In non-host Arabidopsis thaliana, DspA/E inhibits seed germination, root growth,de novo protein synthesis and triggers localized cell death. To better understand the mechanismsinvolved, we performed EMS mutagenesis on a transgenic line, 13-1-2, containing an inducible dspA/Egene. We identified three suppressor mutants, two of which belonged to the same complementationgroup. Both were resistant to the toxic effects of DspA/E. Metabolome analysis showed that the 13-1-2line was depleted in metabolites of the TCA cycle and accumulated metabolites associated with celldeath and defense. TCA cycle and cell-death associated metabolite levels were respectively increasedand reduced in both suppressor mutants compared to the 13-1-2 line. Whole genome sequencingindicated that both suppressor mutants displayed missense mutations in conserved residues ofGlycolate oxidase 2 (GOX2), a photorespiratory enzyme that we confirmed to be localized in theperoxisome. Leaf GOX activity increased in leaves infected with E. amylovora in a DspA/E-dependentmanner. Moreover, the gox2-2 KO mutant was more sensitive to E. amylovora infection and displayedreduced JA-signaling. Our results point to a role for glycolate oxidase in type II non-host resistanceand to the importance of central metabolic functions in controlling growth/defense balance.
