| Abstract | The first step of Agrobacterium tumefaciens/plant interaction corresponds to the activation of a transduction pathway of the bacterium by plant exudate. Phenolic compounds rapidly secreted by wounded plant cells induce the expression of bacterial virulence (vir) genes; however, little is known about their biosynthesis in plant. Here we show that inoculation of an Agrobacterium tumefaciens virulent strain on orthodiphenol-O-methyltransferases-suppressed tobacco plants leads to significantly smaller tumors compared to control plants. These transgenic plants are inhibited for caffeic acid O-methyltransferase class I or II (OMT; EC 2.1.1.6) and/or caffeoyl-coenzyme A O-methyltransferase (CCoAOMT; EC 2.1.1.104) that are involved in monolignol biosynthesis. The significant decrease of tumor size could be suppressed by the pre-activation of bacterial virulence, before inoculation, using acetosyringone a known vir inducer. Total soluble phenolic amounts and cell wall composition analyzed by FT-IR analysis did not show significant differences between transgenic and control plants. The potential of phenolic extracts from control and OMT-suppressed plants to induce virulence was evaluated using an Agrobacterium tumefaciens reporter strain carrying a vir::LacZ gene fusion plasmid. Lower vir-inducing activities were recorded for plants that show inhibition to caffeic acid O-methyltransferase activity. HPLC analysis confirmed that the levels of several phenolic compounds were differently affected by wounding and/or by bacterial inoculation. Statistical correlations were established between tumor sizes, vir-inducing activities, O-methyltransferases proteins accumulations and the levels of various soluble phenolic compounds such as acetosyringone. These results demonstrate the role of the O-methyltransferases of the phenylpropanoid pathway in the early production of soluble Agrobacterium tumefaciens vir inducers. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
