Abstract
Comparative proteome analysis of Erysiphe pisi-infected pea genotypes; JI-2480 carrying er2 resistant gene and Arkel, the susceptible genotype by liquid chromatography- mass spectrometry (LCMS/MS QTOF) at 72 h post inoculation (hpi) revealed several differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) of both the host and the pathogen. The functional annotation of proteins through gene enrichment and KEGG pathway analyses revealed strong up-regulation of pathogenesis related protein NPR1, proteins related to defense, transportation and signal transduction, hypersensitive response, cell wall modifications, phenylpropanoid and metabolic pathways in J-72. Significant abundance of membrane-related polypeptides, kinase domains and small GTPase signal transduction-related proteins suggested their major role in plant defense. The abundance of cellular antioxidant protein, catalase and its isozyme along with calreticulin-1 and 2 in J-72 confirmed their intervention in maintaining a redox balance in powdery mildew defense. High abundance levels of Glycolysis-related proteins indicated it as a major pathway for energy source during fungal growth. The majority of pathogenicity and virulence genes were downregulated in J-72 compared to A-72, while four EKA (Effectors homologues to Avk1 and Avra10) like avirulence proteins were significantly upregulated in incompatible interaction suggesting their role in eliciting hypersensitive response in pea against E. pisi.
