The transcriptional profiles of 'Tamnara' grapevine (Vitis labruscana L.) to Rhizobium vitis were determined using 12,000 gene oligonucleotide microarray chips constructed with 6,776 unigenes based on the EST sequencing. Among them, 95 clones were up-regulated more than three times and 90 were down-regulated more than 5-times in the R. vitis-inoculated grapevines relative to the control vines. Treatment of salicylic acid showed that 337 clones were upregulated and 52 clones were down regulated in grapevines. Microarray analysis, reverse transcription-polymer chain reaction, and slot blot hybridization analysis revealed that 5, 14, and 64 clones were up-regulated and 10, 12, and 61 clones were down-regulated in wounded, salicylic acid-treated, and R. vitis-inoculated 'Tamnara' grapevine leaves, respectively. The expression patterns of ${\beta}$-1,3-glucanase, proline-rich protein, and lipoxygenase genes of 'Tamnara' moderately resistant to R. vitis were similar to those of resistant 'Concord' and 'Delaware' grapevines. However, chalcone synthase genes in 'Tamnara' grapevines showed similar expression patterns to susceptible grapevines 'Neomuscat' and 'Rizamat'. Further expression studies with various clones for each gene should be conducted to elucidate their roles in resistant responses against pathogens or other stimuli in grapevines. These results could provide better resources for understanding the mechanism of defense responses against crown gall disease and clues for identifying new genes that may play a role in defense against R. vitis in grapevines.

Plants protect themselves from pathogen attacks via several mechanisms, including hypersensitive cell death. Recognition of pathogen attack by the plant resistance gene triggers expression of carboxylesterase genes associated with hypersensitive response. We identified six transcripts of carboxylesterase genes, Vitis flexuosa carboxylesterase 5585 (VfCXE5585), Vf-CXE12827, VfCXE13132, VfCXE17159, VfCXE18231, and VfCXE47674, which showed different expression patterns upon transcriptome analysis of V. flexuosa inoculated with Elsinoe ampelina. The lengths of genes ranged from 1,098 to 1,629 bp, and their encoded proteins consisted of 309 to 335 amino acids. The predicted amino acid sequences showed hydrolase like domains in all six transcripts and contained two conserved motifs, GXSXG of serine hydrolase characteristics and HGGGF related to the carboxylesterase family. The deduced amino acid sequence also contained a potential catalytic triad consisted of serine, aspartic acid and histidine. Of the six transcripts, Vf-CXE12827 showed upregulated expression against E. ampelina at all time points. Three genes (VfCXE5585, VfCXE12827, and VfCXE13132) showed upregulation, while others (VfCXE17159, VfCXE18231, and VfCXE47674) were down regulated in grapevines infected with Botrytis cinerea. All transcripts showed upregulated expression against Rhizobium vitis at early and later time points except VfCXE12827, and were downregulated for up to 48 hours post inoculation (hpi) after upregulation at 1 hpi in response to R. vitis infection. All tested genes showed high and differential expression in response to pathogens, indicating that they all may play a role in defense pathways during pathogen infection in grapevines.

Enhanced disease susceptibility1 (EDS1) is a regulator of basal defense responses required for resistance mediated by TIR-NBS-LRR containing R proteins. We identified three transcripts of EDS1-like genes encompassing diverse/separate expression patterns, based on the transcriptome analysis by Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) of V. flexuosa inoculated with Elsinoe ampelina. These genes were designated VfEDL1 (Vitis flexuosa Enhanced Disease Susceptibility1-like1), VfEDL2 and VfEDL3, and contained 2464, 1719 and 1599 bp, with 1791, 1227 and 1599 bp open reading frames (ORFs), encoding proteins of 596, 408 and 532 amino acids, respectively. The predicted amino acid sequences of all three genes showed the L-family lipase-like domain (class 3 lipase domain), and exhibited a potential lipase catalytic triad, aspartic acid, histidine and serine in the conserved G-X-S-X-G. All three VfEDL genes were upregulated at 1 hpi against the bacterial and fungal pathogens Rizhobiumvitis and E. ampelina, respectively, except VfEDL1, which was downregulated against E. ampelina at all time points. Against E. ampelina, VfEDL2 and VfEDL3 showed downregulated expression at later time points. When evaluated against R. vitis, VfEDL1 showed downregulated expression at all time points after 1 hpi, while VfEDL3 showed upregulation up to 24 hpi. Based on the expression response, all three genes may be involved in plant resistant responses against R. vitis, and VfEDL2 and VfEDL3 show additional resistant responses against E. ampelina infection.

항암, 항산화, 항균 활성을 나타내는 9종의 약용식물을 이용하여 포도나무 줄기혹병의 억제효과를 조사하였다. 공시한 식물 중에서 개똥쑥(15mm), 맨드라미의 꽃(27mm)과 잎(13mm), 여주의 미성숙 열매(22mm), 상사화 꽃(7mm), 질경이의 꽃(14mm)과 종자(16mm), 초석잠의 뿌리(13mm), 복숭아 나무의 수지(10mm) 추출물 등이 줄기혹병균(Rhizobium vitis)에 대해 항균활성을 나타내었다. 항균활성의 분획물의 최소억제농도를 확인한 결과 개똥쑥, 맨드라미 잎, 여주 미성숙과 분획물은 각각 50,000배, 질경이 꽃 분획물은 10,000배 희석액이 최소억제농도(MIC)로 확인되었다. 개똥쑥, 맨드라미 꽃과 잎, 여주의 미성숙 열매 추출물의 항균활성물질을 column chromatography와 thin layer chromatography(TLC)를 통하여 분획하였다. 핵산/에틸아세테이트와 메탄올/클로로포름(20:80, v/v)으로 전개한 TLC 분석에서 개똥쑥 추출물에서는 Rf 0.36, 0.69, 0.75, 0.84, 0.94, 맨드라미 꽃 추출물은 Rf 0.96, 0.99, 맨드라미 잎 추출물은 Rf 0.92, 0.97, 여주의 미성숙열매 추출물은 Rf 0.85에서 항균 활성의 분획을 획득하였다. 개똥쑥, 맨드라미 잎, 여주 미성숙 열매 추출물을 물에 희석(500, 1,000, 2,000배)하고 온실에서 R.vitis를 접종한 '거봉' 식물체에 7일 간격으로 관수한 결과, 개똥쑥 희석액은 100%, 맨드라미 잎 추출물(500배 희석액)은 67%, 여주 미성숙 열매 추출물(500배 희석액)은 83.3%의 억제효과를 나타내었다. 이러한 연구 결과는 약용식물 추출물이 포도나무 줄기혹병을 방제할 수 있는 친환경 제제로서의 적용가능성을 제시한 것이라 할 수 있다.

근류형성에 의한 생물학적 질소고정기능을 갖는 여러종의 근류균을 대상으로 분자생물학적 계통 분류의 기초자료를 얻기 위하여 Azorhizobium, Bradyrhizobium, Mesorhizobium, Rhizobium, Sinorhizobium 속의 33 균주에 대한 ITS 영역의 염기서열을 이용한 계통 분류가 이루어 졌다. 이들 균주중 대부분의 균주는 한 종류의 ITS 영역을 가지는 반면, 일부균주는 2개의 서로 다른 ITS 염기서열을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 실험에 이용된 모든 균주들간의 ITS 영역의 염기서열 상동성은 28 - 95%로 매우 변이폭가 컸으며, 이들 염기서열의 계통 분석에 의하면 4가지 그룹으로 구분되었다. Sinorhizobium 속의 모든 균주 및 Rhizobium giardinii 는 그룹 I으로 구분되었다 그룹 II는 R. giardinii를 제외한 모든 Rhizibium 속의 균주를 포함하고 있으며, 계통수의 topology는 매우 불안정한 것으로 나타났다. 특히, R. radiobacter와 R. rubi는 계통분류학적 위치가 불명확한 것으로 나타났다. Bradyrhizobium 속의 균주는 Azorhizobium caulinodans 와 함께 그룹 III로 구분되었고, 그룹 IV는 Mesorhizobium 속의 균주로 이루어 ㅈ다. 특히, Mesorhizobium 속균주의 ITS 영역의 염기서열 상동성이 높게 나타났다.
