Integrative mRNA and microRNA Analysis Exploring the Inducing Effect and Mechanism of Diallyl Trisulfide (DATS) on Potato against Late Blight

Potato late blight, caused by <i>Phytophthora infestans</i>, leads to a significant reduction in the yield and value of potato. Biocontrol displays great potential in the suppression of plant diseases. Diallyl trisulfide (DATS) is a well-known natural compound for biocontrol, although th...

description Potato late blight, caused by <i>Phytophthora infestans</i>, leads to a significant reduction in the yield and value of potato. Biocontrol displays great potential in the suppression of plant diseases. Diallyl trisulfide (DATS) is a well-known natural compound for biocontrol, although there is little information about it against potato late blight. In this study, DATS was found to be able to inhibit the hyphae growth of <i>P. infestans</i>, reduce its pathogenicity on detached potato leaves and tubers, and induce the overall resistance of potato tubers. DATS significantly increases catalase (CAT) activity of potato tubers, and it does not affect the levels of peroxidase (POD), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and malondialdehyde (MDA). The transcriptome datasets show that totals of 607 and 60 significantly differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and miRNAs (DEMs) are detected. Twenty-one negatively regulated miRNA-mRNA interaction pairs are observed in the co-expression regulatory network, which are mainly enriched in metabolic pathways, biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, and starch and sucrose metabolism based on the KEGG pathway. Our observations provide new insight into the role of DATS in biocontrol of potato late blight.
