Here we showed that Osa-miR439 acted as anegative regulator in rice immunity against blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae. Osa-miR439 differentiallyresponded to M. oryzae between susceptible and resistant rice accessions. The accumulation ofOsa-miR439 was constitutively more in the susceptible accession than in the resistant one. Transgeniclines overexpressing Osa-miR439a (OX439a) showed higher susceptibility associating with lower inductionof defense-related genes and less hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) accumulation at the infection sites than thecontrol plants. In contrast, transgenic lines expressing a target mimic of Osa-miR439 (MIM439) displayedcompromised susceptibility associating with increased H2O2 accumulation. Furthermore, we found thatthe expression of three predicted target genes was decreased in OX439a but increased in MIM439 incomparison to control plants, and this expression was differential in susceptible and resistant accessionsupon M. oryzae infection, indicating that Osa-miR439a may regulate rice blast resistance via these genes.Our results unveiled the role of Osa-miR439a in rice blast resistance and provided the potentiality toimprove the blast resistance via miRNA.展开更多

The miR exists in two size variants of 21-nt and 24-nt so the natural precursor cannot be employed for the purpose of miR over-expression as the cellular machinery can process both size variants thereby masking the role of PTGS regulation. Hence, we adopted the artificial miR technology to specifically over-express the 21-nt species in the transgenics. During the course of experiments it was observed that the amiR constructs probably interfered with the regeneration of the transformed callus, necessitating protocol modifications. The results indicate the successful over-expression of the 21-nt miR species. These plants can serve as a useful source for the functional dissection of the role played by the 21-nt Osa-miR820 species. They will also be valuable in highlighting the importance for the existence of a dual mode of miR mediated target regulation.展开更多

During plant defense responses, micro RNAs(mi RNAs) play important roles in regulating disease resistance. However, the functions of mi RNAs in the interaction between rice and Xoo remain relatively uncharacterized. In this study, we compared the mi RNA profiles of the BB resistant rice introgression line F329 and its susceptible recurrent parent Huang-Hua-Zhan(HHZ) at multiple time points after inoculation with Xoo. A total of 538 known and 312 novel mi RNAs were identified, among which only 17 and 26 were responsive to Xoo infection in F329 and HHZ, respectively. Compared with the expression levels in HHZ, 37 up-regulated and 53 down-regulated mi RNAs were detected in F329. The predicted target genes for the mi RNAs differentially expressed between F329 and HHZ were revealed to be associated with flavonoid synthesis, the reactive oxygen species regulatory pathway, plant hormone signal transduction, defense responses, and growth and development.Additionally, the patterns of interactions between osa-mi R390-3 p, novel_mi R_104, novel_mi R_238,osa-mi R166 k-5 p, osa-mi R529 b, and osa-mi R167 h-3 p and their target genes were further validated by quantitative real-time PCR. Furthermore, we overexpressed osa-mi R167 h-3 p in transgenic plants and proved that this mi RNA positively regulates the resistance of rice to BB. These results provide novel information regarding the mi RNA-based molecular mechanisms underlying the disease resistance of rice. The data presented herein may be useful for engineering rice BB resistance via mi RNAs.展开更多
