Abstract
Legumes establish nitrogen-fixing symbioses with rhizobia. On the contrary, they can be attacked concomitantly by pathogens, raising the question of potential trade-offs between mutualism and immunity.
In order to study such trade-offs, we used a tripartite system involving the model legume Lotus japonicus, its rhizobial symbiont Mesorhizobium loti and the soilborne pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum. We investigated the impact of mutualism on plant defense and the reciprocal influence of plant defense on mutualism.
We found that Lotus age-related resistance against Ralstonia was improved by the interaction with rhizobia especially when nodulation is triggered. Conversely, age-related resistance did not compromise nodule organogenesis or functioning under pathogen attack. Proteomic characterization indicates that this resistance is associated with distinct proteome modifications in roots and nodules.
This resistance questions the concept of interference between efficient defense reactions and mutualistic interactions and is of great interest for agricultural purposes as it not only restricts pathogen colonization, but would also preserve nitrogen fixation and yield.
期刊介绍:
New Phytologist is an international electronic journal published 24 times a year. It is owned by the New Phytologist Foundation, a non-profit-making charitable organization dedicated to promoting plant science. The journal publishes excellent, novel, rigorous, and timely research and scholarship in plant science and its applications. The articles cover topics in five sections: Physiology & Development, Environment, Interaction, Evolution, and Transformative Plant Biotechnology. These sections encompass intracellular processes, global environmental change, and encourage cross-disciplinary approaches. The journal recognizes the use of techniques from molecular and cell biology, functional genomics, modeling, and system-based approaches in plant science. Abstracting and Indexing Information for New Phytologist includes Academic Search, AgBiotech News & Information, Agroforestry Abstracts, Biochemistry & Biophysics Citation Index, Botanical Pesticides, CAB Abstracts®, Environment Index, Global Health, and Plant Breeding Abstracts, and others.
