Systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in plants is a defense response that provides resistance against a wide range of pathogens at the whole-plant level following primary infection. Although the molecular mechanisms of SAR have been extensively studied in recent years, the role of phosphorylation that occurs in systemic leaves of SAR-induced plants is poorly understood. We used a data-independent acquisition (DIA) phosphoproteomics platform based on high-resolution mass spectrometry in an Arabidopsis thaliana model to identify phosphoproteins related to SAR establishment. A total of 8011 phosphorylation sites from 3234 proteins were identified in systemic leaves of Pseudomonas syringae pv. maculicola ES4326 (Psm ES4326) and mock locally inoculated plants. A total of 859 significantly changed phosphoproteins from 1119 significantly changed phosphopeptides were detected in systemic leaves of Psm ES4326 locally inoculated plants, including numerous transcription factors and kinases. A variety of defense response-related proteins were found to be differentially phosphorylated in systemic leaves of Psm ES4326 locally inoculated leaves, suggesting that these proteins may be functionally involved in SAR through phosphorylation or dephosphorylation. Significantly changed phosphoproteins were enriched mainly in categories related to response to abscisic acid, regulation of stomatal movement, plant–pathogen interaction, MAPK signaling pathway, purine metabolism, photosynthesis-antenna proteins, and flavonoid biosynthesis. A total of 28 proteins were regulated at both protein and phosphorylation levels during SAR. RT-qPCR analysis revealed that changes in phosphorylation levels of proteins during SAR did not result from changes in transcript abundance. This study provides comprehensive details of key phosphoproteins associated with SAR, which will facilitate further research on the molecular mechanisms of SAR.

The protein encoded by AtDHyPRP1 (DOUBLE HYBRID PROLINE-RICH PROTEIN 1) contains two tandem PRD-8CMs (proline-rich domain-eight cysteine motif) and represents a new type of HyPRPs (hybrid proline-rich proteins). Confocal microscopy to transgenic Arabidopsis plants revealed that AtDHyPRP1-GFP was localised to plasmalemma, especially plasmodesmata. AtDHyPRP1 mainly expressed in leaf tissues and could be induced by salicylic acid, methyl jasmonate, virulent Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 (Pst DC3000) and avirulent P. syringae pv. tomato DC3000 harbouring avrRPM1 (Pst avrRPM1), suggesting it is involved in defence response of Arabidopsis thaliana (L. Heynh.). After treatments with bacterial suspension of virulent Pst DC3000 or conidial suspension of Botrytis cinerea, AtDHyPRP1 overexpressing lines exhibited enhanced resistance, whereas AtDHyPRP1 RNA interference lines became more susceptible to the pathogens with obvious chlorosis or necrosis phenotypes. In systemic acquired resistance (SAR) analyses, distal leaves were challenged with virulent Pst DC3000 after inoculation of the primary leaves with avirulent Pst avrRPM1 (AV) or MgSO4 (MV). Compared with MV, the infection symptoms in systemic leaves of wild-type plants and AtDHyPRP1 overexpressing lines were significantly alleviated in AV treatment, whereas the systemic leaves of AtDHyPRP1 RNAi lines were vulnerable to Pst DC3000, indicating AtDHyPRP1 was functionally associated with SAR.

Firefly Luciferase Gene

Abstract To identify Arabidopsis mutants that constitutively express systemic acquired resistance (SAR), we constructed reporter lines expressing the firefly luciferase gene under the control of the SAR-inducible PR-1 promoter (PR-1/luc). After EMS mutagenesis of a well-characterized transgenic line, we screened 250,000 M2 plants for constitutive expression of the reporter gene in vivo. From a mutant collection containing several hundred putative mutants, we concentrated on 16 mutants lacking spontaneous hypersensitive response (HR) cell death. We mapped 4 of these constitutive immunity (cim) mutants to chromosome arms. Constitutive expression of disease resistance was established by analyzing responses to virulent Peronospora parasitica and Pseudomonas syringae strains, by RNA blot analysis for endogenous marker genes, and by determination of salicylic acid levels in the mutants. The variety of the cim phenotypes allowed us to define distinct steps in both the canonical SAR signaling pathway and a separate pathway for resistance to Erysiphe cichoracearum, active in only a subset of the mutants.

Systemic acquired resistance (SAR) is an induced defense response that confers long-lasting protection against a broad range of microbial pathogens. Here we show that treatment of Brassica napus plants with the SAR-inducing chemical benzo-(1,2,3)-thiadiazole-7-carbothioic acid S-methyl ester (BTH) significantly enhanced resistance against virulent strains of the bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. maculicola and the fungal pathogen Leptosphaeria maculans. Localized preinoculation of plants with an avirulent strain of P. syringae pv. maculicola also enhanced resistance to these pathogens but was not as effective as BTH treatment. Single applications of either SAR-inducing pretreatment were effective against P. syringae pv. maculicola, even when given more than 3 weeks prior to the secondary challenge. The pretreatments also led to the accumulation of pathogenesis-related (PR) genes, including BnPR-1 and BnPR-2, with higher levels of transcripts observed in the BTH-treatment material. B. napus plants expressing a bacterial salicylate hydroxylase transgene (NahG) that metabolizes salicylic acid to catechol were substantially compromised in SAR and accumulated reduced levels of PR gene transcripts when compared with untransformed controls. Thus, SAR in B. napus displays many of the hallmarks of classical SAR including long lasting and broad host range resistance, association with PR gene activation, and a requirement for salicylic acid.

Abstract The fungicide tolprocarb (TPC) is a melanin biosynthesis inhibitor, but it may also have another mode of action. Here in tests of TPC for inducing plant systemic acquired resistance (SAR), TPC induced promoter activity of the tobacco pathogenesis-related gene PR-1a in Arabidopsis thaliana and genes for PBZ1, β-1,3-glucanase, and chitinase 1 in the defense-related salicylic acid (SA) signaling pathway in rice, but not genes for the jasmonate signaling pathway. Probenazole (PBZ), a commercially used plant defense activator, induced genes in both signaling pathways. The antibacterial activity of TPC was equivalent to that of PBZ. Irrigation with 200 μM TPC prevented growth by Pseudomonas syringae pv. maculicola in A. thaliana, and 30 μM TPC inhibited Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae growth in rice. The results of this study suggest that TPC functions not only as a melanin biosynthesis inhibitor but also as an SAR inducer and is applicable as a novel bacterial control agent that induces SAR activity in both A. thaliana and rice.

Acibenzolar-S-methyl (CGA 245704 or Actigard 50WG) is a plant activator that induces systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in many different crops to a number of pathogens. Acibenzolar-S-methyl was evaluated for management of bacterial spot (Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. vesicatoria) and bacterial speck (Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato) of tomato in 15 and 7 field experiments, respectively. Experiments were conducted over a 4-year period in Florida, Alabama, North Carolina, Ohio, and Ontario using local production systems. Applied at 35 g a.i. ha-1, acibenzolar-S-methyl reduced foliar disease severity in 14 of the 15 bacterial spot and all 7 bacterial speck experiments. Disease control was similar or superior to that obtained using a standard copper bactericide program. Acibenzolar-S-methyl also reduced bacterial fruit spot and speck incidence. Tomato yield was not affected by using the plant activator in the field when complemented with fungicides to manage foliar fungal diseases, but tomato transplant dry weight was negatively impacted. X. axonopodis pv. vesicatoria population densities on greenhouse-grown tomato transplants were reduced by acibenzolar-S-methyl treatment. Bacterial speck and spot population densities on leaves of field-grown plants were not dramatically affected. Acibenzolar-S-methyl can be integrated as a viable alternative to copper-based bactericides for field management of bacterial spot and speck, particularly where copper-resistant populations predominate.
