Diverse Sorghum bicolor accessions show marked variation in growth and transcriptional responses to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

Abstract: Sorghum is an important crop grown worldwide for feed and fibre. Like most plants, it has the capacity to benefit from symbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, and its diverse genotypes likely vary in their responses. Currently, the genetic basis of mycorrhiza-responsiveness is largely unknown. Here, we investigated transcriptional and physiological responses of sorghum accessions, founders of a bioenergy nested association mapping panel, for their responses to four species of AM fungi.Transcriptome c… Show more

“…AMF has previously been identified across cereal varieties (Hetrick, Wilson, & Cox, 1992;Lehnert et al, 2018;Watts-Williams et al, 2019). Such genotypic differences in growth resulting from AMF symbioses are likely to be linked not only to the receptivity to fungal colonization, but also to the physiological function of the AMF associations, particularly the degree to which the fungal symbionts represent a carbon sink (Walder et al, 2012)…”

“…Differences in host efficiency to acquire N and P from AM fungi could be one of them. Alternatively, AM fungi induce plant defense (Güimil et al ., 2005; Campos-Soriano et al ., 2012; Watts-Williams et al ., 2019) and trade-off between plant growth and defense are known (reviewed in Karasov et al ., 2017). Differences in level of host defense induction by AM fungi might explain difference in MGR.…”

“…However, there is host and symbiont genetic variability for plant growth stimulation by AM fungi in controlled conditions. For example, mycorrhizal growth response (MGR) can be either positive or negative in wheat (Hetrick & Wilson, 1992; Xavier & Germida, 1998; Lehnert et al ., 2018) and sorghum (Watts-Williams et al ., 2019). Very little is known about the genetic determinants that control MGR.…”
