Cucumber (Cucumis sativus) is one of the most widely cultivated vegetable crops in the world, and its yield is often reduced due to the infection ofBotrytis cinerea(B. cinerea), which causes a serious disease. However, few genes involved in the response toB. cinereahave been identified in cucumber. In this study, we identified thatCsWRKY10plays a key role in the cucumber resistance toB. cinereabecause that the overexpression ofCsWRKY10significantly increased the susceptibility toB. cinereain cucumber. After the pathogen infection, the enzyme activities of catalase, superoxide dismutase and peroxidase in transgenic plants were affected, resulting in the decrease in reactive oxygen species (ROS) contents. In addition, the light microscopic images showed that overexpression ofCsWRKY10promoted the spore germination and mycelia elongation ofB. cinereain cucumber. Importantly, afterB. cinereainfection, the contents of jasmonic acid (JA) are decreased, and the expression levels of JA- and salicylic acid- related defence genes significantly changed in transgenic plants. In contrast, overexpression ofCsWRKY10enhanced resistance toCorynespora cassiicolain cucumber. Collectively, this study indicated thatCsWRKY10negatively regulates the resistance of cucumber toB. cinereaby reducing the ROS contents and inhibiting the JA-mediated resistance signalling pathway, but strengthens resistance toCorynespora cassiicola.
