Hypaphorine, an indole alkaloid from the ectomycorrhizal fungus Pisolithus tinctorius Coker & Couch., counteracts indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) activity and controls the rate of root hair elongation in Eucalyptus globulus ssp. bicostata. The present investigation shows that hypaphorine changes
Root hairs are tubular cells resulting from a tip-localized growth in which calcium ions play a key role. Hypaphorine, an indole alkaloid secreted by the fungus Pisolithus microcarpus during the formation of ectomycorrhizae with the host plant Eucalyptus globulus, inhibits root hair tip growth.
A full-length cDNA coding for a symbiosis-regulated transcript, EgHypar, was isolated by differential screening from a Eucalyptus globulus bicostata--Pisolithus tinctorius ectomycorrhiza. The sequence of this clone revealed a protein with an estimated molecular mass of 25.5 kDa that exhibited a high
Signals leading to mycorrhizal differentiation are largely unknown. We have studied the sensitivity of the root system from plant model Arabidopsis thaliana to hypaphorine, the major indolic compound isolated from the basidiomycetous fungus Pisolithus tinctorius. This fungi establishes
Hypaphorine, the major indolic compound isolated from the ectomycorrhizal fungus Pisolithus tinctorius, controls the elongation rate of root hairs. At inhibitory concentrations (100 microM), hypaphorine induced a transitory swelling of root hair tips of Eucalyptus globulus Labill. ssp. bicostata.
The fungus Pisolithus microcarpus establishes an ectomycorrhiza with Eucalyptus globulus. This symbiosis involves a fungal synthesis and secretion of hypaphorine, an indolic compound. Previous studies have shown that hypaphorine induces an alteration in the actin cytoskeleton of elongating root
