Interactive responses of Solanum dulcamara to drought and insect feeding are herbivore species specific

ABSTRACT: In nature, plants are frequently subjected to multiple biotic and abiotic stresses, resulting in a convergence of adaptive responses. We hypothesized that hormonal signalling regulating defences to different herbivores may interact with drought response, causing distinct resistance phenotypes. To test this, we studied hormonal and transcriptomic responses of Solanum dulcamara subjected to drought and herbivory by the generalist Spodoptera exigua (BAW) or the specialist Leptinotarsa decemlineata (CPB). Bioassays showed that plants under drought became more resistant to BAW, but not to CPB. While drought did not alter BAW-induced hormonal responses, it enhanced CPB-induced accumulation of jasmonic acid and salicylic acid (SA) as well as supressed ethylene (ET) emission. Microarray analyses showed that under drought BAW herbivory enhanced several herbivore-induced responses, including cell-wall remodelling and metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids and secondary metabolites. In contrast, CPB herbivory enhanced several photosynthesis-related and pathogen responses in drought-stressed plants. This may divert resources away from the production of effective defences and increase tissue nutritive value. In conclusion, while BAW suffers from the drought-enhanced defences, CPB may benefit from effects of the enhanced SA and reduced ET signalling. This suggests that the fine-tuned interaction between the plant and its specialist herbivore is sustained under drought.

Effects of Drought and Flooding on Herbivore-Triggered Transcriptomic Response in Solanum dulcamara

Project description:We use Solanum dulcamara subjected to drought or flooding and damaged by Spodoptera exigua to analyze such interactions at multiple levels. Drought and herbivory caused comparable effects on S. dulcamara physiological response, which was reflected by a considerable overlap in S. dulcamara transcriptomic profiles. This included many defense responses and genes involved in biosynthesis of secondary metabolites that were induced by drought and herbivory but repressed by flooding. Furthermore, combination of drought and herbivory additively induced a part of these herbivore-induced responses suggesting that drought-stressed plants were more resistant. Our study provides concrete evidence of how abiotic stresses differentially affect the plant complex hormonal interactions to fine-tune plant responses to insects.

Slug feeding triggers dynamicmetabolomic and transcriptomic responses leading to induced resistance in Solanum dulcamara

Project description:Induced plant responses to insect herbivores are well studied, but we know very little about responses to gastropod feeding. We aim to identify the temporal dynamics of signalling- and defence-related plant responses after slug feeding in relation to induced resistance. We exposed Solanum dulcamara plants to feeding by the grey field slug (GFS; Deroceras reticulatum) for different periods and tested discs of local and systemic leaves in preference assays. Induced responses were analysed using metabolomics and transcriptomics. GFS feeding induced local and systemic responses. Slug feeding for 72h more strongly affected the plant metabolome than 24h feeding. It increased the levels of a glycoalkaloid (solasonine), phenolamides, anthocyanins, and trypsin protease inhibitors as well as polyphenol oxidase activity. Phytohormone and transcriptome analyses revealed that jasmonic acid, abscisic acid and salicylic acid signalling were activated. GFS feeding upregulated more genes than that it downregulated. The response directly after feeding was more than five times higher than after an additional 24h without feeding. Our research showed that GFS, like most chewing insects, triggers anti-herbivore defences by activating defence signalling pathways, resulting in increased resistance to further slug feeding. Slug herbivory may therefore impact other herbivores in the community.

Arabidopsis thaliana wild type and PDKO3 mutant mechanical damage (MD) vs herbivore wounding (HW)

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Arabidopsis thaliana wild type (WT) and a line mutated in genes encoding plasmodesmata (PD) proteins (PDKO3) comparing MD (mechanical damage) and HW (herbivore wounding). The differences in the biochemical responses to herbivory seen in the PDKO3 when compared to the WT line, together with the absence of growth/developmental phenotypes in the former, prompted us to search for less obvious differences between the lines using gene expression profiling.

Differential response to herbivory by Helicoverpa armigera in Cajanus cajan and Cajanus platycarpus

Project description:In synchrony with deciphering the transcriptomic basis of pod borer resistance in C. platycarpus, the aim of the present work was to corroborate and understand how the leaf proteome in these two contrasting cajanus species explain the differential responses to herbivory. To the best of our knowledge this is the first investigative analysis applying proteomics to understand plant herbivore interactions in cajanus species. The study is one of the best approaches to assess cellular alterations from a multi-level perception and to enhance our understanding of resistance traits in the wild relatives.

Overexpression of Brassica napus COMT1 in Arabidopsis heightens UV-B-mediated resistance to Plutella xylostella herbivory

Project description:UV-B radiation regulates numerous morphogenic, biochemical and physiological responses in plants, and can stimulate some responses typically associated with other abiotic and biotic stimuli, including invertebrate herbivory. Removal of UV-B from the growing environment of various plant species has been found to increase their susceptibility to consumption by invertebrate pests, however, to date, little research has been conducted to investigate the effects of UV-B on crop susceptibility to field pests. Here, we report findings from a multi-omic and genetic-based study investigating the mechanisms of UV-B-stimulated resistance of the crop, Brassica napus (oilseed rape), to herbivory from an economically important lepidopteran specialist of the Brassicaceae, Plutella xylostella (diamondback moth). The UV-B photoreceptor, UV RESISTANCE LOCUS 8 (UVR8), was not found to mediate resistance to this pest. RNA-Seq and untargeted metabolomics identified components of the sinapate/lignin biosynthetic pathway that were similarly regulated by UV-B and herbivory. Arabidopsis mutants in genes encoding two enzymes in the sinapate/lignin biosynthetic pathway, CAFFEATE O-METHYLTRANSFERASE 1 (COMT1) and ELICITOR-ACTIVATED GENE 3-2 (ELI3-2), retained UV-B-mediated resistance to P. xylostella herbivory. However, overexpression of B. napus COMT1 in Arabidopsis further reduced plant susceptibility to P. xylostella herbivory in a UV-B-dependent manner. These findings demonstrate that overexpression of a component of the sinapate/lignin biosynthetic pathway in a member of the Brassicaceae can enhance UV-B-stimulated resistance to herbivory from P. xylostella.

Maize transcriptional responses to specialist and generalist spider mite herbivores

Project description:Spider mites, including the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae, TSSM) and the Banks grass mite (Oligonychus pratensis, BGM), are becoming increasingly important agricultural pests. The TSSM is an extreme generalist documented to feed on more than 1100 plant hosts. In contrast, the BGM is a grass specialist, with hosts including important cereal crops like maize, wheat, and sorghum. Historically, studies of plant-herbivore interactions have focused largely on insects. As such, far less is known about plant responses to spider mite herbivores, especially in grasses, and whether responses differ between generalist and specialist mites. To identify plant defense pathways responding to spider mites, we collected time course RNA-seq data from maize (Zea mays) infested with TSSMs and BGMs. Additionally, and as a comparison to the physical damage caused by spider mite feeding, a wounding treatment was also included. In total, four biological samples were generated per treatment.
