摘要: Background: DIR (Dirigent) proteins play important roles in the biosynthesis of lignin and lignans and are involved in various processes such as plant growth, development, and stress responses. However, there is less information about VvDIR proteins in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L). Results: In this study, we used bioinformatics methods to identify members of the DIR gene family in grapevine and identified 18 VvDIR genes in grapevine. These genes were classified into 5 subfamilies based on phylogenetic analysis. In promoter analysis, various plant hormones, stress, and light-responsive cis-elements were detected. Expression profiling of all genes following Colletotrichum gloeosporioides infection and phytohormones (salicylic acid (SA) and jasmonic acid (JA)) application suggested significant upregulation of 17 and 6 VvDIR genes, respectively. Further, we overexpressed the VvDIR4 gene in Arabidopsis thaliana and grapes for functional analysis. Ectopic expression of VvDIR4 in A. thaliana and transient expression in grapes increased resistance against C. gloeosporioides and C. higginsianum, respectively. Phenotypic observations showed small disease lesions in transgenic plants. Further, the expression patterns of genes having presumed roles in SA and JA signaling pathways were also influenced. Lignin contents were measured before and after C. higginsianum infection; the transgenic A. thaliana lines showed higher lignin content than wild-type, and a significant increase was observed after C. higginsianum infection. Conclusions: Based on the findings, we surmise that VvDIR4 is involved in hormonal and lignin synthesis pathways which regulate resistance against anthracnose. Our study provides novel insights into the function of VvDIR genes and new candidate genes for grapevine disease resistance breeding programs.
