Definitions
- the present invention relates to a compound or a combination of compounds which can be used as anti-fungal agents directed against plant pathogenic basidiomycete fungi, and especially for inhibiting the virulence of com smut fungus Ustilago maydis and related smut fungi, and of rust fungus Uromyces fabae and related rust fungi, as well as compositions comprising at least one of those compounds and/or agriculturally acceptable salts thereof as agriculturally active ingredients.
- Fungicides are compounds of natural or synthetic origin, which act to protect and cure plants against damage caused by agriculturally relevant fungi. Generally, no single fungicide is useful in all situations. Consequently, research is ongoing to produce fungicides that may have better performance, are easier to use, and cost- effective.
- the basidiomycete fungus Ustilago maydis is a biotrophic fungal pathogen that causes smut disease in its host plant maize, a disease of considerable relevance in agriculture.
- the smut fungus U. maydis is an important pathogen of corn (Maize, Zea mays). Primary disease symptoms are plant tumors in which fungal hyphae differentiate into spores. U. maydis is a biotrophic pathogen requiring living plant tissue for proliferation. In its dikaryotic form U. maydis develops appressoria that penetrate the plant cuticle and cell wall. Invading hyphae become encased by the plant plasma membrane resulting in an extended interaction zone. Plant responses elicited at this stage by fungal MAMPs (microbe associated molecular patterns) are actively suppressed by a cocktail of mostly novel secreted effectors.
- Uromyces fabae (U. vicia-fabae) attacks several important crop species such as broad bean (Vicia faba), pea, and lentil, as well as more than 50 other Vicia species, and about 20 Lathyrus species. However, it is most commonly referred to as rust of faba bean where yield losses of up to 50% have been reported. The pathogen has served as a model organism for almost half a century.
- WO 2018/187553 A1 discloses oxadiazole compounds bearing pyrazolopyridine or condensed pyrimidinone heterocycles. These compounds can be used as fungicides to treat plant diseases caused by fungal plant pathogens and bacteria.

- the present invention provides the method of treating, preventing, inhibiting, or eliminating the virulence of one or more plant pathogenic basidiomycete fungi in a plant or a plant material as defined above, wherein the one or more plant pathogenic basidiomycete fungi are selected from the group consisting of smut fungi and rust fungi, wherein the smut fungi are Ustilago maydis, Ustilago esculenta, Ustilago trichophora, Ustilago tritici, Sporisorium reilianum f.sp. zeae, Sporisorium reilianum f.sp. reilianum, Sporisorium scitamineum, Ustilago hordei, or wherein the rust fungi is Uromyces fabae.
- the basidiomycete fungus Ustilago maydis is a biotrophic fungal pathogen that causes smut disease in its host plant maize, a disease of considerable relevance in agriculture.
- U. maydis secretes a cocktail of novel effector proteins which suppress plant defense responses and manipulate the physiology of the host to support fungal growth and nutrition acquisition.
- Such effector proteins function either in the apoplast, i.e. a compartment between fungal hyphae and surrounding plant plasma membrane or are taken up by plant cells and function inside defined plant cell compartments. The mechanism how such effectors are translocated to the host is unknown.
- Pep1 was previously published as an apoplastic inhibitor of maize peroxidase (Hemetsberger et al., The Ustilago maydis effector Pep1 suppresses plant immunity by inhibition of host peroxidase activity. PLoS Pathog. 2012, 8, e1002684). Individual mutants were still able to penetrate the epidermis, but become arrested in the epidermal cell layer and did not manage to suppress plant defense responses.
- the complex was considered as an interesting new fungicide target.
- the compounds of the COMAS library (http://comas.mpi-dortmund.mpg.de/) were tested for their activity on yeast viability using an engineered NL73 strain, in which viability depends on formation of a stable Stp1 , Stp3 and Stp4 complex and is assessed with the Alamar Blue viability assay.
- 10 compounds from 10 different chemical classes showed activity in the nanomolar or low micromolar range (listed in Table 4).
- imidazopyridines like 1-B, showed nanomolar potency in the Alamar Blue assay with NL73 (Table 5). Moreover, three imidazopyridines compounds (1-B, 2-B, 6-B) were able to inhibit virulence of U. maydis with a concentration dependent inhibitory effect ( Figures 2A-2C). Moreover, five imidazopyridines compounds (1-B, 2-B, 3-B, 5-B, and 6-B) were able to inhibit pustule formation of U. fabae at 1 mM ( Figure 3), and two of them also at 0.5 mM final concentration in the inoculum ( Figure 4).
- compound 1-C showed strong inhibitory activity on U. maydis virulence ( Figure 5), and on U. fabae virulence ( Figure 6).
- the inventors showed that the Stp complex members Stp1 - Stp6 and Pep1 are expressed in different smut fungi (Example 7), suggesting that the Stp complex is also present in others basidiomycete fungi, so that the inventive compounds are able to inhibit virulence also of these other basidiomycete fungi relying on the Stp complex for plant colonization.

- the present invention provides a compound for use or a combination of compounds for use in inhibiting virulence of one or more plant pathogenic basidiomycete fungi, wherein the compound(s) is/are selected from the general formula (I) - (III) which are defined as described above, and wherein the one or more plant pathogenic basidiomycete fungi are selected from the group consisting of smut fungi and rust fungi.
- basidiomycota informally, basidiomycetes
- Basidiomycota is a large group, comprising about 32,000 known species. Morphologically, ecologically, and taxonomically this is a very diverse group, but its members share the feature that their sexual spores are exospores, formed on a basidium (and are therefore called basidiospores).
- Basidiomycota includes the plant pathogens that cause smut and rust diseases, ectomycorrhizal species which are of key significance to forest ecosystems, saprotrophic species that can decay the lignin (‘white-rot fungi’) as well the cellulose of plant litter, and the most noticeable and frequently encountered mushroom fungi.
- the “smut fungi” represent the largest known group of plant pathogens following rusts, with more than 1 ,500 known species. Many smut fungi infect members of the Poaceae, which includes economically important cereal crops such as maize, wheat, barley, sorghum, and sugarcane. Smut fungi are characterized by their ability to produce massive amounts of black or dark brown teliospores. These cells are typically produced in the host’s floral organs, directly affecting reproduction in infected plants. An exception with regard to infection style is Ustilago maydis, which causes common smut in maize.
- the smut fungi were traditionally divided into the phragmobasidiate Ustilaginaceae and the holobasidiate Tilletiaceae families. So far about 1 ,650 species of smut fungi were recognized, which is believed to only represent one third of all basidiomycetous smut fungi. These species within basidiomycota were found across two subphyla, four classes, eight orders, 26 families, and 93 genera.
- the classification system in use today applies classical methods of taxonomic classification relying on morphological characteristics of teliospores and basidiospores but has been augmented by molecular techniques, including DNA and, especially, comparative genome analyses.
- rust fungi form the order of the Pucciniales representing one of the largest fungal orders (Lorrain et al. 2019, Advances in understanding obligate biotrophy in rust fungi, New Phytologist 222: 1190-1206) with > 8000 species already described. These interesting parasites have the ability to infect a wide variety of host plants, from fems to monocots and gymnosperms to angiosperms, which suggests an ancestral adaptation to the biotrophic lifestyle. Worldwide, rust fungi are considered among the most serious threats to both agricultural crops (e.g. wheat (Triticum aestivum), soybean (Glycine max) or coffee), and tree species used for wood production and bioenergy (e.g.

- stp1 gene ID: 23563214, UMAG_02475)
- stp3 gene ID: 23561938, UMAG_00715
- stp4 gene ID: 23567950, UMAG_12197
- pep1 gene ID: 23562847, UMAG_01987
- the S. cerevisiae strain AH109 harbours the reporter genes ADE2 and HIS3, which encode for two enzymes that are crucial for adenine (Ade) and histidine (His) biosynthesis and thereby enable nutritional selection as a readout for the interaction between proteins.
- SD synthetic defined
- HIS3 high-stringency synthetic defined (SD -Leu -Trp -Ade -His) was used to identify if the complex members interact between them causing expression of ADE2 and HIS3.
- strains were also grown on low-stringency medium (SD -Leu -Trp) to confirm their viability.
- BD-Stp4 showed an activation of the reporter genes and was therefore used exclusively when fused to the AD. Neither BD-Stp1 , BD-Stp3 nor BD-Pep1 showed autoactivation (not shown).
- the S. cerevisiae strain AH109 from Clontech is auxotrophic for tryptophan, leucine, adenine and histidine.
- lacZ is under control of the MEL1 UAS to be used as readout for quantitative [3- galactosidase assays.
- AH109Aabc9 is a derivative of AH 109.
- nine ABC transporter-related genes are deleted by standard methods using PCR product-mediated homologous recombination, making it highly permeable and sensitive for small molecules (Wong, et al., 2017. A yeast two-hybrid system for the screening and characterization of small-molecule inhibitors of protein-protein interactions identifies a novel putative Mdm2-binding site in p53. BMC Biology 15, 108).
- ABC9A behaves like its progenitor strain AH109 with regard to expression and growth after expression of complex member combinations.
- several representative interaction assays for complex members were conducted. In all cases, the results were comparable to those previously observed in AH109 (not shown).
- the resulting test strain NL73 (AD-Stp4/BD-Stp1/myc-Stp3) expresses the Stp1/Stp4/Stp3 subcomplex.
- NL73 carries the following three plasmids: pGBKT7-stp1 : pGBKT7 vector expressing proteins fused to the GAL4 DNA binding domain (DNA-BD).
- pGBKT7 also contains the T7 promoter, a c-Myc epitope tag, and a MCS.
- the vector carries a Kanamycin resistance gene (Kanr) for selection in E. coli and the TRP1 nutritional marker for selection in yeast.
- Kanr Kanamycin resistance gene
- pGAD-stp4 pGADT7 vector expressing proteins fused to a GAL4 activation domain (AD).
- the GAL4 AD fusion contains an N-terminal nuclear localization signal that targets the protein to the yeast nucleus, and a HA Tag, located between the GAL4 AD and the protein of interest.
- the vector carries an ampicillin resistance gene (Ampr) for selection in E. coli and a LEU2 nutritional marker for selection in yeast.
- pYEA-stp3-myc pYEA vector expressing proteins under the control of the phosphoglycerate kinase promoter.
- the vector carries an ampicillin resistance gene (Ampr) for selection in E. coli and an ADE2 nutritional marker for selection in yeast.
- NL70 containing empty vectors was generated (AH109Aabc9 pGAD::LEU2 pGBK::TRP1 pYEA::ADE2).
- 25 pl of compound stock solution were pre-dispensed into black 384-well assay plates (Corning 4513) using Echo520 Nanoliter dispenser (Labcyte). After that, 25 pl of NL73 cell suspension were dispensed into the assay plates using Multidrop Combi (Thermofisher Scientific) giving a final screening concentration of 10 pM.
- One column of the assay plate was filled with 25 pl of NL70 control strain cell suspension as negative control. Plates were sealed with Breathe-Easy sealing membrane (Sigma, Z380059), lidded and incubated in a humid chamber over night at 30°C and 140 rpm in an HT Multitron Pro (Infors).
- the alamar Blue HS Cell Viability reagent (Invitrogen, #A50101 ) was pre-diluted using an equal amount of dVE-H 2 O and 5 pl of diluted Alamar Blue were added to the screening plates using Multidrop Combi. The plates were sealed again and incubated for 4 h at room temperature, unlidded. Fluorescence readout was carried out on a Spectramax Paradigm detection platform (Molecular Devices) at Ex/Em 535nm/595nm for 0.14 s.
- Luminescence readout was determined on a Spectramax Paradigm detection platform for 0.2 s. Dose response data was analysed with Quattro Software Suite.
- the fungal-compound mix is dispersed between the rolled-up leaves and fills the leaf whorl.
- the compounds were applied only at the stage of mixing with the inoculum, which is subsequently diluted with existing apoplastic fluid, during the infection.
- compounds have to reach the Stp complex in biotrophic hyphae from the initial inoculum. This explains that significantly higher concentrations are needed compared to the tests in yeast strain NL73. Since compounds are dissolved in DMSO, the tolerance of U. maydis towards DMSO was tested by adding DMSO to the inoculum at concentrations between 10 and 50% final concentration. Results showed that up to 20% are tolerated in the inoculum without adverse effects on virulence (not shown).
- Symptom scoring was done 12 days post infection (dpi) in case of U. maydis seedling infections. Symptom scoring occurred according to the categories described in Table 2.
- Table 2 Categories of virulence symptoms of U. maydis maize seedling infection (according to Kamper et al., 2006).
- Vicia fabae - Vicia faba system was established by initially obtaining spores as well as broad bean seeds from the Institut fur Phytotechnik at Hohenheim University, Germany. Briefly, Vicia faba plants (Bingenheimer Saatgut Friihe Weiftkeimige, G142) were propagated in soil up to about the 4 leaf stage (2- 3 plants per pot). Plants were transferred to a chamber lined with wet paper. 100 mg U. fabae spores were mixed with 160 mg skimmed milk powder in 200 ml sterile H 2 O. Tween 20 was added to a final concentration of 0.01 % and the mixture was stirred in the dark for 45 min.
- Leaves were sprayed with the suspension on both the upper and lower side and afterwards the entire compartment was fogged with H 2 O before closure and kept in the dark for 20 h. Plants were then gradually allowed to dry and were placed in a growth chamber under a light regime of 16 h light (24°C) and 8 h (20°C) dark until symptoms developed (10-12 days). Plants were tossed and spores were collected on underlying aluminum foil, and aliquots were frozen at -80°C.
- a screening platform based on Stp complex formation was developed using a Saccharomyces cerevisiae 2-hybrid system as described in the methods.
- the stp1 stp3, stp4, and pep1 genes were cloned in order to have each of them expressed with AD or BD fusion proteins.
- pYEA contains an ADE2 nutritional marker allowing the selection on medium lacking adenine.
- the yeast strains expressing AD-Stp4/BD- Stp1/myc-Stp3 or AD-Stp4/BD-Stp1/myc-Pep1 showed full growth on both low (SD -Leu -Trp -Ade) and high (SD -Ade -His -Leu -Trp) stringency plates ( Figure 1B). This demonstrates that the weak interaction between Stp1 and Stp4 is strengthened when either Stp3 or Pep1 are present.
- Precipitated proteins were analyzed by MS and numbers in Table 3 are spectral counts representing the unique peptides of the respective proteins. The presence of spectral counts of Stp3 and Stp1 indicates that these proteins interacted with Stp4. The results showed an interaction between Stp 1 , Stp3 and Stp4 (Table 3), confirming the existence of a stable subcomplex.
- Table 3 Interaction between Stp1 , Stp3 and Stp4 in S. cerevisiae revealed by co- IP/MS.
- Stp 1 , Stp3 and Stp4 in the yeast 2Hybrid-system was monitored for HTS screening of small molecules inhibiting growth and thus, complex formation. Small compounds identified by virtue of inhibiting the three- component complex in S. cerevisiae, would most probably inhibit also biotrophic development of U. maydis.
- the HTS test strain NL73 (AD-Stp4/BD-Stp1/myc-Stp3) expressing the Stp1/Stp4/Stp3 subcomplex, and the control strain NL70 were prepared as described in the methods.
- the growth of NL73 on high stringency medium depends on the interaction of Stp1 , Stp4, and Stp3. Any compound interfering with assembly of the complex should eliminate or reduce growth/viability on high stringency medium.
- NL73 test strain and NL70 control strain were incubated with the compounds as described in the methods, and then tested for viability with the Alamar Blue based viability assay.
- the established assay system was used to screen the compounds of the COMAS library (http://comas.mpi-dortmund.mpg.de/index.php) consisting mostly of screening compounds from ChemDiv and Enamine and also includes compounds with known mode of action as well as proprietary compounds from the Department of Chemical Biology (MPI Dortmund) as well as national and international collaboration partners.
- a primary screening of around 200,000 molecules was carried out using the Alamar Blue viability screening assay. Typically, signal-over-background factors of 10-15 and Z’ of approximatively 0.6 were achieved. Hits were defined as having a residual viability of ⁇ 50% with regard to the DMSO treated control cells. 1700 hits were picked from the compound storage and validated in the screening assay, the toxicity and the confirmatory beta-glo assays with a triplicate measurement at 10 pM. Hits that showed a mean residual viability of ⁇ 40% in both the Alamar Blue and the Beta-Gio assays while displaying not more than 25% toxicity in the respective counter-assays were chosen for further analysis in dose response mode.
- Example 3 Activity of the hit compounds identified in the S. cerevisiae in a maize infection model with U. maydis
- the ten hits from the HTS screen were assessed by applying the compounds at a final concentration of 5 mM in the inoculum of FB1xFB2 (Table 4) using 4-7 plants per assay.
- Retesting of those four compounds for an inhibition of virulence confirmed the results for 1-C (a tetrahydro-cyclopentapyrimidine), 1-A (a pyrazolopyridin-benzenesulfonamide) and 1-B (an imidazopyridine).
- Table 5 Imidazopyridines compounds (Table 5) were then tested for virulence inhibition of U. maydis (Figure 2A) at 1 mM final concentration in the inoculum of Zea Mays. 5-B was unable to inhibit virulence while 3-B only mildly ( Figure 2A, B). The three compounds 1-B, 2-B, and 6-B, able to reduce virulence were next tested at 1 mM, 0.5 mM and 0.1 mM final concentration in the inoculum. In all three cases the inhibitory effect was concentration dependent (Figure 2C).
- the second hit class was tetrahydro-cyclopentapyrimidines, like 1-C, which was found to be active in the nanomolar range with NL73. Structure searching revealed further analogs, which had been inactive in the primary screening. Upon IC50 determination, some analogs showed inhibitory activity on NL73 viability (Table 6 below).
- the third validated hit compound that revealed activity in NL73 was the pyrazolopyridin-benzenesulfonamide 1-A.
- close analogs of 1-A were synthesized in-house as described in the Method section.
- a round of testing revealed that some analogs of 1-A showed appreciable activity in the Alamar Blue assay as shown in Table 8 below.
- Example 7 Alignment of Stp orthologs from eleven sequenced smut fungi.
- the Stp members have, respectively, the following protein IDs in Ustilago maydis 521 , and NCBI Reference Sequence IDs: Stp1 : UMAG_02475, XP_011388756.1 , Stp2: UMAG_10067, XP_011388794.1 ; Stp3: UMAG_00715, XP_011386505.1 ; Stp4: UMAG_12197, XP_011389576.1 ; Stp5: UMAG_04342, XP_011391052.1 ; Stp6: UMAG_01695, XP_011387671 .1 ; Pep1 : UMAG_01987, XP_011387901.1 , and in UHOR: Stp1 : UHOR_12209, CCF47935.1 ; Stp2: UHOR_03606, CCF52300.1 ; Stp3: UHOR_01096, CCF51205.1 ; Stp4:
