Project Title:Metabolomics in biotic stress: an example from potato powdery scab
Project Type:MS-based non-targeted metabolomics
Project Summary:Powdery scab, caused by the soilborne pathogen Spongospora subterranea, is a widespread and persistent disease affecting potato roots and tubers worldwide. The pathogen produces highly durable resting spores that can survive in soil for decades, complicating crop rotation and soil management strategies. Previous studies from our laboratory employed transcriptomics and proteomics to investigate cultivar-specific responses to infection. We observed that a set of glutathione S-transferase (GST) genes and proteins were consistently upregulated in the resistant cultivar Gladiator, whereas the susceptible cultivar Iwa showed minimal induction. The present study aimed to use untargeted metabolomics to examine root biochemical changes in resistant and susceptible potato cultivars following S. subterranea infection. The results identify clear differences in the metabolite profile of resistant and susceptible potato cultivars and demonstrate that cysteinyl-glycine accumulates only in the resistant potato cultivar during infection, providing further biochemical evidence that glutathione S-transferase-linked detoxification mediates resistance to Spongospora subterranea.
