Soybean mosaic virus에 감수성 품종인 단경콩과 저항성 품종인 팔달콩의 cotyledon에 여러형태로 자극을 처리하였을때 유도되는 isoflavone aglycones(daidzein, genistein)와 이들 배당체들(daidzin, genistin)의 시간별 축적 정도를 조사하였다. UDP-glucose, $MgSO_4$, $HgCl_2$의 처리 및 Botrytis cinerea의 감염에 의하여 두 품종 모두 isoflavone aglycones와 이들 배당체들의 함량이 대조구(water 처리)와 비교하여 증가하였다. 그러나 citrate의 처리에 의해서는 isoflavone aglycones의 함량은 대조구와 큰 차이가 없었으나 isoflavone glucosides의 함량은 크게 증가하였다. UDP-glucose, $MgSO_4$ 및 $HgCl_2$의 처리에 의하여 isoflavone aglycones의 함량은 단경콩보다 팔달콩에서 크게 나타났다. 특히 daidzein의 경우, 단경콩보다 팔달콩에서 현저하게 크게 나타났다. 그러나 Botrytis cinerea의 감염에 의해서 daidzein의 최대 축적 양에는 두 품종 사이에 큰 차이가 없으나 최대 축적 시간은 팔달콩이 단경콩보다 빠르게 나타났다. 그리고 그 배당체인 daidzin과 geinstein의 축적은 단경콩보다 팔달콩에서 모든 자극처리에의해 높게 나타났다. UDP-glucose, $MgSO_4$, 및 $HgCl_2$의 처리에 의한 daidzein과 geinstein이 축적되는 양은 단경콩에서는 초기에는(24hr까지)에는 비슷하나, 48hr이후에는 daidzein의 축적이 geinstein의 함량보다 크게 나타났다. 그러나 팔달콩에서는 대체로 전 기간에서 daidzein의 함량이 geinstein의 함량보다 크게 나타났다. 병원균의 감염에 의해서는 두 품종에서 모두 daidzein의 양이 geinstein의 양보다 크게 나타났다.

추에서 항균 phytoalexin으로 알려진 capsidiol의 생합성을 촉매하는 5-epi-aristolochene hydroxylase는 cytochrome P450 (P450) 억제제인 ancymidol과 ketocornazol에 의해 그 활성이 특이적으로 억제되어, 이 효소가 P450계 효소임을 알 수 있었다. P450 효소가 공통으로 보유하는 염기서열을 지닌 primer를 이용하여 RT-PCR과 cDNA screening을 실시한 결과 고추배양세포에서 elicitor 처리에 의해 강하게 유도되는 cDNA (P450Hy01)를 cloning하였다. 배양세포에 cellulase, arachidonic acid, jasmonic acid, 자외선 등을 처리하여 capsidiol을 생합성하는 량과 P450Hy01 mRNA의 발현정도는 밀접한 유사성이 있었다. P450Hy01의 염기서열은 담배에서 밝혀진 5-epi-aristolochene-1,3-hydroxylase와 98%의 유사성이 있었으며, P450 효소가 공통으로 지니는 heme-binding domain인 FxxGxRxCxG를 보유하고 있었다 이러한 결과는 본 연구에서 cloning된 P450Hy01이 고추의 세포에서 capsidiol의 생합성을 촉매하는 5-epi-aristolochene hydroxylase 효소를 coding 하고 있음을 시사한다.

In order to study disease resistance mechanisms in rice against the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea, we screened fungal elicitor-responsive genes from rice suspension-cultured cells treated with fungal elicitors employing differential hybridization (DH). By DH screening, 31 distinct rice clones were isolated and a majority of them were full-length cDNAs encoding pathogenesisrelated (PR) genes. Sixteen of the 31 genes were upregulated at 4, 8, and 12 h following fungal elicitor treatment. To elucidate the effect of signal molecules and biotic elicitors on the regulation of rice defense genes, we further characterized the transcriptional expression patterns of representative isolated PR genes; OsGlu1, OsGlu2, OsTLP, OsRLK, and OsPR-10, following treatment with fungal elicitor, phytohormones, cycloheximide, and inhibitors of protein phosphorylation. Jasmonic acid (JA) induced transcriptional expression of OsGlu1, OsTLP, and OsRLK, but not of OsGlu2 and OsPR-10 at any of the tested time points. Salicylic acid (SA) and abscisic acid weakly induced the expression of OsTLP and OsRLK. SA showed an antagonistic effect with fungal elicitor and JA. Cycloheximide suppressed all these genes upon elicitor treatment, except for OsGlu2. Staurosporine only induced the expression of OsRLK. Application of calyculin A strongly induced OsRLK expression, but suppressed the expression of OsGlu2. Our study yielded a number of PR genes that play a role in defense mechanisms against the rice blast fungus, as well as contribute towards the elucidation of crosstalk between phytohormones and other modifications during defense signaling.

During the past two decades, China has seen her great progress in plant biotechnology. Since the Chinese market of herb medicine is huge, while the plant resources are shrinking, particular emphasis has been placed in plant tissue and cell cultures of medicinal plants, this includes fast propagation, protoplast isolation and regeneration, cell suspension cultures and large scale fermentation. To optimize culture conditions for producing secondary compounds in vitro, various media, additives and elicitors have been tested. Successful examples of large scale culture for the secondary metabolite biosynthesis are quite limited : Lithospermum ery throrhizon and Arnebia euchroma for shikonin derivatives, Panax ginseng, P. notoginseng, P. quinquefolium for saponins, and a few other medicinal plants. Recent development of genetic transformation systems of plant cells offered a new approach to in vitro production of secondary compounds. Hairy root induction and cultures, by using Ri-plasmid, have been reported from a number of medicinal plant species, such as Artemisia annua that produces little artemisinin in normal cultured cells, and from Glycyrrhiza uralensis. In the coming five years, Chinese scientists will continue their work on large scale cell cultures of a few of selected plant species, including Taxus spp. and A. annua, for the production of secondary metabolites with medicinal interests, one or two groups of scientists will be engaged in molecular cloning of the key enzymes in plant secondary metabolism.

We report an oxidative burst triggered by prostaglandin $A_2(PGA_2)$ in the brown algal kelp Laminaria digitata, constituting the first such discovery in an alga and the second finding of an oxidative burst triggered by a prostaglandin in a living organism. The response is more powerful than the oxidative burst triggered by most other chemical elicitors in Laminaria. Also, it is dose-dependent and cannot be inhibited by diphenylene iodonium, suggesting that another source than NAD(P)H oxidase is operational in the production of reactive oxygen species. Despite the very strong oxidative response, rather few effects at other levels of signal transduction pathways could be identified. $PGA_2$ does not increase lipolysis (free fatty acids) in Laminaria, and only one oxylipin (15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid; 15-HETE) was found to be upregulated in Laminaria. In a subsequent set of experiments in the genome model Ectocarpus siliculosus, none of 5 selected candidate genes, all established participants in various stress responses, showed any significant differences in their expression profiles.

The medicinal plant Panax ginseng (P. ginseng) contains various phytosterols and bioactive triterpene saponins (ginsenosides). Squalene synthase catalyzes the first committed step in ginsenoside biosynthesis. Transgenic plants of P. ginseng were generated by introducing the squalene synthase gene derived from P. ginseng. Adventitious roots of the transgenic ginseng grew best in B5 medium, and 2 g of inoculum secured an optimal growth rate. Two phytohormones, indolebutyric acid and 1-naphtalene acetic acid, increased root growth and decreased ginsenoside production. Treatment with two selected elicitors, chitosan and jasmonic acid, and a precursor of the isoprenoid pathway, mevalonic acid, enhanced ginsenoside production and retarded ginseng growth rate.

The plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium Ochrobactrum lupini KUDC1013 elicited induced systemic resistance (ISR) in tobacco against soft rot disease caused by Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum. We investigated of its factors involved in ISR elicitation. To characterize the ISR determinants, KUDC1013 cell suspension, heat-treated cells, supernatant from a culture medium, crude bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and flagella were tested for their ISR activities. Both LPS and flagella from KUDC1013 were effective in ISR elicitation. Crude cell free supernatant elicited ISR and factors with the highest ISR activity were retained in the n-butanol fraction. Analysis of the ISR-active fraction revealed the metabolites, phenylacetic acid (PAA), 1-hexadecene and linoleic acid (LA), as elicitors of ISR. Treatment of tobacco with these compounds significantly decreased the soft rot disease symptoms. This is the first report on the ISR determinants by plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) KUDC1013 and identifying PAA, 1-hexadecene and LA as ISR-related compounds. This study shows that KUDC1013 has a great potential as biological control agent because of its multiple factors involved in induction of systemic resistance against phytopathogens.

Plants are continually exposed to a variety of potentially pathogenic microbes, and the interactions between plants and pathogenic invaders determine the outcome, disease or disease resistance. To defend themselves, plants have developed a sophisticated immune system. Unlike animals, however, they do not have specialized immune cells and, thus all plant cells appear to have the innate ability to recognize pathogens and turn on an appropriate defense response. Using genetic, genomic and biochemical methods, tremendous advances have been made in understanding how plants recognize pathogens and mount effective defenses. The primary immune response is induced by microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs). MAMP receptors recognize the presence of probable pathogens and evoke defense. In the co-evolution of plant-microbe interactions, pathogens gained the ability to make and deliver effector proteins to suppress MAMP-induced defense responses. In response to effector proteins, plants acquired R-proteins to directly or indirectly monitor the presence of effector proteins and activate an effective defense response. In this review we will describe and discuss the plant immune responses induced by two types of elicitors, PAMPs and effector proteins.
