Grapevine comparative early transcriptomic profiling suggests that Flavescence dorée phytoplasma represses plant responses induced by vector feeding in susceptible varieties
2019
Background
Flavescence doreeis the most serious
grapevine yellowsdisease in Europe. It is caused by
phytoplasmaswhich are transmitted from grapevine to grapevine by the
leafhopper
Scaphoideus titanus. Differences in
susceptibilityamong grapevine varieties suggest the existence of specific genetic features associated with resistance to the
phytoplasmaand/or possibly with its vector. In this work,
RNA-Seqwas used to compare early transcriptional changes occurring during the three-trophic interaction between the
phytoplasma, its vector and the grapevine, represented by two different cultivars, one very
susceptibleto the disease and the other scarcely
susceptible.
