Abstract
Clubroot is a destructive root disease of canola (Brassica napus L.) caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae Woronin. Despite extensive research into the molecular responses of B. napus to P. brassicae, there is limited information on proteome- and metabolome-level changes in response to the pathogen, especially during the initial stages of infection. In this study, we have investigated the proteome- and metabolome- level changes in the roots of clubroot-resistant (CR) and -susceptible (CS) doubled-haploid (DH) B. napus lines, in response to P. brassicae pathotype 3H at 1-, 4-, and 7-days post-inoculation (DPI). Root proteomes were analyzed using nanoflow liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (nano LC-MS/MS). Comparisons of pathogen-inoculated and uninoculated root proteomes revealed 2515 and 1556 differentially abundant proteins at one or more time points (1-, 4-, and 7-DPI) in the CR and CS genotypes, respectively. Several proteins related to primary metabolites (e.g., amino acids, fatty acids, and lipids), secondary metabolites (e.g., glucosinolates), and cell wall reinforcement-related proteins [e.g., laccase, peroxidases, and plant invertase/pectin methylesterase inhibitors (PInv/PMEI)] were identified. Eleven nucleotides and nucleoside-related metabolites, and eight fatty acids and sphingolipid-related metabolites were identified in the metabolomics study. To our knowledge, this is the first report of root proteome-level changes and associated alterations in metabolites during the early stages of P. brassicae infection in B. napus.

ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2024; 272:116044. [PMID: 38295732 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2024.116044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2023] [Revised: 01/02/2024] [Accepted: 01/27/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024]
Abstract
5-Methoxy-N-methyl-N-isopropyltryptamine (5-MeO-MiPT) is a novel psychoactive substance exhibiting a tryptamine structure. Despite its increasing prevalence, the environmental impact of 5-MeO-MiPT remains unexplored. Our prior investigation revealed that 5-MeO-MiPT induced inhibited spontaneous movement and prompted anxiety-like behavior in adult zebrafish-a validated toxicological model. To elucidate this phenomenon and establish a correlation between metabolomics and behavioral changes induced by 5-MeO-MiPT, zebrafish were administered varying drug concentrations. Zebrafishes were subjected to injections of different 5-MeO-MiPT concentrations. Subsequent metabolomic analysis of endogenous metabolites affected by the drug unveiled substantial variations in metabolic levels between the control group and the drug-injected cohorts. A total of 22 distinct metabolites emerged as potential biomarkers. Further scrutiny identified seven pathways significantly influenced by 5-MeO-MiPT. A focused exploration into amino acid metabolism, lipid metabolism, and energy metabolism unveiled that the metabolic repercussions of 5-MeO-MiPT on zebrafish resulted in observable brain damage. Notably, the study identified a consequential disruption in the liver-brain pathway. The comprehensive metabolomic approach employed herein effectively discerned the impact of 5-MeO-MiPT on zebrafish metabolism. This approach also shed light on the mechanism underpinning the anxiety-like behavior observed in zebrafish post-drug injection. Specifically, our findings indicate that 5-MeO-MiPT induces brain damage, particularly within the liver-brain pathway.

Abstract
Rice (Oryza sativa) is a crucial crop, achieving high yield concurrent pathogen resistance remains a challenge. Transcription factors play roles in growth and abiotic tolerance. However, rice phytochrome-interacting factor-like 1 (OsPIL1) in pathogen resistance and agronomic traits remains unexplored. We generated OsPIL1 overexpressing (OsPIL1 OE) rice lines and evaluated their impact on growth, grain development, and resistance to Magnaporthe oryzae. Multiomics analysis (RNA-seq, metabolomics, and CUT&Tag) and RT-qPCR validated OsPIL1 target genes and key metabolites. In the results, OsPIL1 OE rice lines exhibited robust growth, longer grains, and enhanced resistance to M. oryzae without compromising growth. Integrative multiomics analysis revealed a coordinated regulatory network centered on OsPIL1, explaining these desirable traits. OsPIL1 likely acts as a positive regulator, targeting transcriptional elements or specific genes with direct functions in several biological programs. In particular, a range of key signaling genes (phosphatases, kinases, plant hormone genes, transcription factors), and metabolites (linolenic acid, vitamin E, trigonelline, d-glucose, serotonin, choline, genistein, riboflavin) contributed to enhanced rice growth, grain size, pathogen resistance, or a combination of these traits. These findings highlight OsPIL1's regulatory role in promoting important traits and provide insights into potential strategies for rice breeding.

Phosphorus and Serendipita indica synergism augments arsenic stress tolerance in rice by regulating secondary metabolism related enzymatic activity and root metabolic patterns. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2023; 256:114866. [PMID: 37023649 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.114866] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2023] [Revised: 03/29/2023] [Accepted: 04/01/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
The multifarious problems created by arsenic (As), for collective environment and human health, serve a cogent case for searching integrative agricultural approaches to attain food security. Rice (Oryza sativa L.) acts as a sponge for heavy metal(loid)s accretion, specifically As, due to anaerobic flooded growth conditions facilitating its uptake. Acclaimed for their positive impact on plant growth, development and phosphorus (P) nutrition, 'mycorrhizas' are able to promote stress tolerance. Albeit, the metabolic alterations underlying Serendipita indica (S. indica; S.i) symbiosis-mediated amelioration of As stress along with nutritional management of P are still understudied. By using biochemical, RT-qPCR and LC-MS/MS based untargeted metabolomics approach, rice roots of ZZY-1 and GD-6 colonized by S. indica, which were later treated with As (10 µM) and P (50 µM), were compared with non-colonized roots under the same treatments with a set of control plants. The responses of secondary metabolism related enzymes, especially polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activities in the foliage of ZZY-1 and GD-6 were enhanced 8.5 and 12-fold, respectively, compared to their respective control counterparts. The current study identified 360 cationic and 287 anionic metabolites in rice roots, and the commonly enriched pathway annotated by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis was biosynthesis of phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan, which validated the results of biochemical and gene expression analyses associated with secondary metabolic enzymes. Particularly under As+S.i+P comparison, both genotypes exhibited an upregulation of key detoxification and defense related metabolites, including fumaric acid, L-malic acid, choline, 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid, to name a few. The results of this study provided the novel insights into the promising role of exogenous P and S. indica in alleviating As stress.

[PMID: 35406958 PMCID: PMC9002579 DOI: 10.3390/plants11070978] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2022] [Revised: 03/25/2022] [Accepted: 03/30/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Powdery mildew caused by the fungus Erysiphe necator is a major grape disease worldwide. It attacks foliage and berries and reduces yield and wine quality. Fungicides are mainly used for combating the disease. Fungicide resistance and the global requisite to reduce pesticide deployment encourage the use of environment-friendly alternatives for disease management. Our field experiments showed that the foliar application of the potassium phosphate fertilizer Top-KP+ (1-50-33 NPK) reduced disease incidence on leaves and clusters by 15-65% and severity by 75-90%, compared to untreated vines. Top-KP+ mixed with Nanovatz (containing the micronutrients boron (B) and zinc (Zn)) or with TruPhos Platinum (a mixture containing N, P2O5, K2O, Zn, B, Mg, Fe, Mn, Cu, Mo, and CO) further reduced disease incidence by 30-90% and disease severity by 85-95%. These fertilizers were as effective as the fungicide tebuconazole. Tank mixtures of fertilizers and tebuconazole further enhanced control efficacy in the vineyards. The modes of action of fertilizers in disease control were elucidated via tests with grape seedlings, microscopy, and berry metabolomics. Fertilizers applied preventively to the foliage of grape seedlings inhibited powdery mildew development. Application onto existing mildew colonies plasmolyzed mycelia and conidia and arrested the development of the disease. Berries treated with fertilizers or with a fungicide showed a significant increase in anti-fungal and antioxidant metabolites. Twenty-two metabolites, including non-protein amino acids and carbohydrates, known for their anti-fungal and bioactive effects, were significantly upregulated in grapes treated with fertilizers as compared to grapes treated with a fungicide, suggesting possible indirect activity against the pathogen. Esters and organic acids that contribute to wine quality were also upregulated. We conclude that integrating macro and micronutrients in spray programs in commercial vineyards shall control powdery mildew, reduce fungicide deployment, delay the buildup of fungicide resistance, and may improve wine quality.
