Abstract

Systemic acquired resistance (SAR) has been reported to be associated with lesion-mimic mutants. Tobacco plants expressing vacuolar and apoplastic yeast-derived invertase (vaclnv and cwlnv, respectively) develop spontaneous necrotic lesions similar to hypersensitive responses caused by avirulent pathogens. Therefore, SAR and metabolic alterations leading to the activation of defense-related responses were studied in these plants. Defense-related gene transcripts, callose content, peroxidase activities, and levels of salicylic acid were found to be elevated. The defense reactions were accompanied by increased resistance toward potato virus Y and were measured as decreased viral spreading and reduced multiplication in systemic leaves of the transgenic plants. Interestingly, the accumulation of pathogenesis-related (PR) protein transcripts (PR-Q) and repression of photosynthetic gene transcripts (chlorophyll a/b binding protein) were inversely correlated and required the same threshold level of hexoses for induction and repression. Expression of a cytosolic yeast-derived invertase in transgenic tobacco plants with equally increased levels of sugars neither displayed SAR responses nor showed decreased levels of photosynthetic genes. It is suggested that hexose sensing in the secretory pathway is essential for mediating the activation of defense-related genes as well as repression of photosynthetic genes in vaclnv and cwlnv plants.

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.
