Maize gene expression during infection with Ustilago maydis strains SG200Dpit1 and SG200Dpit2

ABSTRACT: Ustilago maydis is a basidiomycete fungus that causes smut disease in maize. Most prominent symptoms of the disease are plant tumors, which can be induced by U. maydis on all aerial parts of the plant. We identified two linked genes, pit1 and pit2, which are specifically expressed during plant colonization. Deletion mutants for either pit1 or pit2 are unable to induce tumor development and elicit plant defense responses. We used the Affymetrix maize genome array to analyze the transcriptional responses of maize to deletion pit1 and pit2 mutants and found plant responses to both mutants being not significantly distinguishable.

We used the Affymetrix maize genome array to analyze the transcriptional responses of maize to deletion pit1 and pit2 mutants and found plant responses to both mutants being not significantly distinguishable. U. maydis infected parts of maize seedling leaves were dissected 4 days after inoculation with strain SG200Dpit1 and SG200Dpit2, respectively. We previously submitted data of maize leaves that were treated with the progenitor wild type strain SG200 as well as mock-infections under identical experimetal conditions (GEO: GSE10023, 4d mock and 4d SG200 Samples, equivalent record in Arrayexpress: E-GEOD-10023). These data served as controls for this experiment.

Transcription profiling of maize n during infection with Ustilago maydis strain SG200Dpep1

Project description:The basidiomycete Ustilago maydis causes smut disease in maize. Colonization of the host plant is initiated by direct penetration of cuticle and cell wall of maize epidermis cells. The invading hyphae are surrounded by the plant plasma membrane and proliferate within the plant tissue. We identified a novel secreted protein, termed Pep1. Disruption mutants of pep1 are not affected in saprophytic growth and develop normal infection structures. However, Îpep1 mutants fail to penetrate the epidermal cell wall and elicit a strong plant defense response. Using Affymetrix maize arrays we identified about 110 plant genes which are differentially regulated in Îpep1 and wild type infections during the penetration stage. Experiment Overall Design: In three independent experiments plants were infected with the strain SG200Dpep1 which is derived from the solopathogenic U. maydis strain SG200. Samples from infected leaves were taken at 24 hours post infection. Samples were treated under the same conditions as described previosly (Doehlemann et al. (2008) Plant J, in press).

Transcriptome of two maize lines seedlings show resistance and susceptible to corn smut during infection of Ustilago maydis

Project description:The biotrophic fungal pathogen Ustilago maydis cause common smut in maize, and lead to gall formation on all aerial organs, especially on maize kernel thus reduce yield. The interaction of U. maydis with maize is a well-established model to study the interaction between maize and biotrophic pathogen. U. maydis infection could activate host immune responses including: ROS accumulation, protease activation, salicylic acid signaling. U. maydis employ several strategies to overcome maize immune response, thus initial the biotrophic interaction with host. It has been suggested that genetic factors of maize host affected the disease severity of U. maydis infection, here we investigated the transcriptome profile of resistance and susceptible maize lines upon U. maydis infection, thus propose candidate maize genes involved in the defense response in maize to corn smut cause by U. maydis.

Comparison of extracellular vesicle and filamentous cell transcriptomes of Ustilago maydis

Project description:The coding transcriptomes of filamentous cultures of the maize smut fungus Ustilago maydis and their extracellular vesicles (EVs) were compared. Protein-coding transcripts relatively enriched in EVs versus filament cells were identified and examined to identify potentially functional mRNA cargos of U. maydis EVs.

Maize gene expression after infection of Ustilago maydis SG200 and SG200Δtin2

Project description:Anthocyanin induction in plant is considered a general defense response against biotic and abiotic stresses. The infection by Ustilago maydis, the corn smut pathogen, is accompanied with anthocyanin induction in leaf tissue. We revealed that anthocyanin is intentionally induced by the virulence promoting secreted effector protein Tin2. Tin2 protein functions inside plant cells where it interacts with cytoplasmic maize protein kinase ZmTTK1. Tin2 masks an ubiquitin-proteasome degradation motif in ZmTTK1 leading to a more stable active kinase. Active ZmTTK1 controls transcriptional activation of genes in the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway rerouting phenylalanine away from lignin biosynthesis. Therefore, we performed microarray analysis to understand how maize gene transcription in phenylpropanoid pathway is differentially changed after infection with Ustilago maydis SG200 (wild type) and SG200Dtin2 (anthocyanin-inducing effector mutant).

Transcriptome analysis of a Ustilago maydis ust1 deletion mutant

Project description:Ustilago maydis, the causal agent of corn smut disease, is a dimorphic fungus alternating between a saprobic haploid budding form, and an obligate pathogenic filamentous dikaryon. Maize responds to U. maydis colonization by producing highly modified tumorous structures and it is only within these plant galls that the fungus sporulates giving rise to melanized sexual spores, the teliospores. Previously we identified a regulatory protein from the APSES family of transcription factors, which we named Ust1, whose absence in yeast cells led to filamentous growth and the production of highly pigmented spore-like structures in culture. In this study, we analyzed the transcriptome of a ∆ust1 deletion mutant.

Time series transcriptional profiling of Ustilago maydis infecting Zea mays

Project description:The basidiomycete fungus Ustilago maydis causes smut disease in maize and has become an important model for elucidating the strategies used for host colonization by biotrophic fungi. In this study, we performed an in-depth transcriptional profiling of the plant-associated development of a cross between U. maydis FB1 and FB2 wildtype strains. The analysis of eight different stages, including the development on the leaf surface, early colonization, tumor induction and spore maturation, offers an unprecedented view of the changes in the fungal transcriptome associated with the passage through the entirely biotrophic life cycle. In our analysis, we focus on fungal metabolism, nutritional strategies, secreted effectors and regulatory networks. Secreted proteins were enriched in three distinct expression modules corresponding to the plant surface, establishment of biotrophy and tumor formation, respectively. These modules are likely the key determinants for U. maydis virulence. With respect to nutrient utilization, we observed that expression of several nutrient transporters was tied to these virulence modules rather than being controlled by nutrient availability. We show that oligopeptide transporters likely involved in nitrogen supply during infection are important virulence determinants. By measuring the intramodular connectivity of transcription factors, we identified potential drivers for the virulence modules. While known components of the b-cascade served as inducers for the plant surface and biotrophy module, we identified a set of yet uncharacterized transcription factors as likely responsible for expression of the tumor module. We demonstrate a crucial role in effector gene expression and tumor formation for one of these transcription factors.

Role of Ustilago Ncr1 in nitrogen utilization

Project description:The basidiomycete Ustilago maydis is the causal agent of corn smut disease and induces tumor formation during biotrophic growth in its host plant maize. The Usilago maydis genome harbors a homolog to the GATA transcription factors Nit2 and AreA that act as global regulators of nitrogen catabolite repression in filamentous model fungi Neurospora crassa and Aspergillus nidulans. We aimed at resolving the role of the Ustilago maydis homolog Ncr1 for the utilization of complex nitrogen sources and pathogenicity. Sporidia of the indicated Ustilago maydis strains were grown overnight in ammonium minimal medium (Holliday, 1976) and samples for total RNA extraction were taken 2h after transfer to minimal medium lacking any nitrogen source (-N) during the exponential growth phase to assess those genes that are regulated in response to nitrogen starvation. The solopathogenic strain SG200 (control) and deletion mutants of (Nitrogen catabolite repression1) Ncr1 and (Target of Ncr1) Ton1, both being in the SG200 background, were studied in two independent experiments (one experiment for Ton1). Per strain and experiment, three biological replicate samples were analyzed (except for only biological replicates for Ncr1 in the second experiment).
