描述信息 Phytopathogenic fungi can be recognized by the plant immune system and trigger host defenses, but only adapted pathogens cause susceptibility. How different cell types orchestrate biological processes in response to heterogeneous colonization of organs by adapted and non-adapted pathogens remains largely unknown. Here we employed single-cell RNA sequencing to dissect the response of wheat coleoptiles to infection by the adapted fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum (Fgr) and the non-adapted fungal pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc) at 1-, 2-, and 3-days post inoculation. We profiled the transcriptomes of over 90,000 cells and identified eight major cell types of the coleoptile: stomata, epidermis, chlorenchyma, parenchyma, outer sheath, inner sheath, phloem, and procambium. Differential expression analyses showed that the capacity of different cell types to respond to fungal infection varied. The upregulation of immune pathways was compartmentalized in nonhost resistance to Foc, but widespread in susceptible interaction with Fgr. Pseudotime analyses revealed continuous cell state transitions in the disease progression of infected cell types. Our work shows that the phloem and outer sheath are specialized cell types that collaborate for the rapid onset of nonhost resistance. However, Fgr induces a state of low transcriptional activity in chlorenchyma cells. Additionally, the competition between immune and susceptible processes in parenchyma results in specific cell states that are favored by the adapted pathogen Fgr. Overall, this work explains how cell types collaborate and are manipulated during fungal infections, providing insight into the intercellular mechanisms of plant immunity.
