| Résumé: | Copyright © 2022 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. Leucine-rich repeat receptor-like kinases (LRR-RKs), belonging to the largest subfamily of transmembrane receptor-like kinases in plants, are proposed to be involved in pathogen resistance. However, it is currently unknown whether LRR-RKs regulate Nicotiana attenuata resistance to Alternaria alternata, a notorious fungal pathogen causing tobacco brown disease. During transcriptome analysis, we identified a highly induced receptor kinase (NaLRR-RK4) in N. attenuata leaves after A. alternata inoculation. We speculated that this NaLRR-RK4 might be the resistance gene of tobacco to brown spot disease, and if so, what is its function and mechanism of action? Silencing of NaLRR-RK4 via virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) lead to plants highly susceptible to A. alternata, and this result was further confirmed by two stable transformation lines (NaLRR-RK4-RNAi lines) generated by RNA interference technology. The susceptible of NaLRR-RK4-RNAi lines to A. alternata was associated with reduced levels of phytoalexin scopoletin and its key synthesis gene NaF6'H1. Further transcriptome analysis of leaves of WT and NaLRR-RK4-RNAi line after A. alternata inoculation revealed that NaLRR-RK4 regulated NaERF109 and NaDEF19. Silencing NaERF109 or NaDEF19 by VIGS lead to plants more susceptible to A.alternata, demonstrating their role in pathogen resistance. Interestingly, A.alternata-induced expression of NaF6'H1 and NaDEF19 were dramatically reduced in NaERF109-silenced VIGS plants. Taken all together, we identified LRR-RK4 as the first Leucine-rich repeat receptor-like kinases involved in A.alternata resistance in tobacco species, by regulating NaERF109, and subsequently NaDEF19 and NaF6'H1 |
