          Abstract

          Resumen Desde el punto de vista económico, el mejoramiento genético es una de las mejores opciones para combatir al carbón parcial causado por el hongo Tilletia indica. Las cistatinas son una familia de proteínas inhibidoras de proteasas cuyos patrones de expresión podrían explicar un mecanismo eficaz de resistencia a carbón parcial. Los objetivos fueron evaluar la resistencia/susceptibilidad de líneas de trigo harinero (Triticum aestivum) y cristalino (T. turgidum ssp. durum) a T. indica y determinar los niveles de expresión relativa de genes de cistatinas; así como, determinar la correlación de dicha expresión con la resistencia fenotípica. Se estableció un ensayo con nueve líneas de trigo harinero y nueve líneas de trigo cristalino con diferentes grados de resistencia. Se inocularon 30 espigas por línea con esporidios alantoides y se determinó el porcentaje de infección. Los genes de cistatinas (Wheat Cystatin) WC1, WC3 y WC5 fueron amplificados mediante PCR en tiempo real para cuantificar la expresión normalizada (ΔCt) de cistatinas. Posteriormente se obtuvo el coeficiente de correlación para la expresión normalizada y el porcentaje de infección. Los porcentajes estuvieron dentro de los rangos de 15.85% a 36.78% en trigo harinero y de 0.19% a 54.87% en trigo cristalino. Además, los niveles de expresión normalizada de cistatinas fueron comparativamente mayores en líneas resistentes (p> 0.05). Se presentaron coeficientes de correlación significativos (p< 0.05) de los genes WC3 y WC5 durante todas las etapas de muestreo, destacándose en estado vegetativo (0.969), embuche (0.841) y post-antesis (-0.789).

          Abstract From the economic point of view, genetic improvement is one of the best options to fight karnal bunt caused by Tilletia indica fungus. Cystatin is a family of protease inhibitory proteins whose expression patterns may explain an effective resistance mechanism to karnal bunt. The objectives of this research were to evaluate the resistance/susceptibility of bread wheat lines (Triticum aestivum) and durum (T. turgidum ssp. durum) to T. indica and to determine the relative expression levels of cystatin genes; as well as to determine the correlation of that expression with phenotypic resistance. A trial with 9 lines of wheat flour and 9 lines of durum wheat with different degrees of resistance was established. Thirty spikes per line with allantoic sporidia were inoculated and the percentage of infection determined. The cystatin genes (Wheat Cystatin) WC1, WC3 and WC5 were amplified by real-time PCR to quantify the normalized expression (ΔCt) of cystatin. The correlation coefficient was then obtained for normalized expression and percentage of infection. The percentages of infection were within the range of 15.85% to 36.78% in wheat flour and from 0.19% to 54.87% in durum wheat. Furthermore, normalized levels of cystatin expression were comparatively higher in resistant lines (p> 0.05). Significant correlation coefficients (p< 0.05) of WC3 and WC5 genes during all stages of sampling were shown, highlighting in vegetative (0.969), boot stage (0.841) and post-anthesis (-0.789) stages.

            Jasmonate and ethylene dependent defence gene expression and suppression of fungal virulence factors: two essential mechanisms of Fusarium head blight resistance in wheat?

            Background Fusarium head blight (FHB) caused by Fusarium species like F. graminearum is a devastating disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum) worldwide. Mycotoxins such as deoxynivalenol produced by the fungus affect plant and animal health, and cause significant reductions of grain yield and quality. Resistant varieties are the only effective way to control this disease, but the molecular events leading to FHB resistance are still poorly understood. Transcriptional profiling was conducted for the winter wheat cultivars Dream (moderately resistant) and Lynx (susceptible). The gene expressions at 32 and 72 h after inoculation with Fusarium were used to trace possible defence mechanisms and associated genes. A comparative qPCR was carried out for selected genes to analyse the respective expression patterns in the resistant cultivars Dream and Sumai 3 (Chinese spring wheat). Results Among 2,169 differentially expressed genes, two putative main defence mechanisms were found in the FHB-resistant Dream cultivar. Both are defined base on their specific mode of resistance. A non-specific mechanism was based on several defence genes probably induced by jasmonate and ethylene signalling, including lipid-transfer protein, thionin, defensin and GDSL-like lipase genes. Additionally, defence-related genes encoding jasmonate-regulated proteins were up-regulated in response to FHB. Another mechanism based on the targeted suppression of essential Fusarium virulence factors comprising proteases and mycotoxins was found to be an essential, induced defence of general relevance in wheat. Moreover, similar inductions upon fungal infection were frequently observed among FHB-responsive genes of both mechanisms in the cultivars Dream and Sumai 3. Conclusions Especially ABC transporter, UDP-glucosyltransferase, protease and protease inhibitor genes associated with the defence mechanism against fungal virulence factors are apparently active in different resistant genetic backgrounds, according to reports on other wheat cultivars and barley. This was further supported in our qPCR experiments on seven genes originating from this mechanism which revealed similar activities in the resistant cultivars Dream and Sumai 3. Finally, the combination of early-stage and steady-state induction was associated with resistance, while transcript induction generally occurred later and temporarily in the susceptible cultivars. The respective mechanisms are attractive for advanced studies aiming at new resistance and toxin management strategies.

              Structural and phylogenetic relationships among plant and animal cystatins.

              The plant cystatins or phytocystatins (PhyCys) are cysteine proteinase inhibitors containing the QxVxG motif and have been placed in the cystatin superfamily of proteins. The primary sequences of PhyCys have a high degree of homology with the members of the cystatin family, but they resemble stefins by the absence of disulfide bonds and cysteine residues. A multialignment and a phylogenetic analysis of 63 cystatins, 32 of which are PhyCys, demonstrate that all PhyCys cluster in a major evolutionary tree branch and support the classification of PhyCys as a new cystatin family. The PhyCys also possess a specific consensus sequence [LVI]-[AGT]-[RKE]-[FY]-[AS]-[VI]-x-[EDQV]-[HYFQ] -N placed on the region corresponding to a predictable amino-terminal alpha-helix. This sequence can be used to specifically identify PhyCys on protein data banks and to differentiate them from the other members of the superfamily. Copyright 1998 Academic Press.
