European plum production is affected by mostly harm Monilinia spp., causing full pathogen brown-rot infections. The plums are the susceptible to the Monilinia fructigena pathogen, which is the most common in Europe. This study aims to analyze the gene expression profiles and signaling pathways of the European plum, cv. Victoria, inoculated with the M. fructigena pathogen at 24, 48, and 72 h post inoculation. By transcriptome sequencing, the number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) increased over time, with the highest number at 72 hpi, showing the tendency to involve more genes in the response to prolonged exposure to the pathogen. Pathogenesis-related (PR) family and mildew resistance locus O (MLO-like) proteins were expressed the most during plum response to the pathogen. The plum initiates complex defense responses by significantly activating 23 pathways according to Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). In this study, expressed genes over the infection were in response to stress, defense, cell death, and disease resistance. The findings of this study could be used as the basis for further research of markers linked to resistance or susceptibility to disease in plum hybrids at an early age, which will improve the plum breeding process.
