Nitrogen fertilizer reduces salicylic acid-mediated immunity by activating gibberellin signaling in rice

ABSTRACT: The environment plays important role in the interaction between plant hosts and pathogens. The application of chemical fertilizer is a crucial breeding technology to enhance crop yield since last century. As the most abundant fertilizer, nitrogen often increases disease susceptibility for crop plants. The underlying mechanism for nitrogen induced disease susceptibility is elusive. Here we found that nitrogen application activate gibberellin signaling by degradation of SLR1, the repressor protein in gibberellin signaling, which result in simultaneously promoting plant growth and disease susceptibility. SLR1, physically interacts with OsNPR1 and consequently facilitate OsNPR1 mediated defense responses. Transcriptome analysis showed that OsNPR1-SLR1 module plays a vital role in transcriptional reprogramming for both disease resistance and plant growth. Increase of SLR1 protein level in gibberellin deficient rice plants neutralizes disease susceptibility but sacrifice yield enhancement under high nitrogen supply. Mutation in SD1, encoding OsGA2ox2, produced more grains than WT，and maintains disease resistance under high nitrogen supply. Taken together, our work reveals the molecular mechanism underlying nitrogen-induced disease susceptibility, and demonstrates that the application of sd1 rice varieties prevent the tradeoff between disease susceptibility and yield increase under high nitrogen supply.

Project description:Transcriptomic analysis in response to Botrytis cinerea infections under conrasting nitrate regime Nitrogen (N) is one of the main limiting nutrients for plant growth and crop yield. It is well documented that changes in nitrate availability, the main N source found in agricultural soils, influences a myriad of developmental programs and processes including the plant defense response. Indeed, many agronomical reports indicate that the plant N nutritional status influences their ability to respond effectively when challenged by different pathogens. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in N-modulation of plant susceptibility to pathogens are poorly characterized. In this work, we show that Solanum lycopersicum defense response to the necrotrophic fungus Botrytis cinerea is affected by plant N availability, with higher susceptibility in nitrate-limiting conditions. Global gene expression responses of tomato against B. cinerea under contrasting nitrate conditions reveals that plant primary metabolism is affected by the fungal infection regardless of N regimes. This result suggests that differential susceptibility to pathogen attack under contrasting N conditions is not only explained by a metabolic alteration. We used a systems biology approach to identify the transcriptional regulatory network implicated in plant response to the fungus infection under contrasting nitrate conditions. Interestingly, hub genes in this network are known key transcription factors involved in ethylene and jasmonic acid signaling. This result positions these hormones as key integrators of nitrate and defense against B. cinerea in tomato plants. Our results provide insights into potential crosstalk mechanisms between necrotrophic defense response and N status in plants. To better understand the molecular changes underlying the impact of nitrate availability on plant susceptibility to B. cinerea, we performed plant transcriptome profiling assays on mock-treated (3 biological replicates) and infected plants ( 3 biological replicates) grown under three N conditions, using GeneChip Tomato Genome Arrays (Affymetrix).
