  • effects of the cucumber mosaic virus 2a protein on aphid plant interactions in arabidopsis thaliana
    Molecular Plant Pathology, 2020
    Co-Authors: Sunju Rhee, Lewis G Watt, Ana Cazar Bravo, Alex M Murphy, John P Carr
    Abstract:

    The cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) 2a RNA-dependent RNA polymerase protein has an additional function in Arabidopsis thaliana, which is to stimulate feeding deterrence (Antixenosis) against aphids. Antixenosis is thought to increase the probability that aphids, after acquiring CMV particles from brief probes of an infected plant's epidermal cells, will be discouraged from settling and instead will spread inoculum to neighbouring plants. The amino acid sequences of 2a proteins encoded by a CMV strain that induces Antixenosis in A. thaliana (Fny-CMV) and one that does not (LS-CMV) were compared to identify residues that might determine the triggering of Antixenosis. These data were used to design reassortant viruses comprising Fny-CMV RNAs 1 and 3, and recombinant CMV RNA 2 molecules encoding chimeric 2a proteins containing sequences derived from LS-CMV and Fny-CMV. Antixenosis induction was detected by measuring the mean relative growth rate and fecundity of aphids (Myzus persicae) confined on infected and on mock-inoculated plants. An amino acid sequence determining Antixenosis induction by CMV was found to reside between 2a protein residues 200 and 300. Subsequent mutant analysis delineated this to residue 237. We conjecture that the Fny-CMV 2a protein valine-237 plays some role in 2a protein-induced Antixenosis.

  • qtl mapping of Antixenosis resistance to common cutworm spodoptera litura fabricius in wild soybean glycine soja
    PLOS ONE, 2017
    Co-Authors: Nobuhiko Oki, Masakazu Takahashi, Akito Kaga, Takehiko Shimizu, Yuhi Kono, Motoki Takahashi
    Abstract:

    The common cutworm (CCW; Spodoptera litura Fabricius) is a serious herbivorous insect pest of soybean (Glycine max) in Asia and Oceania. Previously, we identified quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for CCW-antibiosis-resistance, CCW-1 and CCW-2, and Antixenosis-resistance, qRslx1 and qRslx2, in the cultivar ‘Himeshirazu’. The effects of these QTLs are useful in the breeding of CCW-resistant cultivars. In this study, we conducted an Antixenosis bioassay on CCW using recombinant inbred lines derived from a cross between a wild soybean (Glycine soja) and the leading cultivar ‘Fukuyutaka’ to identify CCW-resistance genes in G. soja. The QTL analysis revealed six and four novel Antixenosis-resistance QTLs in 2012 and 2013, respectively. Among them, the QTLs on chromosomes 2 and 7, designated qRslx4 and qRslx3, respectively, were stably detected in both years. qRslx3 exhibited the largest effect in both years, suggesting that qRslx3 can be exploited in the breeding of CCW-resistant soybean. Furthermore, qRslx3 and qRslx4 can be used, along with previously reported QTLs from ‘Himeshirazu’, to enhance the CCW-resistance of soybean cultivars because their chromosomal positions are unique. These new CCW-resistance QTLs from G. soja should play important roles in the breeding of CCW-resistant soybean cultivars.

  • genetic analysis of Antixenosis resistance to the common cutworm spodoptera litura fabricius and its relationship with pubescence characteristics in soybean glycine max l merr
    Breeding Science, 2012
    Co-Authors: Kunihiko Komatsu, Takashi Sayama, Masao Ishimoto, Masakazu Takahashi, Motoki Takahashi
    Abstract:

    The common cutworm (CCW, Spodoptera litura Fabricius) is one of the most serious pests of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.). Previously, two quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for antibiosis resistance to CCW, CCW-1 and CCW-2, were detected in the resistant cultivar Himeshirazu. In this study, we conducted an anti-xenosis bioassay using a recombinant inbred population derived from a cross between a susceptible cultivar Fukuyutaka and Himeshirazu to perform QTL analysis. Two QTLs for Antixenosis resistance, qRslx1 and qRslx2, were identified on Chrs 7 and 12, and the resistant alleles of qRslx1 and qRslx2 were derived from Himeshirazu and Fukuyutaka, respectively. The position of qRslx1 is similar to that of CCW-1. We also analyzed pubescence characteristics because they have been reported to be associated with soybean insect resistance. Two QTLs for pubescence length (on Chrs 7 and 12) and two QTLs for pubescence density (on Chrs 1 and 12) were identified. The pubescence QTLs on Chrs 7 and 12 were located near qRslx1 and qRslx2, respectively. These results suggest that the Antixenosis resistance could be controlled genetically by the identified QTLs and that the pubescence characteristics might contribute to the soybean Antixenosis resistance to CCW.
