Ralstonia solanacearum causes plant bacterial wilt disease, leading to severe crop losses. Xylem sap from R. solanacearum-infected tomato is enriched in host produced trehalose. Water stressed plants accumulate the disaccharide trehalose, which increases drought tolerance via abscisic acid (ABA) signaling networks. Because infected plants have reduced water flow, we hypothesized that bacterial wilt physiologically mimics drought stress, which trehalose could mitigate. Transcriptomic responses of susceptible vs. resistant tomato plants to R. solanacearum infection revealed differential expression of drought-associated genes, including those involved in ABA and trehalose metabolism. ABA was enriched in xylem sap from R. solanacearum-infected plants. Treating roots with ABA lowered stomatal conductance and reduced R. solanacearum stem colonization. Treating roots with trehalose increased ABA in xylem sap and reduced plant water use by reducing stomatal conductance and temporarily improving water use efficiency. Further, trehalose-treated plants were more resistant to bacterial wilt disease. Trehalose treatment also upregulated expression of salicylic acid (SA)-dependent defense genes, increased xylem sap levels of SA and other antimicrobial compounds, and increased wilt resistance of SA-insensitive NahG tomato plants. Additionally, trehalose treatment increased xylem concentrations of jasmonic acid and related oxylipins. Together, these data show that exogenous trehalose reduced both water stress and bacterial wilt disease and triggered systemic resistance. This suite of responses revealed unexpected linkages between plant responses to biotic and abiotic stress and suggests that that R. solanacearum-infected tomato plants produce more trehalose to improve water use efficiency and increase wilt disease resistance. In turn, R. solanacearum degrades trehalose as a counter-defense.

Bacterial Wilt Disease

AbstractPlant pathogenic Ralstonia cause wilt diseases by colonizing xylem vessels and disrupting water transport. Due to the abundance of Ralstonia cells in vessels, the dogma is that bacterial biomass clogs vessels and reduces the flow of xylem sap. However, the physiological mechanism of xylem disruption during bacterial wilt disease is untested. Using a tomato and Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum GMI1000 model, we visualized and quantified the spatiotemporal dynamics of xylem disruption during bacterial wilt disease. First, we measured stomatal conductance of leaflets on mock-inoculated and wilt-symptomatic plants. Wilted leaflets had reduced stomatal conductance, as did turgid leaflets located on the same petiole as wilted leaflets. Next, we used X-ray microcomputed tomography (X-ray microCT) and light microscopy to differentiate between mechanisms of xylem disruption: blockage by bacterial biomass, blockage by vascular tyloses, or sap displacement by gas embolisms. We imaged stems on plants with intact roots and leaves to quantify embolized vessels. Embolized vessels were rare, but there was a slight trend of increased vessel embolisms in infected plants with low bacterial population sizes. To test the hypothesis that vessels are clogged during bacterial wilt, we imaged excised stems after allowing the sap to evaporate during a brief dehydration. Most xylem vessels in mock-infected plants emptied their contents after excision, but non-conductive clogged vessels were abundant in infected plants by 2 days post infection. At wilt onset when bacterial populations exceeded 5×108 cfu/g stem tissue, approximately half of the xylem vessels were clogged with electron-dense bacterial biomass. We found no evidence of tyloses in the X-ray microCT reconstructions or light microscopy on the preserved stems. Bacterial blockage of vessels appears to be the principal cause of vascular disruption during Ralstonia wilt.
