摘要： Cassava (Manihot esculenta) is an important food crop in tropical area, but its production is largely affected by cassava bacterial blight. However, the information of defense-related genes in cassava is very limited. Calcium ions play essential roles in plant development and stress signaling pathways. Calcineurin B-like proteins (CBLs) and CBL-interacting protein kinases (CIPKs) are crucial components of calcium signals. In this study, systematic expression profile of 25MeCIPKs in response to Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. manihotis (Xam) infection was examined, by which seven candidate MeCIPKs were chosen for functional investigation. Through transient expression in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves, we found that six MeCIPKs (MeCIPK5, MeCIPK8, MeCIPK12, MeCIPK22, MeCIPK23 and MeCIPK24) conferred improved defense response, via regulating the transcripts of several defense-related genes. Notably, we found that MeCIPK23 interacted with MeCBL1 and MeCBL9, and overexpression of these genes conferred improved defense response. On the contrary, virus-induced gene silencing of either MeCIPK23 or MeCBL1/9 or both genes resulted in disease sensitive in cassava. To our knowledge, this is the first study identifying MeCIPK23 as well as MeCBL1 and MeCBL9 that confer enhanced defense response against Xam.
