Journal Article
A non‐JA producing oxophytodienoate reductase functions in salicylic acid‐mediated antagonism with jasmonic acid during pathogen attack
2023
Overview
Peroxisome‐localized oxo‐phytodienoic acid (OPDA) reductases (OPR) are enzymes converting 12‐OPDA into jasmonic acid (JA). However, the biochemical and physiological functions of the cytoplasmic non‐JA producing OPRs remain largely unknown. Here, we generated Mutator‐insertional mutants of the maize OPR2 gene and tested its role in resistance to pathogens with distinct lifestyles. Functional analyses showed that the opr2 mutants were more susceptible to the (hemi)biotrophic pathogens Colletotrichum graminicola and Ustilago maydis, but were more resistant to the necrotrophic fungus Cochliobolus heterostrophus. Hormone profiling revealed that increased susceptibility to C. graminicola was associated with decreased salicylic acid (SA) but increased JA levels. Mutation of the JA‐producing lipoxygenase 10 (LOX10) reversed this phenotype in the opr2 mutant background, corroborating the notion that JA promotes susceptibility to this pathogen. Exogenous SA did not rescue normal resistance levels in opr2 mutants, suggesting that this SA‐inducible gene is the key downstream component of the SA‐mediated defences against C. graminicola. Disease assays of the single and double opr2 and lox10 mutants and the JA‐deficient opr7opr8 mutants showed that OPR2 negatively regulates JA biosynthesis, and that JA is required for resistance against C. heterostrophus. Overall, this study uncovers a novel function of a non‐JA producing OPR as a major negative regulator of JA biosynthesis during pathogen infection, a function that leads to its contrasting contribution to either resistance or susceptibility depending on pathogen lifestyle. ZmOPR2 functions as a key component of salicylic acid‐mediated defences via suppressing jasmonic acid biosynthesis during pathogen infection, leading to its contrasting contribution to either resistance or susceptibility depending on pathogen lifestyle.
