Oviposition by Spodoptera exigua on Solanum dulcamara alters the plant's response to herbivory and impairs larval performance [L0]

ABSTRACT: 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.

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

Project description: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.

Effects of Drought and Flooding on Herbivore-Triggered Transcriptomic Response in Solanum dulcamara

Project description:We use Solanum dulcamara subjected to drought or flooding and damaged by Spodoptera exigua to analyze such interactions at multiple levels. Drought and herbivory caused comparable effects on S. dulcamara physiological response, which was reflected by a considerable overlap in S. dulcamara transcriptomic profiles. This included many defense responses and genes involved in biosynthesis of secondary metabolites that were induced by drought and herbivory but repressed by flooding. Furthermore, combination of drought and herbivory additively induced a part of these herbivore-induced responses suggesting that drought-stressed plants were more resistant. Our study provides concrete evidence of how abiotic stresses differentially affect the plant complex hormonal interactions to fine-tune plant responses to insects.

Comparison of Solanum dulcamara transcriptome after real and simulated herbivory

Project description:Plants are attacked by diverse herbivores and respond with manifold defense responses. To study transcriptional and other early regulation events of these plant responses, herbivory is often mimicked to standardize the temporal and spatial dynamics that vary tremendously for natural herbivory. Yet to what extent such mimics of herbivory are able to elicit the same plant response as real herbivory remains largely undetermined. We examined the transcriptional response of a new model plant to herbivory by a lepidopteran larva and to a commonly used herbivory mimic by applying the larvae’s oral secretions to standardized wounds. We designed a microarray for Solanum dulcamara and showed that the transcriptional response to real and to simulated herbivory by Spodoptera exigua overlapped moderately by about 40%. Interestingly, certain responses were mimicked better than others; 60% of the genes up-regulated but not even a quarter of the genes down-regulated by herbivory were similarly affected by application of oral secretions to wounds. While the regulation of genes involved in signaling, defense and water stress were mirrored well by the herbivory mimic, most of the genes related to photosynthesis, carbohydrate- and lipid metabolism were exclusively regulated by real herbivory. Thus, wounding and elicitor application decently mimics herbivory-induced defense responses but likely not the re-allocation of primary metabolites induced by real herbivory.

Interactive responses of Solanum dulcamara to drought and insect feeding are herbivore species specific

Project description:In nature, plants are frequently subjected to multiple biotic and abiotic stresses, resulting in a convergence of adaptive responses. We hypothesized that hormonal signalling regulating defences to different herbivores may interact with drought response, causing distinct resistance phenotypes. To test this, we studied hormonal and transcriptomic responses of Solanum dulcamara subjected to drought and herbivory by the generalist Spodoptera exigua (BAW) or the specialist Leptinotarsa decemlineata (CPB). Bioassays showed that plants under drought became more resistant to BAW, but not to CPB. While drought did not alter BAW-induced hormonal responses, it enhanced CPB-induced accumulation of jasmonic acid and salicylic acid (SA) as well as supressed ethylene (ET) emission. Microarray analyses showed that under drought BAW herbivory enhanced several herbivore-induced responses, including cell-wall remodelling and metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids and secondary metabolites. In contrast, CPB herbivory enhanced several photosynthesis-related and pathogen responses in drought-stressed plants. This may divert resources away from the production of effective defences and increase tissue nutritive value. In conclusion, while BAW suffers from the drought-enhanced defences, CPB may benefit from effects of the enhanced SA and reduced ET signalling. This suggests that the fine-tuned interaction between the plant and its specialist herbivore is sustained under drought.

Slug feeding triggers dynamicmetabolomic and transcriptomic responses leading to induced resistance in Solanum dulcamara

Project description:Induced plant responses to insect herbivores are well studied, but we know very little about responses to gastropod feeding. We aim to identify the temporal dynamics of signalling- and defence-related plant responses after slug feeding in relation to induced resistance. We exposed Solanum dulcamara plants to feeding by the grey field slug (GFS; Deroceras reticulatum) for different periods and tested discs of local and systemic leaves in preference assays. Induced responses were analysed using metabolomics and transcriptomics. GFS feeding induced local and systemic responses. Slug feeding for 72h more strongly affected the plant metabolome than 24h feeding. It increased the levels of a glycoalkaloid (solasonine), phenolamides, anthocyanins, and trypsin protease inhibitors as well as polyphenol oxidase activity. Phytohormone and transcriptome analyses revealed that jasmonic acid, abscisic acid and salicylic acid signalling were activated. GFS feeding upregulated more genes than that it downregulated. The response directly after feeding was more than five times higher than after an additional 24h without feeding. Our research showed that GFS, like most chewing insects, triggers anti-herbivore defences by activating defence signalling pathways, resulting in increased resistance to further slug feeding. Slug herbivory may therefore impact other herbivores in the community.

RNA-Seq of Arabidopsis thaliana plants primed by insect eggs from Pieris brassicae and triggered by insect herbivory against untreated controls in two different developmental phases (vegetative vs. reproductive)

Project description:Plants can cope with stress better if they experience a mild form of the stress before the actual \\"real\\" stress event. 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. The main aim of the experiment was to compare the priming effect induced by insect egg deposition of Pieris brassicae between vegetative and reproductive (first open flowers) Arabidopsis thaliana plants 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 6 week old vegetative plants and 10 week old reproductive plants were the first flowers were open. For all treatments leaf tissue from the leaves that experienced egg oviposition and/or larval feeding were collected. From reproductive plants flower buds were collected as well.
