Abscisic acid determines arbuscule development and functionality in the tomato arbuscular mycorrhiza

Abstract

The role of abscisic acid (ABA) during the establishment of the arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) was studied using ABA sitiens tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) mutants with reduced ABA concentrations. Sitiens plants and wild-type (WT) plants were colonized by Glomus intraradices. Trypan blue and alkaline phosphatase histochemical staining procedures were used to determine both root colonization and fungal efficiency. Exogenous ABA and silver thiosulfate (STS) were applied to establish the role of ABA and putative antagonistic cross-talk between ABA and ethylene during AM formation, respectively. Sitiens plants were less susceptible to the AM fungus than WT plants. Microscopic observations and arbuscule quantification showed differences in arbuscule morphology between WT and sitiens plants. Both ABA and STS increased susceptibility to the AM fungus in WT and sitiens plants. Fungal alkaline phosphate activity in sitiens mutants was completely restored by ABA application. * The results demonstrate that ABA contributes to the susceptibility of tomato to infection by AM fungi, and that it seems to play an important role in the development of the complete arbuscule and its functionality. Ethylene perception is crucial to AM regulation, and the impairment of mycorrhiza development in ABA-deficient plants is at least partly attributable to ethylene.

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.
