    Abstract Main conclusion: A cytochrome P450 and a 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase genes responsible, respectively, for the biosyntheses of canonical and non-canonical strigolactones in Lotus japonicus were identified by transcriptome profiling and mutant screening. Strigolactones (SLs) are a group of apocarotenoids with diverse structures that act as phytohormones and rhizosphere signals. The model legume Lotus japonicus produces both canonical and non-canonical SLs, 5-deoxystrigol (5DS) and lotuslactone (LL), respectively, through oxidation of a common intermediate carlactone by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme MAX1. However, the pathways downstream of MAX1 and the branching point in the biosyntheses of 5DS and LL have not been elucidated. Here, we identified a CYP and a 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase (2OGD) genes responsible, respectively, for the formation of Lotus SLs by transcriptome profiling using RNA-seq and screening of SL-deficient mutants from the Lotus retrotransposon 1 (LORE1) insertion mutant resource. The CYP and 2OGD genes were named DSD and LLD, respectively, after 5DS or LL defective phenotype of the mutants. The involvements of the genes in Lotus SL biosyntheses were confirmed by restoration of the mutant phenotype using Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated transformation to generate transgenic roots expressing the coding sequence. The transcript levels of DSD and LLD in roots as well as the levels of 5DS and LL in root exudates were reduced by phosphate fertilization and gibberellin treatment. This study can provide the opportunity to investigate how and why plants produce the two classes of SLs.

    Abstract Tanaka, Hashimoto et al., investigate the effect of two phytohormones, strigolactone and jasmonate on the growth and the sporulation of the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Rhizophagus clarus. Their results show that inoculation of asymbiotically-generated spores promote the growth of host plants and shed light on hormonal control of the fungal life cycle.

    Abstract Most plants interact with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, which enhance disease resistance in the host plant. Because the effects of resistance against bacterial pathogens are poorly understood, we investigated the effects of mycorrhizal colonization on virulent and avirulent pathogens using phytopathological and molecular biology techniques. Tomato plants colonized by Gigaspora margarita acquired resistance not only against the fungal pathogen, Botrytis cinerea, but also against a virulent bacterial pathogen, Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 (Pst). In G. margarita-colonized tomato, salicylic acid (SA)- and jasmonic acid (JA)-related defense genes were expressed more rapidly and strongly compared to those in the control plants when challenged by Pst, indicating that the plant immunity system was primed by mycorrhizal colonization. Gene expression analysis indicated that primed tomato plants responded to the avirulent pathogen, Pseudomonas syringae pv. oryzae, more rapidly and strongly compared to the control plant, where the effect on the JA-mediated signals was stronger than in the case with Pst. We found that the resistance induced by mycorrhizal colonization was effective against both fungal and bacterial pathogens including virulent and avirulent pathogens. Moreover, the activation of both SA- and JA-mediated signaling pathways can be enhanced in the primed plant by mycorrhizal colonization.

    Abstract Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis is a mutually beneficial interaction between fungi and land plants and promotes global phosphate cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. AM fungi are recognised as obligate symbionts that require root colonisation to complete a life cycle involving the production of propagules, asexual spores. Recently, it has been shown that Rhizophagus irregularis can produce infection-competent secondary spores asymbiotically by adding a fatty acid, palmitoleic acid. Furthermore, asymbiotic growth can be supported using myristate as a carbon and energy source for their asymbiotic growth to increase fungal biomass. However, the spore production and the ability of these spores to colonise host roots were still limited compared to the co-culture of the fungus with plant roots. Here we show that a combination of two plant hormones, strigolactone and jasmonate, induces the production of a large number of infection-competent spores in asymbiotic cultures of Rhizophagus clarus HR1 in the presence of myristate and organic nitrogen. Inoculation of asymbiotically-generated spores promoted the growth of host plants, as observed for spores produced by symbiotic culture system. Our findings provide a foundation for the elucidation of hormonal control of the fungal life cycle and the development of inoculum production schemes.

    Abstract Arbuscular mycorrhizae formed between more than 80% of land plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi represent the most widespread symbiosis on the earth. AM fungi facilitate the uptake of soil nutrients, especially phosphate, by plants, and in return obtain carbohydrates from hosts. Apocarotenoids, oxidative cleavage products of carotenoids, have been found to play a critical role in the establishment of AM symbiosis. Strigolactones previously isolated as seed-germination stimulants for root parasitic weeds act as a chemical signal for AM fungi during presymbiotic stages. Stimulation of carotenoid metabolism, leading to massive accumulation of mycorradicin and cyclohexenone derivatives, occurs during root colonization by AM fungi. This review highlights research into the chemical identification of arbuscular mycorrhiza-related apocarotenoids and their role in the regulation and establishment of AM symbiosis conducted in the past 10 years.

    Abstract Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, forming symbiotic associations with land plants, are obligate symbionts that cannot complete their natural life cycle without a host. The fatty acid auxotrophy of AM fungi is supported by recent studies showing that lipids synthesized by the host plants are transferred to the fungi, and that the latter lack genes encoding cytosolic fatty acid synthases. Therefore, to establish an asymbiotic cultivation system for AM fungi, we tried to identify the fatty acids that could promote biomass production. To determine whether AM fungi can grow on medium supplied with fatty acids or lipids under asymbiotic conditions, we tested eight saturated or unsaturated fatty acids (C12 to C18) and two β-monoacylglycerols. Only myristate (C14:0) led to an increase in the biomass of
