Identification of Susceptibility Genes for Fusarium oxysporum in Cucumber via Comparative Proteomic Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Fusarium wilt (FW) in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.), caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cucumerinum (Foc), poses a major threat to cucumber growth and productivity. However, lack of available natural resistance resources for FW restricts the breeding of resistant cultivars via conventional approaches. Susceptibility (S) genes in susceptible host plants facilitate infection by the pathogen and contribute to susceptibility. Loss of function of these S genes might provide broad-spectrum and durable disease resistance. Here, we screened S genes via comparative proteomic analysis between cucumber cultivars Rijiecheng and Superina, which exhibited resistance and high -susceptibility to FW, respectively. We identified 210 and 243 differentially regulated proteins (DRPs) in the Rijiecheng and Sup
