Are grapevine stomata involved in the elicitor-induced protection against downy mildew?

2009

Stomata, natural pores bordered by guard cells, regulate transpiration and gas exchanges between plant leaves and the atmosphere. These natural openings also constitute a way of penetration for microorganisms. In plants, the perception of potentially pathogenic microorganisms or elicitors of defense reactions induces a cascade of events, including H2O2 production, that allows the activation of defense genes, leading to defense reactions. Similar signaling events occur in guard cells in response to the perception of abscisic acid (ABA), leading to stomatal closure. Moreover, few elicitors were reported to induce stomatal closure in Arabidopsis and Vicia faba leaves. Because responses to ABA…

The Sulfated Laminarin Triggers a Stress Transcriptome before Priming the SA- and ROS-Dependent Defenses during Grapevine’s Induced Resistance agains…

Grapevine (Vitis vinifera) is susceptible to many pathogens which cause significant losses to viticulture worldwide. Chemical control is available, but agro-ecological concerns have raised interest in alternative methods, especially in triggering plant immunity by elicitor treatments. The b-glucan laminarin (Lam) and its sulfated derivative (PS3) have been previously demonstrated to induce resistance in grapevine against downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola). However, if Lam elicits classical grapevine defenses such as oxidative burst, pathogenesis-related (PR)-proteins and phytoalexin production, PS3 triggered grapevine resistance via a poorly understood priming phenomenon. The aim of this st…

Soybean and casein hydrolysates induce grapevine immune responses and resistance against Plasmopara viticola

2014

International audience; Plasmopara viticola, the causal agent of grapevine downy mildew, is one of the most devastating grape pathogen in Europe and North America. Although phytochemicals are used to control pathogen infections, the appearance of resistant strains and the concern for possible adverse effects on environment and human health are increasing the search for alternative strategies. In the present investigation, we successfully tested two protein hydrolysates from soybean (soy) and casein (cas) to trigger grapevine resistance against P. viticola. On Vitis vinifera cv. Marselan plants, the application of soy and cas reduced the infected leaf surface by 76 and 63%, as compared to th…

Effets de la nutrition et du génotype de la plante sur la résistance de Medicago truncatula à Aphanomyces euteiches

2016

SPEIPMUBAGROSUPINRA; Dans la nature, les plantes ont la capacité de mettre en oeuvre des réponses immunitaires pour faire face aux microorganismes pathogènes. Cependant, ces réponses de défense sont coûteuses en énergie et conduisent la plante à détourner une partie de ces ressources destinées à d’autres traits de vie comme la croissance. Ce compromis défense/croissance est largement conditionné par la disponibilité extérieure en nutriments. Afin de mieux décrire et comprendre les liens entre la nutrition et la défense, nous avons analysé l’impact de la nutrition azotée et l’effet de la variabilité génétique végétale sur la capacité de la légumineuse Medicago truncatula à résister à un agen…

Investigation of the physiological impact and the mode of action of the pyoverdine from Pseudomonas fluorescens on Arabidopsis thaliana : links with …

2015

Siderophores are strong iron chelators produced by bacteria under iron deficiency conditions. In the present work, we studied the impact of the siderophore pyoverdine, produced by the plant growth promoting rhizobacteria Pseudomonas fluorescens C7R12, on plant physiology from phenotypic to molecular effects with a specific focus on plant growth, immune response and iron homeostasis. Based on our analysis of the mode of action of the non-protein amino acid β-aminobutyric acid (BABA), a priming inducer in plants, we studied more specifically the functional link between iron homeostasis and plant immunity. Under iron deficiency, P. fluorescens excretes the iron free form of pyoverdine (apo-pyo…

The fight against grapevine pathogens is mainly carried out by pesticides, the continued use of which is harmful to the environment and the health of users and consumers. The main organizations in charge of viticulture set as a priority the research and use of alternatives to chemical control. However, the genetic improvement of the vine is prohibited in AOC vineyards to preserve the varietal typicity, partly responsible for the quality of the wines. In addition, research undertaken some fifteen years ago reveals that plants have their own immune defenses, which they activate on contact with the microorganisms they recognize via molecules called elicitors. In this context, the objective of …

Caracterisation of the mecanisms regulating membrane structuration modifications induced during defense response signalisation in plants

2020

Spatial distribution of pasma membranes (PM) components is tightly regulated to provide the cell an optimal physiological state. The level of order degree is a suitable parameter to study PM organization, reflecting the intensity of interactions taking place between PM components and so the level of their packing. During our work, we used the environment sensitive probe di-4-ANEPPDHQ to assess the level of order degree of tobacco BY-2 cells PM in different situations: during the time-course of cell regeneration and in the particular case of an elicitation by cryptogein.We measured that the level of order degree of PM is modulated during the slow process of cell regeneration. This regulation…
