BMC PLANT BIOLOGY 2024; 24:367. [PMID: 38711041 DOI: 10.1186/s12870-024-05033-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/08/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The formation of shoots plays a pivotal role in plant organogenesis and productivity. Despite its significance, the underlying molecular mechanism of de novo regeneration has not been extensively elucidated in Capsicum annuum 'Dempsey', a bell pepper cultivar. To address this, we performed a comparative transcriptome analysis focusing on the differential expression in C. annuum 'Dempsey' shoot, callus, and leaf tissue. We further investigated phytohormone-related biological processes and their interacting genes in the C. annuum 'Dempsey' transcriptome based on comparative transcriptomic analysis across five species. RESULTS We provided a comprehensive view of the gene networks regulating shoot formation on the callus, revealing a strong involvement of hypoxia responses and oxidative stress. Our comparative transcriptome analysis revealed a significant conservation in the increase of gene expression patterns related to auxin and defense mechanisms in both callus and shoot tissues. Consequently, hypoxia response and defense mechanism emerged as critical regulators in callus and shoot formation in C. annuum 'Dempsey'. Current transcriptome data also indicated a substantial decline in gene expression linked to photosynthesis within regenerative tissues, implying a deactivation of the regulatory system governing photosynthesis in C. annuum 'Dempsey'. CONCLUSION Coupled with defense mechanisms, we thus considered spatial redistribution of auxin to play a critical role in the shoot morphogenesis via primordia outgrowth. Our findings shed light on shoot formation mechanisms in C. annuum 'Dempsey' explants, important information for regeneration programs, and have broader implications for precise molecular breeding in recalcitrant crops.

Transcriptomics and virus-induced gene silencing identify defence-related genes during Ralstonia solanacearum infection in resistant and susceptible tobacco. Genomics 2024; 116:110784. [PMID: 38199265 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygeno.2024.110784] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Revised: 01/03/2024] [Accepted: 01/07/2024] [Indexed: 01/12/2024]
Abstract
Bacterial wilt (BW) caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is a globally prevalent bacterial soil-borne disease. In this study, transcriptome sequencing were subjected to roots after infection with the R. solanacearum in the resistant and susceptible tobacco variety. DEGs that responded to R. solanacearum infection in both resistant and susceptible tobacco contributed to pectinase and peroxidase development and were enriched in plant hormone signal transduction, signal transduction and MAPK signalling pathway KEGG terms. Core DEGs in the resistant tobacco response to R. solanacearum infection were enriched in cell wall, membrane, abscisic acid and ethylene terms. qRT-PCR indicated that Nitab4.5_0004899g0110, Nitab4.5_0004234g0080 and Nitab4.5_0001439g0050 contributed to the response to R. solanacearum infection in different resistant and susceptible tobacco. Silencing the p450 gene Nitab4.5_0001439g0050 reduced tobacco resistance to bacterial wilt. These results improve our understanding of the molecular mechanism of BW resistance in tobacco and solanaceous plants.

Yan S, Wang Y, Yu B, Gan Y, Lei J, Chen C, Zhu Z, Qiu Z, Cao B. A putative E3 ubiquitin ligase substrate receptor degrades transcription factor SmNAC to enhance bacterial wilt resistance in eggplant. HORTICULTURE RESEARCH 2024; 11:uhad246. [PMID: 38239808 PMCID: PMC10794948 DOI: 10.1093/hr/uhad246] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 11/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/22/2024]
Abstract
Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is a severe soil-borne disease globally, limiting the production in Solanaceae plants. SmNAC negatively regulated eggplant resistance to Bacterial wilt (BW) though restraining salicylic acid (SA) biosynthesis. However, other mechanisms through which SmNAC regulates BW resistance remain unknown. Here, we identified an interaction factor, SmDDA1b, encoding a substrate receptor for E3 ubiquitin ligase, from the eggplant cDNA library using SmNAC as bait. SmDDA1b expression was promoted by R. solanacearum inoculation and exogenous SA treatment. The virus-induced gene silencing of the SmDDA1b suppressed the BW resistance of eggplants; SmDDA1b overexpression enhanced the BW resistance of tomato plants. SmDDA1b positively regulates BW resistance by inhibiting the spread of R. solanacearum within plants. The SA content and the SA biosynthesis gene ICS1 and signaling pathway genes decreased in the SmDDA1b-silenced plants but increased in SmDDA1b-overexpression plants. Moreover, SmDDB1 protein showed interaction with SmCUL4 and SmDDA1b and protein degradation experiments indicated that SmDDA1b reduced SmNAC protein levels through proteasome degradation. Furthermore, SmNAC could directly bind the SmDDA1b promoter and repress its transcription. Thus, SmDDA1b is a novel regulator functioning in BW resistance of solanaceous crops via the SmNAC-mediated SA pathway. Those results also revealed a negative feedback loop between SmDDA1b and SmNAC controlling BW resistance.
