<front><div type="abstract" xml:lang="en"><p>Citrus canker disease caused by <italic>Xanthomonas citri</italic>
subsp. <italic>citri</italic>
(Xcc) is one of the most devastating biotic stresses affecting the citrus industry. Meiwa kumquat (<italic>Fortunella crassifolia</italic>
) is canker-resistant, while Newhall navel orange (<italic>Citrus sinensis</italic>
Osbeck) is canker-sensitive. To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the differences in responses to Xcc, transcriptomic profiles of these two genotypes following Xcc attack were compared by using the Affymetrix citrus genome GeneChip. A total of 794 and 1324 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified as canker-responsive genes in Meiwa and Newhall, respectively. Of these, 230 genes were expressed in common between both genotypes, while 564 and 1094 genes were only significantly expressed in either Meiwa or Newhall. Gene ontology (GO) annotation and Singular Enrichment Analysis (SEA) of the DEGs showed that genes related to the cell wall and polysaccharide metabolism were induced for basic defense in both Meiwa and Newhall, such as chitinase, glucanase and thaumatin-like protein. Moreover, apart from inducing basic defense, Meiwa showed specially upregulated expression of several genes involved in the response to biotic stimulus, defense response, and cation binding as comparing with Newhall. And in Newhall, abundant photosynthesis-related genes were significantly down-regulated, which may be in order to ensure the basic defense. This study revealed different molecular responses to canker disease in Meiwa and Newhall, affording insight into the response to canker and providing valuable information for the identification of potential genes for engineering canker tolerance in the future.</p>

<abstract><p>Citrus canker disease caused by <italic>Xanthomonas citri</italic>
subsp. <italic>citri</italic>
(Xcc) is one of the most devastating biotic stresses affecting the citrus industry. Meiwa kumquat (<italic>Fortunella crassifolia</italic>
) is canker-resistant, while Newhall navel orange (<italic>Citrus sinensis</italic>
Osbeck) is canker-sensitive. To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the differences in responses to Xcc, transcriptomic profiles of these two genotypes following Xcc attack were compared by using the Affymetrix citrus genome GeneChip. A total of 794 and 1324 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified as canker-responsive genes in Meiwa and Newhall, respectively. Of these, 230 genes were expressed in common between both genotypes, while 564 and 1094 genes were only significantly expressed in either Meiwa or Newhall. Gene ontology (GO) annotation and Singular Enrichment Analysis (SEA) of the DEGs showed that genes related to the cell wall and polysaccharide metabolism were induced for basic defense in both Meiwa and Newhall, such as chitinase, glucanase and thaumatin-like protein. Moreover, apart from inducing basic defense, Meiwa showed specially upregulated expression of several genes involved in the response to biotic stimulus, defense response, and cation binding as comparing with Newhall. And in Newhall, abundant photosynthesis-related genes were significantly down-regulated, which may be in order to ensure the basic defense. This study revealed different molecular responses to canker disease in Meiwa and Newhall, affording insight into the response to canker and providing valuable information for the identification of potential genes for engineering canker tolerance in the future.</p>

<body><sec id="s1"><title>Introduction</title>
<p>During the last decade, tremendous advancements have been achieved in the citrus industry throughout the world. However, the citrus industry worldwide suffers from an array of threats from biotic or abiotic stresses. Citrus canker caused by <italic>Xanthomonas citri</italic>
subsp. <italic>citri</italic>
(Xcc) is a devastating disease that has caused substantial losses in citrus-growing countries in the past decades. The canker symptoms include raised lesions on the surface of leaves, stems and fruits, with oily, water-soaked and pustule-like edges surrounded by chlorotic haloes <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Schubert1">[1]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Das1">[2]</xref>
. At present, the strategy for canker disease management relies on an integrated system encompassing both compatible cultural practices and phytosanitary measures, such as the eradication of inoculum sources and the application of copper-containing bactericides or antibiotics <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Das1">[2]</xref>
. Nevertheless, since there are certain limitations associated with both cultural practices and chemical control, the issue has not been completely addressed. For example, application of copper bactericides not only increases management costs, but also raises concerns regarding environmental contamination and food safety. Furthermore, evolution of bacterial genomes over time has led to copper resistance <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Stall1">[3]</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Behlau2">[5]</xref>
. Therefore, identification of effective compounds that can replace or supplement copper-containing chemicals is necessary. In the long run, selection or breeding of resistant cultivars may be the best solution for combating Xcc challenge in regions in which Xcc is endemic. As a fundamental step toward making these approaches possible, it is necessary to elucidate the molecular responses to Xcc invasion in the host plant.</p>
<p>During their long evolutionary process, plants have evolved a multitude of cellular, molecular, physiological, and biochemical alterations in order to adapt to or survive under adverse conditions, including biotic stresses caused by pathogens like Xcc. Of these alterations, molecular response at the transcriptional level has been demonstrated to be crucial for establishing a set of defense mechanisms against invading pathogens. Accumulating evidence has shown that expression of a large spectrum of genes is induced on exposure to microbial invasion in various plants <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Schenk1">[6]</xref>
. The products of these genes might function to directly protect the host plant from damage caused by pathogens, or act as regulatory molecules by perceiving stress signals and transmitting them to downstream targets. These genes constitute a delicate network that plays key roles in combating pathogens. The biotic stress-induced expression of a large number of genes suggests that the nature of the biotic stress response might be more complex than expected; this is one of the reasons for the difficulty in developing a clear-cut network for the biotic stress response. As a result, although myriad molecular components responsive to pathogenic attack have been identified in a wide range of plants, the highly complex and interconnected network <italic>per se</italic>
is still far from being fully understood. Moreover, it is worth mentioning that molecular responses may vary from plant to plant, although some parts of the responses may be common. It is therefore important to identify transcriptional changes in a given plant species under pathogenic stress in order to unravel the molecular elements that are specific to the plant itself.</p>
<p>Previously, researchers preferred to isolate and functionally analyze individual genes involved in the stress response. However, this is a piecemeal strategy and contributes little to a comprehensive understanding of the defense-related transcriptome that is controlled by quantitative mechanisms <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Eulgem1">[7]</xref>
. The advent of emerging research platforms like expression sequence tag (EST) databases, genome sequencing, and microarrays offers a good opportunity to expedite our efforts towards a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the biotic stress response. Of note, the recent availability of commercial cDNA chips provides a high-throughput approach to exploit a multitude of genes associated with many physiological processes. Transcriptomic profiling of gene expression using microarrays has been carried out in many plants under biotic stress, including <italic>Arabidopsis</italic>

, and cotton <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Miao1">[16]</xref>
. Such analytical tools may reveal global gene expression changes, facilitate the elucidation of the defense response at the molecular level, and provide a significant amount of knowledge regarding potential mechanisms responsible for disease resistance, which will underpin the rationale for developing resistant germplasms via genetic engineering.</p>
<p>In order to isolate genes that are potentially related to canker resistance, Deng <italic>et al.</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Deng1">[17]</xref>

<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Cernadas1">[12]</xref>
investigated the early molecular events (occurring at 4 and 48 h after inoculation) leading to canker development in sweet orange by analyzing changes in transcript levels using differential display, suppressed subtractive hybridization, and microarrays. Subsequently, Cernadas and Benedetti <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Cernadas2">[18]</xref>
assessed the expression patterns of cell-wall remodeling genes following Xcc infection. However, no information is yet available on a comparative transcriptome analysis between genotypes with contrasting tolerance levels to citrus canker disease. In spite of the conserved protective mechanisms among plants, resistant and susceptible genotypes may vary in their response to pathogen infection. Therefore, insightful investigation using a pair of genotypes with contrasting disease resistance phenotypes will help us better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying disease tolerance. Citrus canker has a fairly broad host range in Rutaceae and can affect many important citrus species and varieties despite the differences in the field resistance of these varieties <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Gottwald1">[19]</xref>
. It has been well documented that Meiwa kumquat (<italic>Fortunella crassifolia</italic>
) is immune to Xcc, whereas Newhall navel orange (<italic>Citrus sinensis</italic>
Osbeck) is one of the highly susceptible commercial varieties <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Das1">[2]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Wang1">[20]</xref>
. In the current study, we applied the Affymetrix citrus genome GeneChip for a pairwise comparison of the gene expression profiles of Meiwa and Newhall following Xcc inoculation, in order to gain valuable insight into the mechanisms underlying canker resistance in the former.</p>

<sec id="s2a"><title>Comparison of canker disease development in Meiwa and Newhall</title>
<p>To identify differences in the Xcc response between Meiwa and Newhall under our experimental conditions, the leaves of both species were pinprick-inoculated with the citrus canker bacterium and cultured in a growth chamber. As shown in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0041790-g001">Figure 1A</xref>
, tiny and slightly raised lesions began to appear on the adaxial surface of Newhall leaves at 5 days post-inoculation (DPI); such lesions were not found in Meiwa. At 7 DPI, the symptoms became more conspicuous in Newhall, with typical crateriform lesions surrounded by water-soaked margins, whereas only a few tiny blister-like lesions were present in Meiwa. In addition, bacterial growth assay demonstrates that the bacterial population in the leaves of Meiwa was significantly smaller than in Newhall (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0041790-g001">Figure 1B</xref>
). These results demonstrate that Meiwa was remarkably less susceptible to Xcc infection when compared with Newhall. In the current experiment, the differences in canker symptoms were apparent at 5 DPI, prior to the outbreak of the most serious symptoms. Therefore, inoculated leaves collected at 0 and 5 DPI were subjected to microarray analysis.</p>

<sec id="s2b"><title>Global expression profiles of Meiwa and Newhall after pinprick inoculation</title>
<p>To reveal differences in the response to Xcc challenge between these 2 genotypes with contrasting disease tolerances and obtain new insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying canker tolerance, the transcriptomes of Meiwa and Newhall were compared by analyzing their global gene expression profiles using citrus genome Genechip. After statistical analysis, 794 and 1324 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified as canker-responsive genes in Meiwa and Newhall, respectively. Among these genes, the expression of 530 genes was upregulated while that of 264 was downregulated in Meiwa. On the other hand, the expression of 610 genes was upregulated while that of 714 was downregulated in Newhall (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0041790-g002">Figure 2A</xref>
). In addition, 230 out of these DEGs were identified in both Meiwa and Newhall, of which 150 showed upregulated expression while 80 showed downregulation. Moreover, of the 564 genes that showed significant expression only in Meiwa, 380 genes showed upregulated expression while 184 were downregulated following Xcc infection. In contrast, of the 1094 genes that showed significant expression only in Newhall, 460 were upregulated and 634 showed downregulation (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0041790-g002">Figure 2B–C</xref>
). These data indicate that Meiwa and Newhall display noticeable differences in the Xcc response at the transcriptional level. Interestingly, the tolerant genotype, Meiwa, had significantly fewer canker-responsive genes than the canker-sensitive genotype Newhall.</p>

<p>All of the genes with significantly upregulated and downregulated expression levels in Meiwa and Newhall were aligned against the <italic>Arabidopsis</italic>

). With the exception of genes without any assignment, the main categories in both Meiwa and Newhall were related to the cell wall, secondary metabolism, hormone metabolism, stress response, miscellaneous, RNA, protein, signaling, and transport. Interestingly, expression of most of the stress-related genes was upregulated in Meiwa, but downregulated in Newhall. In addition, a total of 74 genes involved in photosynthesis showed significantly downregulated expression in Newhall. On the contrary, only 6 genes showed downregulated expression in Meiwa (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0041790.s002">Table S1</xref>

<p>In order to confirm the reliability of the microarray data, expression patterns of 10 up-regulated genes and 2 down-regulated genes were randomly selected and assessed by semi-quantitative RT-PCR using gene-specific primers (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0041790.s004">Table S3</xref>
). These selected genes putatively encode protease inhibitor (Cit.8464.1.S1_s_at), glucanase (Cit.30519.1.S1_s_at), phenylalanine-ammonia lyase (Cit.9590.1.S1_at), pectin acetylesterase (Cit.9134.1.S1_s_at), chitinase (Cit.302.1.S1_s_at), peroxidase (Cit.8519.1.S1_x_at, Cit.8514.1.S1_x_at), protein-binding transcription regulator (Cit.6280.1.S1_at), defense-related protein (Cit.36070.1.S1_at), oxidoreductase (Cit.24087.1.S1_s_at), and unknown proteins (Cit.3761.1.S1_x_at, Cit.17178.1.S1_x_at). As shown in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0041790-g003">Figure 3</xref>
, the results of RT-PCR were largely consistent with the microarray data, albeit the relative expression levels (ratio of gene levels before and after Xcc inoculation) seen with RT-PCR differed from those seen with GeneChip data in several instances (Cit.8464.1.S1_s_at, Cit.30519.1.S1_s_at, Cit.9590.1.S1_at, Cit.3761.1.S1_x_at, Cit.8519.1.S1_x_at, and Cit.17178.1.S1_x_at) in Meiwa or Newhall.

<sec id="s2d"><title>Common regulated genes between Meiwa and Newhall</title>
<p>As mentioned above, 230 genes, 150 up-regulated and 80 down-regulated, showed significantly altered expression in both Meiwa and Newhall following Xcc infection; these are defined here as common regulated genes. These genes are logically the ones that might offer basic defense against the canker disease in citrus. It has to be pointed out that although the expression of these genes was upregulated and downregulated in common between both genotypes, we observed significantly greater changes in the expression levels of 45 upregulated and 19 downregulated genes (difference value >4.0, marked with red and blue color, respectively) in Meiwa than in Newhall (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0041790.s005">Table S4</xref>
).</p>
<p>To further analyze these common regulated genes, the transcripts were categorized according to their annotated function with respect to biological processes, molecular functions, and cellular components, on the basis of the blast and GO term annotation using Blast2GO software <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Conesa1">[23]</xref>
. The biological processes mediated by these common regulated genes were primarily associated with metabolic processes, response to stimulus, cellular processes, biological regulation, and others (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0041790-g004">Figure 4</xref>
, <xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0041790-t001">Table 1</xref>
). Molecular functions were primarily related to catalytic and binding activity, transport, transcription regulation, enzyme regulation, electron carrier activity, antioxidant activity, nutrient reservoir activity, and molecular transduction. Interestingly, the last 3 categories were only present in the genes with upregulated expression. The cellular component categories included cell, organelle, extracellular region, macromolecular complex, and membrane-enclosed lumen. Most of these categories, such as metabolic processes, response to stimulus, antioxidant activity, transcription regulation, enzyme regulation, molecular transduction, and extracellular region, contained larger numbers of genes with typically upregulated expression than those with typically downregulated expression, whereas the electron carrier activity, transport, and macromolecular complex categories encompassed a greater proportion of genes with downregulated expression than genes with upregulated expression (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0041790-g004">Figure 4</xref>
). Singular Enrichment Analysis (SEA) <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Du1">[24]</xref>
of these GO terms was additionally carried out as described in the Materials and Methods section (<xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0041790-t002">Table 2</xref>
). In total, 25 remarkably enriched GO terms, such as plant-type cell wall organization, polysaccharide metabolism, glucan metabolism, flavonoid metabolism, response to biotic stimulus, hydrolase activity, oxidoreductase activity, calcium ion binding, apoplast, and cell wall, were identified in the upregulated genes (<xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0041790-t002">Table 2</xref>
, <xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0041790-t003">Table 3</xref>
). This suggests that the genes with typically upregulated expression under these GO terms played essential roles in the response to canker disease. Interestingly, no GO terms were enriched in the genes with typically downregulated expression, which indicates that on Xcc challenge, both Meiwa and Newhall predominantly rely on the positively regulated genes to defend against invasion by the incoming pathogen.</p>

<sec id="s2e"><title>Differentially expressed genes specific to Meiwa</title>
<p>Since Meiwa is more tolerant to citrus canker disease than Newhall, DEGs present only in Meiwa may have distinctive roles in fighting against bacterial canker. A total of 564 genes, 380 with upregulated and 184 with downregulated expression, were grouped into this category, accounting for 1.87% of all the Affymetrix Citrus genome Genechip probe sets. To better understand the functions of these specifically regulated genes, BLAST analysis and GO term annotation were performed (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0041790.s006">Table S5</xref>
).</p>
<p>Based on the biological process, the DEGs were classified into several major groups, such as the metabolic processes, cellular processes, response to stimulus, biological regulation, and others (<xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0041790-t003">Table 3</xref>
, <xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0041790-g005">Figure 5</xref>
). In terms of molecular function, these genes were related to catalytic activity, binding, transport, molecular transduction, transcription regulation, enzyme regulation, and electron carrier activity, and others. The cellular component categories included cell, organelle, extracellular region, macromolecular complex, and membrane-enclosed lumen. Similar to the trend seen among the common regulated genes, the number of genes with upregulated expression in these categories was higher than that of the genes with downregulated expression. To analyze the correlation between these functional categories and the response to canker disease, SEA was again performed as described above. For genes that were specifically upregulated in Meiwa, a total of 46 significantly enriched terms were identified, including lipid localization, carbohydrate metabolism, chitin metabolism, response to biotic stimulus, glucan metabolism, defense response, hydrolase activity, chitinase activity, water channel activity, carbohydrate binding, oxidoreductase activity, cation binding, cell wall, and vesicle (<xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0041790-t004">Tables 4</xref>
, <xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0041790-t005">5</xref>
and <xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0041790-t006">6</xref>
). However, for the genes that are specifically downregulated in Meiwa, only 9 significantly enriched terms were identified, including fatty acid metabolism, oligosaccharide metabolism, galactose metabolism, transferase activity, hydrolase activity, phosphoprotein phosphatase activity, and others. This indicates that the enriched categories were remarkably fewer in the genes with downregulated expression than in the genes with upregulated expression. In the case of Newhall, 5 and 128 significantly enriched terms were identified specifically in the genes with upregulated and downregulated expression, respectively (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0041790.s007">Table S6</xref>
). Unlike in Meiwa, the number of enriched terms in Newhall was markedly higher in the genes with downregulated expression than in the ones with upregulated expression.</p>

<sec id="s3a"><title>Transcriptomic characterization of Meiwa and Newhall upon Xcc infection</title>
<p>Comparative study is an important and effective strategy for the critical analysis of genotypes with contrasting stress tolerance. Previous studies have shown that kumquat is tolerant to citrus canker disease, while sweet orange is highly susceptible <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Das1">[2]</xref>
. This is supported by the phenotypic observation of symptoms following pinprick inoculation of Meiwa and Newhall in our study. To better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the difference in Xcc tolerance, and to identify the essential genes involved in canker disease tolerance, we carried out a transcriptome comparison of Meiwa and Newhall using the commercially available Citrus Affymetix GeneChip Array. The microarray data showed that the transcriptional profile of Meiwa was quite different from that of Newhall in response to canker disease. A striking difference is that a relatively smaller number of genes were induced in the tolerant Meiwa than in the susceptible Newhall following Xcc infection (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0041790-g002">Figure 2</xref>
), which is consistent with the magnitude of the developing cankers in these two genotypes. Our data are consistent with the results of Taji <italic>et al.</italic>

<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Zheng1">[28]</xref>
reported that under drought stress condition, a drought-tolerant maize inbred line had fewer drought-responsive genes than did a drought-sensitive line. One of the explanations for this phenomenon might be that tolerant genotypes exhibit a limited molecular response at the transcriptional level because they suffer from a relatively lower degree of stress injury than the susceptible ones. Notably, in Meiwa, the number of genes with upregulated expression was approximately twice that of the genes with downregulated expression. In contrast, in Newhall, genes with upregulated expression were fewer than those with downregulated expression. This result indicates that Meiwa might mainly deploy positive regulation in response to canker disease, and that negative regulation is predominant in Newhall.</p>
<p>MapManBin classification <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Thimm1">[29]</xref>
indicates that the expression of a large number of photosynthesis-related genes was downregulated in Newhall, including those encoding proteins involved in photosystem I (PSI), photosystem II (PSII), ATP synthase, and the Calvin cycle. In contrast, the expression of only a few genes involved in photosynthesis was downregulated in Meiwa. Downregulation of the expression of photosynthesis-related genes showed good agreement with the findings in previous studies, indicating that the expression of many photosynthetic genes was repressed on encountering a biotic attack <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Zou1">[30]</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Bilgin1">[32]</xref>
. These results suggest that photosynthetic function in the host plant is compromised when biotic attack results in morphological changes, such as the establishment of canker in the leaves. In this context, the larger number of genes repressed in the susceptible genotype (Newhall) is consistent with the more serious canker symptoms observed, in comparison with the severity of the symptoms in the tolerant genotype. One explanation for this is that the susceptible genotype may require a larger investment in defense needs by the reallocation of nitrogen from the photosynthetic pathway to the defense machinery <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Bilgin1">[32]</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Paul1">[34]</xref>
. However, rather than being the cause of the tolerance or susceptibility mechanism, the repressed expression of photosynthesis-related genes under such circumstances may merely reflect the influence of the biotic challenge on the host plant.</p>
<p>Despite the aforementioned differences, Meiwa and Newhall still share a large number of common regulated genes following Xcc infection. These genes may be necessary for the response to biotic stress and may play basic roles in defense against Xcc. This is logical, as plants have evolutionarily developed conserved defense machinery against invading pathogens irrespective of their stress tolerance capacity, suggesting that they may exhibit the same subsets of gene expression and signaling pathways under adverse environmental stresses. This implies that the expression of these genes can be also induced in other citrus species upon bacterial invasion. Although we did not try to identify the expression patterns of common regulated genes in other cultivars, it is interesting to note that several common regulated genes, such as cytochrome P450, xyloglucan endotransglycosylase, phenylalanine-ammonia lyase, expansin, peroxidase, and chitinase-related genes, have been shown to be induced in other citrus cultivars, such as ‘Pêra’ and ‘Cristal’, following Xcc inoculation <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Cernadas1">[12]</xref>
. The identification of common regulated genes is not unique to this study; it has been reported in other stressful conditions. For instance, Zheng <italic>et al.</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Zheng1">[28]</xref>
presented data to show that drought-tolerant and drought-sensitive maize lines expressed a common set of genes in response to drought stress.</p>
<p>DEGs that are specifically present in Meiwa are more important than the common regulated genes, as the former might provide valuable information on the molecular basis of canker tolerance in this genotype. We used GO term enrichment analysis to gain more insight into these genes, as it is traditionally an efficient strategy to analyze the representation of genes under different categories by comparing gene expression profiles to the background <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Du1">[24]</xref>
. GO term enrichment analysis revealed a remarkable difference in gene distribution frequency between Meiwa and Newhall: the former has a larger number of genes enriched in the upregulated gene cluster, while the latter had more categories of genes enriched in the downregulated cluster.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="s3b"><title>Significantly enriched genes in response to biotic stimulus</title>
<p>According to the GO term enrichment analysis, 7 and 16 genes responsive to biotic stimulus were significantly enriched in the common regulated and Meiwa-specifically regulated genes, respectively (<xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0041790-t001">Table 1</xref>
and <xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0041790-t002">Table 2</xref>
). Based on functional annotation, these genes, encoding proteins such as chitinase, proteinase inhibitor, thaumatin-like protein, β-1, 3-glucanase, wound-induced protein win1, receptor protein kinase, and other unknown proteins, are directly involved in responses to biotic stimuli. Proteinase inhibitors (PIs) belong to the PR6 family, which is widely distributed in the plant kingdom <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Jwa1">[35]</xref>

–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Rakwal1">[39]</xref>
. These results provide a clue that PIs may potentially perform specific functions in response to citrus canker. Thaumatin-like proteins (TLPs), categorized under the PR5 family, have been shown to accumulate when plants are attacked by pathogens <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Jwa1">[35]</xref>
. In addition, <italic>in vitro</italic>

<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Datta1">[41]</xref>
presented data to show that the overexpression of a TLP gene conferred resistance to sheath blight disease in transgenic rice. These data led us to hypothesize that the induction of TLP genes might be an integral part of the defense machinery against canker in Meiwa. Receptor-like kinases act on the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns, such as bacterial flagellin, which trigger immunity and effector-mediated immune responses <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Chisholm1">[42]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-GmezGmez1">[43]</xref>
. In the present study, a receptor kinase was abundantly enriched in the subset of genes specifically regulated in Meiwa, indicating that Meiwa might activate downstream defenses in a more efficient manner. Although the functions of these genes have not been verified herein, we can speculate that these genes are closely involved in the canker resistance of Meiwa, in light of previous studies.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="s3c"><title>The expression levels of cell wall and polysaccharide metabolism-related genes change markedly in Meiwa upon canker infection</title>
<p>Among both common regulated and Meiwa-specific genes, an array of genes related to cell wall and polysaccharide metabolism was significantly enriched. The plant cell wall plays an important role in basal defense, as it is the primary region of the host-pathogen interaction and constitutes the first physical barrier to limit pathogen colonization <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Vorwerk1">[44]</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Lagaert1">[47]</xref>

, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Albrecht1">[53]</xref>
. Up-regulation of the expansin gene suggests that following Xcc inoculation, host plants may accumulate a larger amount of this protein, which functions as a cell wall loosening agent to increase cell wall extensibility <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Xu1">[51]</xref>
. XET catalyzes the cleavage of the xyloglucan backbone, a major structural hemicellulose polysaccharide in the primary cell wall, to form secondary cell walls. The induction of these genes indicates that modification of cell wall flexibility may be a crucial protective strategy in Meiwa to limit pathogen invasion or spread in the internal tissues.</p>
<p>It has been well documented that high-molecular-weight polysaccharides such as chitin and peptidoglycan are the major components of the cell wall of pathogens. Here, Xcc infection led to a significant induction of genes involved in chitin and glucan metabolism in Meiwa, including chitinase, endo-β-1, 4-glucanase (EGase), and β-1, 3-glucanase (<xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0041790-t005">Table 5</xref>
). This is consistent with the work of Cernadas <italic>et al.</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Cernadas1">[12]</xref>
, who found that inoculation with the citrus canker pathogen enhanced the transcriptional levels of these genes in sweet orange. Chitinase (EC 3.2.1.14) hydrolyzes the β-1, 4-glycoside bond present in the chitin polymer to release chitin fragments, such as chitooligosaccharides or chitin oligomers, from cell walls and thereby activate plant innate immunity <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Punja1">[54]</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Wan1">[56]</xref>
. The presence of abundant chitinase genes in Meiwa suggests that the degradation of the cell wall of invading pathogens is more extensive in this genotype, leading to inhibition of pathogen proliferation and the spread or induction of systemic defense. Moreover, EGase functions in cell wall loosening, which is important for expansion or major cell wall disruption <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Loopstra1">[57]</xref>

<sec id="s3d"><title>Genes related to cation binding are prominently enriched in Meiwa upon Xcc infection</title>
<p>Among the genes specifically regulated in Meiwa, as many as 54 genes were significantly enriched in the cation-binding category, including those involved in the binding of iron, calcium, copper, zinc, and other unknown ions (<xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0041790-t002">Table 2</xref>
and <xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0041790-t006">Table 6</xref>
). In contrast, this category of genes was not enriched among the genes specifically regulated in Newhall. This finding implies that the cation-binding process may be, at least in part, responsible for the difference in canker tolerance between these two genotypes. Copper ion binding is potentially of interest, because copper-containing bactericides have been extensively applied to control citrus canker disease <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Das1">[2]</xref>

<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Yuan1">[65]</xref>
reported that the copper level is a key determinant of the defense response to <italic>Xanthomonas oryzae</italic>
causing blight in rice. The induction of copper ion binding suggests that copper redistribution may be modified in Meiwa in order to protect the host plant from Xcc bacterial invasion, as has been documented by Yuan <italic>et al.</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Yuan1">[65]</xref>
. Apart from copper ion binding, there are 14 genes related to iron ion binding, 7 of which encode cytochrome P450 (<xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0041790-t006">Table 6</xref>
). Iron is an important micronutrient for virtually all living organisms, and iron homeostasis commonly occurs in pathogen-host interactions. Bacteria need to acquire iron from the host for their own survival, and the host can limit bacterial pathogen invasion through an iron-withholding model <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Johnson1">[66]</xref>
. Enrichment of these genes in Meiwa demonstrates that the uptake of iron ions by bacteria from the host plant may be efficiently restrained, leading to growth arrest of the invading pathogens. Cytochrome P450s, a group of heme-containing enzymes that are ubiquitously present in bacteria and plants <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Hwang1">[67]</xref>
, have been shown to regulate the biosynthesis of defense-related compounds <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Schuler1">[68]</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Kim1">[69]</xref>
. Calcium ion binding probably plays an important signaling role in response to canker disease, because calcium is a well-known second messenger in numerous plant signaling pathways <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0041790-Lecourieux1">[70]</xref>
. However, the physiological or molecular relevance of zinc ion binding and that of other cations remains to be determined, as limited information is available so far on their activation upon pathogen attack.</p>
<p>Taken together, a comparative transcriptomic analysis of Meiwa and Newhall in this study reveals that they differ greatly in the molecular response to citrus canker, which may partially explain their phenotypical variation with regard to disease tolerance. When challenged with Xcc bacteria, expression of genes involved in polysaccharide metabolism, biotic stimulus response, cell wall strengthening, and cation binding was altered, thereby promoting the production/synthesis of a large spectrum of second metabolites and modifying ion homeostasis. These biological processes may work cooperatively to limit bacterial penetration, proliferation, spread, and growth, conferring canker tolerance. By contrast, in Newhall only a few basal responsive proteins such as chitinase, glucanase, and thaumatin-like protein were activated, leading to the production of a limited amount of relevant products that function to protect the host against the canker pathogen. In addition, Xcc attack repressed the expression of several genes associated with photosynthesis in Newhall. The data presented herein revealed the molecular mechanisms underlying the contrasting canker tolerance between Meiwa and Newhall, and the Meiwa-specific regulated genes hold great potential for engineering canker tolerance in the future. The next challenge is to narrow down the genes screened in this study based on expression patterns and to finally exploit and functionally identify the genes that are truly responsible for the canker tolerance. In addition, creation of transgenic plants with enhanced canker tolerance using the genes tapped from this study will be of paramount significance for providing novel germplasms that can be integrated into citrus breeding pipeline in the long run.</p>
