Identification and phylogenetic analysis of a CC-NBS-LRR encoding gene assigned on chromosome 7B of wheat.

ABSTRACT: Hexaploid wheat displays limited genetic variation. As a direct A and B genome donor of hexaploid wheat, tetraploid wheat represents an important gene pool for cultivated bread wheat. Many disease resistant genes express conserved domains of the nucleotide-binding site and leucine-rich repeats (NBS-LRR). In this study, we isolated a CC-NBS-LRR gene locating on chromosome 7B from durum wheat variety Italy 363, and designated it TdRGA-7Ba. Its open reading frame was 4014 bp, encoding a 1337 amino acid protein with a complete NBS domain and 18 LRR repeats, sharing 44.7% identity with the PM3B protein. TdRGA-7Ba expression was continuously seen at low levels and was highest in leaves. TdRGA-7Ba has another allele TdRGA-7Bb with a 4 bp deletion at position +1892 in other cultivars of tetraploid wheat. In Ae. speltoides, as a B genome progenitor, both TdRGA-7Ba and TdRGA-7Bb were detected. In all six species of hexaploid wheats (AABBDD), only TdRGA-7Bb existed. Phylogenic analysis showed that all TdRGA-7Bb type genes were grouped in one sub-branch. We speculate that TdRGA-7Bb was derived from a TdRGA-7Ba mutation, and it happened in Ae. speltoides. Both types of TdRGA-7B participated in tetraploid wheat formation. However, only the TdRGA-7Bb was retained in hexaploid wheat.

Project description:Powdery mildew caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt) is a destructive disease of wheat throughout the world. Host resistance is considered the most sustainable way to control this disease. Powdery mildew resistance gene Pm2b was mapped to the same genetic interval with Pm2a and PmCH1357 cloned previously, but showed different resistance spectra from them, indicating that they might be caused by different resistance genes or alleles. In this study, Pm2b was delimited to a 1.64 Mb physical interval using a large segregating population containing 4,354 F2:3 families of resistant parent KM2939 and susceptible cultivar Shimai 15. In this interval, TraesCS5D03G0111700 encoding the coiled-coil nucleotide-binding site leucine-rich repeat protein (CC-NBS-LRR) was determined as the candidate gene of Pm2b. Silencing by barley stripe mosaic virus-induced gene silencing (BSMV-VIGS) technology and two independent mutants analysis in KM2939 confirmed the candidate gene TraesCS5D03G0111700 was Pm2b. The sequence of Pm2b was consistent with Pm2a/PmCH1357. Subcellular localization showed Pm2b was located on the cell nucleus and plasma membrane. Pm2b had the highest expression level in leaves and was rapidly up-regulated after inoculating with Bgt isolate E09. The yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) and luciferase complementation imaging assays (LCI) showed that PM2b could self-associate through the NB domain. Notably, we identified PM2b interacting with the transcription factor TaWRKY76-D, which depended on the NB domain of PM2b and WRKY domain of TaWRKY76-D. TaWRKY76-D negatively regulated the resistance to powdery mildew in wheat. The specific KASP marker K529 could take the advantage of high-throughput and high-efficiency for detecting Pm2b and be useful in molecular marker assisted-selection breeding. In conclusion, cloning and disease resistance mechanism analysis of Pm2b provided an example to emphasize a need of the molecular isolation of resistance genes, which has implications in marker assisted wheat breeding.

Project description:The NBS-LRR (NLR) gene family plays a pivotal role in regulating disease defense response in plants. Cucumber is one of the most important vegetable crops in the world, and various plant diseases, including powdery mildew (PM), cause severe losses in both cucumber productivity and quality annually. To characterize and understand the role of the CC-NBS-LRR(CNL) family of genes in disease defense response in cucumber plants, we performed bioinformatical analysis to characterize these genes systematically. We identified 33 members of the CNL gene family in cucumber plants, and they are distributed on each chromosome with chromosome 4 harboring the largest cluster of five different genes. The corresponding CNL family member varies in the number of amino acids and exons, molecular weight, theoretical isoelectric point (pI) and subcellular localization. Cis-acting element analysis of the CNL genes reveals the presence of multiple phytohormone, abiotic and biotic responsive elements in their promoters, suggesting that these genes might be responsive to plant hormones and stress. Phylogenetic and synteny analysis indicated that the CNL proteins are conserved evolutionarily in different plant species, and they can be divided into four subfamilies based on their conserved domains. MEME analysis and multiple sequence alignment showed that conserved motifs exist in the sequence of CNLs. Further DNA sequence analysis suggests that CsCNL genes might be subject to the regulation of different miRNAs upon PM infection. By mining available RNA-seq data followed by real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis, we characterized expression patterns of the CNL genes, and found that those genes exhibit a temporospatial expression pattern, and their expression is also responsive to PM infection, ethylene, salicylic acid, and methyl jasmonate treatment in cucumber plants. Finally, the CNL genes targeted by miRNAs were predicted in cucumber plants. Our results in this study provided some basic information for further study of the functions of the CNL gene family in cucumber plants.
