Abstract
Oligogalacturonides (OGAs) are a biologically active carbohydrate derived from homogalacturonan, a major element of cell wall pectin. OGAs induced resistance and mechanism were assessed in Arabidopsis thaliana-Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 (Pst DC3000) interaction. The effective resistance was mainly observed at 25 mg/L OGAs with reduced disease index, bacterial multiplication, higher transcript level of salicylic acid (SA) pathway related genes (PR1, PR2, PR5) and jasmonic acid (JA) pathway related genes (PDF1.2, VSP2) as well as SA, JA content and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), nitric oxide (NO). In SA (NahG, sid2) and JA (jar1) deficient mutants, disease severity indicated that both SA and JA pathways are necessary for Arabidopsis response to Pst DC3000. OGAs triggered less resistance to Pst DC3000 in JA-deficient mutant, and SA-deficient mutants signifying that SA and JA play redundant roles in OGAs induced resistance. Therefore, these evidences further reveal the signaling pathways of OGAs resistance, which is conducive to its application in agriculture to protect plants from diseases.
