Nicotiana attenuata transcriptome after oviposition and herbivory by S. exigua and M. sexta

ABSTRACT: Oviposition by lepidopteran herbivores on Nicotiana attenuata primes plant defence responses that are induced by the feeding larvae. While oviposition by both the generalist Spodoptera exigua and the specialist Manduca sexta primes the production of defensive phenylpropanoids, their larvae are differentially affected. We investigate here the impact of prior oviposition on the transcriptome and phytohormone levels of plants that were later attacked by larvae to find regulatory signals of this priming. In a full-factorial design, we evaluated the effects of oviposition and herbivory by both species. Oviposition alone had only subtle effects at the transcriptional level. Laval feeding alone induced species-specific plant responses. Larvae of the generalist regulated phytohormones and gene expression stronger than larvae of the specialist. A day after larvae started to feed, we detected no significant alterations of the plant's response to larval feeding due to prior oviposition by conspecific moths. Yet, oviposition by each of the species profoundly influenced the plant's transcriptional and phytohormonal response to feeding larvae of the other species. Remarkably, the species-specific plant responses to larval feeding shifted towards the response normally elicited by larvae of the ovipositing species. Thus, plants may already recognise an insect's identity upon its oviposition.

Oviposition by Spodoptera exigua on Solanum dulcamara alters the plant's response to herbivory and impairs larval performance [L1]

Project description:Plant resistance traits against insect herbivores are extremely plastic. Plants respond not only to the herbivory itself, but also to oviposition by herbivorous insects. How prior oviposition affects plant responses to larval herbivory is largely unknown. Combining bioassays and defense protein activity assays with microarray analyses and metabolite profiling, we investigated the impact of preceding oviposition on the interaction of Solanum dulcamara with the generalist lepidopteran herbivore Spodoptera exigua at the levels of the plant's resistance, transcriptome and metabolome. We found that oviposition increased plant resistance to the subsequently feeding larvae. While constitutive and feeding-induced levels of defensive protease inhibitor activity remained unaffected, pre-exposure to eggs altered S. dulcamara's transcriptional and metabolic response to larval feeding in leaves local and systemic to oviposition. Particularly, genes involved in phenylpropanoid metabolism were stronger expressed in previously oviposited plants, which was reflected by reciprocal changes of primary metabolites upstream and within these pathways. Our data highlight that plants integrate signals from non-threatening life stages of their natural enemies to optimize their response when they become actually attacked. The observed transcriptional and metabolic reshaping of S. dulcamara's response to S. exigua herbivory suggests a role of phenylpropanoids in oviposition-primed plant resistance.

Gene expression in Arabidopsis thaliana leaves after chilling and/or herbivory by Pieris brassicae or Mamestra brassice larvae or after mechanical wounding

Project description:To investigate the impact of a plant´s response to abiotic stress on plant defense against subsequent biotic stress, we determined the transcriptional response of Arabidopsis thaliana to low temperature stress (4°C) and subsequent mechanical wounding or larval feeding damage by the herbivores Mamestra brassicae (generalist) and Pieris brassicae (specialist). In total, 21%, 4% and 14% of all genes responsive to M. brassicae, P. brassicae or mechanical wounding were differentially regulated in previously cold-treated compared to untreated plants.

Maize transcriptional responses to specialist and generalist spider mite herbivores

Project description:Spider mites, including the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae, TSSM) and the Banks grass mite (Oligonychus pratensis, BGM), are becoming increasingly important agricultural pests. The TSSM is an extreme generalist documented to feed on more than 1100 plant hosts. In contrast, the BGM is a grass specialist, with hosts including important cereal crops like maize, wheat, and sorghum. Historically, studies of plant-herbivore interactions have focused largely on insects. As such, far less is known about plant responses to spider mite herbivores, especially in grasses, and whether responses differ between generalist and specialist mites. To identify plant defense pathways responding to spider mites, we collected time course RNA-seq data from maize (Zea mays) infested with TSSMs and BGMs. Additionally, and as a comparison to the physical damage caused by spider mite feeding, a wounding treatment was also included. In total, four biological samples were generated per treatment.

RNA-Seq of Arabidopsis thaliana and Arabidopsis lyrata plants primed by insect eggs from Pieris brassicae and triggered by insect herbivory

Project description:In Arabidopsis thaliana it is known that plants that harboured eggs of the White cabbage butterfly (Pieris brassicae) before larval feeding can defend better against the herbivore stress. As Arabidopsis thaliana is an annual plant we were interested in the plant defense and possible priming reaction of the closest biannual/perennial relative Arabidopsis lyrata. The main aim of the experiment was to compare the effect induced by insect egg deposition of Pieris brassicae between A. thaliana and A. lyrata plants grown in parallel on the transcriptional level. We used a full factorial setup consisting of a) untreated control plants , b) plants which experienced eggs for 6 days without larval feeding after that period, c) plants which experienced no eggs before larval feeding for 24 hours d) plants which experienced eggs for 6 days and larval herbivory for 24 hours. This setup was conducted with 7 week old vegetative plants For all treatments leaf tissue from the leaves that experienced egg oviposition and/or larval feeding were collected.

Transcriptional analysis of physiological pathways in a generalist herbivore: responses to different host plants and plant structures by the cotton bollworm (CBW) Helicoverpa armigera [CottonStructures]

Project description:Transcriptional profiling comparing gut tissue from fifth instar larvae exposed to five different diets, namely cotton fruit or boll (B), cotton flower bud or square (SQ), cotton leaf (L), pinto bean-based artificial diet (PB) and wheat-based artificial Lepidoptera diet (BIO). The generalist lepidopteran herbivore Helicoverpa armigera can consume host plants in more than 40 plant families, and often utilizes several different tissues on the same plant. It is believed that generalists owe their success to the deployment of various members of multigene families of detoxicative and digestive enzymes, a strategy that may also be responsible for rapid evolution of insecticide resistance. However studies of generalist adaptations have been limited to specific genes or gene families, and an overview of how these adaptations are orchestrated at the transcriptional level is lacking. To investigate the previously-shown CBW preferences for different cotton plant structures, we measured net weight gain of larvae that fed on different cotton organs and compared the transcript profiles of larval guts in response to these organs and towards two different artificial diets commonly used for laboratory rearing of this species, using a two-color alternating loop design microarray experiment.

Solanum dulcamara's response to insect eggs comprises ovicidal hydrogen peroxide production

Project description:Plants can respond to insect oviposition but little is known about which responses directly target the insect eggs and how. Here, we reveal a mechanism by which the bittersweet nightshade, Solanum dulcamara, kills the eggs of a generalist noctuid herbivore. The plant responded at the site of oviposition by Spodoptera exigua with neoplasm and chlorotic tissue formation, accumulation of reactive oxygen species and induction of defence genes and proteins. Transcriptome analysis revealed that these responses were reflected in the transcriptional reprogramming of the egg-laden leaf. The plant-mediated egg mortality on S. dulcamara was not present on a genotype lacking chlorotic leaf tissue at the oviposition sites on which the eggs are exposed to less hydrogen peroxide. As exposure to hydrogen peroxide increased egg mortality, while catalase supplementation prevented the plants from killing the eggs, our results suggest that ROS formation directly acts as an ovicidal plant response of S. dulcamara.

Hormetic response and transcriptome profiling reveal the mechanism underlying metabolic and cuticular resistance to host-specific terpenoid defenses in an emerging insect pest, Pagiophloeus tsushimanus (coleoptera: curculionidae)

Project description:The resistance mechanisms evolved by insects to overcome host-plant allelochemicals is a key consideration in pest management. Camphor oil (EO) and its main component (i.e D-camphor) form a specific terpenoid-defensive system in camphor trees, Cinnamomum camphora. However, an emerging insect pest, Pagiophloeus tsushimanus has recently caused serious damage to this intractable plant species, which is largely elusive. Here, we used feeding bioassays and RNA-seq to investigate the mechanism underlying the resistance of the beetle to host-specific terpenoid defenses. Firstly, a hormetic response in both larval weight and developmental time was observed in terpenoid-feeding individuals, which is a highly generalized dose-response phenomenon in toxicology whereas occurs infrequently in the context of insect-plant interactions. Then, comparative transcriptome analysis between terpenoid-feeding and control groups indicated that both CYP450s-mediated metabolic resistance and CPs-mediated cuticular resistance were jointly employed to cope with terpenoid-induced stress. In addition, a small portion of genes involved in glucose transport pathway were up-regulated at the low D-camphor dose, suggesting an extra intake of glucose used for larval growth may contribute to a hormetic response. These findings probably implied that the dual terpenoid-resistance mechanisms existing in this specialist is an essential precondition for hormetic response in larval growth, ultimately contributing to successfully colonize host camphor trees with impunity. Overall, our study will open new avenues for understanding the insect-plant coevolutionary adaptation and developing durable pest control strategies.

Whole genome tomato transcriptional response to Tetranychus evansi herbivory.

Project description:The red spider mite, Tetranychus evansi, is a oligophagous specialist mite pest of Solanaceae plants. Here, we described tomato transcriptional responses to T. evansi feeding and compared them to responses to tomato-adapted and -non-adapted strains of generalist herbivorous spider mite Tetranychus urticae. We used microarray to assess global gene expression in Solanum lycopersicum cv. Heinz 1706 upon T. evansi attack.
