ABSTRACT
Brown spot disease (BSD) of rice (Oryza sativa L.) caused by Bipolaris oryzae is one of the major and neglected fungal diseases worldwide affecting rice production. Despite its significance, very limited knowledge on genetics and genomics of rice in response to B. oryzae available. Our study firstly identified moderately resistant (Gitesh) and susceptible (Shahsarang) North-East Indian rice cultivars in response to a native Bipolaris oryzae isolate BO1. Secondly, a systematic comparative RNA seq was performed for both cultivars at four different time points viz. 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours post infestation (hpi). Differential gene expression analysis revealed the importance of early response to the pathogen in suppressing disease progression. The pathogen negatively regulates the expression of photosynthetic-related genes at early stages in both cultivars. Of the cell wall modification enzymes, cellulose synthase and callose synthase are important for signal transduction and defense. Cell wall receptors OsLYP6, OsWAK80 might positively and OsWAK25 negatively regulate disease resistance. Jasmonic acid and/or abscisic acid signaling pathways are presumably involved in disease resistance, whereas salicylic acid pathway, and an ethylene response gene OsEBP-89 in promoting disease. Surprisingly, pathogenesis-related proteins showed no antimicrobial impact on the pathogen. Additionally, transcription factors OsWRKY62 and OsWRKY45 together might negatively regulate resistance to the pathogen. Taken together, our study has identified and provide key regulatory genes involved in response to B. oryzae which serve as potential resources for functional genetic analysis to develop genetic tolerance to BSD of rice.
