Understanding how various forms of phosphorus stress affect microbiome functions and boost plant disease resistance: Insights from metagenomic analysis. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 904:166899. [PMID: 37683845 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.166899] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2023] [Revised: 09/02/2023] [Accepted: 09/05/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023]
Abstract
The plant's response to phosphorus (P) starvation suppresses its immunity and regulates rhizosphere microbial colonization. However, the impact of various P forms on plant disease resistance and microbial composition remains underreported. This paper examines the soybean rhizosphere microbiome facing co-stress from Fusarium oxysporum and diverse P forms. Macrogenomic analysis evaluates whether P addition enhances plant disease resistance and rhizosphere microbial function, and if such effects relate to P forms. Results show that different P forms mitigate F. oxysporum-induced plant inhibition by promoting P turnover. P forms predominantly affect microbial composition, followed by soil and plant properties. In soybean, the phosphate transport strategy (ugpA/Q) was selected to maintain high P to enhance immunity in the KH2PO4 treatment, while organo-P mineralization (phnH/F/W/G) was selected for superphosphate treatment. The Frankiales, a P-turnover microorganism, copiotrophic microorganisms, and indicator bacteria of plant properties, initially increase after F. oxysporum inoculation and then decrease post P addition, regardless of P forms. Additionally, the rhizosphere microbial community's metabolic activities and compounds significantly aid soybean defense against F. oxysporum, with functional types depending on P forms. Therefore, these findings establish a novel approach to enhance host defense against soil-borne diseases through P nutrition regulation to mediate host-driven metabolic activities of microbial communities.

Abstract
The fruits of the tomato crop (Solanum lycopersicum L.) are increasingly consumed by humans worldwide. Due to their rich nutritional quality, pharmaceutical properties, and flavor, tomato crops have gained a salient role as standout crops among other plants. Traditional breeding and applied functional research have made progress in varying tomato germplasms to subdue biotic and abiotic stresses. Proteomic investigations within a span of few decades have assisted in consolidating the functional genomics and transcriptomic research. However, due to the volatility and dynamicity of proteins in the regulation of various biosynthetic pathways, there is a need for continuing research in the field of proteomics to establish a network that could enable a more comprehensive understanding of tomato growth and development. With this view, we provide a comprehensive review of proteomic studies conducted on the tomato plant in past years, which will be useful for future breeders and researchers working to improve the tomato crop.

Abstract
Phytopathogenic strains of Fusarium oxysporum Schlecht exhibit clear host specificity, which appears to be a persistent characteristic and a dependable base for the forma specialis system of these pathogens. Here, we report an altered host specificity of the F. oxysporum f.sp. radicis-cucumerinum strain V03-2 g (Forc V03-2 g) - a causative agent of cucumber root-rot, the clonal derivates of which acquired the ability to infect tomato plants. Since the clonal derivates of Forc V03-2 g with transformed host specificity preserved their ability to parasitize on cucumber plants, the changes that occurred can be classified as broadening of host specificity. To our knowledge, this is the first observation of pathogenicity changes in formae speciales of F. oxysporum. The clonal derivates acquired could be used to trace genetic determinants of the host specificity of phytopathogenic strains of F. oxysporum.

Abstract
The disease Fusarium crown and root rot (FCRR), caused mainly by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici (FORL), seriously affects commercial tomato [Solanum lycopersicum (Sl)] yields. However, the genes that offer resistance to FORL are limited and the mechanism of resistance to FCRR is poorly understood. Lectin receptor-like kinases (LecRKs) play critical roles in defensive responses and immunity in many plant species; however, whether specific LecRKs are involved in the response of tomato plants to FORL is unclear. Here, we report that the expression of SlLecRK1/Solyc09g011070.1 was obviously induced by the infection of FORL. Biochemical and cell biological data revealed that SlLecRK1 is an active kinase that is located at the cell membrane, while real-time quantitative PCR data suggested that SlLecRK1 is mainly expressed in stems and roots. Genetic studies showed that overexpression of SlLecRK1 significantly improved the resistance of tomato plants to FORL but did not cause visible changes in plant growth and development compared with wild-type control plants. RNA-Seq data suggested that the positive effects of SlLecRK1 on the resistance of tomato plants to FORL occur mainly by triggering the expression of ethylene-responsive transcription factor (ERF) genes. Together, our findings not only identify a new target for the development of FCRR-resistant tomato varieties, they also demonstrate a molecular mechanism linking SlLecRK1 and ERFs in regulating the immune responses of tomato plants to FORL.

Abstract
Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici (Forl) causes Fusarium crown and root rot of tomato, leading to severe yield losses. Chinese chive and the Chinese chive extract reportedly have antifungal effects. In this study, Chinese chive extract treatments inhibited Forl spore germination, with an EC50 of 0.40 g ml-1 in vitro. Furthermore, the mechanism underlying the fungicidal effects of the Chinese chive extract was analyzed by RNA sequencing. A total of 1252 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were detected, of which 396 were upregulated and 856 were downregulated. The DEGs were related to starch and sucrose metabolism, amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism, galactose metabolism, fatty acid metabolism, sphingolipid metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism, peroxisomes, ribosome biogenesis in eukaryotes, mismatch repair, and the phosphatidylinositol signaling system, implying these pathways contribute to the fungicidal activity of the Chinese chive extract. The qRT-PCR results verified the accuracy of the RNA sequencing data. Thus, the Chinese chive extract can inhibit Forl spore germination by affecting spore nutrient metabolism.

Abstract
Modern plant breeding heavily relies on the use of molecular markers. In recent years, next generation sequencing (NGS) emerged as a powerful technology to discover DNA sequence polymorphisms and generate molecular markers very rapidly and cost effectively, accelerating the plant breeding programmes. A single dominant locus, Frl, in tomato provides resistance to the fungal pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici (FORL), causative agent of Fusarium crown and root rot. In this study, we describe the generation of molecular markers associated with the Frl locus. An F2 mapping population between an FORL resistant and a susceptible cultivar was generated. NGS technology was then used to sequence the genomes of a susceptible and a resistant parent as well the genomes of bulked resistant and susceptible F2 lines. We zoomed into the Frl locus and mapped the locus to a 900 kb interval on chromosome 9. Polymorphic single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the interval were identified and markers co-segregating with the resistant phenotype were generated. Some of these markers were tested successfully with commercial tomato varieties indicating that they can be used for marker-assisted selection in large-scale breeding programmes.

Abstract
Constant global warming is one of the most detrimental environmental factors for agriculture causing significant losses in productivity as heat stress (HS) conditions damage plant growth and reproduction. In flowering plants such as tomato, HS has drastic repercussions on development and functionality of male reproductive organs and pollen. Response mechanisms to HS in tomato anthers and pollen have been widely investigated by transcriptomics; on the contrary, exhaustive proteomic evidences are still lacking. In this context, a differential proteomic study was performed on tomato anthers collected from two genotypes (thermo-tolerant and thermo-sensitive) to explore stress response mechanisms and identify proteins possibly associated to thermo-tolerance. Results showed that HS mainly affected energy and amino acid metabolism and nitrogen assimilation and modulated the expression of proteins involved in assuring protein quality and ROS detoxification. Moreover, proteins potentially associated to thermo-tolerant features, such as glutamine synthetase, S-adenosylmethionine synthase and polyphenol oxidase, were identified.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. radicis-lycopersici (FORL) is one of the most destructive necrotrophic pathogens affecting tomato crops, causing considerable field and greenhouse yield losses. Despite such major economic impact, little is known about the molecular mechanisms regulating Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. radicis-lycopersici resistance in tomato. RESULTS A transcriptomic experiment was carried out in order to investigate the main mechanisms of FORL response in resistant and susceptible isogenic tomato lines. Microarray analysis at 15 DPI (days post inoculum) revealed a distinct gene expression pattern between the two genotypes in the inoculated vs non-inoculated conditions. A model of plant response both for compatible and incompatible reactions was proposed. In particular, in the incompatible interaction an activation of defense genes related to secondary metabolite production and tryptophan metabolism was observed. Moreover, maintenance of the cell osmotic potential after the FORL challenging was mediated by a dehydration-induced protein. As for the compatible interaction, activation of an oxidative burst mediated by peroxidases and a cytochrome monooxygenase induced cell degeneration and necrosis. CONCLUSIONS Our work allowed comprehensive understanding of the molecular basis of the tomato-FORL interaction. The result obtained emphasizes a different transcriptional reaction between the resistant and the susceptible genotype to the FORL challenge. Our findings could lead to the improvement in disease control strategies.

Abstract
Fusarium wilt (FW) caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. niveum (FON) is the major soilborne disease of watermelon (Citrullus lanatus L.). The development and deployment of resistant cultivars is generally considered to be an effective approach to control FW. In this study, an F8 population consisting of 103 recombinant inbred lines derived from a cross between the cultivar 97103 and a wild accession PI 296341-FR was used for FON race 1 and race 2 fungal inoculations. One major QTL on chromosome 1 for FON race 1 resistance was detected with a logarithm of odds of 13.2 and explained phenotypic variation R2 = 48.1 %; two QTLs of FON race 2 resistance on chromosomes 9 and 10 were discovered based on the high-density integrated genetic map we constructed. The nearest molecular marker should be useful for marker-assisted selection of FON race 1 and race 2 resistance. One receptor kinase, one glucan endo-1,3-β-glucosidase precursors and three acidic chitinase located in the FON-1 QTL genomic region. In Qfon2.1 QTL region, one lipoxygenase gene, five receptor-like kinases and four glutathione S-transferase genes are discovered. One arginine biosynthesis bifunctional protein, two receptor kinase proteins and one lipid-transfer protein located in Qfon2.2 QTL region. Based on SNP analysis by using 20 re-sequenced accessions of watermelon and 231-plant F2 population generated from Black Diamond × Calhoun Grey, we developed a SNP marker Chr1SNP_502124 for FON-1 detection.

Abstract
Diseases caused by soil-borne pathogens result worldwide in significant yield losses in economically important crops. In contrast to foliar diseases, relatively little is known about the nature of root defenses against these pathogens. This review summarizes the current knowledge on root infection strategies, root-specific preformed barriers, pathogen recognition, and defense signaling. Studies reviewed here suggest that many commonalities as well as differences exist in defense strategies employed by roots and foliar tissues during pathogen attack. Importantly, in addition to pathogens, plant roots interact with a plethora of non-pathogenic and symbiotic microorganisms. Therefore, a good understanding of how plant roots interact with the microbiome would be particularly important to engineer resistance to root pathogens without negatively altering root-beneficial microbe interactions.

Abstract
Grafting can enhance the tolerance of vegetable crops to soilborne diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate whether different tomato scion-rootstock combinations may affect the plant susceptibility to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici (FORL), the causal agent of crown and root rot. A proteomic approach was used to investigate whenever the protein repertoire of the rootstock can be modified by FORL infection, in relation to cultivar susceptibility/tolerance to the disease. To this purpose, plants of tomato hybrids with different vigor, "Costoluto Genovese" (less vigorous) and "Kadima" (more vigorous), were grafted onto "Cuore di Bue" and "Natalia" hybrids, sensitive and tolerant versus FORL infections, respectively. Disease symptoms, plant biomasses, and protein expression patterns were evaluated 45 days after FORL inoculation. The extent of vascular discoloration caused by FORL in tomato plants grafted on "Natalia" rootstock (0.12-0.37 cm) was significantly lower than that of plants grafted on sensitive "Cuore di Bue" (1.75-6.50 cm). FORL symptoms significantly differed between "Costoluto Genovese" and "Kadima" scions only when grafted on sensitive rootstock. Shoot FW of non-inoculated "Kadima"/"Cuore di Bue" combination was 35% lower than "Kadima"/"Natalia", whereas no difference was manifested in inoculated plants. Shoot FW of inoculated "Costoluto Genovese"/"Cuore di Bue" combination was decreased of 39%, whereas that of "Costoluto Genovese"/"Natalia" of 11%, compared to control plants. Proteomic results showed a higher representation of proteins associated with pathogen infection in the tolerant rootstock, compared to the sensitive one, meaning a direct involvement of plant defence mechanisms in the tomato response to the pathogen challenge.

A major QTL associated with Fusarium oxysporum race 1 resistance identified in genetic populations derived from closely related watermelon lines using selective genotyping and genotyping-by-sequencing for SNP discovery. TAG. THEORETICAL AND APPLIED GENETICS. THEORETISCHE UND ANGEWANDTE GENETIK 2014; 127:2105-15. [PMID: 25104326 DOI: 10.1007/s00122-014-2363-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2014] [Accepted: 07/13/2014] [Indexed: 05/26/2023]
Abstract
A major quantitative trait locus (QTL) for Fusarium oxysporum Fr. f. sp. niveum race 1 resistance was identified by employing a "selective genotyping" approach together with genotyping-by-sequencing technology to identify QTLs and single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with the resistance among closely related watermelon genotypes. Fusarium wilt is a major disease of watermelon caused by the soil-borne fungus Fusarium oxysporum Schlechtend.:Fr. f. sp. niveum (E.F. Sm.) W.C. Snyder & H.N. Hans (Fon). In this study, a genetic population of 168 F3 families (24 plants in each family) exhibited continuous distribution for Fon race 1 response. Using a "selective genotyping" approach, DNA was isolated from 91 F2 plants whose F3 progeny exhibited the highest resistance (30 F2 plants) versus highest susceptibility (32 F2 plants), or moderate resistance to Fon race 1 (29 F2 plants). Genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) technology was used on these 91 selected F2 samples to produce 266 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers, representing the 11 chromosomes of watermelon. A major quantitative trait locus (QTL) associated with resistance to Fon race 1 was identified with a peak logarithm of odds (LOD) of 33.31 and 1-LOD confidence interval from 2.3 to 8.4 cM on chromosome 1 of the watermelon genetic map. This QTL was designated "Fo-1.1" and is positioned in a genomic region where several putative pathogenesis-related or putative disease-resistant gene sequences were identified. Additional independent, but minor QTLs were identified on chromosome 1 (LOD 4.16), chromosome 3 (LOD 4.36), chromosome 4 (LOD 4.52), chromosome 9 (LOD 6.8), and chromosome 10 (LOD 5.03 and 4.26). Following the identification of a major QTL for resistance using the "selective genotyping" approach, all 168 plants of the F 2 population were genotyped using the SNP nearest the peak LOD, confirming the association of this SNP marker with Fon race 1 resistance. The results in this study should be useful for further elucidating the mechanism of resistance to Fusarium wilt and in the development of molecular markers for use in breeding programs of watermelon.
