-mediated plant transformation (AMT) is the basis of modern-day plant biotechnology. One major drawback of this technology is the recalcitrance of many plant species/varieties to
Agrobacterium
infection, most likely caused by elicitation of plant defense responses. Here, we develop a strategy to increase AMT by engineering
Agrobacterium tumefaciens
to express a type III secretion system (T3SS) from
Pseudomonas syringae
and individually deliver the
P. syringae
effectors AvrPto, AvrPtoB, or HopAO1 to suppress host defense responses. Using the engineered
Agrobacterium
, we demonstrate increase in AMT of wheat, alfalfa and switchgrass by ~250%–400%. We also show that engineered
A. tumefaciens
expressing a T3SS can deliver a plant protein, histone H2A-1, to enhance AMT. This strategy is of great significance to both basic research and agricultural biotechnology for transient and stable transformation of recalcitrant plant species/varieties and to deliver proteins into plant cells in a non-transgenic manner.
Agrobacterium infection can cause defense responses in many plants, which leads to transformation recalcitrance. Here, the authors express type III secretion system in Agrobacterium to deliver effector proteins into plant cells to suppress host defense responses and thus enhance transformation in some plant species. |
