In this study, RNA-seq was used to investigate gene expression in a Fusarium verticillioides isolate resistant to glyphosate. Analyzing the transcriptome revealed differentially expressed genes in response to glyphosate treatment, leading to the identification of candidate genes. These findings offer new insights for acquiring glyphosate resistance resources.
Glyphosate is a broad-spectrum herbicide that has been widely used for nonselective weed control in soybean fields. In the present study, RNA-seq of an Fusarium verticillioides isolate exhibiting resistance to 120 mM glyphosate revealed gene expression occurring in the presence of glyphosate and led to the identification and screening of candidate genes. A transcriptome analysis revealed 5,548 and 5,361 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the glyphosate resistant (GR) Fusarium verticillioides isolate treated with 45 and 90 mM glyphosate, respectively. The gene ontology (GO) pathways associated with these differentially expressed genes primarily included metabolic process, amine metabolic process, cellular aromatic compound metabolism and stress response. The primary Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) metabolic pathways included biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, carbon metabolism, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, and nitrogen metabolism. The glyphosate degradation-related gene fv04, which belongs to the 3-isopropylalate dehydratase of the aconitase superfamily, was cloned to generate the prokaryotic expression vector pET-29b-fv04, which could be stably expressed in E. coli and promote the degradation of 52.3% of 500 mg/L glyphosate in 72 h. The results of the present study provide new ideas and insights for the acquisition of glyphosate resistance resources.
