摘  要:
Peanut (Arachis hypogea L.) bacterial wilt (BW) is a devastating disease caused by Ralstonia solanacearum that results in severe yield and quality losses. Plant defensins are short cysteine-rich peptides with antimicrobial activity. The role of defensin genes (AhDef) in peanut is unclear. A genome-wide investiga-tion of AhDef genes was undertaken, and 12 identified AhDef genes were classified into two groups con-taining the gamma-thionin domain formed by four disulfide pairs: Cys1-Cys8, Cys2-Cys5, Cys3-Cys6, and Cys4-Cys7. In silico analysis revealed that AhDef genes showed highly conserved architectural features and contained cis-elements associated with phytohormone signaling and defense responses. A highly resistant cultivar, H108 (R) and a susceptible accession, H107 (S) were tested by R. solanacearum inocu-lation. H108 (R) showed fewer symptoms than H107 (S) owing to inhibition of bacterial reproduction and spread in the vascular bundles of roots and stems. In a transcriptomic expression profile, AhDef genes, particularly AhDef1.6 and AhDef2.2, were up-regulated in H108 (R) compared with H107 (S) under R. sola-nacearum infection and phytohormone treatment. Subcellular localization showed that the AhDef1.6 and AhDef2.2 proteins were both expressed specifically on the plasma membrane. Overexpression of protein fusion AhDef2.2-YFP in Nicotiana benthamiana and peanut leaves increased resistance to R. solanacearum, suggesting its role in response to BW infection. AhDef2.2 may be valuable for peanut resistance breeding.(c) 2021 Crop Science Society of China and Institute of Crop Science, CAAS.
