INTRODUCTION: Duplication events are fundamental to co-evolution in host-pathogen interactions. Pseudogenes (Ψs) are dysfunctional paralogs of functional genes and resistance genes (Rs) in plants are the key to disarming pathogenic invasions. Thus, deciphering the roles of pseudo-R genes in plant defense is momentous.
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to functionally characterize diverse roles of the resistance Ψs as novel gene footprints and as significant gene regulators in the grapevine genome.
METHODS: PlantPseudo pipeline and HMM-profiling identified whole-genome duplication-derived (WGD) Ψs associated with resistance genes (Ψ-Rs). Further, novel antifungal and antimicrobial peptides were characterized for fungal associations using protein-protein docking with Erysiphe necator proteins. miRNA and tasiRNA target sites and transcription factor (TF) binding sites were predicted in Ψ-Rs. Finally, differential co-expression patterns in Ψ-Rs-lncRNAs-coding genes were identified using the UPGMA method.
RESULTS: 2,746 Ψ-Rs were identified from 31,032 WGD Ψs in the genome of grapevine. 69-antimicrobial and 81-antifungal novel peptides were generated from Ψ-Rs. The putative genic potential was predicted for five novel antifungal peptides which were further characterized by docking against E. necator proteins. 395 out of 527 resistance loci-specific Ψ-Rs were acting as parental gene mimics. Further, to explore the diverse roles of Ψ-Rs in plant-defense, we identified 37,026 TF-binding sites, 208 miRNA, and 99 tasiRNA targeting sites on these Ψ-Rs. 194 Ψ-Rs were exhibiting tissue-specific expression patterns. The co-expression network analysis between Ψs-lncRNA-genes revealed six out of 79 pathogen-responsive Ψ-Rs as significant during pathogen invasion.
CONCLUSIONS: Our study provides pathogen responsive Ψ-Rs integral for pathogen invasion, which will offer a useful resource for future experimental validations. In addition, our findings on novel peptide generations from Ψ-Rs offer valuable insights which can serve as a useful resource for predicting novel genes with the futuristic potential of being investigated for their bioactivities in the plant system.
