Production of Substances by Medicago truncatula that Affect Bacterial Quorum Sensing

Gao, Mengsheng, Teplitski, Max, Robinson, Jayne B., Bauer, Wolfgang D.·2003·Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions®

Abstract

Earlier work showed that higher plants produce unidentified compounds that specifically stimulate or inhibit quorum sensing (QS) regulated responses in bacteria. The ability of plants to produce substances that affect QS regulation may provide plants with important tools to manipulate gene expression and behavior in the bacteria they encounter. In order to examine the kinds of QS active substances produced by the model legume M. truncatula, young seedlings and seedling exudates were systematically extracted with various organic solvents, and the extracts were fractionated by reverse phase C 18 high-performance liquid chromatography. M. truncatula appears to produce at least 15 to 20 separable substances capable of specifically stimulating or inhibiting responses in QS reporter bacteria, primarily substances that affect QS regulation dependent on N-acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) signals. The secretion of AHL QS mimic activities by germinating seeds and seedlings was found to change substantially with developmental age. The secretion of some mimic activities may be dependent upon prior exposure of the plants to bacteria.

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.
