Suppression of terpenoid synthesis in plants by a virus promotes its mutualism with vectors

Abstract: Vectors often perform better on plants infected with pathogens, and this promotes the spread of pathogens. However, few studies have examined how plant defensive compounds mediate such mutualistic relationships. Although tobacco plants are relatively poor host plants for the whitefly Bemisia tabaci, tobacco's suitability to the whitefly was substantially increased when infected by the begomovirus Tomato yellow leaf curl China virus. The change in suitability was associated with induced terpenoid synthesis in w… Show more

“…Because plants are sessile, many pathogens of plants use the same strategies for their transmission as the agents of vectorborne human diseases (Guiguet et al, 2016) and, for example, change the behavior of their vectors to enhance transmission from infected to healthy plants hosts (Stafford et al, 2011;Ingwell et al, 2012;Rajabaskar et al, 2014), alter the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from the infected host (Mauck et al, 2010), or enhance the nutritional quality of the infected plant for herbivores that serve as their vectors (Fang et al, 2013;Luan et al, 2013;Shi et al, 2014). One of the most intriguing examples is Cucumber mosaic virus: the bouquet of VOCs emitted by infected plants is altered, making the plants more attractive to the aphids that vector this virus, even though the nutritional quality of infected plants is lower (Mauck et al, 2010).…”

“…Pathogens may modulate plant volatile production to influence vector behavior. For instance, volatile terpenoids mediate direct defense against the whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) (Bleeker et al, 2009;Luan et al, 2013). Infection of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) by Tomato yellow leaf curl China virus (TYLCCNV) and its betasatellite complex reduces the synthesis of the sesquiterpene cedrene.…”

“…Tobacco is a relatively poor host for B. tabaci but infection with tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) increased host suitability associated to changes in volatile terpenoid synthesis (Luan et al, 2013). A similar response was observed in tomato, whiteflies preferred settling on TYLCV-infected plants that on healthy ones that have higher emissions of the volatile terpenes β-myrcene, thymene, β-phellandrene, caryophyllene, (+)-4-carene, and α-humulene (Fang et al, 2013).…”
