Plant Parasitism and Resistance

Plants are exposed to a vast array of pathogens. The interaction between them may be classified in compatible and incompatible. Polyamines (PAs) are involved in defense responses, as well as salicylic acid (SA), gentisic acid (GA) and nitric oxide (NO), which can increase the content of reactive oxygen species (ROS), creating a harsh environment to the pathogen. ROS can also damage the host cell and they can be controlled by ascorbate and glutathione. Among phytopathogens, one of the major threats to tomato crops is tomato mottle mosaic virus (ToMMV). Resistance against this virus probably involves the Tm-22 gene. This work aimed to analyze signaling and antioxidant molecules in the defense response against ToMMV in Solanum pimpinellifolium and in S. lycopersicum 'VFNT'. In S. pimpinellifolium plants inoculated with ToMMV, an increase in NO, SA, GA, ascorbate and oxidized glutathione and a decrease in the content of PAs were observed. Characteristic symptoms of diseased plants and high absorbance values in PTA-ELISA indicated a compatible interaction. In VFNT-inoculated plants, less significant differences were noticed. Symptoms and viral concentration were not detected, indicating an incompatible interaction, possibly associated with the effector-triggered immunity (ETI) response.
