Oxygenated Fatty Acids with Anti-rice Blast Fungus Activity in Rice Plants.

چکیده
Expecting that the different characteristics of rice plants against rice blast fungus, that is, susceptibility of the weaker cultivar, Sasanishiki and resistance of the stronger cultivars, Fukuyuki and Fukunishiki, may be due to the absence or presence of anti-fungus compounds in the rice plants, the anti-rice blast fungus substances in these three kinds of rice plants were explored. We found five epoxides and five allyl alcohols as anti-rice blast fungus compounds. The epoxides were 12,13-epoxy- and 9,10-epoxylinoleic acids, and 15,16-epoxy-, 12,13-epoxy-, and 9,10-epoxylinolenic acids. The allyl alcohols are 13-hydroxy and 9-hydroxy linoleic acids, and 16-hydroxy, 13-hydroxy, and 9-hydroxy linolenic acids. In inoculated Sasanishiki, the activity is due to the formation of the allyl alcohols.

Enhanced resistance to blast fungus and bacterial blight in transgenic rice constitutively expressing OsSBP, a rice homologue of mammalian selenium-binding proteins.
The rice Oryza sativa selenium-binding protein homologue (OsSBP) gene encodes a homologue of mammalian selenium-binding proteins, and it has been isolated as one of the genes induced by treating a plant with a cerebroside elicitor from rice blast fungus. The possible role of OsSBP in plant defense was evaluated by using a transgenic approach. Plants overexpressing OsSBP showed enhanced resistan...
متن کاملPathogen-induced production of the antifungal AFP protein from Aspergillus giganteus confers resistance to the blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea in transgenic rice.
Rice blast, caused by Magnaporthe grisea, is the most important fungal disease of cultivated rice worldwide. We have developed a strategy for creating disease resistance to M. grisea whereby pathogen-induced expression of the afp (antifungal protein) gene from Aspergillus giganteus occurs in transgenic rice plants. Here, we evaluated the activity of the promoters from three maize pathogenesis-r...
متن کاملFAR1 and FAR2 Regulate the Expression of Genes Associated with Lipid Metabolism in the Rice Blast Fungus Magnaporthe oryzae
The rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae causes plant disease via specialised infection structures called appressoria. These dome-shaped cells are able to generate enormous internal pressure, which enables penetration of rice tissue by invasive hyphae. Previous studies have shown that mobilisation of lipid bodies and subsequent lipid metabolism are essential pre-requisites for successful appres...
متن کاملOverexpression of Phosphomimic Mutated OsWRKY53 Leads to Enhanced Blast Resistance in Rice
WRKY transcription factors and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades have been shown to play pivotal roles in the regulation of plant defense responses. We previously reported that OsWRKY53-overexpressing rice plants showed enhanced resistance to the rice blast fungus. In this study, we identified OsWRKY53 as a substrate of OsMPK3/OsMPK6, components of a fungal PAMP-responsive MAPK c...

Magnaporthe grisea, also identified as rice blast fungus, rotten rice neck, rice seedling blight, oval leaf spot of graminea, blast of rice [1], pitting disease, ryegrass blast, and Johnson spot is a plant-pathogenic fungus that causes a serious disease affecting rice [2]. Rice blast, caused by Magnaporthe grisea, is considered the most important disease of rice worldwide [3] because of its ext...
