Project description:Pectobacterium atrosepticum (Pba) is a gram-negative bacterium which causes blackleg and tuber soft rot on potato. To investigate the molecular processes and responses involved in Pba-host (potato) and Pba-non-host (radish) interactions, under laboratory conditions, we used total RNA-sequencing to measure the gene expression patterns from all three species. Samples from infected and non-infected plant roots were collected after fourteen days of inoculation with Pba SCRI_1039 and subjected to total RNA-sequencing on an Illumina sequencing platform.

Project description:Posttranscriptional regulator RsmA is part of a regulatory system that controls production of plant cell wall degrading enzymes (PCWDEs), motility and other virulence factors among the Pectobacterium spp of plant pathogens. We constructed the knockout mutation of rsmA gene in Pectobacterium wasabiae strain SCC3193. The rsmA- strain has three times lower growth rate but increased virulence when compared to wild type. To explain this phenotype we compared wild type and rsmA- mRNA levels using genome wide microarray. We found that the synthesis of all known virulence factors and flagella is upregulated, while cell division and peptidoglycan synthesis is down regulated in rsmA- strain. The TCA cycle is directed fully to energy production, indicating low energetic status of the cell that is a probable reason for the low growth rate of the mutant. Growth experiments showed that the enzymatic activities of extracellular virulence factors polygalacturonase and pectate lyase are very high throughout the growth curve even without induction by plant component. Wild type cells are rod shaped in liquid media, but elongated and hyperflagellated in swarm plate containing potato tuber extract and in potato tuber. The rsmA- strain exhibits the same conditional phenotype, but differentiation into swarmer cells is faster and cell elongation more pronounced. Virulence experiments in potato tuber showed that although rsmA- strain causes bigger tissue maceration, its ability to compete with the natural bacterial community in the host is decreased. We conclude that the lack of RsmA switches the cells to infective phenotype characterized by expression of virulence factors and swarming. The lack of control over these energy costly processes is probably the reason for decreased growth rate and fitness.

Gene expression analysis from P. wasabie SCC3193 wildtype and SCC3193 rsmA mutant was performed on RNA samples extraxcted from the rsmA mutant (at 40 and 48 hours) and wildtype (at 24 hours). The strain were grown on 1.5% agar M9 minimal media plates supplemented with 10% potato extract. Three biological replicates were used from each strain at each time point.

Project description:Pectobacterium atrosepticum is an economically important phytopathogen that is responsible for potato blackleg and soft rot, and for which current control strategies are limited. In this study, stem samples of potato crops exhibiting blackleg were taken from three farms in Co. Cork, Ireland, and they were found to be infected with P. atrosepticum. Three closely related bacteriophages (phages) that are specific to this phytopathogen were isolated and characterized, namely vB_PatP_CB1, vB_PatP_CB3, and vB_PatP_CB4 (abbreviated as CB1, CB3, and CB4). Both CB1 and CB3 were determined to infect 12 strains and CB4 10 strains of the 19 strains of P. atrosepticum tested. Morphology, latent periods, burst sizes, and their stability at various temperatures and pHs were also examined. Genome sequencing of the three phages revealed that they shared a minimum nucleotide identity of 93% with each other. Their genomes exhibited an Enquartavirinae genome organization, possessing several conserved proteins that were associated with phages of this group, like the type species Escherichia virus N4. Tandem electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) allowed for the identification of ten structural proteins that form the virion of CB1, six that are conserved in phage N4. Biocontrol experiments demonstrated that the phages suppress soft rot formation upon co-inoculation with P. atrosepticum on whole tubers. The results of this study indicate that CB1 related phages could be good candidates for phage-based control.

Project description:Pectobacterium atrosepticum is a common phytopathogen causing significant economic losses worldwide. To develop a biocontrol strategy for this blackleg pathogen of solanaceous plants, P. atrosepticum bacteriophage Peat1 was isolated and its genome completely sequenced. Interestingly, morphological and sequence analyses of the 45,633-bp genome revealed that phage Peat1 is a member of the family Podoviridae and most closely resembles the Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteriophage KP34. This is the first published complete genome sequence of a phytopathogenic P. atrosepticum bacteriophage, and details provide important information for the development of biocontrol by advancing our understanding of phage-phytopathogen interactions.
