitrate conductance when nitrate was included in the medium. Moreover, mutant chl1-5 plants harboring 35S::BcNRT1 showed sensitivity to chlorate treatment and exhibited restored nitrate uptake. In conclusion, the results indicate that BcNRT1 functions as a low affinity nitrate transporter in non-heading Chinese cabbage. 相似文献

Dispersal and persistence of a pathogenic strain of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris , genetically engineered to bioluminesce, was followed in and on host and non-host plants in the field environment. Black rot susceptible cabbage plants were mist inoculated with the bioluminescent strain only, or were mist inoculated with X. campestris pv. vesicatoria or a weakly pathogenic strain of X. c. campestris 1 week before challenge inoculation with the bioluminescent strain. Growth of the bioluminescent strain was detected with a low-light, charge-coupled device camera or through bioluminescence measurements of broth-enrichment cultures of leaf disk samples. Bioluminescent X. c. campestris could often be observed as populations on symptomless leaves or in lesions, and persisted as a vascular endophyte for more than 6 months throughout the winter growing season. Dispersal to cruciferous and non-cruciferous weeds was frequently detected. Pre-inoculation with X. c. vesicatoria or the weakly pathogenic X. c. campestris did not significantly affect the movement and persistence of the bioluminescent strain nor reduce the incidence of black rot disease. 相似文献

Black rot of cruciferous plants, caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris , causes severe losses in agriculture around the world. This disease affects several cultures, including cabbage and broccoli, among others. Proteome studies of this bacterium have been reported; however, most of them were performed using the bacterium grown under culture media conditions. Recently, we have analyzed the proteome of X. campestris pv. campestris during the interaction with the susceptible cultivar of Brassica oleracea and several proteins were identified. The objective of the present study was to analyze the expressed proteins of X. campestris pv. campestris during the interaction with the resistant cultivar of B. oleracea . The bacterium was infiltrated in the leaves of the resistant plant and recovered for protein extraction and two-dimensional electrophoresis. The protein profile was compared with that of the bacterium isolated from the susceptible host and the results obtained revealed a group of proteins exclusive to the resistant interaction. Among the proteins identified in this study were plant and bacterium proteins, some of which were exclusively expressed during the resistant interaction. 相似文献

The culture liquids of three Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris strains were found to possess proteolytic activity. The culture liquid of strain B-611 with the highest proteolytic activity was fractionated by salting-out with ammonium sulfate, gel filtration, and ion-exchange chromatography. The electrophoretic analysis of active fractions showed the presence of two proteases in the culture liquid of strain B-611, the major of which being serine protease. The treatment of cabbage seedlings with the proteases augmented the activity of peroxidase in the cabbage roots by 28%. 相似文献

Summary Genetically transformed cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata) roots were obtained after inoculation with two engineered Agrobacterium rhizogenes strains, each harbouring a plant selectable marker gene in their T-DNA. Axenic root clones resistant to kanamycin or hygromycin B were established, most of which did not exhibit the phenotypic characteristics of Ri-transformed roots. Shoot regeneration was induced from roots after treatment with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). The resulting plants exhibited various phenotypes: some looked normal, while others showed the transformed phenotype observed in other species. Direct evidence for genetic transformation was obtained by molecular hybridization. The trait was transmitted to the progeny. Transformed cabbage plants can be obtained within 6 months using this approach. 相似文献

It has been demonstrated that for a nonpathogenic, leaf-associated bacterium, effectiveness in the control of bacterial speck of tomato is correlated with the similarity in the nutritional needs of the nonpathogenic bacterium and the pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato. This relationship was investigated further in this study by using the pathogen Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria, the causal agent of bacterial spot of tomato, and a collection of nonpathogenic bacteria isolated from tomato foliage. The effects of inoculation of tomato plants with one of 34 nonpathogenic bacteria prior to inoculation with the pathogen X. campestris pv. vesicatoria were quantified by determining (i) the reduction in disease severity (number of lesions per square centimeter) in greenhouse assays and (ii) the reduction in leaf surface pathogen population size (log(10) of the number of CFU per leaflet) in growth chamber assays. Nutritional similarity between the nonpathogenic bacteria and X. campestris pv. vesicatoria was quantified by using either niche overlap indices (NOI) or relatedness in cluster analyses based upon in vitro utilization of carbon or nitrogen sources reported to be present in tomato tissues or in Biolog GN plates. In contrast to studies with P. syringae pv. tomato, nutritional similarity between the nonpathogenic bacteria and the pathogen X. campestris pv. vesicatoria was not correlated with reductions in disease severity. Nutritional similarity was also not correlated with reductions in pathogen population size. Further, the percentage of reduction in leaf surface pathogen population size was not correlated with the percentage of reduction in disease severity, suggesting that the epiphytic population size of X. campestris pv. vesicatoria is not related to disease severity and that X. campestris pv. vesicatoria exhibits behavior in the phyllosphere prior to lesion formation that is different from that of P. syringae pv. tomato. 相似文献

Nicotiana benthamiana leaves display a visible plant cell death response when infiltrated with a high titer inoculum of the non-host pathogen, Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria (Xcv). This visual phenotype was used to identify overlapping cosmid clones from a genomic cosmid library constructed from the Xcv strain, GM98-38. Individual cosmid clones from the Xcv library were conjugated into X. campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) and exconjugants were scored for an altered visual high titer inoculation response in N. benthamiana. The molecular characterization of the cosmid clones revealed that they contained a novel gene, xopX, that encodes a 74-kDa type III secretion system (TTSS) effector protein. Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression of XopX in N. benthamiana did not elicit the plant cell death response although detectable XopX protein was produced. Interestingly, the plant cell death response occurred when the xopX Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression construct was co-inoculated with strains of either XcvDeltaxopX or Xcc, both lacking xopX. The co-inoculation complementation of the plant cell death response also depends on whether the Xanthomonas strains contain an active TTSS. Transgenic 35S-xopX-expressing N. benthamiana plants also have the visible plant cell death response when inoculated with the non-xopX-expressing strains XcvDeltaxopX and Xcc. Unexpectedly, transgenic 35S-xopX N. benthamiana plants displayed enhanced susceptibility to bacterial growth of Xcc as well as other non-xopX-expressing Xanthomonas and Pseudomonas strains. This result is also consistent with the increase in bacterial growth on wild type N. benthamiana plants observed for Xcc when XopX is expressed in trans. Furthermore, XopX contributes to the virulence of Xcv on host pepper (Capsicum annuum) and tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum) plants. We propose that the XopX bacterial effector protein targets basic innate immunity in plants, resulting in enhanced plant disease susceptibility. 相似文献

Dark septate endophytic fungi (DSE) may have an important functional relationship with host plants, but these functions and
the colonization process remain unknown. We made microscopic observations of the growth of an endophytic hyphomycete in Chinese
cabbage roots to understand its colonization process. This hyphomycete was Heteroconium chaetospira, a suspected DSE. Three weeks post inoculation, some hyphae became irregularly lobed and formed microsclerotia within host
epidermal cells of healthy plants. In stunted plants, hyphae formed closely packed masses of fungal cells within host epidermal
cells, but conidiophores rarely broke through the cell walls to produce conidia.

Auxin-conjugate hydrolysis in Chinese cabbage: Characterization of an amidohydrolase and its role during infection with clubroot disease 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Auxin conjugates play a role in the regulation of free indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) content in plants. Not much is known about the enzymes involved in either conjugate synthesis or hydrolysis. In this study we have isolated and characterized an auxin conjugate hydrolase from Chinese cabbage seedlings and investigated it during the development of both the Chinese cabbage plants and the clubroot disease. The hydrolase isolated from light- and dark-grown seedlings accepted the amide conjugates indole-3-acetic acid-alanine (IAAla), IAA-phenylalanine (IAPhe), but not IAA-aspartate (IAAsp) as substrates. We also found a substantial amount of hydrolysis of an ester conjugate (IAA-glucose, IAGlu) in our enzyme preparation. The tentative reaction product IAA was identified by HPLC and subsequent GC-MS analysis. The pH optima for the different substrates were not identical, suggesting several hydrolase isoforms. After gel filtration chromatography we found at least two peaks containing different hydrolase isoforms. The isoform, which converted IAGlu to IAA, exhibited a molecular mass of ca 63 kDa, and an isoform of ca 21 kDa converted IAAla and IAPhe. The increased free IAA content in clubroot-diseased roots of Brassicaceae can be due to either de novo synthesis or release of IAA from conjugates. To answer this question free, ester- and amide-bound IAA was measured in 24- and 30-day-old leaves and roots of healthy and Plasmodiophora brassicae-infected Chinese cabbage, and the hydrolase activity with different substrates measured in the same tissues. The amide conjugates were dramatically enhanced in infected roots, whereas free IAA was only slightly enhanced compared to the control tissue. Hydrolase activity was also enhanced in clubbed roots, but the substrate specificity differed from that found in the seedlings. Especially, IAAsp hydrolysis was induced after inoculation with P. brassicae. We conclude that different auxin conjugates can be hydrolyzed at different developmental stages or under stress. 相似文献

cgMT1 is a metallothionein (MT)-like gene that was isolated from a cDNA library of young nitrogen-fixing nodules resulting from the symbiotic interaction between Frankia spp. and the actinorhizal tree Casuarina glauca. cgMT1 is highly transcribed in the lateral roots and nitrogen-fixing cells of actinorhizal nodules; it encodes a class I type 1 MT. To obtain insight into the function of cgMT1, we studied factors regulating the expression of the MT promoter region (PcgMT1) using a beta-glucuronidase (gus) fusion approach in transgenic plants of Arabidopsis thaliana. We found that copper, zinc, and cadmium ions had no significant effect on the regulation of PcgMT1-gus expression whereas wounding and H2O2 treatments led to an increase in reporter gene activity in transgenic leaves. Strong PcgMT1-gus expression also was observed when transgenic plants were inoculated with a virulent strain of the bacterial pathogen Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris. Transgenic Arabidopsis plants expressing cgMT1 under the control of the constitutive 35S promoter were characterized by reduced accumulation of H2O2 when leaves were wounded and by increased susceptibility to the bacterial pathogen X. campestris. These results suggest that cgMT1 could play a role during the oxidative response linked to biotic and abiotic stresses. 相似文献

Y. enterocolitica and Y. pseudotuberculosis have been experimentally found to penetrate into plants (cabbage, salad, pea, oat) from infected soil and water and to remain in different plant organs (roots, seeds, leaves) up to 30 days (the term of observation). The processes of S-R dissociation in Yersinia cultures isolated from plants, as well as changes in some enzymatic properties, have been established. In the test on Infusoria the cytotoxic action of strains isolated from plants has been noted. The possible role of plants in carrying pathogenic bacteria from the soil to the surface ecological systems and the subsequent infection of animals and humans is discussed. 相似文献

A technique was developed for the reliable inoculation of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris into the cabbage host, in a manner which simulates a natural process of penetration. By introducing the inoculum into guttation droplets on the leaf margin, the bacteria are taken into the plant via the hydathodes, thereby avoiding mechanical injury to the plant and the possibility of producing artefacts. This technique, while being highly efficient, possesses several advantages over commonly used methods of inoculation. 相似文献
