Effect of cadmium on growth, isoflavonoid and protein accumulation patterns in mycorrhizal roots of Medicago truncatula
2007
International audience; Ecosystems are submitted to various abiotic stresses, among which heavy metals represent major industrial pollutants. Cadmium (Cd), that has damaging effects on plant metabolism, occurs in agricultural environments through industrial pollution and human activities, including phosphate fertiliser and sewage sludge applications. Metal availability to plants can be modulated by soil microorganisms, including arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. In the present work, Cd effects on the model legume Medicago truncatula inoculated or not with the AM fungus Glomus intraradices have been studied at 3 levels: (1) plant biomass production together with green part chlorophyll quant…
Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM): the first glomeromycotan sugar transporter is characterized by using the unique geosiphon symbiosis with cyanobacteria to…
2007
International audience; In the arbuscular mycorrhizas (AM), the symbiotic interface is the site of nutrient exchange where the mycobiont receives up to 20% of the photosynthates of the photobiont as carbohydrates. We have, for the first time, functionally characterised a monosaccharide transporter type, represented by GpMST1, putatively playing a role in this process (Schüßler, A., Martin, H., Cohen, D., Fitz, M., and Wipf, D. 2006. Characterization of a carbohydrate transporter from symbiotic glomeromycotan fungi. Nature 444:933-936.). Together with the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, forming endomycorrhiza with the majority of land plants, Geosiphon pyriformis belongs to the Glomeromyc…
Arbuscular mycorhizal proteomes: what news at the nearby and distant horizon?
2007
International audience; Proteomics has soon emerged as a powerful tool to point out protein modifications in roots interacting with arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) fungi. Depending on the developmental mycorrhizal stage and on the available amount of mycorrhizal material, untargeted and/or sub-cellular proteomic approaches were applied to reveal and identify proteins whose accumulation was modified during the AM colonisation of Medicago truncatula roots. For the early stage of symbiosis, the protein patterns obtained from noninoculated roots and roots synchronized for appressorium formation in wild-type (Jemalong J5), penetration-defective (TRV25, dmi3) and autoregulation-defective (TR122, sunn)…

Many agricultural soils are naturally poor in plant available phosphorus (P), although total P stocks can exceed plant requirements by more than 100-fold. The reason for such apparent contradiction is that P is complexed under organic and inorganic forms, but only free inorganic orthophosphate (Pi) ions are available to plants and soil organisms. The high immobility of Pi in soil, the low soil solution circulation associated with a rapid root absorption lead to the development of a depletion zone around the roots. As a consequence, P is frequently a limiting factor for plant growth and development.Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are estimated to colonize the vast majority of crop plants a…
Genes encoding transcription factors in Glomus intraradices and their expression at the appressoria stage of arbuscular mycorrhiza interactions
2007
International audience; Molecular pathways governing the life cycle of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and their symbiotic interactions with root tissues are not yet fully understood. Most studies fo fungal responses to host plants have targeted developmental stages before root contact (germinating spores), or after root colonization (intraradical mycelium). We are focusing on the early cell events of appressoria contact with the root surface which are essential to the successful outcome of the AM symbiosis. Recent monitoring of Glomus intraradices gene expression at this stage has revealed differential fungal responses to roots of host and non-host (Myc- mutants) M. truncatula (Seddas et…
Contribution of proteomics to arbuscular mycorrhiza in Medicago truncatula
2007
International audience; Because proteins are key effectors of plant responses to environmental cues including recognition, signalling, transport and defence reactions, main interest has been paid to characterize those involved in the establishment and functioning of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis. In our group, the setting up of high throughput proteomic techniques on the model species, Medicago truncatula, is providing step-by-step a large-scale analysis of AM symbiosis-related proteins. Depending on the symbiotic stage targeted and on the abundance of mycorrhizal material, different proteomic strategies that can be combined with other large-scale approaches (transcriptomic and meta…

French : Dans son environnement, la plante interagit sans cesse avec des microorganismes. Elle est confrontée à une variété de microorganismes bénéfiques, neutres ou pathogènes, qui sont fortement dépendants des ressources carbonées que la plante libère dans le sol, leur conférant ainsi un apport de nutriments et d’énergie nécessaire à leur développement. La mycorhize à arbuscules est une symbiose mutualiste formée par 80% des plantes terrestres datant de l’Ordovicien, i.e. environ 450 millions d’années avant notre ère. L’ensemble des travaux de recherche présenté au sein de ce manuscrit, s’inscrit dans le cadre de deux objectifs généraux : (i) acquérir une meilleure compréhension des mécan…
Interactions between a mycorrhiza helper bacterium and arbuscular mycorrhizas
2009
Pseudomonas fluorescens C7R12 was shown to promote arbuscular mycorrhization and to act as a ‘Mycorrhiza Helper Bacteria’ (MHB). The complex interactions between this model strain, Arbuscular Mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and host-plants were analysed by assessing the specificity of these interactions and by characterizing bacterial cell organization on mycorrhizal roots. Evaluation of the interaction specificity relied on the comparison of the bacterial effect on (i) the in vitro saprophytic growth of Glomus mosseae and Gigasopora rosea and (ii) the root colonization of two different plant species (Medicago truncatula and Lycopersicon esculentum) by the two AM fungal species. Characterization of …
