Plant proteins with domains rich in leucine repeats play important roles in detecting pathogens and triggering defense reactions, both at the cellular surface for pattern-triggered immunity and in the cell to ensure effector-triggered immunity. As intracellular parasites, viruses are mostly detected intracellularly by proteins with a nucleotide binding site and leucine-rich repeats but receptor-like kinases with leucine-rich repeats, known to localize at the cell surface, have also been involved in response to viruses. In the present review we report on the progress that has been achieved in the last decade on the role of these leucine-rich proteins in antiviral immunity, with a special focus on our current understanding of the hypersensitive response.

The Hypersensitive Response to Plant Viruses

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous, 19–24-nucleotide-long, noncoding RNAs found in animals, plants, and some viruses. Drought is one of the major limiting factors that negatively affect productivity of plants. To date, nothing is known about the regulatory roles of miRNAs in response to drought stress in cardamom. Cardamom collected from the natural forest area in Therakkudi in the Idamalayar forest range was selected for the study. Total RNA was isolated from leaves and stems of control and drought treated cardamom plant, which was used for library construction. Ion torrent sequencing of the two small RNA libraries prepared from plants raised under well irrigated and drought stressed treatments, respectively, created 3,938,342 and 4,083,181 primary reads. A total of 150 conserved and 20 novel microRNAs were identified from both the control and the treated libraries. Discovery of 17 differentially expressed miRNAs under drought stress suggests that these might have been involved in various biological processes to improve plant tolerance to water stress. This study is the first report of drought responsive miRNAs and their targets in cardamom. The outcome of this research could provide insights into the miRNA based regulatory mechanisms in response to drought stress in monocot plants.
