Abstract

Verticillium wilt causes devastating loss of yield and quality in many crops, including cotton. To determine the molecular mechanism of resistance to verticillium wilt in cotton, we isolated a new cytochrome P450 gene, CYP94C1, and analysed its function. We obtained the complete open reading frame, which encodes a protein of 500 amino acids. The results of the functional analysis showed that resistance to verticillium wilt was enhanced when the gene was silenced using the virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) method in cotton. GbCYP94Cl-overexpressing Arabidopsis was more susceptible to Verticillium dahliae compared with the wild-type. In addition, GbCYP94C1 played a role in plant wound responses and in the expression of certain jasmonic acid (JA) signalling pathway. The results suggest thatGbCYP94C1 plays a role in verticillium wilt resistance in cotton via the JA signalling pathway.
