Genetic Channelization Mechanism of Four Chalcone Isomerase Homologous Genes for Synergistic Resistance to Fusarium wilt in Gossypium barbadense L.

ABSTRACT: Duplication events occur very frequently during plant evolution. The genes in the duplicated pathway or network can evolve new functions through neofunctionalization and subfunctionalization. Flavonoids are secondary metabolites involved in plant development and defense. Our previous transcriptomic analysis of F6 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) and the parent lines after Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum (Fov) infection showed that CHI genes have important functions in cotton. However, there are few reports on the possible neofunctionalization differences of CHI family paralogous genes involved in Fusarium wilt resistance in cotton. In this study, the resistance to Fusarium wilt, expression of metabolic pathway-related genes, metabolite content, endogenous hormone content, reactive oxygen species (ROS) content and subcellular localization of four paralogous CHI family genes in cotton were investigated. The results show that the four paralogous CHI family genes may play a synergistic role in Fusarium wilt resistance. These results revealed a genetic channelization mechanism that can regulate the metabolic flux homeostasis of flavonoids under the mediation of endogenous salicylic acid (SA) and methyl jasmonate (MeJA) via the four paralogous CHI genes, thereby achieving disease resistance. Our study provides a theoretical basis for studying the evolutionary patterns of homologous plant genes and using homologous genes for molecular breeding.

Project description:Verticillium wilt (VW) is a soil-borne fungal disease that is caused by Verticillium dahliae Kleb and seriously damages cotton production annually in China. To date, many efforts have been made to improve the resistance of upland cotton against VW, but little progress has been achieved because of a lack of resistant upland cotton to VW. G. barbadense is known to carry high resistance to VW; however, it is difficult to transfer the resistance trait from G. barbadense to upland cotton because of linkage drag and distortion in the interspecific hybrid. In this study, a chromosomal segment introgression line (CSIL), SuVR043, containing a single and homozygous chromosome segment of G. barbadense cv. H7124 D04 (Chr 22), was created and used to construct an F2 population for mapping of VW resistance quantitative trait loci (QTLs) in the greenhouse. Two major resistance QTLs against nondefoliating V. dahliae isolate Bp2, called qVW-Bp2-1 and qVW-Bp2-2, which were flanked by the markers cgr6409-ZHX37 and ZHX57-ZHX70 and explained an average of 16.38 and 22.36% of the observed phenotypic variation, respectively, were detected in three independent replicate experiments. The genetic distances from cgr6409 to ZHX37 and from ZHX57 to ZHX70 were 2.4 and 0.8 cM, respectively. By analyzing the genome sequence of the qVW-Bp2-1 and qVW-Bp2-2 regions, we determined that the accurate physical distances from cgr6409 to ZHX37 and from ZHX57 to ZHX70 in the G. barbadense genome are 254 and 140 kb, and that those spans 36 and 20 putative genes, respectively. The results of the expression analysis showed significant differences in the expression profiles of GbCYP450, GbTMEM214, and GbRLK among G. barbadense cv. H7124, CSIL SuVR043 and G. hirsutum acc. Sumian 8 at different times after inoculation with V. dahliae isolate Bp2. Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) analysis showed that silencing of GbCYP450 and GbTMEM214 decreased H7124 and CSIL SuVR043 resistance to VW. These results form a solid foundation for fine mapping and cloning of resistance genes in the substituted segment and will provide valuable assistance in future efforts to breed for VW resistance.
