Abstract

The devastating sheath blight disease caused by Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn (teleomorph: Thanatephorus cucumeris) causes major yield loss in most rice growing regions of the world. In this study, two moderately tolerant and four susceptible genotypes of rice were selected for R. solani induced proteome analysis using two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Forty five differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified and analyzed by Mass Spectrometry. Based on their functions, these proteins were classified into different groups, viz., photosynthesis, resistance and pathogenesis, stress, cell wall metabolism and cytoskeleton development associated proteins, and hypothetical or uncharacterized proteins. Expression of 14 genes encoding DEPs was analyzed by quantitative PCR which showed consistency in transcripts and genes expression pattern. Furthermore, the expression of 16 other genes involved in diverse biological functions was analyzed. Up-regulation of these genes in the tolerant genotype Pankaj during sheath blight disease suggested efficient genetic regulation of this cultivar under stress. Also, expression analysis of conserved microRNAs (miRNAs) and their target genes revealed important role of miRNAs in post-transcriptional gene regulation during development of rice sheath blight disease. Genome-wide discovery of miRNAs and further characterization of DEPs and genes will help in better understanding of the molecular events during sheath blight disease development in rice.
