Aphid-plant interaction; biotic and abiotic factors; genetic resistance
Abstract :
[en] Abstract. Little is known about the simultaneous effects of drought stress and
plant resistance on herbivorous insects. By subjecting the green peach aphid Myzus
persicae Sulzer to well-watered and drought-stressed plants of both susceptible and
resistant peach (Prunus persica), the effects of both stressors on aphid performance and
proteomics are tested. Overall, the influence of thewater treatment on aphid performance
is less pronounced than the effect of host plant genetic resistance. On the susceptible
cultivar, aphid survival, host acceptance and ability to colonize the plant do not depend
on water treatment. On the resistant cultivar, aphid survival and ability to colonize are
higher on drought-stressed than on well-watered plants. A study examining the pattern
of protein expression aiming to explain the variation in aphid performance finds higher
protein expression in aphids on the drought-stressed susceptible cultivars compared with
the well-watered ones. In the susceptible cultivar, the regulated proteins are related
to energy metabolism and exoskeleton functionality, whereas, in the resistant cultivar,
the proteins are involved with the cytoskeleton. Comparison of the protein expression
ratios for resistant versus susceptible plants reveals that four proteins are down-regulated
in well-watered plants and 15 proteins are down-regulated in drought-stressed plants.
Drought stress applied to the susceptible cultivar induces the regulation of proteins in
M. persicae that enable physiological adaptation to maintain an almost unaltered aphid
performance. By contrast, for aphids on the resistant cultivar subjected to drought stress,
the down-regulation of proteins responds to an induced host susceptibility effect.
