Nitric oxide: an effective weapon of the plant or the pathogen?

Abstract: SUMMARYAn explosion of research in plant nitric oxide (NO) biology during the last two decades has revealed that NO is a key signal involved in plant development, abiotic stress responses and plant immunity. During the course of evolutionary changes, microorganisms parasitizing plants have developed highly effective offensive strategies, in which NO also seems to be implicated. NO production has been demonstrated in several plant pathogens, including fungi, but the origin of NO seems to be as puzzling as in pl… Show more

“…It is true that norB was increased by 44% by N fertilization, but norB codes for a component of cNOR and for qNOR, an enzyme that may relate to environmental NO detoxification rather than to denitrification (Hendriks et al ., ). Nitric oxide production is a defence mechanism not only used by microorganisms, but also by plants, and certain plant pathogenic bacteria detoxify NO using qNOR expression (Arasimowicz‐Jelonek and Floryszak‐Wieczorek, ). Thus, increased abundance of norB may reflect the intensification of antagonisms in N‐fertilized soil more than an increased potential for denitrification.…”

“…Notably, the necrotrophy contact with pelargonium leaf tissue of a susceptible genotype conferred the capacity to trigger a transient NO burst, which helps to promote necrotic death of host cells and favors the disease's advancement. In addition, the reach of high levels of pathogen‐derived NO to plant cells also contributes to hypersensitive cell death, facilitating subsequent tissue colonization (Arasimowicz‐Jelonek & FloryszakWieczorek, ; Turrion‐Gomez & Benito, ). Thus, transient NO bursts in planta induced by the pathogen attack or originating both from pathogen and host plant might accelerate the infection progress, which constitutes an essential element governing the success of a necrotrophic growth.…”

“…In plants, NO regulates developmental transitions such as seed germination1, photomorphogenesis23, flowering45), fruit ripening6 and leaf senescence78. NO is also a key regulatory molecule in the response of plants to environmental stress910. As a free radical, NO is prone to react with free radical oxygen species and also with metals11.…”
