为了探讨拟南芥O-岩藻糖基转移酶(SPINDLY)在病原体相关分子模式诱导抗性中的作用,该研究以SPINDLY缺失拟南芥突变体spy-3为实验材料,从叶片表型、病情指数、病菌定殖量以及丁香假单胞菌(Pst DC3000)关键基因的表达水平等指标,系统考察了SPINDLY在壳寡糖诱导拟南芥抗Pst DC3000中的功能。结果显示:(1)spy-3突变体比野生型更易被Pst DC3000侵染。(2)与病菌侵染组相比,壳寡糖预处理明显缓解植株叶片黄化现象,显著降低Pst DC3000的定殖量。(3)壳寡糖预处理的spy-3植株中水杨酸和茉莉酸途径相关基因的表达量及水杨酸和茉莉酸含量均较病菌侵染组明显升高。(4)壳寡糖在spy-3中的诱抗效果与野生型相比无明显差别。研究表明,SPINDLY在植物先天免疫过程发挥重要作用,但并不影响壳寡糖的诱导抗性。 相似文献

使用两种瞬时表达方法研究Profilin-1(PRF1)的亚细胞定位,并比较了2种瞬时表达体系在亚细胞定位研究中的优缺点。利用拟南芥幼叶作为材料,提取叶片的RNA,采用特异性引物RT-PCR的方法克隆PRF1基因,连接到p CAMBIA1300-GFP的改造载体上,成功的构建p CAMBIA1300-GFP-PRF1的表达载体。然后分别利用PEG转化拟南芥原生质体、农杆菌浸染烟草叶片两种技术进行了瞬时表达,并在激光共聚焦显微镜下观察绿色荧光蛋白(GFP)融合蛋白的表达。研究结果表明,将PRF1基因导入拟南芥的原生质体和烟草表皮细胞后,融合蛋白绿色荧光均能被观察到,PRF1基因与GFP融合蛋白的产物在烟草表皮细胞中主要定位在细胞质和外周细胞器中,在拟南芥的原生质体中的细胞核和细胞质中都有定位。两种不同的瞬时表达体系中PRF1蛋白的定位出现了不同,这可能与同源或异源表达的植物的特性相关。 相似文献

The phytopathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri is responsible for the canker disease affecting citrus plants throughout the world. Here, we have evaluated the role of bacterial attachment and biofilm formation in leaf colonization during canker development on lemon leaves. Crystal violet staining and confocal laser scanning microscopy analysis of X. axonopodis pv. citri strains expressing the green fluorescent protein were used to evaluate attachment and biofilm formation on abiotic and biotic (leaf) surfaces. Wild-type X. axonopodis pv. citri attached to and formed a complex, structured biofilm on glass in minimal medium containing glucose. Similar attachment and structured biofilm formation also were seen on lemon leaves. An X. axonopodis pv. citri gumB mutant strain, defective in production of the extracellular polysaccharide xanthan, did not form a structured biofilm on either abiotic or biotic surfaces. In addition, the X. axonopodis pv. citri gumB showed reduced growth and survival on leaf surfaces and reduced disease symptoms. These findings suggest an important role for formation of biofilms in the epiphytic survival of X. axonopodis pv. citri prior to development of canker disease. 相似文献

Xanthomonas citri ssp. citri (Xcc) causes citrus canker, one of the most economically damaging diseases affecting citrus worldwide. Biofilm formation is important for the pathogen to survive epiphytically in planta prior to the induction of canker symptoms. In this study, two EZ-Tn5 transposon mutants of Xcc strain 306, affected in biofilm formation, were isolated; subsequent analyses led to the identification of a novel gene locus XAC3596 (designated as wxacO), encoding a putative transmembrane protein, and the rfbC gene, encoding a truncated O-antigen biosynthesis protein. Sodium dodecylsulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) biosynthesis was affected in both wxacO and rfbC mutants. The wxacO mutant was impaired in the formation of a structured biofilm on glass or host plant leaves, as shown in confocal laser scanning microscopy analysis of strains containing a plasmid expressing the green fluorescent protein. Both wxacO and rfbC mutants were more sensitive than the wild-type strain to different environmental stresses, and more susceptible to the antimicrobial peptide polymyxin B. The two mutants were attenuated in swimming motility, but not in flagellar formation. The mutants also showed reduced virulence and decreased growth on host leaves when spray inoculated. The affected phenotypes of the wxacO and rfbC mutants were complemented to wild-type levels by the intact wxacO and rfbC genes, respectively. This report identifies a new gene influencing LPS production by Xcc. In addition, our results suggest that a structurally intact LPS is critical for survival in the phyllosphere and for the virulence of Xcc. 相似文献

Citrus canker, caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc), is one of the most destructive diseases of citrus. Progress of breeding citrus canker-resistant varieties is modest due to limited resistant germplasm resources and lack of candidate genes for genetic manipulation. The objective of this study is to establish a novel heterologous pathosystem between Xcc and the well-established model plant Arabidopsis thaliana for defense mechanism dissection and resistance gene identification. Our results indicate that Xcc bacteria neither grow nor decline in Arabidopsis, but induce multiple defense responses including callose deposition, reactive oxygen species and salicylic aicd (SA) production, and defense gene expression, indicating that Xcc activates non-host resistance in Arabidopsis. Moreover, Xcc-induced defense gene expression is suppressed or attenuated in several well-characterized SA signaling mutants including eds1, pad4, eds5, sid2, and npr1. Interestingly, resistance to Xcc is compromised only in eds1, pad4, and eds5, but not in sid2 and npr1. However, combining sid2 and npr1 in the sid2npr1 double mutant compromises resistance to Xcc, suggesting genetic interactions likely exist between SID2 and NPR1 in the non-host resistance against Xcc in Arabidopsis. These results demonstrate that the SA signaling pathway plays a critical role in regulating non-host defense against Xcc in Arabidopsis and suggest that the SA signaling pathway genes may hold great potential for breeding citrus canker-resistant varieties through modern gene transfer technology. 相似文献

Xanthomonas citri ssp. citri (Xcc) causes canker disease in citrus, and biofilm formation is critical for the disease cycle. OprB (Outer membrane protein B) has been shown previously to be more abundant in Xcc biofilms compared with the planktonic state. In this work, we showed that the loss of OprB in an oprB mutant abolishes bacterial biofilm formation and adherence to the host, and also compromises virulence and efficient epiphytic survival of the bacteria. Moreover, the oprB mutant is impaired in bacterial stress resistance. OprB belongs to a family of carbohydrate transport proteins, and the uptake of glucose is decreased in the mutant strain, indicating that OprB transports glucose. Loss of OprB leads to increased production of xanthan exopolysaccharide, and the carbohydrate intermediates of xanthan biosynthesis are also elevated in the mutant. The xanthan produced by the mutant has a higher viscosity and, unlike wild‐type xanthan, completely lacks pyruvylation. Overall, these results suggest that Xcc reprogrammes its carbon metabolism when it senses a shortage of glucose input. The participation of OprB in the process of biofilm formation and virulence, as well as in metabolic changes to redirect the carbon flux, is discussed. Our results demonstrate the importance of environmental nutrient supply and glucose uptake via OprB for Xcc virulence. 相似文献

Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac) is the causal agent of citrus bacterial canker, an economically important disease to world citrus industry. To monitor the infection process of Xac in different citrus plants, the enhanced green florescent protein (EGFP) visualizing system was constructed to visualize the propagation and localization in planta. First, the wild-type Xac was isolated from the diseased leaves of susceptible 'Bingtang' sweet orange, and then the isolated Xac was labeled with EGFP by triparental mating. After PCR identification, the growth kinetics and pathogenicity of the transformants were analyzed in comparison with the wild-type Xac. The EGFP-labeled bacteria were inoculated by spraying on the surface and infiltration in the mesophyll of 'Bingtang' sweet orange leaves. The bacterial cell multiplication and diffusion processes were observed directly under confocal laser scanning microscope at different intervals after inoculation. The results indicated that the EGFP-labeled Xac releasing clear green fluorescence light under fluorescent microscope showed the infection process and had the same pathogenicity as the wild type to citrus. Consequently, the labeled Xac demonstrated the ability as an efficient tool to monitor the pathogen infection. 相似文献

Abstract A series of specimens of the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri , collected from the Northern Territory (NT) in 1915 was recently rediscovered in the Natural History Museum, London. Surveys were conducted in 2002 on suitable hosts in the locality of the 1915 collections to see if the infestation had persisted. These failed to detect either D. citri or the bacterium that it transmits and that causes huanglongbing disease in citrus. It is presumed that D. citri was eradicated fortuitously by the removal of all citrus plants above latitude 19°S during an eradication program for citrus canker in the NT from 1916 until 1922. 相似文献

Copper sprays have been widely used for control of endemic citrus canker caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri in citrus-growing areas for more than 2 decades. Xanthomonas alfalfae subsp. citrumelonis populations were also exposed to frequent sprays of copper for several years as a protective measure against citrus bacterial spot (CBS) in Florida citrus nurseries. Long-term use of these bactericides has led to the development of copper-resistant (Cu(r)) strains in both X. citri subsp. citri and X. alfalfae subsp. citrumelonis, resulting in a reduction of disease control. The objectives of this study were to characterize for the first time the genetics of copper resistance in X. citri subsp. citri and X. alfalfae subsp. citrumelonis and to compare these organisms to other Cu(r) bacteria. Copper resistance determinants from X. citri subsp. citri strain A44(pXccCu2) from Argentina and X. alfalfae subsp. citrumelonis strain 1381(pXacCu2) from Florida were cloned and sequenced. Open reading frames (ORFs) related to the genes copL, copA, copB, copM, copG, copC, copD, and copF were identified in X. citri subsp. citri A44. The same ORFs, except copC and copD, were also present in X. alfalfae subsp. citrumelonis 1381. Transposon mutagenesis of the cloned copper resistance determinants in pXccCu2 revealed that copper resistance in X. citri subsp. citri strain A44 is mostly due to copL, copA, and copB, which are the genes in the cloned cluster with the highest nucleotide homology (≥ 92%) among different Cu(r) bacteria. 相似文献

BackgroundXanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc), the causal agent of citrus canker is maintained as an epiphyte on citrus leaves until entering the plant tissue. During epiphytic survival, bacteria may encounter low water availability that challenges the infection process. Proteomics analyses of Xcc under saline stress, mimicking the conditions found during epiphytic survival, showed increased abundance of a putative NAD(P)H dehydrogenase encoded by XAC2229.MethodsExpression levels of XAC2229 and a Xcc mutant in XAC2229 were analyzed in salt and oxidative stress and during plant-pathogen interaction. An Escherichia coli expressing XAC2229 was obtained, and the role of this protein in oxidative stress resistance and in reactive oxygen species production was studied. Finally, Xac2229 protein was purified, spectrophotometric and cofactor analyses were done and enzymatic activities determined.ResultsXAC2229 was expressed under salt stress and during plant-pathogen interaction. ΔXAC2229 mutant showed less number of cankers and impaired epiphytic survival than the wild type strain. ΔXAC2229 survived less in the presence of H2O2 and produced more reactive oxygen species and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances than the wild type strain. Similar results were observed for E. coli expressing XAC2229. Xac2229 is a FAD containing flavoprotein, displays diaphorase activity with an optimum at pH 6.0 and has quinone reductase activity using NADPH as an electron donor.ConclusionsA FAD containing flavoprotein from Xcc is a new NADPH quinone reductase required for bacterial virulence, particularly in Xcc epiphytic survival on citrus leaves.General significanceA novel protein involved in the worldwide disease citrus canker was characterized. 相似文献
