Abstract
- Pisum sativum symbiotic mutant SGEFix−-2 carries the sym33-3 allele of the gene Sym33, encoding transcription factor PsCYCLOPS/PsIPD3. Previously, strong host cell defence reactions were identified in nodules of this mutant. In the present study, new manifestations of defence reactions were revealed in 28-day-old white nodules in which bacterial release had occurred. These nodules were investigated using histochemical staining of pectin and suberin and by immunogold localisation of three components of pectin: highly methyl-esterified homogalacturonan (HG) recognised by monoclonal antibody JIM7, low methyl-esterified HG recognised by JIM5 and linear (1–4)-β-D-galactan side-chain of rhamnogalacturonan I (RG I) recognised by LM5. In the mutant, but not in the wild-type, cell wall material was deposited around the vacuole in the uninfected cells, in cells containing infection threads and in the infected cells. The deposits around the vacuole were marked with JIM7 and LM5 antibodies but not with JIM5, suggesting that they contain newly formed cell wall material. Deposition was accompanied by suberin accumulation. This is the first report that deposition of cell wall material around the vacuole may be associated with the defence reaction in ineffective nodules. In addition, hypertrophic infection droplets labelled with JIM7 were identified. In the matrix of some infection threads, RG I recognised a pectic gel component. Callose deposits in the cell walls and in the walls of infection threads were occasionally observed. The observations suggest that an important function of transcriptional factor CYCLOPS/IPD3 is the suppression of defence reactions during establishment of the legume-rhizobial symbiosis.
