BACKGROUND Tomato is an important food item and a cocktail of phytonutrients. In the current study, metabolites from a non‐pathogenic fungal species Penicillium oxalicum have been exploited to obtain nutritionally augmented tomato fruits from the plants to better withstand against Alternaria alternata infection. RESULTS Initially, bioactivity‐guided assay and chromatographic analyses identified the bioactive metabolites of P. oxalicum [benzenedicarboxylic acid (BDA) and benzimidazole]. Then, ≥3 times elevated quantities of vitamins and other nutritional elements (protein, fat, fibers, and carbohydrates) were achieved by the foliar application of BDA. The maximum increase (625.81%) was recorded in riboflavin contents; however, thiamine showed the second highest enhancement (542.86%). Plant metabolites analysis revealed that jasmonic acid contents were boosted 121.53% to significantly enhance guaiacyl lignin defenses along with the reduction in coumarin contents. The protein profile analysis explored three most actively responding protein species toward BDA applications, (i) palmitoyltransferase protein Q9FLM3; (ii) serine/threonine‐protein kinase O48814; and (iii) E3 ubiquitin‐protein ligase Q9FJQ8. The O48814 improved plant defenses; whereas, Q9FJQ8 protein was negatively regulating cysteine‐type endopeptidase activity and assisted plant to resist schedule alterations. Tomato cultivar with more active innate metabolism was found to be more responsive toward BDA. Furthermore, the bioactive compounds were enriched by using the two‐step extraction method of ethyl acetate and chloroform, respectively. CONCLUSION Penicillium oxalicum a non‐pathogenic fungal species, produced BDA, induced nutritional contents in tomato and protected it against Alternaria alternata. The current study is the first report on the bioactivity of BDA and benzimidazole concerning the nutritional enhancement and plant defense improvement. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry

“…). According toGerszberg and Hnatuszko- Konka (2017), elucidation of the tolerance mechanism at the biochemical, physiological and morphological level remains one of the greatest challenges of the contemporary plant physiology. Our physiological results showed that wild rice (O. barthii and O. glaberrima) and red rice (O. sativa f. spontanea) do not present tolerance to S. oryzae mite infestation.…”

Cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) is frequently exposed to multiple stresses, including Schizotetranychus oryzae mite infestation. Rice domestication has narrowed the genetic diversity of the species, reducing the stress resistance and leading to a wide susceptibility. Therefore, wild rice species present an alternative to search for this lost variability. Aiming to observe the response of two wild rice species (Oryza barthii and Oryza glaberrima) and two Oryza sativa genotypes (cv. Nipponbare and O. sativa f. spontanea) to S. oryzae infestation, we used agronomic, physiological and molecular analyses. Surprisingly, analyses of leaf damage, histochemistry, chlorophyll concentration and chlorophyll fluorescence showed that the wild species present higher level of leaf damage, increased accumulation of H 2 O 2 and lower photosynthetic capacity when compared to O. sativa genotypes under infested conditions. Infestation did not affect plant height, but decreased tiller number, except in cv. Nipponbare, whose development was not affected. Infestation also caused the death of wild plants during the reproductive stage, unlike O. sativa genotypes, which were able to tolerate stress and produce seeds. While infestation did not affect the weight of 1,000 grains in both O. sativa genotypes, the number of panicles per plant was affected only in O. sativa f. spontanea, and the percentage of full seeds per panicle and seed length were increased only in cv. Nipponbare. Proteomic analysis allowed us to identify 195 differentially abundant proteins when comparing susceptible (O. barthii) and tolerant (O. sativa cv. Nipponbare) genotypes under control and infested conditions. We found that O. barthii has a less abundant antioxidant arsenal. In addition, it is unable to modulate proteins involved with general metabolism and energy production under infested condition. In Nipponbare we found high abundance of detoxification-related proteins, general metabolic processes and energy production, which allows us to suggest that, under infested condition, the primary metabolism is maintained more active compared to O. barthii. Also, Nipponbare presents a greater abundance of defense-related proteins, such as osmotin, ricin B-like lectin, and protease inhibitors of the Bowman Birk trypsin inhibitor family, as well as higher levels of the compatible osmolyte Proline under infested condition. Identification of these differentially abundant proteins can be used as an important biotechnological tool in breeding programs that aim increased tolerance to phytophagous mite infestation.

“…Mitochondria-directed sequences are provided with a signal that enables the passage of proteins into the mitochondria and controls the transfer of polypeptide fragments from the cytoplasm to the mitochondria (Lee et al, 2014;van Wijk et al, 2015). Due to the need for precise regulation of cellular metabolism processes at the single organelle level in the development of transgenic plants with increased resistance to abiotic and biotic stress by genetic engineering methods, use of characterised signal peptide sequences for targeting transit of proteins to the desirable cellular compartments seems to be the most promising solution (Gerszberg et al, 2017).…”

Recently we have showed that the expression of the mammalian CYP11A1 cDNA in plants confers their resistance to abiotic and biotic stresses. To determine the role of heterologous expression of cytochrome P450scc cDNA in resistance to ROS (radical oxygen species) dependent abiotic stresses, the structural changes of mitochondria and peroxisomes were studied under 150 mM NaCl-induced 14-day salinity treatment on juvenile tobacco plants in in vitro culture. Ultrastructural analysis of mesophyll cells of transgenic tobacco leaves constitutively expressing CYP11A1 cDNA was performed. Under NaCl stress, a change in shape from rounded to elon-gated, reduced section area, formation of branched mitochondria, as well as the emergence of triangular and rhomboid cristae, densification of a mitochondrial matrix, increase in density of contrasting membranes and their thickness were observed in non-transgenic plants. Transgenic plants without stress applied had mitochondria with rounded and elongated shape, twice as small as in non-transgenic plants, with a dense matrix and sinuous cristae. Surprisingly, the effect of NaCl led to increase in size of mitochondria by 1.5 times, decomposition of matrix and the emergence in organelles of light zones presumably containing mitochondrial DNA strands. Thus, the structural organisation of transgenic plant mitochondria under salinity treatment was comparable to that of non-transgenic plants under native conditions. It was also noted that the transgenic plant peroxisomes differed in non-transgenic tobacco both in normal condition and under the action of NaCl. The observed differences in ultrastructural organisation of mitochondria not only support our earlier notion about successful incorporation of the mature P450scc into this organelle, but for the first time demonstrate that the mammalian CYP11A1 signal peptide sequence could be efficiently used in the formation of targeted mitochondria protection of plants from salinity-induced damage.
