Differential expression profiling of Ustilaginoidea virens in resistant and susceptible rice varieties during early infection
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: To understand pathogenicity and in planta transcriptional reprogramming, expression profiles of U. virens during infection of the resistant and susceptible cultivars were analyzed using RNA-seq data. Predicted host-pathogen interaction database (PHI-base) genes that are probably involved in host-pathogen interactions were found to be significantly enriched in fungal differential expressed genes from both rice genotypes, indicating their potential roles in pathogenicity of U.virens. Our results also indicate that genes for secreted proteins and secondary metabolism are highly enriched in the transcriptome during early infection of susceptible cultivars. GO enrichment analysis suggest that bilogical processes required for successful infection of U. virens are greatly suppressed in the resistant cultivars.
