Following the recognition of pathogen-encoded effectors, plant TIR-NB-LRR immune receptors induce defense signaling by a largely unknown mechanism. We identify a novel and conserved role for the SQUAMOSA PROMOTER BINDING PROTEIN (SBP)-domain transcription factor SPL6 in enabling the activation of the defense transcriptome following its association with a nuclear-localized immune receptor. During an active immune response, the Nicotiana TIR-NB-LRR N immune receptor associates with NbSPL6 within distinct nuclear compartments. NbSPL6 is essential for the N-mediated resistance to Tobacco mosaic virus. Similarly, the presumed Arabidopsis ortholog AtSPL6 is required for the resistance mediated by the TIR-NB-LRR RPS4 against Pseudomonas syringae carrying the avrRps4 effector. Transcriptome analysis indicates that AtSPL6 positively regulates a subset of defense genes. A pathogen-activated nuclear-localized TIR-NB-LRR like N can therefore regulate defense genes through SPL6 in a mechanism analogous to the induction of MHC genes by mammalian immune receptors like CIITA and NLRC5. Pathogen infection causes significant economic loss of crops worldwide. To fend off pathogens, plants use the Nucleotide-Binding domain and Leucine Rich Repeat (NB-LRR) class of immune receptors. Although we have some insight into how plant NB-LRRs recognizes pathogens, we know little about NB-LRR spatial distribution and dynamics during the immune response. Some plant NB-LRRs are present in the nuclear compartment of the cell suggesting that they may directly control defense gene expression. The tobacco N immune receptor that provides immunity against Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) infection is present in the nucleus and associates with the SQUAMOSA PROMOTER BINDING PROTEIN-LIKE 6 (SPL6) transcription factor. This association is detected only when the TMV effector, p50, is present in the cell. This suggests that N associates with SPL6 only during an active defense response. SPL6 function is required for defense against TMV. SPL6 from Arabidopsis functions in resistance against the bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae expressing the AvrRps4 effector and positively modulates defense gene expression. These findings define a novel conserved function for SPL6 transcription factor from different plants species in defense against pathogens. This is the first evidence for the function of SPL-type transcription factors in defense.
