Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Sclerospora graminicola is an economically important pathogen of foxtail millet. Colonization of the pathogen in panicles triggers a transformation of florets into leafy structures. Whole genome sequencing of S. graminicola revealed that estimated genome size was approx. 360 Mbp and 16736 genes were predicted from the RNA-seq data. Of a total of 1220 genes encoding putative secreted proteins, including a number of Jacalin-related lectin (JRL) proteins in addition to conserved effector-like proteins. A number of JRLs were induced in early infection phase and seven were detected in apoplastic fluids from infected leaves, suggesting that they play roles as apoplastic effector. In infected panicles, MADS47 expression was significantly increased despite during reproductive phase. On the other hand, some of positive regulator of floral development decreased protein accumulation. It is suggested that these effects trigger a transformation of flowers into leafy structures.
