Suppression of Defense Response Related to Plant Cell Wall
نویسنده
چکیده
In plant–parasite interactions, “effectors” are thought to play an important role in suppressing the innate immune response, but the vast majority of effector functions and host target molecules remain unclear, except for several combinations. A pea pathogenic fungus, Mycosphaerella pinodes, secretes compounds that block defense responses of the host plants only and also induce local susceptibility (“accessibility”), even to avirulent pathogens. These compounds have been called “suppressors” or “suppressors of defense.” The M. pinodes-suppressors, which are low-molecular weight mucin-type glycopeptides, were named supprescins and their presence markedly blocked elicior-induced resistance, such as the generation of superoxide, formation of infection-inhibitors, production of phytoalexin and so on, in host plants. For three decades from 1977, it was found that supprescins disturb the fundamental functions of the host cells, particularly apyrase and redox enzymes in the host cell wall in a speciesspecific manner. In this review, the role of supprescins with the plant cell wall in determining specificity was introduced.

Callose-mediated resistance to pathogenic intruders in plant defense-related papillae
Plants are exposed to a wide range of potential pathogens, which derive from diverse phyla. Therefore, plants have developed successful defense mechanisms during co-evolution with different pathogens. Besides many specialized defense mechanisms, the plant cell wall represents a first line of defense. It is actively reinforced through the deposition of cell wall appositions, so-called papillae, ...
متن کاملTranscript analysis of some defense genes of tomato in response to host and non-host bacterial pathogens
The transcript levels of six defense genes including pathogenesis-related gene 1 (PR-1), pathogenesis-related gene 2 (PR-2), pathogenesis-related gene 5 (PR-5), lipoxygenase (LOX), phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) and catalase (CAT) were investigated in tomato plants inoculated with Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli as a non-host pathogen and X. euvesicatoria as a host pathogen. Activation o...
متن کاملChanges of major wall polysaccharides and glycoproteins of tobacco cells in response to excess boron
Effects of excess concentrations of boron on major cell wall components of tobacco cells(Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Burley 21) were studied. Pectin, xyloglucan, hydroxyproline-richglycoproteins (extensin), and arabinogalactan proteins were characterized. Results showedthat increased boron supply resulted in significant decrease in cell and cell wall dry weights.Also, high concentrations of boron ...
متن کاملEffect of cytochalasin D on defense responses of potato tuber discs treated with hyphal wall components of Phytophthora infestans
Cytoplasmic aggregation, the rapid translocation of cytoplasm and organelles to the site of fungal penetration of a cell, occurs in potato tissue after penetration of an incompatible race of Phytophthora infestans, the late blight fungus, or treatment with hyphal wall components (HWC) prepared from P. infestans. This phenomenon is thought to be one of the defense reactions of plant against path...
متن کاملSeparable fragments and membrane tethering of Arabidopsis RIN4 regulate its suppression of PAMP-triggered immunity.
RPM1-interacting protein 4 (RIN4) is a multifunctional Arabidopsis thaliana protein that regulates plant immune responses to pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and bacterial type III effector proteins (T3Es). RIN4, which is targeted by multiple defense-suppressing T3Es, provides a mechanistic link between PAMP-triggered immunity (PTI) and effector-triggered immunity and effector sup...
