Project description:Recent studies have shown that several plant species require microbial associations for stress tolerance and survival. In this work, we show that the desert endophytic bacterium Enterobacter sp. SA187 enhances yield and biomass of alfalfa in field trials, revealing a high potential for improving desert agriculture. To understand the underlying molecular mechanisms, we studied SA187 interaction with Arabidopsis thaliana. SA187 colonized surface and inner tissues of Arabidopsis roots and shoots and conferred tolerance to salt and osmotic stresses. Transcriptome, genetic and pharmacological studies revealed that the ethylene signaling pathway plays a key role in mediating SA187-triggered abiotic stress tolerance to plants. While plant ethylene production is not required, our data suggest that SA187 induces abiotic stress tolerance by bacterial production of 2-keto-4-methylthiobutyric acid (KMBA), known be converted into ethylene in planta. These results reveal a part of the complex molecular communication process during beneficial plant-microbe interactions and unravel an important role of ethylene in protecting plants under abiotic stress conditions.

Project description:Microbes of the root-associated microbiome contribute to improve resilience and fitness of plants. In this study, the interaction between the salt stress tolerance-inducing beneficial bacterium Enterobacter sp. SA187 and Arabidopsis was investigated with a special focus on the plant immune system. Among the immune signalling mutants, the Lys-motif receptors LYK4 strongly affected the beneficial interaction. Overexpression of the chitin receptor components LYK4 compromised the beneficial effect of SA187 on Arabidopsis. Transcriptome analysis revealed that the role of LYK4 in immunity is intertwined with a function in remodeling defense responses. Overall, our data indicate that components of the plant immune system are key elements in mediating beneficial metabolite-induced plant abiotic stress tolerance.

Project description:Global warming has become a critical challenge to food safety, causing severe yield losses of major crops worldwide. Here, we report that the endophytic bacterium Enterobacter sp. SA187 induces thermotolerance of crops in a sustainable manner. Microbiome diversity of wheat plants is positively influenced by SA187 in open field agriculture, indicating that beneficial microbes can be a powerful tool to enhance agriculture in open field agriculture.

Project description:Enterobacter sp. SA187 is a plant growth-promoting bacterium (PGPB) that promotes growth of the crop plant alfalfa under saline irrigation and desert farming conditions. SA187 also enhances salt tolerance of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana under in vitro conditions. In the present study, we used a transcriptomic approach to elucidate the mechanisms underlying plant growth promotion by SA187 under salt stress. Compared to free-living SA187, a massive metabolic reprogramming of SA187 occurs upon association with Arabidopsis. This effect was largely independent of the plant growth condition (non-salt or salt stress). Our data revealed pronounced changes in gene expression of proteins involved in cell signaling, chemotaxis, flagella biosynthesis, quorum sensing and biofilm formation. Also, upon plant interaction, a complete reprograming of nutrients acquisition and the central carbon metabolism of SA187 was observed. Moreover, in accordance with the previously identified role of bacterially produced 2-keto-4-methylthiobutyric acid (KMBA) in mediating salt stress tolerance, the sulfur metabolism of SA187 was strongly induced. Overall, our results give a deep insight into the metabolic and signaling pathways involved in the transition from free-living to a plant-associated PGPB life style of SA187.

Project description:Although some mechanisms are known how plant growth beneficial bacteria help plants to grow under stressful conditions, we still know little how the metabolism of host plants and bacteria is coordinated during the establishment of functional interaction. In the present work, using single and dual transcriptomics, we studied the reprograming of metabolic and signaling pathways of Enterobacter sp. SA187 with Arabidopsis thaliana during the change from free-living to endophytic host-microbe interaction. We could identify major changes in primary and secondary metabolic pathways in both the host and bacteria upon interaction, with an important role of the sulfur metabolism and retrograde signaling in mediating plant resistance to salt stress. Also, we studied the effect of SA187 endogenous compounds and its role on sulfur metabolism and consequently salt tolerance. These data should help future research in the field of beneficial plant-microbe interactions for developing sophisticated strategies to improve agriculture of crops under adverse environmental conditions. transcriptome of Arabidopsis thaliana organs with beneficial microbe, beneficial microbe endogenous compound, and ethylene precursor

Project description:We demonstrated that pretreatment of darkgrown seedlings with ethylene followed by removal of ethylene and transfer to light results in long-term increases in growth. Tolerance to abiotic stresses also increases. Correlating with these changes are increases in photosynthesis and carbohydrate levels. The goal of this transcriptomic analysis was to gain insights into the transcriptional changes that occur to cause these changes in growth and stress tolerance.

Project description:Multiprotein bridging factor 1c MBF1c (At3g24500) is a stress-response transcription co-activator. To test the function of MBF1c, we over-expressed it in transgenic Arabidopsis plants using the 35S-CaMV promoter. T4 seeds form 3 independent lines were tested for their tolerance to biotic and abiotic stress conditions. Constitutive expression of MBF1c in Arabidopsis enhanced the tolerance of transgenic plants to bacterial infection, salinity, heat and osmotic stress. Moreover, the enhanced tolerance of transgenic plants to osmotic and heat stress was maintained even when these two stresses were combined. The expression of MBF1c in transgenic plants augmented the accumulation of a number of sugars and defense transcrtipts in response to heat stress. Transcriptome profiling and inhibitor studies suggest that MBF1c expression enhances the tolerance of transgenic plants to heat and osmotic stress by partially activating, or perturbing, the ethylene-response signal transduction pathway. MBF1 proteins could be used to enhance the tolerance of plants to different abiotic stresses. Suzuki et al., 2005 Plant Physiology, submitted.

Project description:Following pathogen infection, plants have developed diverse mechanisms of defense that enhance their immune system for more robust induction of defense responses against recurrent environmental stresses. This induced resistance can be heritable to the progeny, rendering them more tolerant to stressful events. Although within-generational induction of tolerance to abiotic stress is a well-documented phenomenon in virus-infected plants, the transgenerational inheritance of tolerance to abiotic stresses in their progenies has not been explored. Here, we show that infection of Nicotiana benthamiana plants by Potato virus X (PVX) and by a chimeric Plum pox virus (PPV) expressing the P25 protein of PVX (PPV-P25), but not by PPV, conferred tolerance to both salt and osmotic stresses to the progeny, which correlated with the level of virulence of the pathogen. This transgenerational tolerance to abiotic stresses in the progeny was partially sustained even if the plants experience a virus-free generation. Moreover, progenies from a Dicer-like3 mutant, irrespective whether their parents were infected or not, mimicked the enhanced tolerance to abiotic stress observed in progenies of PVX-infected wild-type plants, suggesting the involvement of 24-nt small interfering RNAs in the transgenerational tolerance to abiotic stress induced by virus infection. RNAseq analysis supported the upregulation of genes related to protein folding and response to stress in the progeny of PVX-infected plants. From an environmental point of view, the significance of virus-induced transgenerational tolerance to abiotic stress could be questionable, as its induction was offset by major reproductive costs arising from a detrimental effect on seed production
