The activated SA and JA signaling pathways have an influence on flg22-triggered oxidative burst and callose deposition.

ABSTRACT: The first line of defense in plants against pathogens is induced by the recognition of microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMP). Perception of bacterial flagellin (flg22) by the pattern recognition receptor flagellin-sensing 2 (FLS2) is the best characterized MAMP response, although the underlying molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. Here we studied the relationship between salicylic acid (SA) or jasmonic acid (JA) signaling and FLS2-mediated signaling by monitoring flg22-triggered responses in known SA or JA related mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. The sid2 mutant, impaired in SA biosynthesis, had less basal FLS2 mRNA accumulation than the wild type, which correlated with suppression of early flg22 responses such as ROS production and induction of marker genes, WRKY29 and FRK1. The JA-signaling mutants, jar1 and coi1, exhibited an enhanced flg22-triggered oxidative burst and more callose accumulation than the wild type, and pretreatment with SA or coronatine (COR), a structural mimic of JA-isoleucine, altered these flg22-induced responses. Nonexpressor of pathogenesis-related genes 1 (NPR1) acted downstream of SID2 and required SA-dependent priming for the enhanced flg22-triggered oxidative burst and callose deposition. Activation of JA signaling by COR pretreatment suppressed the flg22-triggered oxidative burst and callose accumulation in a coronatine insensitive 1 (COI1) dependent manner. COR had a negative effect on flg22 responses but only the flg22-triggered oxidative burst depended on SA-JA/COR signaling antagonism. Thus the activated SA and JA signaling pathways have an influence on flg22-triggered oxidative burst and callose deposition. These results may explain how SA and JA signaling are cross talked for regulation of flg22-triggered responses.

Project description:UNLABELLED: BACKGROUND: Quantification of callose deposits is a useful measure for the activities of plant immunity and pathogen growth by fluorescence imaging. For robust scoring of differences, this normally requires many technical and biological replicates and manual or automated quantification of the callose deposits. However, previously available software tools for quantifying callose deposits from bioimages were limited, making batch processing of callose image data problematic. In particular, it is challenging to perform large-scale analysis on images with high background noise and fused callose deposition signals. RESULTS: We developed CalloseMeasurer, an easy-to-use application that quantifies callose deposition, a plant immune response triggered by potentially pathogenic microbes. Additionally, by tracking identified callose deposits between multiple images, the software can recognise patterns of how a given filamentous pathogen grows in plant leaves. The software has been evaluated with typical noisy experimental images and can be automatically executed without the need for user intervention. The automated analysis is achieved by using standard image analysis functions such as image enhancement, adaptive thresholding, and object segmentation, supplemented by several novel methods which filter background noise, split fused signals, perform edge-based detection, and construct networks and skeletons for extracting pathogen growth patterns. To efficiently batch process callose images, we implemented the algorithm in C/C++ within the Acapella™ framework. Using the tool we can robustly score significant differences between different plant genotypes when activating the immune response. We also provide examples for measuring the in planta hyphal growth of filamentous pathogens. CONCLUSIONS: CalloseMeasurer is a new software solution for batch-processing large image data sets to quantify callose deposition in plants. We demonstrate its high accuracy and usefulness for two applications: 1) the quantification of callose deposition in different genotypes as a measure for the activity of plant immunity; and 2) the quantification and detection of spreading networks of callose deposition triggered by filamentous pathogens as a measure for growing pathogen hyphae. The software is an easy-to-use protocol which is executed within the Acapella software system without requiring any additional libraries. The source code of the software is freely available at https://sourceforge.net/projects/bioimage/files/Callose.

Project description:Soil drought is detrimental to plant growth worldwide, particularly by triggering reactive oxygen species (ROS) burst. Serendipita indica (Si), a culturable root-associated endophytic fungus, can assist host plants in dealing with abiotic stresses; however, it is unknown whether and how Si impacts the drought tolerance of citrus plants. To unravel the effects and roles of Si on drought-stressed plants, trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata L. Raf.; a citrus rootstock) seedlings were inoculated with Si and exposed to soil drought, and growth, gas exchange, ROS levels, antioxidant defense systems, and expression of genes encoding antioxidant enzymes and fatty acid desaturases in leaves were measured. Soil drought suppressed plant biomass, whereas Si inoculation significantly increased plant biomass (10.29%-22.47%) and shoot/root ratio (21.78%-24.68%) under ample water and drought conditions, accompanied by improved net photosynthetic rate (105.71%), water use efficiency (115.29%), chlorophyll index (55.34%), and nitrogen balance index (63.84%) by Si inoculation under soil drought. Soil drought triggered an increase in leaf hydrogen peroxide and superoxide anion levels, while Si inoculation significantly reduced these ROS levels under soil drought, resulting in lower membrane lipid peroxidation with respect to malondialdehyde changes. Furthermore, Si-inoculated seedlings under soil drought had distinctly higher levels of ascorbate and glutathione, as well as catalase, peroxidase, and glutathione peroxidase activities, compared with no-Si-inoculated seedlings. Si inoculation increased the expression of leaf PtFAD2, PtFAD6, PtΔ9, PtΔ15, PtFe-SOD, PtCu/Zn-SOD, PtPOD, and PtCAT1 genes under both ample water and soil drought conditions. Overall, Si-inoculated trifoliate orange plants maintained a low oxidative burst in leaves under drought, which was associated with stimulation of antioxidant defense systems. Therefore, Si has great potential as a biostimulant in enhancing drought tolerance in plants, particularly citrus.
