Transgenic wheat expressing Thinopyrum intermedium MYB transcription factor TiMYB2R-1 shows enhanced resistance to the take-all disease

Abstract: The disease take-all, caused by the fungus Gaeumannomyces graminis, is one of the most destructive root diseases of wheat worldwide. Breeding resistant cultivars is an effective way to protect wheat from take-all. However, little progress has been made in improving the disease resistance level in commercial wheat cultivars. MYB transcription factors play important roles in plant responses to environmental stresses. In this study, an R2R3-MYB gene in Thinopyrum intermedium, TiMYB2R-1, was cloned and characteriz… Show more

“…Furthermore, MAPK cascades are hypothesized to direct the expression of WRKY transcription factors, which are important mediators of plant defence responses, and are also exclusively in PATs tri6Δ (Table ; Eulgem, ; Ross et al ., ). Similarly, transcription factors belonging to the Myb family, which are known to be involved in defence responses to fungal pathogens, are exclusive to PATs tri6Δ (Table ; Liu et al ., ). These results suggest that mutants varying in pathogenicity and inducing the priming response differentially (Fig.…”

“…For instance, as already mentioned, overexpression of TaPIMP1 in transgenic wheats was shown to be involved in providing enhanced resistance against B. sorokiniana . Similarly, the TFs TabHLH060 and TaLHY (α1R MYB TF) were both shown to be upregulated due to infection by Puccinia striiformis that causes stripe rust (Wang et al ., ; Zhang et al ., ), and TiMYB2R , a Thinopyrum intermedium MYB TF was shown to provide enhanced resistance against take‐all disease caused by Gaeumannomyces graminis (Liu et al ., ); the take‐all disease affects the roots of cereals and is an important disease in winter wheat in western Europe. Therefore, it may be desirable to undertake further studies to explore fully the occurrence of specific TFs other than TaPIMP1 that may be involved in spot blotch resistance.…”

“…Overexpression of TiERF1 enhances resistance to sharp eyespot in transgenic wheat (Chen et al 2008b). Transgenic wheat expressing Thinopyrum intermedium MYB transcription factor gene TiMYB2R-1 showed enhanced resistance to the take-all disease (Liu et al 2013). Moreover, TaNAC21/22, a novel NAC transcription factor from the NAM subfamily of wheat, negatively regulates resistance of wheat to stripe rust by interacting with tae-miR164 (Feng et al 2014); TaCLP1 gene encoding a putative plantacyanin protein from wheat is the target gene of tae-miR408, and plays an important role in regulating tolerance of host plants to high-salinity, heavy cupric stress and stripe rust (Feng et al 2013).…”
