Histone acetyltransferase TaHAG1 interacts with TaPLATZ5 to activate TaPAD4 expression and positively contributes to powdery mildew resistance in wheat.

ABSTRACT: Plants have evolved a two-branched innate immune system to detect and cope with pathogen attack, which are initiated by cell-surface and intracellular immune receptors leading to pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) and effector-triggered immunity (ETI), respectively. A core transducer including PAD4-EDS1 node is proposed as the convergence point for a two-tiered immune system in conferring pathogen immunity. However, the transcriptional regulatory mechanisms controlling expression of these key transducers remain largely unknown. Here, we identified histone acetyltransferase TaHAG1 as a positive regulator of powdery mildew resistance in wheat. TaHAG1 regulates expression of key transducer gene TaPAD4 and promotes SA and reactive oxygen species accumulation to accomplish resistance to Bgt infection. Moreover, overexpression and CRISPR-mediated knockout of TaPAD4 validate its role in wheat powdery mildew resistance. Furthermore, TaHAG1 physically interacts with TaPLATZ5, a plant-specific zinc-binding protein. TaPLATZ5 directly binds to promoter of TaPAD4 and together with TaHAG1 to potentiate the expression of TaPAD4 by increasing the levels of H3 acetylation. Our study revealed a key transcription regulatory node in which TaHAG1 acts as an epigenetic modulator and interacts with TaPLATZ5 that confers powdery mildew resistance in wheat through activating a convergence point gene between PTI and ETI, which could be effective for genetic improvement of disease resistance in wheat and other crops.

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.
