Description

Phytophthora camphora effector protein SCR323321 and coding gene and application thereof

Technical Field

The invention belongs to the technical field of phytophthora camphora effectors, and particularly relates to phytophthora camphora effector protein SCR323321 and a coding gene and application thereof

Background

Phytophthora camphora (Phytophthora cinnamomi) is one of the most destructive plant pathogenic oomycetes known and is widely distributed worldwide, with a host range approaching 5000 species. Phytophthora camphora is one of soil-borne pathogenic bacteria which seriously harm flowers and forest seedlings worldwide. It is distributed to some extent in the southeast coastal areas of China, including Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian and Taiwan. Not only is widely distributed, but also causes the morbidity and the mortality of certain plants such as camellia, rhododendron, cedar, camphor trees and the like seriously. Foreign research shows that the occurrence of host plant diseases is related to the distribution and growth change of the bacteria in soil. Therefore, after a great deal of research on the density of the bacteria in soil, the bacteria are considered to be seasonally changed in natural soil and related to the change of environmental ecological factors. For example, in the Australian forest region, the density is highest in summer, and the soil temperature and humidity are more suitable during the summer; winter is the least because the soil temperature is below 10 ℃.

The oomycete is taken as a typical semi-living nutritional parasitic plant pathogenic bacterium, and the research on phytophthora in the oomycete is wide at present. Phytophthora has evolved a series of effectors which can be secreted in vitro during long-term interaction with host plants, and these effectors can interact with cell membrane recognition receptor proteins of plant immune response signal pathways or downstream targets of the pathways, interfere with host plant defense functions, promote self-invasion colonization, and cause pathogenicity to plants (Jones and Dangl, 2006). Phytophthora can produce an effector protein, Small cysteine-rich protein (SCR), that induces expression of plant pathogenic genes and programmed cell death. PcF/SCR is considered as another type of toxin capable of causing plant cell death, however, the mechanism of the involvement of the SCR effector protein of Phytophthora camphora in pathogenesis is not clear at present. SCR is considered to be another type of toxin capable of causing plant cell death, however, the mechanism by which SCR effector proteins participate in pathogenesis is not clear at present. Members of the SCR protein family include proteins encoded by polymorphic genes, often distinguished by the abbreviation "SCR" from the number of amino acid residues thereafter, such as SCR70 from phytophthora infestans, SCR74, SCR91, and SCR96 in phytophthora infestans (oromando et al, 2011). Phytophthora camphora has the largest family of SCR proteins reported to date-homologues of 1 PCF, 8 SCR96, 15 SCR99, and 1 SCR 121.

In conclusion, according to the molecular mechanism of the interaction between the plant pathogenic oomycetes and the host, the effector protein capable of effectively inhibiting the plant cell death can be excavated from a plurality of plant pathogenic oomycete effectors, and the functions of inhibiting the plant cell death and toxicity are utilized, so that the method has important significance for establishing the comprehensive control technical strategy of the phytophthora cinnamomi, and has important application value for reducing the plant death rate and eliminating or reducing the influence of the epidemic situation when the plant pathogenic oomycetes outbreak is outbreak.
