Sclerotinia sclerotiorumcauses a devastating disease in oilseed rape (Brassica napus), resulting in major economic losses. Resistance response ofB. napusagainstS. sclerotiorumexhibits a typical quantitative disease resistance (QDR) characteristic, but the molecular determinants of this QDR are largely unknown. In this study, we isolated aB. napusmitogen-activated protein kinase gene,BnaMPK6, and found thatBnaMPK6expression is highly responsive to infection byS. sclerotiorumand treatment with salicylic acid (SA) or jasmonic acid (JA). Moreover, overexpression (OE) ofBnaMPK6significantly enhances resistance toS. sclerotiorum, whereas RNAi inBnaMPK6significantly reduces this resistance. These results showed thatBnaMPK6plays an important role in defense toS. sclerotiorum. Furthermore, expression of defense genes associated with SA-, JA- and ethylene (ET)-mediated signaling was investigated inBnaMPK6-RNAi, WT andBnaMPK6-OE plants afterS. sclerotioruminfection, and consequently, it was indicated that the activation of ET signaling byBnaMPK6may play a role in the defense. Further, four BnaMPK6-encoding homologous loci were mapped in theB. napusgenome. Using the allele analysis and expression analysis on the four loci, we demonstrated that the locusBnaA03.MPK6makes an important contribution to QDR againstS.sclerotiorum. Our data indicated thatBnaMPK6is a previously unknown determinant of QDR againstS. sclerotioruminB. napus.
