Plants use resistance (R) proteins to detect pathogen effector proteins and activate their innate immune response against the pathogen. The majority of these proteins contain an NB-ARC (nucleotide-binding adaptor shared by APAF-1, R proteins, and CED-4) domain along with a leucine-rich repeat (LRR), and some also bear a toll interleukin 1 receptor (TIR) domain. In this study, we characterized a gene encoding a TIR-NB-ARC-LRR R protein (VpTNL1) (GenBank accession number KX649890) from wild Chinese grapevine Vitispseudoreticulataaccession “Baihe-35-1”, which was identified previously from a transcriptomic analysis of leaves inoculated with powdery mildew (PM; Erysiphenecator (Schw.)). TheVpTNL1transcript was found to be highly induced inV. pseudoreticulatafollowing inoculation withE. necator, as well as treatment with salicylic acid (SA). Sequence analysis demonstrated that the deduced amino acid sequence contained a TIR domain at the N-terminus, along with an NB-ARC and four LRRs domains within the C-terminus. Constitutive expression ofVpTNL1in Arabidopsis thaliana resulted in either a wild-type or dwarf phenotype. Intriguingly, the phenotypically normal transgenic lines displayed enhanced resistance to Arabidopsis PM,Golovinomycescichoracearum, as well as to the virulent bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000. Similarly, constitutive expression ofVpTNL1in Nicotiana tabacum was found to confer enhanced resistance to tobacco PM,Erysiphe cichoacearumDC. Subsequent isolation of theVpTNL1promoter and deletion analysis indicated that TC-rich repeats and TCA elements likely play an important role in its response toE. necatorand SA treatment, respectively. Taken together, these results indicate thatVpTNL1contributes to PM resistance in grapevine and provide an interesting gene target for the future amelioration of grape via breeding and/or biotechnology.
