Disease-specific expression of host genes during downy mildew infection of Arabidopsis


ABSTRACT: Here we report on the identification of Arabidopsis genes that are induced during compatible but not during incompatible interactions with the downy mildew pathogen Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis. This set of so-called compatible specific (CS) genes contrasts the large group of defence-associated genes that is differentially expressed during both compatible and incompatible interactions. From the 17 identified CS-genes, 6 belong to the ERF family of transcription factor genes, suggesting that these ERFs have a role during compatibility. The majority of CS-genes are differentially regulated in response to various forms of abiotic stress. In silico analysis of the CS-genes revealed an over-representation of DREB1A/CBF3 binding sites and EveningElement motifs in their promoter regions. The CS-ERFs are closely related to the CBF transcription factors and could potentially bind the DREB1A/CBF3 promoter elements in the CS-genes. Transcript levels of CS-genes peak at 2-3 days post inoculation, when pathogen growth is highest, and decline at later stages of infection. The induction of several CS-genes was found to be isolate-dependant. This suggests that the identified CS-genes could be the direct or indirect targets of downy mildew effector proteins that promote disease susceptibility.
