Abstract
Abstract Expression profiles of ten genes commonly up-regulated during plant defense against microbial pathogens were compared temporally during compatible and incompatible interactions with first-instar Hessian fly larvae, in two wheat lines carrying different resistance genes. Quantitative real-time PCR revealed that while a lipoxygenase gene (WCI-2) was strongly up-regulated during the incompatible interactions, genes encoding β-1,3 endoglucanase (GNS) and an integral membrane protein (WIR1) were moderately responsive. Genes for thionin-like protein (WCI-3), PR-17-like protein (WCI-5), MAP kinase (WCK-1), phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), pathogenesis-related protein-1 (PR-1), receptor-like kinase (LRK10) and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) were minimally responsive. The application of signaling molecules, salicylic acid (SA), methyl jasmonate (MJ) and abscisic acid (ABA), to insect-free plants demonstrated association of these genes with specific defense-response pathways. SA-induced up-regulation of a gene related to lipoxygenases that are involved in jasmonic acid (JA)-biosynthesis is suggestive of positive cross-talk between SA- and JA-mediated signaling pathways. Data suggest that alternative mechanisms may be involved since few of these classical defense-response genes are significantly up-regulated during incompatible interactions between wheat and Hessian fly.
