Lignification Induced by Pseudomonads Harboring Avirulent Genes on Arabidopsis

Sukchan Lee, Yogesh Sharma, Taek Kyun Lee, Man Chang, KeithR. Davis

Abstract

The responses of Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes to the bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. maculicola 4326 (Psm4326) harboring cloned avirulence genes avrB and avrRpt2 from P. syringae pv. glycinea were examined. Psm4326 containing avirulent genes, avrB and avrRpt2 induced lignification and peroxidase activities in the bacteria infiltrated leaves of Col-O only and not in Mt-O, Bla-2 and Po-1. However, Arabidopsis ecotypes infiltrated with Psm4326 harboring with and without avirulent genes all showed differential induction of mRNA for peroxidase gene and lignin accumulation up to 24 h after infiltration. Only avrB gene in Col-O showed strong corelationship between peroxidase mRNA expression as well as lignification gradually up to 36 h after infiltration. These results extend previous observations that avirulence genes from pathogens of one host plant can be recognized by non-host plants and provide the genetic framework for analysis of the plant-specific response to the bacterial avirulent gene products in A. thaliana.

COVER PICTURE
The bulk tissue is a heterogeneous mixture of various cell types, which is depicted as a skein of intertwined threads with diverse colors each of which represents a unique cell type. Single-cell omics analysis untangles efficiently the skein according to the color by providing information of molecules at individual cells and interpretation of such information based on different cell types. The molecules that can be profiled at the individual cell by single-cell omics analysis includes DNA (bottom middle), RNA (bottom right), and protein (bottom left). This special issue reviews single-cell technologies and computational methods that have been developed for the single-cell omics analysis and how they have been applied to improve our understanding of the underlying mechanisms of biological and pathological phenomena at the single-cell level.
