Antagonistic Effect of Salicylic Acid and Jasmonic Acid on the Expression of Pathogenesis-Related (PR) Protein Genes in Wounded Mature Tobacco Leaves

Abstract

Salicylic acid (SA) and jasmonic acid (JA) are essential compounds in the pathogen- and wound-signaling pathways accompanying induced expression of acidic and basic pathogenesis-related (PR) protein genes, respectively. However, on the effect of exogenously supplied SA and JA in induction of PR gene expression, conflicting results have been obtained using various plant materials at different developmental stages. There is no clear evidence on these effects in the presence of both signals at the same time. We analyzed the effect of SA on wound- and JA-induced basic PR gene expression and that of JA on SA-induced acidic Pi? gene expression in mature tobacco leaves. Wound-induced accumulation of transcripts for all 4 basic PR genes tested was enhanced in the presence of MeJA, and inhibited in the presence of SA. On the other hand, expression of all 3 acidic PR genes tested was induced by SA and was inhibited by MeJA. Using antibodies raised against acidic PR-1 and PR-2 proteins, these effects were confirmed at the protein level. These results indicated that JA works as an inducer of basic PR genes, and also as an inhibitor for acidic PR genes, while SA does the opposite.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
