Zusammenfassung: | (BNYVV) infections induce stunting and leaf curling, as well as root and floral developmental defects and leaf senescence in
. A microarray analysis with probes capable of detecting 1596 candidate microRNAs (miRNAs) was conducted to investigate differentially expressed miRNAs and their targets upon BNYVV infection of
plants. Eight species-specific miRNAs of
were identified. Comprehensive characterization of the
microRNA profile in response to the BNYVV infection revealed that 129 miRNAs were altered, including four species-specific miRNAs. The targets of the differentially expressed miRNAs were predicted accordingly. The expressions of miR164, 160, and 393 were up-regulated by BNYVV infection, and those of their target genes,
,
, and
, were down-regulated.
, which is a target of miR396, was also down-regulated. Further genetic analysis of
by
-induced gene silencing, assay confirmed the involvement of
in the symptom development during BNYVV infection. BNYVV infection also induced the up-regulation of miR168 and miR398. The miR398 was predicted to target
, and silencing of
could enhance plant resistance against viruses, suggesting the activation of primary defense response to BNYVV infection in
. These results provide a global profile of miRNA changes induced by BNYVV infection and enhance our understanding of the mechanisms underlying BNYVV pathogenesis. |
