Wang H, Chen Q, Feng W. The Emerging Role of 2OGDs as Candidate Targets for Engineering Crops with Broad-Spectrum Disease Resistance. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 13:1129. [PMID: 38674537 PMCID: PMC11054871 DOI: 10.3390/plants13081129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2024] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024]
Abstract
Plant diseases caused by pathogens result in a marked decrease in crop yield and quality annually, greatly threatening food production and security worldwide. The creation and cultivation of disease-resistant cultivars is one of the most effective strategies to control plant diseases. Broad-spectrum resistance (BSR) is highly preferred by breeders because it confers plant resistance to diverse pathogen species or to multiple races or strains of one species. Recently, accumulating evidence has revealed the roles of 2-oxoglutarate (2OG)-dependent oxygenases (2OGDs) as essential regulators of plant disease resistance. Indeed, 2OGDs catalyze a large number of oxidative reactions, participating in the plant-specialized metabolism or biosynthesis of the major phytohormones and various secondary metabolites. Moreover, several 2OGD genes are characterized as negative regulators of plant defense responses, and the disruption of these genes via genome editing tools leads to enhanced BSR against pathogens in crops. Here, the recent advances in the isolation and identification of defense-related 2OGD genes in plants and their exploitation in crop improvement are comprehensively reviewed. Also, the strategies for the utilization of 2OGD genes as targets for engineering BSR crops are discussed.

Abstract
Poplar (Populus) is a genus of woody plants of great economic value. Due to the growing economic importance of poplar, there is a need to ensure its stable growth by increasing its resistance to pathogens. Genetic engineering can create organisms with improved traits faster than traditional methods, and with the development of CRISPR/Cas-based genome editing systems, scientists have a new highly effective tool for creating valuable genotypes. In this review, we summarize the latest research data on poplar diseases, the biology of their pathogens and how these plants resist pathogens. In the final section, we propose to plant male or mixed poplar populations; consider the genes of the MLO group, transcription factors of the WRKY and MYB families and defensive proteins BbChit1, LJAMP2, MsrA2 and PtDef as the most promising targets for genetic engineering; and also pay attention to the possibility of microbiome engineering.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The complex systemic responses of tree species to fight pathogen infection necessitate attention due to the potential for yield protection in forestry. RESULTS In this paper, both the localized and systemic responses of model plants, such as Arabidopsis and tobacco, are reviewed. These responses were compared to information available that investigates similar responses in woody plant species and their key differences were highlighted. In addition, tree-specific responses that have been documented were summarised, with the critical responses still relying on certain systemic acquired resistance pathways. Importantly, coniferous species have been shown to utilise phenolic compounds in their immune responses. Here we also highlight the lack of focus on systemic induced susceptibility in trees, which can be important to forest health. CONCLUSIONS This review highlights the possible mechanisms of systemic response to infection in woody plant species, their potential applications, and where research may be best focused in future.

Abstract
This work reports a first-of-its-kind hybrid wearable physicochemical sensor suite that we call PlantFit for simultaneous measurement of two key phytohormones, salicylic acid, and ethylene, along with vapor pressure deficit and radial growth of stem in live plants. The sensors are developed using a low-cost and roll-to-roll screen printing technology. A single integrated flexible patch that contains temperature, humidity, salicylic acid, and ethylene sensors, is installed on the leaves of live plants. The strain sensor with in-built pressure correction capability is wrapped around the plant stem to provide pressure-compensated stem diameter measurements. The sensors provide real-time information on plant health under different amounts of water stress conditions. The sensor suite is installed on bell pepper plants for 40 days and measurements of salicylic acid, ethylene, temperature, humidity, and stem diameter are recorded daily. In addition, sensors are installed on different parts of the same plant to investigate the spatiotemporal dynamics of water transport and phytohormone responses. Subsequent correlation and principal component analyses demonstrate the strong association between hormone levels, vapor pressure deficit, and water transport in the plant. Our findings suggest that the mass deployment of PlantFit in agricultural settings will aid growers in detecting water stress/deficiency early and in implementing early intervention measures to reduce stress-induced yield decline.

Abstract
Long-lived tree species need to cope with changing environments and pathogens during their lifetime. Fungal diseases cause damage to trees growth and forest nurseries. As model system for woody plants, poplars are also hosts of a large variety of fungus. The defense strategies to fungus are generally associated with the type of fungus, therefore, the defense strategies of poplar against necrotrophic and biotrophic fungus are different. Poplars initiate constitutive defenses and induced defenses based on recognition of the fungus, hormone signaling network cascades, activation of defense-related genes and transcription factors and production of phytochemicals. The means of sensing fungus invasion in poplars are similar with herbs, both of which are mediated by receptor proteins and resistance (R) proteins, leading to pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) and effector-triggered immunity (ETI), but poplars have evolved some unique defense mechanisms compared with Arabidopsis due to their longevity. In this paper, current researches on poplar defensive responses to necrotrophic and biotrophic fungus, which mainly include the physiological and genetic aspects, and the role of noncoding RNA (ncRNA) in fungal resistance are reviewed. This review also provides strategies to enhance poplar disease resistance and some new insights into future research directions.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 225:1562-1574.

Abstract
The SABATH methyltransferases catalyze methylation of small-molecule metabolites, which participate in plant growth, development and defense response. Given lack of genome-wide studies on gymnosperms SABATH family, the formation and functional differentiation mechanism of the Larix kaempferi SABATH gene family was systematically and exhaustively explored by analyzing gene sequence characteristics, phylogenetic relationship, expression pattern, and enzyme activities. Phylogenetic analysis showed that 247 SABATH genes from 14 land plants were divided into 4 clades, and lineage-specific gene duplication events were important factors that contributed to the evolution of the SABATH gene family in gymnosperms and angiosperms. Substrate specificity analysis of 18 Larix SABATH proteins showed that LaSABATHs could catalyze O-methylation of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and farnesic acid (FA), N-methylation of theobromine, and S-methylation of thiobenzoic acid. Furthermore, only LaSABATH2 and LaSABATH29 could catalyze O-methylation of FA, and only LaSABATH30 could catalyze O-methylation of IAA. Homology modeling and molecular docking studies showed the hydrogen bond formed between the His188 of LaSABATH30 and IAA and the noticeable hydrophobic IAA-binding pocket may be helpful for IAA methylation. In this study, identification of proteins with significant specific catalytic activity toward FA and IAA provided high-quality candidate genes for forest genetics and breeding.

PLANT CELL REPORTS 2022; 41:2305-2320.

Abstract
Overexpression of the salicylic acid binding protein 2 (SABP2) gene from Tobacco results in enhanced tolerance to Huanglongbing (HLB; citrus greening disease) in transgenic sweet oranges. Huanglongbing (HLB), the most destructive citrus disease, is caused by Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CaLas). Currently, no cure for this disease exists, and all commercially planted cultivars are highly susceptible. Salicylic Acid Binding Protein 2 (SABP2) is a well-characterized protein essential for establishing systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in tobacco. The constitutive over expression of SABP2 from tobacco (NtSABP2) in 'Hamlin' sweet orange resulted in the production of several transgenic lines with variable transcript levels. Transient expression of the NtSABP2-EGFP fusion protein in Nicotiana benthamiana plants demonstrated that NtSABP2 was cytosolic in its subcellular localization. In a long-term field study, we identified a SABP2 transgenic line with significantly reduced HLB symptoms that maintained a consistently low CaLas titer. Transcriptome analysis of this selected transgenic line demonstrated upregulation of several genes related to plant defense and SAR pathways. Genes, such as NPR family genes and those coding for monooxygenases and lipoxygenases, were upregulated in the 35S-NtSABP2 overexpressing line and might be candidates for incorporation into our citrus improvement program.

Abstract
Salicylic acid (SA) is generally considered to be a critical signal transduction factor in plant defenses against pathogens. It could be converted to methyl salicylate (MeSA) for remote signals by salicylic acid methyltransferase (SAMT) and converted back to SA by SA-binding protein 2 (SABP2). In order to verify the function of SAMT in poplar plants, we isolated the full-length cDNA sequence of PagSAMT from 84K poplar and cultivated PagSAMT overexpression lines (OE-2 isolate) to test its role in SA-mediated defenses against the virulent fungal pathogen Botryosphaeria dothidea. Our results showed that after inoculation with B. dothidea, OE-2 significantly increased MeSA content and reduced SA content which is associated with increased expression of SAMT in both infected and uninfected leaves, when compared against the wild type (WT). Additionally, SAMT overexpression plant lines (OE-2) exhibited higher expression of pathogenesis-related genes PR-1 and PR-5, but were still susceptible to B. dothidea suggesting that in poplar SA might be responsible for resistance against this pathogen. This study expands the current understanding of joint regulation of SAMT and SABP2 and the balance between SA and MeSA in poplar responses to pathogen invasion.

Abstract
Poplar anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is one of the most important diseases widely distributed in poplar-growing areas in China, causing serious economic and ecological losses. In this study, three poplar species showed different resistance to poplar anthracnose: Populus × canadensis was resistant, Populus tomentosa was susceptible, and P. × beijingensis showed intermediate resistance. However, it remains uncertain whether phenolic compounds in poplar are involved in this resistance. Therefore, we determined the concentrations of phenolic compounds and their antifungal activity. Before and after the C. gloeosporioides inoculation, 20 phenolic compounds were detected in P. × canadensis and the number increased from 12 to 14 in P. × beijingensis but decreased from seven to four in P. tomentosa. Thus, phenolic compounds may be positively correlated with the degree of disease resistance. We selected seven phenolic compounds for further analysis, which varied considerably in content after inoculation with C. gloeosporioides. These seven compounds were salicin, arbutin, benzoic acid, salicylic acid, chlorogenic acid, ferulic acid, and naringenin, which helped poplar trees to limit the growth of C. gloeosporioides and differed in their antifungal effects, with phenolic acids having the strongest inhibitory effect. In addition, the optimal concentrations of different substances varied. We demonstrate that these phenolic compounds produced by poplar do play a certain role in the process of poplar resistance to anthracnose. These findings lay a foundation for future research into the antifungal mechanism of poplar trees and may be useful for enhancing the prevention and control of poplar anthracnose.

Abstract
Seed germination is an important phase transitional period of angiosperm plants during which seeds are highly sensitive to different environmental conditions. Although seed germination is under the regulation of salicylic acid (SA) and other hormones, the molecular mechanism underlying these regulations remains mysterious. In this study, we determined the expression of SA methyl esterase (MES) family genes during seed germination. We found that MES7 expression decreases significantly in imbibed seeds, and the dysfunction of MES7 decreases SA content. Furthermore, MES7 reduces and promotes seed germination under normal and salt stress conditions, respectively. The application of SA restores the seed germination deficiencies of mes7 mutants under different conditions. Taking together, our observations uncover a MeSA hydrolytic enzyme, MES7, regulates seed germination via altering SA titer under normal and abiotic stress conditions.

Gao X, Guo P, Wang Z, Chen C, Ren Z. Transcriptome profiling reveals response genes for downy mildew resistance in cucumber. PLANTA 2021; 253:112. [PMID: 33914134 DOI: 10.1007/s00425-021-03603-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2020] [Accepted: 03/22/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
We discovered a potential defense pathway of cucumber to downy mildew. The signaling that activates the pathways of ROS and lignin accumulation may play an important role in the defense response. Many resistance genes were identified by transcriptome analysis. Downy mildew (DM), caused by Pseudoperonospora cubensis, is one of the most destructive diseases and causes severe yield losses of cucumber. However, the genes and pathways involved in regulating DM resistance were still poorly understood. In our study, we observed that the highly sensitive inbred line 53 (IL53) exhibited more severe disease symptoms than the highly resistant inbred line 51 (IL51) under P. cubensis infection. Furthermore, lignin, limiting the germination and extension of P. cubensis, and H2O2, as a signaling molecule during the resistant process, were both shown to increase, indicating that the signaling that activates these pathways might be responsible for the resistance divergence between IL51 and IL53. Transcriptome analysis, using the resistant and susceptible pools in F2 populations with IL51 and IL53 as parents, showed that a series of differentially expressed genes was involved in multiple functions of defense response: pathogen-associated molecular pattern recognition, signal transduction, reactive oxygen species and lignin accumulation, and transcription regulators. Combining physiological data with transcriptomes, we predicted a potential molecular mechanism of cucumber resistance to DM. Our research provided a foundation for further studies on the mechanism of cucumber resistance to DM.

Abstract
Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) grow as saprotrophs in soil and interact with plants, forming mutualistic associations with roots of many economically and ecologically important forest tree genera. EMF ensheath the root tips and produce an extensive extramatrical mycelium for nutrient uptake from the soil. In contrast to other mycorrhizal fungal symbioses, EMF do not invade plant cells but form an interface for nutrient exchange adjacent to the cortex cells. The interaction of roots and EMF affects host stress resistance but uncovering the underlying molecular mechanisms is an emerging topic. Here, we focused on local and systemic effects of EMF modulating defenses against insects or pathogens in aboveground tissues in comparison with arbuscular mycorrhizal induced systemic resistance. Molecular studies indicate a role of chitin in defense activation by EMF in local tissues and an immune response that is induced by yet unknown signals in aboveground tissues. Volatile organic compounds may be involved in long-distance communication between below- and aboveground tissues, in addition to metabolite signals in the xylem or phloem. In leaves of EMF-colonized plants, jasmonate signaling is involved in transcriptional re-wiring, leading to metabolic shifts in the secondary and nitrogen-based defense metabolism but cross talk with salicylate-related signaling is likely. Ectomycorrhizal-induced plant immunity shares commonalities with systemic acquired resistance and induced systemic resistance. We highlight novel developments and provide a guide to future research directions in EMF-induced resistance.

Tieton obtained using long-read and Hi-C sequencing. HORTICULTURE RESEARCH 2020; 7:122. [PMID: 32821405 PMCID: PMC7395734 DOI: 10.1038/s41438-020-00343-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2020] [Revised: 04/29/2020] [Accepted: 05/12/2020] [Indexed: 05/25/2023]
Abstract
Sweet cherry (Prunus avium) is an economically significant fruit species in the genus Prunus. However, in contrast to other important fruit trees in this genus, only one draft genome assembly is available for sweet cherry, which was assembled using only Illumina short-read sequences. The incompleteness and low quality of the current sweet cherry draft genome limit its use in genetic and genomic studies. A high-quality chromosome-scale sweet cherry reference genome assembly is therefore needed. A total of 65.05 Gb of Oxford Nanopore long reads and 46.24 Gb of Illumina short reads were generated, representing ~190x and 136x coverage, respectively, of the sweet cherry genome. The final de novo assembly resulted in a phased haplotype assembly of 344.29 Mb with a contig N50 of 3.25 Mb. Hi-C scaffolding of the genome resulted in eight pseudochromosomes containing 99.59% of the bases in the assembled genome. Genome annotation revealed that more than half of the genome (59.40%) was composed of repetitive sequences, and 40,338 protein-coding genes were predicted, 75.40% of which were functionally annotated. With the chromosome-scale assembly, we revealed that gene duplication events contributed to the expansion of gene families for salicylic acid/jasmonic acid carboxyl methyltransferase and ankyrin repeat-containing proteins in the genome of sweet cherry. Four auxin-responsive genes (two GH3s and two SAURs) were induced in the late stage of fruit development, indicating that auxin is crucial for the sweet cherry ripening process. In addition, 772 resistance genes were identified and functionally predicted in the sweet cherry genome. The high-quality genome assembly of sweet cherry obtained in this study will provide valuable genomic resources for sweet cherry improvement and molecular breeding.

Abstract
Poplar canker, mainly caused by Botryosphaeria species, is a serious disease that has resulted in the reduced productivity and death of poplar worldwide. Different Populus species have varied resistance levels to poplar canker; however, whether phenolic compounds in poplar are involved in this resistance remains uncertain. Here, we determined the concentrations of phenolic compounds and their antifungal activities in canker-resistant P. tomentosa and canker-susceptible P. beijingensis. We identified 29 phenolic compounds with significantly different concentrations between the two species. Salicylic acid (SA), tremuloidin, salicin, and poplin were dominant in P. tomentosa, while benzoic acid (BA) and catechol were dominant in P. beijingensis. These six phenolic compounds were further tested for antifungal activities. SA, BA, and catechol showed significant antifungal activities against Botryosphaeria dothidea, while the other three compounds showed no activity. As BA or catechol can be converted in plants to SA, which is a remote signaling molecule that plays an important role in plant defenses, we presumed that the resistance of P. tomentosa was initiated by SA, while the susceptibility of P. beijingensis resulted from the absence of SA. Further studies are required to confirm this hypothesis. These results provide a foundation for future research on the disease-resistance mechanisms of poplar.

Abstract
Our previous study has indicated that a long noncoding RNA (lncRNA), lncRNA39026, can be responsive to Phytophthora infestans infection. However, the function and regulation mechanism of lncRNA39026 during tomato resistance to P. infestans are unknown. In this study, an lncRNA39026 sequence was cloned from tomato Zaofen No. 2, and this sequence contained an endogenous target mimicry for miR168a, which might suppress the expression of miR168a. LncRNA39026 was strongly downregulated at 3 h in the tomato plants infected with P. infestans, and its expression level displayed a negative correlation with the expression level of miR168a and a positive correlation with the expression levels of SlAGO1 genes (target gene of miR168a) upon P. infestans infection. Tomato plants in which lncRNA39026 was overexpressed displayed enhanced resistance to P. infestans, decreased level of miR168a, and increased level of SlAGO1, whereas the resistance was impaired, level of miR168a was increased, and level of SlAGO1 was decreased after lncRNA39026 silencing. In addition, lncRNA39026 could also induce the expression of pathogenesis-related (PR) genes, as shown by increased and decreased expression levels of PR genes in tomato plants with overexpressed and silenced lncRNA39026, respectively. The result demonstrated that lncRNA39026 might function to decoy miR168a and affect the expression of PR genes in tomato plants, increasing resistance to disease.

Abstract
Salicylic acid (SA) is a phytohormone that plays important roles in many aspects of plant life, notably in plant defenses against pathogens. Key mechanisms of SA signal transduction pathways have now been uncovered. Even though details are still missing, we understand how SA production is regulated and which molecular machinery is implicated in the control of downstream transcriptional responses. The NPR1 pathway has been described to play the main role in SA transduction. However, the mode of SA perception is unclear. NPR1 protein has been shown to bind SA. Nevertheless, NPR1 action requires upstream regulatory events (such as a change in cell redox status). Besides, a number of SA-induced responses are independent from NPR1. This shows that there is more than one way for plants to perceive SA. Indeed, multiple SA-binding proteins of contrasting structures and functions have now been identified. Yet, all of these proteins can be considered as candidate SA receptors and might have a role in multinodal (decentralized) SA input. This phenomenon is unprecedented for other plant hormones and is a point of discussion of this review.
