Gene Response

The Ferredoxin-NADP reductase (FNR) gene plays a significant role in NADPH production, carbon assimilation, antioxidation, and cross-talking between chloroplasts and mitochondria in plants. This study aims to know the functional response of the soybean FNR gene (GmFNR) during a soybean mosaic virus (SMV) infection. For this purpose, we developed the bean pod mottle virus (BPMV)-based gene construct (BPMV-GmFNR) and used it to silence the GmFNR gene in resistant and susceptible lines. The results showed that GmFNR expression decreased to 50% in the susceptible line, compared to 40% in the resistant line. The silencing of GmFNR reduces the photosynthetic capacity and CAT activity of both lines compared to their respective controls. In addition, the H2O2 content increased significantly in the susceptible line, whereas the resistant line did not exhibit any change. Further, an SMV infection in the silencing plants of the susceptible line resulted in serious morphological changes and increased the SMV NIa-protease transcript accumulation compared to its control plants. However, the same impact was not observed in the resistant line. The yeast two-hybrid system, BIFC assay, and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analyses revealed that the GmFNR was interacting with EF1A and coincided with the increased SMV accumulation. The results obtained in this study improve the understanding of the soybean FNR gene response during SMV infection and provide a novel insight into the SMV resistance mechanism.

Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) causes one of the most destructive viral diseases in soybean (Glycine max). The soybean cultivar Dabaima carries the Rsc4 gene for SMV resistance. The genomic region containing Rsc4 was previously localised within a 100-kb region on chromosome 14. The corresponding region contains three complete nucleotide-binding site (NB) and leucine-rich repeat (LRR) type genes and one incomplete gene that is likely non-functional. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis revealed that three candidate genes encoding NB-LRR proteins were differentially expressed in resistant and susceptible lines when the plants were inoculated with SMV strain SC4. To test the involvement of the three candidate genes in Rsc4 mediated resistance, the three genes were silenced using a Bean pod mottle virus (BPMV)-based vector construct. Silencing of three candidate genes attenuated the Rsc4-mediated resistance and induced SMV symptoms in Dabaima plants. Moreover, Rsc4 candidate genes were 78% downregulated when compared with the empty BPMV vector-treated plants. From these results, we concluded that at least one of the three candidate genes encoding NB-LRR proteins is required for Rsc4 resistance to SMV.

Soybean Seed Coat

Soybean seed coat mottling often has been a problematic symptom for soybean growers and the soybean industry. The percentages of seed in eight soybean lines with seed coat mottling were evaluated at harvest after inoculating plants during the growing season with Bean pod mottle virus (BPMV), Soybean mosaic virus (SMV), and both viruses inside an insect-proof cage in the field. Results from experiments conducted over 2 years indicated that plants infected with BPMV and SMV, alone or in combination, produced seed coat mottling, whereas noninoculated plants produced little or no mottled seed. BPMV and SMV inoculated on the same plants did not always result in higher percentages of mottled seed compared with BPMV or SMV alone. There was significant virus, line, and virus-line interaction for seed coat mottling. The non-seed-coat-mottling gene (Im) in Williams isoline L77-5632 provided limited, if any, protection against mottling caused by SMV and none against BPMV. The Peanut mottle virus resistance gene Rpv1 in Williams isoline L85-2308 did not give any protection against mottling caused by SMV, whereas the SMV resistance gene Rsv1 in Williams isoline L78-379 and the resistance gene or genes in the small-seeded line L97-946 gave high levels of protection against mottling caused by SMV. The correlations (r = 0.77 for year 2000 and r = 0.89 for year 2001) between virus infection of the parent plant and seed coat mottling were significant (P = 0.01), indicating that virus infection of plants caused seed coat mottling.

The incidence of soybean viruses is increasing across the North Central Region of the United States as indicated by survey efforts and grower reports from several states. To determine the level of virus infection in Nebraska, we surveyed soybean fields for two consecutive years. Alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) was detected in 52% of the fields in 2001 and in 56% of fields in 2002. The incidence of Bean pod mottle virus (BPMV) varied more, with 54% of fields testing positive in 2001 and 91% testing positive in 2002. Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) was not detected in 2001, but it was detected in 31% of fields in 2002. The widespread distribution of detected SMV in 2002 is suggestive of introduction with seed. The incidence of BPMV was significantly higher in fields planted earlier than the recommended optimum planting date in one of the two years studied. The widespread incidence of AMV and BPMV and the irregular occurrence of SMV indicate that further studies of soybean viral diseases in Nebraska are warranted. Accepted for publication 13 March 2006.

Virus Recovery

Rsv1, a single dominant gene in soybean PI 96983, confers resistance to most strains of Soybean mosaic virus (SMV), including strain G2. The phenotypic response includes the lack of symptoms and virus recovery from mechanically inoculated leaves. To study the resistance mechanism, SMV-N (an isolate of strain G2) was introduced into PI 96983 by grafting. Hypersensitive response (HR)-like lesions occurred on the stems, petioles, and leaf veins, and virus was recovered from these lesions. The response demonstrated the cytological and histological characteristics of HR as well as elevated transcription of a soybean salicylic acid-inducible, pathogenesis-related (PR-1) protein gene. Mechanical inoculation of PI 96983 primary leaves with a high level of SMV-N virions caused no symptoms or up regulation of the PR-1 protein gene transcript. Furthermore, inoculation with infectious viral RNA did not alter the resistance phenotype. The data suggest that interaction of SMV-N with Rsv1 has the potential to induce an HR-like defense reaction. Rsv1-mediated resistance in the inoculated leaf, however, is HR-independent and operates after virion disassembly.

Transgenic plants expressing double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) of virus origin have been previously shown to confer resistance to virus infections through the highly conserved RNA-targeting process termed RNA silencing or RNA interference (RNAi). In this study we applied this strategy to soybean plants and achieved robust resistance to multiple viruses with a single dsRNA-expressing transgene. Unlike previous reports that relied on the expression of one long inverted repeat (IR) combining sequences of several viruses, our improved strategy utilized a transgene designed to express several shorter IRs. Each of these short IRs contains highly conserved sequences of one virus, forming dsRNA of less than 150 bp. These short dsRNA stems were interspersed with single-stranded sequences to prevent homologous recombination during the transgene assembly process. Three such short IRs with sequences of unrelated soybean-infecting viruses (Alfalfa mosaic virus, Bean pod mottle virus, and Soybean mosaic virus) were assembled into a single transgene under control of the 35S promoter and terminator of Cauliflower mosaic virus. Three independent transgenic lines were obtained and all of them exhibited strong systemic resistance to the simultaneous infection of the three viruses. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of this very straight forward strategy for engineering RNAi-based virus resistance in a major crop plant. More importantly, our strategy of construct assembly makes it easy to incorporate additional short IRs in the transgene, thus expanding the spectrum of virus resistance. Finally, this strategy could be easily adapted to control virus problems of other crop plants.
