Project description:Plants are known to be responsive to volatiles, but knowledge about the molecular players involved in transducing their perception remain scarce. Here the response of Arabidopsis thaliana to E-2-hexenal, one of the green leaf volatiles that are produced upon wounding, herbivory or infection with pathogens is studied. We have taken a transcriptomics approach to identify genes that are induced by E-2-hexenal but not by defense hormones. In three independent biological experiments, Arabidopsis plants, ecotype Columbia (Col-0), were exposed either to 3 µM aerial E-2-hexenal or to the carrier MeOH for the mock treatment and rosette leaves were harvested after 1h, 3h and 24h.

Project description:Priming of plant defenses provides increased plant protection against herbivores and reduces the allocation costs of defense. Defense priming in woody plants remains obscure, in particular due to plant development traits such as the endogenous rhythmic growth displayed by oaks (Quercus robur). By using bioassays with oak microcuttings, and by combining transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses, we investigated how leaf herbivory by Lymantria dispar and root inoculation with the ectomycorrhizal fungus Piloderma croceum prime oak defenses. We further investigated how defense priming is modulated by rhythmic growth of the oaks. A first herbivory challenge in oak leaves primed newly grown leaves for an enhanced induction of jamonic acid (JA)-related direct defenses, or enhanced emission of volatiles, depending on the specific growth stage at which the plants where challenged. Root inoculation with Piloderma abolished the enhanced induction of JA-related defenses and volatile emission. Our results indicate that a first herbivore attack primes direct and indirect defenses of newly formed oak leaves, and that the specific display of defense priming is modulated by rhythmic growth. Our results further show that the priming memory in oaks can be transmitted to the next growth cycle even to the leaves of the new shoot unit.

Project description:• Herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs), in addition to attracting natural enemies of herbivores, can serve a signaling function within plants by acting as wound signals that induce or prime defenses. However, particularly in woody plants, which compounds within HIPV blends are capable of acting as signaling molecules are largely unknown. • Leaves of hybrid poplar (Populus deltoides x nigra) saplings were exposed in vivo to naturally wound-emitted concentrations of the green leaf volatile (GLV) cis-3-hexenyl acetate (z3HAC) and then subsequently fed upon by gypsy moth larvae (Lymantria dispar L.). Volatiles were collected throughout the experiments, and leaf tissue was collected to measure phytohormone levels and expression of defense-related genes. • Relative to controls, z3HAC-exposed leaves had higher levels of jasmonic acid and linolenic acid following gypsy moth feeding. Further, z3HAC primed transcripts of phytohormone signaling (lipoxygenase 1) and direct defense (a Kunitz proteinase inhibitor) genes. These qRT-PCR results were supported by microarray analysis using the AspenDB 7K EST microarray containing ~5400 unique gene models. Moreover, z3HAC also primed the release of herbivore-induced terpene volatiles. • The widespread priming response suggests an adaptive benefit to detecting z3HAC as a wound signal. Thus, woody plants can detect and use z3HAC as a signaling cue to prime defenses before actually experiencing damage. GLVs may therefore have important ecological functions in arboreal ecosystems.

Plants and Gypsy Moths Hybrid poplar (Populus deltoides x nigra, clone âOGYâ: Magnoliopsida; Malpighiales; Salicaceae; Aigeiros section of Populus) saplings were grown from cuttings in a walk-in growth chamber maintained at 25oC with a 16:8 photoperiod. Cuttings were planted in five-gallon pots in commercial potting soil (MetroMix 250, SunGro, Bellevue, WA, USA) and watered as necessary. Due to supplements in the soil, fertilization was not required and poplars grew to heights of ~1.5 m in 12-15 weeks. Newly molted 4th instar L. dispar larvae were used for all experiments. Egg masses were obtained from APHIS (Otis Plant Protection Lab, Cape Cod, MA, USA) and reared through 3rd instar on artificial diet. Newly molted 4th instar larvae cleared their gut contents prior to molting. Experimental Manipulations All experiments were conducted from March-April 2007 in a single walk-in growth chamber maintained as described above. Poplars were equilibrated to the chamber for 24 hours prior to manipulations. Two fully-expanded source leaves (leaf plastochron index LPI 8 and 9) were isolated per sapling using individual 15x15x1 cm Teflon/glass chambers (for photo see Appendix in Frost et al., 2007). These two leaves are non-orthostichous, which means that they do not readily share assimilates or wound signals (Davis et al., 1991). Thus, for the purposes of these experiments, treatment leaves did not interact with their respective control leaves. However, the leaves are of slightly different ages and, to control for this potential effect, we randomized which leaf would receive the z3HAC treatment. Flow into each chamber was set at 2.0 L/min, which was sufficient to avoid condensation within the chamber. The experiments were designed to have two consecutive albeit separate treatments: exposure to z3HAC and subsequent application of L. dispar larvae. We used commercially available z3HAC (Sigma-Aldrich), and prepared concentrations to infuse into each septum such that it delivered ~40 ng z3HAC per application. After a pretreatment volatile collection (Day 1 and night starting Day 2), z3HAC-infused rubber septa were placed into the leaf chambers with each treatment leaf (morning of Day 2). Control leaves each received a septum infused with just the dichloromethane solvent. Septa were replaced twice, once before the afternoon collection on Day 2, and before the morning collection on Day 3. All septa were removed during the night of Day 3, since most volatile production stops at night in this hybrid (Fig 5a). On the morning of Day 4, two newly molted 3rd or 4th instar gypsy moth larvae were added to each leaf, regardless of whether the leaf received the treatment or control septa on Days 2 and 3. The herbivores remained on the leaves for ~24 hours. On the day of collection, each leaf was excised at the petiole, photographed, and then placed in a labeled coin envelope and submerged directly into liquid N2. Each photograph also contained a standard of known area, from which leaf area and % damage calculations were determined (Sigma Scan 500, Systat Software Inc.). Larvae consumed similar amounts on the treatment and control leaves (24 hours: z3HAC-treated leaves: 4.7 ± 1.8 cm2; controls: 4.3 ± 1.7 cm2). The snap-frozen leaves were stored at -80oC until grinding. Each leaf was ground in an individual mortar and pestle under liquid N2. Ground tissue was weighed into vials for RNA extraction and JA analysis (see below). Care was taken to not allow the ground tissue to thaw at any point prior to extraction. This method therefore allowed us to measure gene expression and JA from the same tissue. Microarray Analysis To explore a transcriptome-level response of poplar leaves to z3HAC and herbivory, we conducted microarray analysis of the samples collected after 24 hours of herbivore damage. This allowed a comparison of transcriptome-level responses to herbivory in z3HAC-treated versus untreated leaves (i.e., the set of genes that were primed by z3HAC exposure). Total RNA was labeled using Ambion's Amino Allyl Message Amp II aRNA Amplification Kit (#AM1753) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, 1 ug of each sample was reversed transcribed using T7-oligo(dT) priming and subsequently second strand cDNA synthesis was performed. The resulting double stranded cDNA was purified and then used as a template for in vitro transcription during which amino allyl-modified UTP was incorporated. The resulting amino allyl-modified cRNA was purified and coupled with Cy3 or Cy5 (GE Amersham, #RPN5661) as appropriate. We used dye swapping to account for potential dye effects. Dye coupled cRNA was purified and 4 ug was fragmented and subsequently dissolved in 60ul of hybridization solution. We used an aspen 7K EST array containing replicate subarrays of 6,705 elements in a 4Ã4 grid with a spot diameter of ~150 µm and a spacing of 200 µm (Ranjan et al., 2004). The elements represented ~5,400 unique JGI Populus gene models, and included positive and negative controls (Lucidea Universal ScoreCard, Amersham) to monitor target labeling and hybridization efficiency, as well as many genes of known function. Clone information can be downloaded from the aspenDB website (www.aspenDB.mtu.edu). Arrays were hybridized following previously published methods (Xiang et al., 2002; Hughes et al., 2001).

Project description:The expression of stress-related genes induced by feeding of chestnut moth larvae (Conistra vaccinii L.) was studied with Vitreoscilla hemoglobin-expressing (VHb) and non-transgenic hybrid aspen lines (Populus tremula x P. tremuloides). Besides the herbivore-injured leaves (L1), cDNA microarray analyses were conducted using uninjured leaves of hybrid aspen lines positioned above (A) and below (B) the herbivory exposed leaves. Two-condition experiment, control vs. herbivory exposure. Two hybrid aspen lines: non-transgenic V617 and VHb expressing V617 /45. Of each plant, three leaf types were analysed: the injured/uninjured leaf (L1) and nonorthostichous leaf positioned above (A) and below (B). Biological replicates: 3. On each array, two samples representing L1, A or B leaf type of control and herbivory treatment of either V617 or V617/45 line. line V617: wt_A_rep1-3, wt_B_rep1-3, wt_L1_rep1-3 line V617/45: VHb_A_rep1-3, VHb_B_rep1-3, VHb_L1_rep1-3 leaf type A: wt_A_rep1-3, VHb_A_rep1-3 leaf type B: wt_B_rep1-3, VHb_B_rep1-4 leaf type L1: wt_L1_rep1-3, VHb_L1_rep1-5

Project description:The green leaf volatiles (GLVs) Z-3-hexen-1-ol (Z3-HOL) and Z-3-hexenyl acetate (Z3-HAC) are airborne infochemicals released from damaged plant tissues that induce defenses and developmental responses in receiver plants, but little is known about their mechanism of action. We found that Z3-HOL and Z3-HAC induce similar but distinctive physiological and signaling responses in tomato seedlings and cell cultures. In seedlings, Z3-HAC showed a stronger root growth inhibition effect than Z3-HOL. In cell cultures, the two GLVs induced distinct changes in MAP kinase activity and proton fluxes as well as rapid and massive changes in the phosphorylation status of proteins within five minutes. Many of these phosphoproteins are involved in reprogramming the proteome from cellular homeostasis to stress and include pattern recognition receptors, a receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase, MAPK cascade components, calcium signaling proteins, and transcriptional regulators. These are well-known components of damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) signaling pathways. These rapid changes in the phosphoproteome may underly the activation of defense and developmental responses to GLVs. Our data provide further evidence that GLVs function like DAMPs and indicate that GLVs coopt DAMP signaling pathways.

Project description:In plants, an increase in resource allocation to growth (primary metabolism) associated with the presence of neighbors is likely to reduce defense-related production (secondary metabolism), making plants more vulnerable to herbivory. Even though there is increasing evidence supporting this “trade-off hypothesis”, the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. Far red (FR) radiation reflected from plant tissues serves as an early warning signal of future competition, triggering a suite of plastic morphological adjustments that improve plant’s ability to compete for light in crowded populations. Recent evidence from our lab showed that, when competition signals are present, plant defenses are severely reduced. Besides direct effects of herbivory and competition signals on target plants, second order effects occurs on neighboring plants through plant volatiles (PVs) communication. PVs play a key role in plant-plant and plant-insect interactions, changing its content and composition in response to environmental conditions. To increase our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying those interacting signaling webs, we performed a field study with tomato plants (cv Moneymaker), in which plants of EMITTER plots (six plants plot-1) were subjected to herbivory (nine larvae of Spodoptera eridania plant-1) and competition signals (increased FR radiation) in a factorial design. Light treatment started 28 days after sowing (DAS), and herbivory treatment and volatiles conduction started 34 DAS. Volatiles were conducted from EMITTER to RECEIVER plots (five plants plot-1) using a 5 inch, 1.4 m long tube fitted with a computer-type fan. 40 and 45 DAS, larval performance was measured on EMITTER plots as well as naturally-occurring insect colonization on RECEIVER plots. Finally (46 DAS), samples for bulk phenolic content were taken on every plot, and plant material from 4th and 5th leaves was collected for microarray analysis. There were three real biological replicates. Keywords: Reference design

Project description:Potato plants (cv. Russet Burbank) were grown as in vitro plantlets, and transplanted into 12-cm pots in Sunshine Mix #2 (peat/perlite mix) supplemented with slow release fertilizer (Osmocoat) in the greenhouse. The experiment was conducted in the summer of 2004 at Moscow, ID. Plantings were staggered to facilitate collection of volatiles and leaf samples during a short harvest window for all times of all treatments. Infectious Green Peach Aphids were raised on PLRV-infected potato plants; test plants were infected by placing 10 infectious aphids on a leaf in a clip cage for 48 h. The control plants for PLRV were similarly treated with aphids that had been raised on uninfected potato plants. A local isolate of PVYO was inoculated mechanically using purified virus (5 ìg ml-1) in buffer (50 mM Na2HPO4, 20 mM Na2SO3 pH 7.0) lightly rubbed onto a leaf previously dusted with carborundum. Control plants for PVY were treated in the same manner using buffer without PVY. The RNA samples were made from systemically affected leaves, excluding the actual leaves inoculated by aphids or that received the mechanical infection. Leaf volatiles were concurrently collected from equivalent plants; aliquots of frozen leaf samples were sent for metabolite analysis prior to RNA extraction. Leaf harvests were made 1, 3, 7, 14, and 28 d post-inoculation. Keywords: Direct comparison
