Abscisic Acid Promotes Jasmonic Acid Accumulation and Plays a Key Role in Citrus Canker Development.

ABSTRACT: Antagonism between jasmonic acid (JA) and salicylic acid (SA) plays pivotal roles in the fine-tuning of plant immunity against pathogen infection. In this study, we compared the phytohormonal responses to Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc) between the citrus canker-susceptible (S) cultivar Wanjincheng orange (Citrus sinensis Osbeck) and -resistant (R) cultivar Jindan (Fortunella crassifolia Swingle). Upon Xcc infection, SA and JA were strongly induced in Jindan (R) and Wanjincheng orange (S), respectively, and JA appeared to contribute to citrus disease susceptibility by antagonizing SA-mediated effective defenses. A homologous gene encoding the allene oxide synthase (AOS) 1-2 enzyme, which catalyzes the first committed step in JA biosynthesis, was specifically upregulated in Wanjincheng orange (S) but not in Jindan (R). A promoter sequence analysis showed that abscisic acid (ABA)-responsive elements are enriched in the AOS1-2 of Wanjincheng orange (S) but not in Jindan (R). Accordingly, ABA treatments could induce AOS1-2 expression and JA accumulation, leading to enhanced citrus disease susceptibility in Wanjincheng orange (S), while the synthesis inhibitor sodium tungstate had the opposite effects. Moreover, ABA was specifically induced by Xcc infection in Wanjincheng orange (S) but not in Jindan (R). Thus, Xcc appeared to hijack host ABA biosynthesis to promote JA accumulation, which in turn suppressed effectual SA-mediated defenses to favor disease development in citrus. Our findings provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the differential citrus-canker resistance in citrus cultivars, and a new strategy for the biotechnological improvement of citrus canker resistance was discussed.

Project description:Background:Lignocellulose is one of the most promising alternative feedstocks for glutamic acid production as commodity building block chemical, but the efforts by the dominant industrial fermentation strain Corynebacterium glutamicum failed for accumulating glutamic acid using lignocellulose feedstock. Results:We identified the existence of surprisingly high biotin concentration in corn stover hydrolysate as the determining factor for the failure of glutamic acid accumulation by Corynebacterium glutamicum. Under excessive biotin content, induction by penicillin resulted in 41.7 ± 0.1 g/L of glutamic acid with the yield of 0.50 g glutamic acid/g glucose. Our further investigation revealed that corn stover contained 353 ± 16 ?g of biotin per kg dry solids, approximately one order of magnitude greater than the biotin in corn grain. Most of the biotin remained stable during the biorefining chain and the rich biotin content in corn stover hydrolysate almost completely blocked the glutamic acid accumulation. This rich biotin existence was found to be a common phenomenon in the wide range of lignocellulose biomass and this may be the key reason why the previous studies failed in cellulosic glutamic acid fermentation from lignocellulose biomass. The extended recording of the complete members of all eight vitamin B compounds in lignocellulose biomass further reveals that the major vitamin B members were also under the high concentration levels even after harsh pretreatment. Conclusions:The high content of biotin in wide range of lignocellulose biomass feedstocks and the corresponding hydrolysates was discovered and it was found to be the key factor in determining the cellulosic glutamic acid accumulation. The highly reserved biotin and the high content of their other vitamin B compounds in biorefining process might act as the potential nutrients to biorefining fermentations. This study creates a new insight that lignocellulose biorefining not only generates inhibitors, but also keeps nutrients for cellulosic fermentations.
