A β-1,3 Glucan Sulfate Induces Resistance in Grapevine against Plasmopara viticola Through Priming of Defense Responses, Including HR-like Cell Death
Sulfated laminarin (PS3) has been shown previously to be an elicitor of plant defense reactions in tobacco and Arabidopsis and to induce protection against tobacco mosaic virus. Here, we have demonstrated the efficiency of PS3 in protecting a susceptible grapevine cultivar (Vitis vinifera cv. Marselan) against downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola) under glasshouse conditions. This induced resistance was associated with potentiated H2O2 production at the infection sites, upregulation of defense-related genes, callose and phenol depositions, and hypersensitive response-like cell death. Interestingly, similar responses were observed following P. viticola inoculation in a tolerant grapevine hybri…

ß-1,4 cellodextrins, ß-1,3 glucans and a-1,4 oligogalacturonides are potent elicitors of various defense-related responses in grapevine
International audience; Plant cell-wall degradation products can be considered as ‘microbe-induced molecular patterns’ (MIMPs) recognized through plant receptors as ‘pathogen-induced modified self’. So cell-wall oligosaccharides originating from plants can play an important role in the perception of the invading pathogen by the plant. Cellodextrins (CD) are the end-products from cellulose degradation in plant cell walls, consisting og a linear ß-(1,4) linked glucose backbone. The role of these oligosaccharides in triggering plant defense reactions has not yet been established. Here, we investigated the elicitor activity of CD oligomers in grapevine cells. We show that CD triggered induction…

Bacterial rhamnolipids are novel MAMPs conferring resistance to Botrytis cinerea in grapevine
International audience; Rhamnolipids produced by the bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa are known as very efficient biosurfactant molecules. They are used for a wide range of industrial applications, especially in food, cosmetics and pharmaceutical formulations as well as in bioremediation of pollutants. In this paper, the role of rhamnolipids as novel molecules triggering defence responses and protection against the fungus Botrytis cinerea in grapevine is presented. The effect of rhamnolipids was assessed in grapevine using cell suspension cultures and vitro-plantlets. Ca2+ influx, mitogen-activated protein kinase activation and reactive oxygen species production form part of early signalling…
Elicitor and resistance-inducing activities of -1,4 cellodextrins in grapevine, comparison with -1,3 glucans and -1,4 oligogalacturonides
Cellodextrins (CD), water-soluble derivatives of cellulose composed of beta-1,4 glucoside residues, have been shown to induce a variety of defence responses in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) cells. The larger oligomers of CD rapidly induced transient generation of H2O2 and elevation in free cytosolic calcium, followed by a differential expression of genes encoding key enzymes of the phenylpropanoid pathway and pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins as well as stimulation of chitinase and beta-1,3 glucanase activities. Most of these defence reactions were also induced by linear beta-1,3 glucans (betaGlu) and alpha-1,4 oligogalacturonides (OGA) of different degree of polymerization (DP), but the i…
Caractérisation du mode d’action des rhamnolipides dans la défense des plantes et l’induction d’une résistance contre des agents phytopathogènes biotrophes et nécrotrophes
National audience; Les rhamnolipides (RL) sont des glycolipides amphiphiles produits par différentes bactéries notamment du genre Pseudomonas et Burkholderia. Les RL comprennent généralement une chaîne d’acides gras couplée à un ou plusieurs rhamnoses. Il sont impliqués dans la formation de biofilms, dans la mobilité bactérienne et constituent, pour certaines bactéries, des facteurs de virulence (Vatsa et al. 2010). Nous avons montré que les RL sont perçus en tant qu’éliciteurs par les cellules de vigne et que cette reconnaissance provoque un influx de Ca2+, l’activation de plusieurs MAPK (Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase), la production de formes actives de l’oxygène ainsi que l’expression…
