Proteome analysis reveals alterations in protein profile upon ectomycorrhiza establishment in oak roots

ABSTRACT: Trees establish a symbiotic relationship with specialized soil fungi, called ectomycorrhizae, which is essential for nutrition, growth and health of temperate forest ecosystems. Understanding the mechanisms governing the establishment and functioning of ectomycorrhiza is important because of the role of forests in sequestering CO2 and also to develop ways to optimize tree productivity and sustainability. Here, we investigated the response of an oak species to ectomycorrhiza formation using a two dimensional differential in gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) and MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry proteomics approach. At the root level, changes in the abundance of 34 unique oak proteins were detected and revealed proteins involved in carbon and energy metabolism, protein processing and degradation, response to oxidative stress, lipid metabolism/transport, nitrogen and phosphorous assimilation and cell wall modification. Proteins supporting the importance of the secretory pathway functioning, in particular of the endoplasmic reticulum, during ectomycorrhiza functioning were identified. These proteins were identified as components of the endoplasmic reticulum folding/chaperoning machinery and proteins involved in the ER quality control system. This study constitutes an important contribution for the understanding of the mechanisms underlying the response of plants to ectomycorrhizal symbiosis establishment.

An increased knowledge on the real impacts of ectomycorrhizal symbiosis in forest species is needed to optimize forest sustainable productivity and thus to improve forest services and their capacity to act as carbon sinks. In this study, we investigated the response of an oak species to ectomycorrhizae formation using a proteomics approach complemented by biochemical analysis of carbohydrate levels. Comparative proteome analysis between mycorrhizal and nonmycorrhizal cork oak plants revealed no ...[more]

Project description:Phytophthora blight is a highly destructive soil borne disease caused by Phytophthora capsici Leonian, which seriously threatens global pepper production. Grafting is one of the important means to improve plant disease resistance and prevent soil borne diseases in vegetable production. However, the molecular mechanism by which grafting enhances the resistance of pepper to Phytophthora blight is still unclear. This study used Phytophthora capsici resistant strain ‘ZCM334’ and susceptible strain ‘Early Calwonder’ as rootstocks, and ‘Early Calwonder’ as scions for grafting. Phenotypic observation and cytological analysis showed that compared with the ‘Early Calwonder’ self rooted plants, the ‘ZCM334’ grafted plants had a later onset of disease, stronger resistance, and less damage to leaf cells, indicating that grafting can significantly improve the resistance of pepper to Phytophthora capsici. This study identified differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in the leaves and roots of ‘ZCM334’ grafted plants and ‘Early Calwonder’ self rooted plants through proteomic analysis based on iTRAQ technology, and 478 and 349 DEPs were identified between their leaves and roots, respectively. These DEPs were mainly involved in metabolic process, cellular process, response to stimulus and catalytic activity processes. We identified and screened 12 DEPs with consistent expression trends in the leaves and roots of ‘ZCM334’ grafted plants and ‘Early Calwonder’ self rooted plants, including seven DEPs related to Phytophthora capsici resistance (CA01g31060, CA02g15780, CA02g30850, CA01g11410, CA05g12260, CA03g35150, and CA03g36980) and five proteins with unknown functions (CA01g26190, CA11g10620, CA12g02730, CA01g20890 and CA02g11340). Through qRT-PCR analysis, a significant correlation was observed between the protein and transcript levels of these 12 DEPs, and their expression characteristics were analyzed in the roots and leaves of ‘ZCM334’ grafted plants and ‘Early Calwonder’ self rooted plants at different stages (0h, 12h, 24h, and 36h) after inoculation with Phytophthora capsici. This study provides valuable information for exploring the molecular mechanisms by which grafting enhances the resistance of pepper to Phytophthora blight and the excavation of these key genes provides research ideas for studying the regulatory network of pepper resistance to Phytophthora capsici.
