Analysis of total metabolites and proteins in Eucalyptus grandis leaves during the infection by Puccinia psidiiThe molecular mechanisms involved in the plant resistance against pathogens is a well-discussed theme in the academy, overall objecting to diminish worldwide plantation yield losses caused by diseases. Many pathogen-host models were proposed and developed prioritizing model plants and fast growing crops with short life cycles. However, long life cycle species need to cope with the attack of bacteria, fungi and virus throughout many years, or at least until its reproduction period, being unable, meanwhile, to escape the attack of these microorganisms through genetic recombination and mutation. Therefore, as an alternative to the usual models, the present work studied a different pair of antagonists: Eucalyptus grandis and Puccinia psidii. Despite the contribution of plant breeding programs, the E. grandis X P. psidii pathosystem is still poorly described in the molecular level, with few studies about processes and molecules that confer resistance to the plants. Thus, in order to better understand the E. grandis X P. psidii relationship, this project aimed to study the proteome and metabolome changes that occur on leaf tissues of resistant and susceptible plants infected by the pathogen, with the aid of the liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry technique. The results show that the resistant plants notice the presence of the pathogen shortly after being infected, producing immunity related proteins such as HSP90, ILITYHIA, LRR Kinase, NB-ARC disease resistance protein. This perception triggers the production of cell wall and oxidative burst proteins, also changing the primary and secondary metabolism. On the other hand, susceptible plants have its metabolism subverted, producing proteins responsible for the cell wall loosening, favoring P. psidii nutrient uptake, growth and spread. Metabolite biomarkers, Immune response biomarker molecules and infection signals triggered by P. psidii on E. grandis are also proposed on this work.
