Spider mite egg extract modifies Arabidopsis response to future infestations

ABSTRACT: Transcriptional plant responses are specially under the scope on herbivore oviposition studies. However, most of the information comes from Lepidopteran models, where egg laying and feeding are separate events, and little is known regarding the plant reaction to those pests where females feed and oviposit simultaneously. The present study unveiled the oviposition-induced transcriptomic response of plants to Tetranychus urticae eggs. Transcriptional evidence indicated that the early events on the plant response to the egg extract involved ATP, Ca2+ and ROS disbalances. The main phytohormones triggered were JA and ET, with which also participated secondary metabolites, volatiles and glucosinolates as defence mechanisms. Many of the regulated genes are also involved during pathogen-defence mechanisms. Negative regulation of defence mechanisms happened at 72 h. Female fertility was significantly reduced when fed on plants pre-exposed to the eggs, while feeding increased on those plants pre-exposed for 72 h.

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.

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.

Gene expression in Arabidopsis leaves after P. brassicae egg deposition, chilling, and/or herbivory by P. brassicae larvae

Project description:Plant defence against insects is well known to be affected by previous exposure to cues warning of herbivory. Using Arabidopsis thaliana and the herbivore Pieris brassicae, we addressed the question whether the maintenance of the effects of the warning cue depends on its reliability. We determined the transcriptomes of Arabidopsis leaves that were treated by P. brassicae egg deposition (i) five days after oviposition, (ii) one day after removal of the eggs following the egg treatment, (iii) three days after removal of the eggs, (iv) after two days of herbivory that started one day after removal of the eggs; or that were treated by chilling (v) five days after transfer to 4Â°C, (vi) one day after transfering the plants to 20Â°C following the chilling treatment, (vii) three days after transfering the plants to 20Â°C, (viii) after two days of herbivory that started one day after transfering the plants to 20Â°C. Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 wild type plants were grown under short day conditions (10 h/14 h light/dark) at 20Â°C for 7 weeks. Subsequently (i) the plants were transferred to 4Â°C for 5 days, or (ii) Pieris brassicae deposited ca. 40 eggs on leaf 17 where they remained for five days, or (iii) as controls plants grew untreated for five days. Next, the plants were transferred back to 20Â°C and the eggs were removed, respectively. Next, all plants rested for 1 day at 20Â°C. Next, P. brassicae larvae were allowed to feed for 2 days on leaf 17 adjacent to the former egg deposit site or at a respective leaf region of chilling-treated or untreated plants. Control plants were not exposed to larvae. From all treated and untreated plants material from a leaf region proximal to the egg deposition and/or feeding site was harvested for transcriptome analysis.

Conserved Arabidopsis response to oviposition and crude egg extract treatment

Project description:Although a seemingly harmless developmental stage of herbivores, insect eggs trigger efficient plant defenses that include necrosis, callus formation, accumulation of ovicidal compounds and release of volatiles to attract egg predators. The large white butterfly Pieris brassicae deposits batches of 20-30 eggs onto Arabidopsis leaves, causing a large transcriptional reprograming that is drastically distinct from the expression profile triggered by larval feeding. Also, P. brassicae eggs induce localized cell death, accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and salicylic acid (SA), and expression of PTI-related genes, suggesting that egg-associated molecular patterns (EAMPs) activate a response that is similar to the response induced by microbial pathogens. We previously reported that a crude P. brassicae egg extract (EE, soluble fraction from crushed eggs) induced similar responses as oviposition, including ROS and SA accumulation, cell death and defense gene induction. In order to compare oviposition and EE treatment at the transcriptome level, we analyzed changes in transcipt abundance with P. brassicae EE or after natural oviposition. After 5 days, hundreds of genes were significantly upregulated by each treatment and their induction was highly similar between treatments. This conserved transcriptomic signature thus strongly supports our previous observations that oviposition and EE treatment trigger comparable responses in Arabidopsis.

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.

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.

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.
