Accumulation. of the signaling molecule salicylic acid (SA) is associated with many immune responses in plants, such as systemic acquired. SA- mediated immunity involves increased expression of a suite of responsive genes and subsequent, largely undefined, cellular.
Despite the presence of powerful plant defense responses, numerous. Given the importance of SA- mediated. SA- mediated host. To date, however, no known pathogen virulence mutants have been shown to be defective in evading or suppressing. TTSS genes are often clustered in a large pathogenicity island (PAI). Although direct evidence is lacking, acquisition. TTSS PAI through horizontal gene transfer is believed to have played a particularly important role in the evolution of.
Despite the differences. TTSS PAIs, including a partially overlapping conserved effector locus (CEL) (9, 1. Individual mutations in these effector genes do not significantly affect bacterial multiplication (1. Yet, deletion of these four effector genes as well as shc. M (the chaperone gene for hop. Pto. M; ref. 1. 2) and ORF2 (a putative chaperone gene for avr.
E) in the . Mutations in the dsp. A/E gene abolish the pathogenicity of E. Similarly, mutations in the dsp. E gene of Pantoea agglomerans pv. The molecular basis of the loss of virulence in these bacterial mutants is not understood. We show that these conserved bacterial effectors play a dual role in the inhibition of SA- mediated basal immunity.
Methods for plant growth and bacteria enumeration were described previously (1. Unless specified, all experiments reported in this paper were performed at least three times with similar results. Callose staining was performed 7- 9 h after bacterial inoculation as described previously, except that no dexamethasone was. Leaves were examined with a Zeiss Axiophot D- 7. Photomicroscope with an A3 fluorescence cube. The number of callose depositions.

The following wild- type (WT) and mutant bacterial strains were used: Pst DC3. WT; provided by Diane Cuppels, Southern Crop Protection and Food Research Centre, London ON, Canada), E. Construction of p.
ORF4. 3, which carries hop. Pto. M- shc. M in p.
UCP1. 9, was described previously (1. The Avr. Pto promoter was amplified by using Pst DC3. DNA, primer A (5. In p. EF, avr. E expression was controlled by its native promoter, and ORF2 expression was controlled by the heterologous avr.
Pto promoter. Total RNA was extracted from leaves by using the RNAgents isolation kit and following the manufacturer's instructions (Promega). Recent studies suggested that several type III effectors promote disease by suppressing the hypersensitive response (HR). HR cell death occurs much faster than disease- associated cell death in the same plant. If Dsp. A/E and CEL- encoded effectors. HR suppressors, we would expect to observe a more rapid, HR- like cell death response in host leaves infiltrated. OD6. 00 = 0. 2) of the dsp.
A/E or . However, neither the dsp. A/E mutant nor the Pst DC3. CEL mutant elicited an accelerated cell death in leaves of apple or Arabidopsis, respectively. On the contrary, both mutants caused much- delayed cell death, as indicated by slower tissue necrosis, compared.
WT bacteria, even at this high bacterial concentration (Fig. This result shows that CEL- encoded effectors and Dsp. A/E are not involved in the suppression of an HR. On the contrary. Dsp. A/E and CEL- encoded effectors are required for the development of host cell death that is associated with disease necrosis.
Responses of apple (cultivar Jonathan, Left) and Arabidopsis thaliana (ecotype Col- 0 gl. Right) to infiltration of high concentrations of bacteria suspensions (OD6. Apple leaves inoculated with WT E. Arabidopsis leaves inoculated with DC3. Arabidopsis leaves inoculated with the . Pictures were taken. We next examined the growth of the .
Nah. G plants cannot accumulate SA, owing to the degradation of SA by nah. G- encoded SA hydroxylase (3. Recent studies suggest that eds. Nah. G plants may be affected in overlapping but distinct pools of SA (3. Nah. G- mediated degradation of SA, may partially contribute to the loss of nonhost plant. These observations may explain the more significant increase of .
In contrast, no significant. This result suggests that, unlike the SA pathway, the ethylene- response.

Even though Arabidopsis leaves inoculated with the . Similarly, we found that apple leaves inoculated with the dsp. A/E mutant had a much higher level (. Thus, mutations in effector genes within the CELs of two different pathogens, Pst DC3. E. This reduction in virulence correlated with a severe impairment in their ability to.
Callose deposition in Arabidopsis and apple leaves. Below leaf images, average numbers of callose deposits per field of view (0. A previous study showed that the Pst DC3. C mutant, which cannot secrete any of the > 4. Arabidopsis (1. 8).
Furthermore, this cell wall defense was effectively suppressed by transgenic expression of the DC3. Avr. Pto. We found that the hrp. A mutant elicited very high levels of callose deposition in Col- 0, Nah. G, and eds. 5 leaves (Fig. A and D), confirming the SA- independent nature of cell wall- based immunity elicited by hrp/hrc mutants. B) or eds. 5 mutant (Fig. It is interesting to note that in Col- 0 leaves, the .

Callose deposition in Arabidopsis leaves. Genome- wide microarray analysis was conducted to further characterize SA- dependent activation and inactivation of cell wall- based.
Arabidopsis by WT Pst DC3. We used the 2. 2,5. ATH1 Arabidopsis Gene. Chip (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA), which contains nearly all of the Arabidopsis genes in the genome. Remarkably, the strong activation and repression of SA- dependent cell wall immunity by the .
None of the known SA- responsive genes was expressed at a significantly higher level in . PNAS web site). We also conducted Northern blot analysis of leaves inoculated with 1. Again, no significant difference in PR- 1 or PAD4 gene expression was observed (Fig. Thus, CEL effector- mediated inactivation of the SA- dependent cell wall- based immunity does not involve changes of classical. SA- responsive gene expression.
However, because the entire SA regulon in Arabidopsis has not been defined yet, we cannot exclude the possibility that CEL- encoded effectors modulate expression of some yetto- be- identified. SA- regulated genes. RNA gel blot analysis of PR- 1 and PAD4 expression 3, 6, and 9 h after infiltration of 1 . Below each autoradiogram is a picture of the ethidium bromide- stained 2. S ribosomal. RNA. In contrast to the single effector mutation in the E.
To identify the specific effector(s) involved in the suppression of SA- dependent cell wall defense in Arabidopsis, we carried out subclone- based complementation experiments. Two independent subclones, p. EF, which contains avr. E- ORF2, and p. ORF4. Pto. M- shc. M, partially or completely restored the ability of the . In contrast, a subclone.
W and hop. Pto. A1 genes neither increased the multiplication nor restored the ability to cause disease symptoms of the . Complementation of the .
In the chromosome, avr. E and ORF2 are encoded by two different, but adjacent, operons with opposite transcriptional directions (1. We had to use the heterologous avr. Pto promoter to drive the expression of ORF2 from one direction and the native avr. E promoter to drive the expression of avr.
E from the other direction in p. EF (see Materials and Methods). The incomplete complementation of the CEL mutation by the avr. E- ORF2 subclone may therefore be attributed to the use of the heterologous avr. Pto promoter. In contrast, the hop. Pto- shc. M genes are encoded by the same operon and we used their native promoter to drive the expression of both genes. Genomic analysis shows that P.
However, mutations in most effector genes do not show a large effect on bacterial virulence, presumably because of the. In contrast to most effectors, mutations. Hop. Pto. M/Avr. E families of effector genes often give a drastic virulence effect (9- 1. The strong virulence loss of the bacterial mutants defective in. We show here that the severe virulence defect of the Pst DC3. We show that the dsp.
A/E mutant of E. This result suggests that these two effector- chaperone pairs (Avr. E- ORF2 and Hop. Pto. M- Shc. M), which do not share any sequence. Arabidopsis- Pst DC3.
This functional redundancy in Pst DC3. E mutant or the hop. Pto. M mutant alone (1. Arabidopsis- specific reactions.
For example, even though the hop. Pto. M mutant is not affected in bacterial multiplication in tomato, it is reduced in causing disease symptoms in this host (1. On the other hand, the drastic effect of the dsp. A/E mutation in E.
We therefore tested the ability of Avr. Rpt. 2 to complement the Pst DC3.
However, Avr. Rpt. Interestingly. the general virulence function of Avr. Rpt. 2 appears to be independent of the ability of Avr.
