Title: TALE-triggered and iTALE-suppressed Xa1-mediated resistance to bacterial blight is independent of rice transcription factor subunits OsTFIIAγ1 or OsTFIIAγ5. Author: Xu X, Xu Z, Ma W, Haq F, Li Y, Shah SMA, Zhu B, Zhu C, Zou L, Chen G. Journal: J Exp Bot; 2021 Apr 02; 72(8):3249-3262. PubMed ID: 33544818. Abstract: Xa1-mediated resistance to rice bacterial blight, caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), is triggered by transcription activator-like effectors (TALEs) and suppressed by interfering TALEs (iTALEs). TALEs interact with the rice transcription factor OsTFIIAγ1 or OsTFIIAγ5 (Xa5) to activate expression of target resistance and/or susceptibility genes. However, it is not clear whether OsTFIIAγ is involved in TALE-triggered and iTALE-suppressed Xa1-mediated resistance. In this study, genome-edited mutations in OsTFIIAγ5 or OsTFIIAγ1 of Xa1-containing rice 'IRBB1' and Xa1-transgenic plants of xa5-containing rice 'IRBB5' did not impair the activation or suppression of Xa1-mediated resistance. Correspondingly, the expression pattern of Xa1 in mutated OsTFIIAγ5 and OsTFIIAγ1 rice lines and 'IRBB1' rice was similar. In contrast, the expression of OsSWEET11 was repressed in rice lines mutated in OsTFIIAγ5 and OsTFIIAγ1. Bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) and co-immunoprecipitation assays showed that both TALE PthXo1 and iTALE Tal3a interacted with OsTFIIAγ1 and OsTFIIAγ5 in plant nuclei. These results indicated that TALE-triggered and iTALE-suppressed Xa1-mediated resistance to bacterial blight is independent of OsTFIIAγ1 or OsTFIIAγ5 in rice, and suggest that an unknown factor is potentially involved in the interaction of Xa1, TALEs and iTALEs.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
