Abstract:
:Nicotiana repanda Wildenow ex Lehmann acylates nornicotine in its trichomes to produce N-acyl-nornicotine (NacNN) alkaloids which are dramatically more toxic than nicotine is to the nicotine-adapted herbivore, Manduca sexta. These NacNNs, like nicotine, were induced by methyl jasmonate (MeJA) and wounding, but the 2-fold increase in NacNN pools was much faster (within 6 h) than the MeJA-induced increase in nornicotine pools (24 h to 4 d), its parent substrate. When 15NO(-)3 pulse-chase experiments with intact and induced plants were used to follow the incorporation of 15N into alkaloids in different plant parts over the plant's lifetime, it was found that the root nicotine pool was most rapidly labeled, followed by the shoot nornicotine and NacNN pools. After 3 d, 3.12% of 15N acquired was in nicotine (0.93%), nornicotine (0.32%) and NacNNs (1.73%) while only 0.14% was in anabasine. Once NacNNs are externalized to the leaf surface, they are not readily re-distributed within the plant and are lost with senescing leaves. The wound- and MeJA-induced N-acylation of nornicotine is independent of induced changes in nornicotine pools and the rapidity of the response suggests its importance in defense against herbivores.
