Project description:The root-colonizing fungal endophyte Serendipita indica, formerly known as Piriformospora indica, is well known to promote plant biomass production and stress tolerance of its host plants. Co-cultivation of Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings with the fungus triggers a substantial induction of the growth of the root system. However, the molecular mechanisms by which the fungus promotes plant growth over an extended period of time is still unclear. We here report the comparative analysis of the effect of a mock- and S. indica-infection on wild-type Arabidopsis plants (Col-0) after 2 and 10 days of co-cultivation. Our data provide evidence for the induction of a number of genes that are consistingly induced during the plant–fungus interaction.

Project description:The root-colonizing fungal endophyte Serendipita indica, formerly known as Piriformospora indica, is well known to promote plant biomass production and stress tolerance of its host plants. Moreover, previous studies highlighted an important impact of the fungus on auxin homeostasis during the infection of Arabidopsis thaliana plants. Auxin is a key determinant of plant growth, including the growth of the root system. Auxin overproducing mutants, like for instance YUC9oe (Hentrich et al., 2013 Plant J.), show a pronounced root phenotype that can be restored by the co-cultivation with S. indica. We here report the comparative analysis of the effect of a mock- and S. indica-infection on both wild-type Arabidopsis plants (Col-0) and YUC9 overexpressing mutants. Our data provide evidence for the induction of GRETCHEN HAGEN 3 (GH3) genes that are involved in conjugating active free indole-3-acetic acid with amino acids. The fungus triggered induction GH3s is suggested to be involved in affecting the cellular auxin homeostasis.

Project description:High ambient temperature regulated the plant systemic response to the beneficial endophytic fungus Serendipita indica. Most plants in nature establish symbiotic associations with endophytic fungi in soil. Beneficial endophytic fungi induce a systemic response in the aboveground parts of the host plant, thus promoting the growth and fitness of host plants. Meanwhile, temperature elevation from climate change widely affects global plant biodiversity as well as crop quality and yield. Over the past decades, great progresses have been made in the response of plants to high ambient temperature and to symbiosis with endophytic fungi. However, little is known about their synergistic effect on host plants. The endophytic fungus Serendipita indica colonizes the roots of a wide range of plants, including Arabidopsis. Based on the Arabidopsis-S. indica symbiosis experimental system, we analyzed the synergistic effect of high ambient temperature and endophytic fungal symbiosis on host plants. By transcriptome analysis, we found that DNA replication-related genes were significantly upregulated during the systemic response of Arabidopsis aboveground parts to S. indica colonization. Plant hormones, such as jasmonic acid (JA) and ethylene (ET), play important roles in plant growth and systemic responses. We found that high ambient temperature repressed the JA and ET signaling pathways of Arabidopsis aboveground parts during the systemic response to S. indica colonization in roots. Meanwhile, PIF4 is the central hub transcription factor controlling plant thermosensory growth under high ambient temperature in Arabidopsis. PIF4 is also involving JA and/or ET signaling pathway. We found that PIF4 target genes overlapped with many differentially expressed genes (DEGs) during the systemic response, and further showed that the growth promotion efficiency of S. indica on the pif4 mutant was higher than that on the wild type plants.

Project description:The fungal mutualist Piriformospora indica is colonising barley roots thereby mediating various beneficial effects to its host. The interaction is characterised by an initial biotrophic interaction stage which is followed by a cell death-dependent colonisation phase. We used microarrays to identify the global programme of gene expression during the colonisation process of barley roots by P. indica and to obtain informations into plant defense and metabolic reprogramming. In three independent experiments plants were inoculated with Piriformospora indica. Samples from inoculated roots were taken at 1, 3, and 7 days after inoculation. Samples from uninfected control plants were taken at the same time points.

Project description:Broad-host root endophytes establish long-term interactions with a large variety of plants, thereby playing a significant role in natural and managed ecosystems and in evolution of land plants. To exploit plants as living substrates and to establish a compatible interaction with morphologically and biochemically extremely different hosts, endophytes must respond and adapt to different plant signals and host metabolic states. Here we identified host-adapted colonization strategies and host-specific effector candidates of the mutualistic root endophyte Piriformospora indica by a global investigation of fungal transcriptional responses to barley and Arabidopsis at different symbiotic stages. Additionally we examined the role played by nitrogen in these two diverse associations. Cytological studies and colonization analyses of a barley mutant and fungal RNAi strains show that distinct physiological and metabolic signals regulate host-specific lifestyle in P. indica. This is the foundation for exploring how distinct fungal and host symbiosis determinants modulate biotrophy in one host and saprotrophy in another host and, ultimately, gives hints into the mechanisms underlying host adaptation in root symbioses. Arabidopsis and barley roots were inoculated with Piriformospora indica and grown for 14 days. Additionally P. indica was grown on 1/10 PNM medium alone. Samples were taken 3 and 14 dpi (Arabidopsis), 14 dpi (barley) and 3dpi (1/10 PNM). Each experiment was performed in three independent biological repetitions. Piriformospora indica gene expression examined only.

Project description:Piriformospora indica, an endophytic fungus of Sebacinales, colonizes the roots of many plant species including Arabidopsis thaliana. The symbiotic interaction promotes plant per-formance, growth and resistance/tolerance against abiotic and biotic stress. We demonstrate that exudated compounds from the fungus activate stress and defense responses in the Arabidopsis roots and shoots before the two partners are in physical contact. They induce stomata closure, stimulate reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, stress-related phytohormone accumulation and activate defense and stress genes in the roots and/or shoots. Once a physical contact is established, the stomata re-open, ROS and phytohormone levels decline, and the gene expression pattern indicates a shift from defense to mutualistic interaction. We propose that exudated compounds from P. indica induce stress and defense responses in the host. Root colonization results in the downregulation of defense responses and the activation of genes involved in promoting plant growth, metabolism and performance.

Project description:The endophytic fungus Piriformospora indica is a member of Sebacinales. It colonizes the roots of many plant species including the model plant Arabidospis thaliana (Peskan-Berghofer et al. 2004). P. indica promotes plant growth (Peskan-Berghofer et al. 2004), seed production (Shahollari et al. 2007) and confers resistance to biotic (Camehl et al. 2011) and abiotic stresses (Sherameti et al., 2008, Matsuo et al., 2015). Vadassery et al. (2009) have shown that a cell wall extract from P. indica induces cytoplasmic calcium elevation in Arabidopsis Col-0 roots. Johnson et al. (2017) isolated an ethylmethane-induced mutant cycam (cytoplasmic calcium elevation mutant) which fails to induce cytoplasmic calcium elevation in response to the cell wall preparation. The active compound was identified as cellotriose (CT) (Johnson et al., 2017). The cycam mutant shows a wild-type response to treatment with chitin. The expression profiles compare the response of WT and cycam roots to treatments with CT and chitin.

Project description:The root-colonizing endophytic fungus Piriformospora indica promotes root and shoot growth of its host plants. We show that growth promotion of Arabidopsis leaves is abolished when the seedlings are grown on media with nitrogen (N) limitation. The fungus neither stimulated the total N content nor did it promote 15NO3- uptake from agar plates to the leaves of the host under N-sufficient or N-limiting conditions. However, when the roots were co-cultivated with 15N-labelled P. indica, more label can be detected in the leaves of N-starved host plants, but not of plants supplied with sufficient N. Amino acid and primary metabolite profiles, as well as expression analyses of N metabolite transporter genes suggest that the fungus alleviates the adaptation of its host to the N limitation condition. P. indica alters the expression of transporter genes which participate in relocation of NO3-, NH4+ and N metabolites from the roots to the leaves under N limitation. We propose that P. indica participates in the plant´s metabolomic adaptation to N limitation by delivering reduced N metabolites to the host, alleviating metabolic N starvation responses, and reprogramming the expression of N-metabolism related genes.

Twelve day-old (48 h cold treatment and 10 days of illumination) Arabidopsis seedlings of equal sizes were selected for co-cultivation experiments. They were transferred to PNM plates with a nylone membrane on the top (Johnson et al. 2011) and exposed to a fungal plug 5 mm in diameter or a KM plug of the same size without fungal hyphae (control). The plugs were placed 3 cm away from the closest root part . The light intensity (80 ± 5 μmol m-2 sec-1) was checked every third day to ensure that both P. indica- and mock-treated seedlings receive equal amounts of light.
