Comparative proteomic analysis provides novel insights into the complex responses to Pseudoperonospora cubensis infection of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.)

ABSTRACT: Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) is an economically important vegetable crop distributed in over 80 countries. Downy mildew (DM) caused by the obligate oomycete Pseudoperonospora cubensis is especially destructive in cucumber production. So far, few studies on the changes in proteomes during the P. cubensis infection have been performed. Using a newly developed TMT-LC-MS/MS analysis, the proteomes of DM-resistant variety ‘ZJ’ and DM-susceptible variety ‘SDG’ under the P. cubensis infection were investigated. In total, 6400 proteins were identified, 5629 of which were quantified. The differential accumulated proteins (DAPs) exhibited various biological functions and diverse subcellular localizations. KEGG enrichment analysis showed that various metabolic pathways were significantly altered under the P. cubensis infection, such as terpenoid backbone biosynthesis, and selenocompound metabolism in ZJ, and starch and sucrose metabolism in SDG. Most of the enzymes associated with terpenoid backbone synthesis were significantly accumulated in ZJ rather than in SDG, suggesting that pathogen-induced terpenoids accumulation might play an important role in the resistance against P. cubensis infection. Furthermore, a number of pathogenesis-related proteins and heat shock proteins were identified as DAPs, suggesting that DM resistance was controlled by a complex network. Our data allowed us to identify and screen more potential proteins related to the DM resistance.

Project description:Background: Cylindrocladium parasiticum Crous, Wingfield & Alfenas, the causal agent of Cylindrocladium black rot (CBR) of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.), has leaded to economic losses in China. Learning about how peanut responds to C. parasiticum infection will be conducive to designing strategies for CBR control. However, the response of peanut plant to C. parasiticum is poorly understood. Results: In this study, two contrasting peanut cultivars, T09 (C. parasiticum-resistant) and P562 (C. parasiticum-susceptible) were used for comparative analysis of protein profiles in the root segment of peanut plants in responses to C. parasiticum infection. Proteomic profiling identified 1647 and 391 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in A. hypogaea L. P562 and A. hypogaea L. T09, respectively, compared to controls. A total of 350 and 1095 DEPs were identified between A. hypogaea L. P562 and A. hypogaea L. T09 before and after 9 dpi, respectively. Functional categorization by GO annotation showed that C. parasiticum-responsive proteins were mainly involved in catalytic activity and binding. The results of KEGG pathway analysis indicated both resistant and susceptible peanut cultivars can regulate gene expression in the phenylpropanoid pathway, terpenoid backbone biosynthesis, SA, and JA pathways to induce defensive genes and protein expression which enhances plant defence capacity. However, the MAPK signal pathway was more pronounced in resistant peanut cultivar T09. We also observed an increase of CYP73A100 involved in phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and flavonoid biosynthesis pathways in the susceptible peanut ecotype P562, while decrease in the resistant peanut ecotype T09, after 9 dpi. Additionally, there was a marked activation of brassinosteroid biosynthesis in the resistant T09, which indicated a possible involvement of activation of plant immune response in the resistant responses of peanut to C. parasiticum. Conclusions: This study provides some insights into the molecular networks involved on cellular and physiological responses to C. parasiticum infestation.
