Shoot the Message, Not the Messenger—Combating Pathogenic Virulence in Plants by Inhibiting Quorum Sensing Mediated Signaling Molecules

Abstract: Immunity, virulence, biofilm formation, and survival in the host environment are regulated by the versatile nature of density dependent microbial cell signaling, also called quorum sensing (QS). The QS molecules can associate with host plant tissues and, at times, cause a change in its gene expression at the downstream level through inter-kingdom cross talking. Progress in controlling QS through fungicide/bactericide in pathogenic microscopic organisms has lead to a rise of antibiotic resistance pathogens. Her… Show more

“…These microbes increase plant immunity against phytopathogens by helping them to obtain more transition metals by producing siderophores (Fones and Preston, 2013). Apart from producing AHLdegrading enzymes these quorum quenching microbes will occupy most of the intercellular space thus leaving very few spaces for later-invading phyto-pathogenic bacteria (Alagarasan et al, 2017). aeruginosa (Kaufmann et al, 2007).…”

“…These microbes increases plant immunity against phytopathogens by helping them to obtain more transition metals by producing siderophores (Fones and Preston, 2013) [19] . Apart from producing AHL-degrading enzymes these QQ microbes will occupy most of the intercellular space thus leaving very few spaces for laterinvading phyto-pathogenic bacteria (Alagarasan et al, 2017) [1] (Table 1). Another way is by Mutagenesis, in A. tumefaciens, production of the AHL lactonase is encoded by attM which in normal condition gets suppressed by the negative transcription factor attJ.…”

“…The disruption of QS signalling, also called 'quorum quenching' (QQ), has been described in bacteria, fungi, plants, animals, etc. [5][6][7][8] . The use of endophytic bacteria living inside plant tissues capable of naturally degrading AHL produced by pathogens has been considered as a suitable approach to interfere with infection 9 .…”
