Abstract
AbstractLipo-chitooligosaccharides (LCO) and short-chain chitooligosaccharides (CO) are produced by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and activate the plant symbiosis signalling pathway, which is essential for mycorrhiza formation. High affinity LCO receptors belonging to the LysM receptor-like kinase (LysM-RLK) phylogenetic groupLYR-IAplay a role in AM establishment, but no plant high affinity short-chain CO receptors have yet been identified. Here we studied members of the uncharacterizedLYR-IBgroup, and found that they show high affinity for LCO, short- and long-chain CO, and play a complementary role with theLYR-IALCO receptors for AM establishment. WhileLYR-IBknock out mutants had a reduced AMF colonization in several species, constitutive/ectopic expression in wheat increased AMF colonization.LYR-IBfunction is conserved in all tested angiosperms, but in most japonica rice a deletion creates a frameshift in the gene, explaining differences in AM phenotypes between rice and other monocot singleLYR-IAmutants. In conclusion, we identified a class of LysM-RLK receptors in angiosperms with new biochemical properties and a role in both LCO and CO perception for AM establishment.
