Similar to pathogenic bacteria, rhizobia can inject effector proteins into host cells directly to promote infection via the type III secretion system (T3SS). Nodulation outer protein P (NopP), a specific T3SS effector of rhizobia, plays different roles in the establishment of multiple rhizobia-legume symbiotic systems.Mesorhizobium amorphaeCCNWGS0123 (GS0123), which infectsRobinia pseudoacaciaspecifically, secretes several T3SS effectors, including NopP. Here, we demonstrate that NopP is secreted through T3SS-I of GS0123 during the early stages of infection, and its deficiency decreases nodule nitrogenase activity ofR. pseudoacacianodules. A trafficking protein particle complex subunit 13–like protein (TRAPPC13) has been identified as a NopP target protein inR. pseudoacaciaroots by screening a yeast two-hybrid library. The physical interaction between NopP and TRAPPC13 is verified by bimolecular fluorescence complementation and coimmunoprecipitation assays. In addition, subcellular localization analysis reveals that both NopP and its target, TRAPPC13, are colocalized on the plasma membrane. Compared with GS0123-inoculatedR. pseudoacaciaroots, some genes associated with cell wall remodeling and plant innate immunity down-regulated in ΔnopP-inoculated roots at 36 h postinoculation. The results suggest that NopP inM. amorphaeCCNWGS0123 acts in multiple processes inR. pseudoacaciaduring the early stages of infection, and TRAPPC13 could participate in the process as a NopP target.Copyright © 2021 The Author(s).
