The success of all plant-parasitic nematodes is dependent on the completion of several complex behaviors. The lesion nematode Pratylenchus penetrans is an economically important parasite of a diverse range of plant hosts. Unlike the cyst and root-knot nematodes, P. penetrans moves both within and outside of the host roots and can feed from both locations. Adult females of P. penetrans require insemination by actively moving males for reproduction and can lay eggs both within and outside of the host roots. We do not have a complete understanding of the molecular basis for these behaviors. One candidate modulator of these behaviors is the neurotransmitter serotonin. Previous research demonstrated an effect of exogenously applied serotonin on the feeding and male mating behaviors of cyst and root-knot nematodes. However, there are no data on the role of exogenous serotonin on lesion nematodes. Similarly, there are no data on the presence and function of endogenous serotonin in any plant-parasitic nematode. Here, we establish that exogenous serotonin applied to P. penetrans regulates both feeding and sex-specific behaviors. Furthermore, using immunohistochemistry and pharmacological assays, our data suggest that P. penetrans utilizes endogenous serotonin to regulate both feeding and sex-specific behaviors.

Abstract BackgroundThe high content of oil and protein makes peanut the main oil and edible crop in the world. Root-knot nematode forms root-knot by infecting peanut roots, which lead to poor development of peanut roots and seriously restricts the yield of peanut in the world. With the release of peanut genome, a large number of genetic loci controlling peanut root-knot nematode have been detected, but the molecular mechanism of root-knot nematode is still unclear. ResultsThe whole transcriptome RNA-seq was used to reveal the divergent response to root-knot nematode stress in peanut roots. A total of 430 mRNAs, 111 miRNAs, 4453 lncRNAs and 123 circRNAs were identified differential expression between infected and no-infected peanut, respectively. To understand the potential mechanisms in response to root-knot nematodes in peanut roots, the expression profiles of lncRNA/circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network were constructed. A total of 10 lncRNAs, 4 circRNAs, 5 miRNAs and 13 mRNAs can regularly the expression of mRNA during root-knot nematodes stress by forming competing endogenous RNA and participate in oxidation-reduction process and other various biological metabolism pathways in peanut. The results gained will reveal the role of ceRNAs of peanut in response to root-knot nematodes.ConclusionThe GO classification and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis of core regulatory networks revealing the ceRNAs participate in oxidation-reduction, peroxidase activity, lignin synthesis in xylem and flavonoid synthesis process. Overall, those results could gain the knowledge of the role of no-coding RNAs in response to root-knot nematodes.
