The SnTox1 effector is a virulence factor of the fungal pathogen Stagonospora nodorum (Berk.), which interacts with the host susceptibility gene Snn1 in a gene-for-gene manner and causes necrosis on the leaves of sensitive wheat genotypes. It is known that salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid (JA) and ethylene are the key phytohormones involved in plant immunity. To date, effectors of various pathogens have been discovered that can manipulate plant hormonal pathways and even use hormone crosstalk to promote disease development. However, the role of SnTox1 in manipulating hormonal pathways has not been studied in detail. We studied the redox status and the expression of twelve genes of hormonal pathways and two MAPK genes in six bread wheat cultivars sensitive and insensitive to SnTox1 with or without treatment by SA, JA and ethephon (ethylene-releasing agent) during infection with the SnTox1-producing isolate S. nodorum 1SP. The results showed that SnTox1 controls the antagonism between the SA and JA/ethylene signaling pathways. The SA pathway was involved in the development of susceptibility, and the JA/ethylene pathways were involved in the development of wheat plants resistance to the Sn1SP isolate in the presence of a SnTox1-Snn1 interaction. SnTox1 hijacked the SA pathway to suppress catalase activity, increase hydrogen peroxide content and induce necrosis formation: it simultaneously suppresses the JA and ethylene hormonal pathways by SA. To do this, SnTox1 reprogrammed the expression of the MAPK genes TaMRK3 and TaMRK6 and the TF genes TaWRKY13, TaEIN3 and TaWRKY53b. This study provides new data on the role of SnTox1 in manipulating hormonal pathways and on the role of SA, JA and ethylene in the pathosystem wheat S. nodorum.
