Journal Article
Arabidopsis tonoplast intrinsic protein and vacuolar H+-adenosinetriphosphatase reflect vacuole dynamics during development of syncytia induced by the beet cyst nematode Heterodera schachtii
2019
Overview
Plant parasitic cyst nematodes induce specific hypermetabolic syncytial nurse cell structures in host roots. A characteristic feature of syncytia is the lack of the central vacuole and the formation of numerous small and larger vesicles. We show that these structures are formed de novo via widening of ER cisternae during the entire development of syncytium, whereas in advanced stages of syncytium development, larger vacuoles are also formed via fusion of vesicles/tubules surrounding organelle-free pre-vacuole regions. Immunogold transmission electron microscopy of syncytia localised the vacuolar markers E subunit of vacuolar H+-adenosinetriphosphatase (V-ATPase) complex and tonoplast intrinsic protein (γ-TIP1;1) mostly in membranes surrounding syncytial vesicles, thus indicating that these structures are vacuoles and that some of them have a lytic character. To study the function of syncytial vacuoles, changes in expression of AtVHA-B1, AtVHA-B2 and AtVHA-B3 (coding for isoforms of subunit B of V-ATPase), and TIP1;1 and TIP1;2 (coding for γ-TIP proteins) genes were analysed. RT-qPCR revealed significant downregulation of AtVHA-B2, TIP1;1 and TIP1;2 at the examined stages of syncytium development compared to uninfected roots. Expression of VHA-B1 and VHA-B3 decreased at 3 dpi but reached the level of control at 7 dpi. These results were confirmed for TIP1;1 by monitoring At-γ-TIP-YFP reporter construct expression. Infection test conducted on tip1;1 mutant plants showed formation of larger syncytia and higher numbers of females in comparison to wild-type plants indicating that reduced levels or lack of TIP1;1 protein promote nematode development.
