    Symbioses between plants and mycorrhizal fungi are ubiquitous in ecosystems and strengthen the plants’ defense against aboveground herbivores. Here, we studied the underlying regulatory networks and biochemical mechanisms in leaves induced by ectomycorrhizae that modify herbivore interactions. Feeding damage and oviposition by the widespread poplar leaf beetle Chrysomela populi were reduced on the ectomycorrhizal hybrid poplar Populus × canescens. Integration of transcriptomics, metabolomics, and volatile emission patterns via mass difference networks demonstrated changes in nitrogen allocation in the leaves of mycorrhizal poplars, down-regulation of phenolic pathways, and up-regulation of defensive systems, including protease inhibitors, chitinases, and aldoxime biosynthesis. Ectomycorrhizae had a systemic influence on jasmonate-related signaling transcripts. Our results suggest that ectomycorrhizae prime wounding responses and shift resources from constitutive phenol-based to specialized protective compounds. Consequently, symbiosis with ectomycorrhizal fungi enabled poplars to respond to leaf beetle feeding with a more effective arsenal of defense mechanisms compared with nonmycorrhizal poplars, thus demonstrating the importance of belowground plant-microbe associations in mitigating aboveground biotic stress

    As one of the fastest growing tree species with good regeneration from rootstocks, poplars are the perfect fit for biofuel, wood and fibre production. Poplar plantations are, however, subjected to a variety of environmental stresses, which can drastically alter plant fitness and biomass production. Additionally, poplars emit the volatile organic compound isoprene, which is a precursor of ozone and secondary aerosols in the troposphere. Genetically modified non-isoprene emitting poplars could be a well-fitting alternative to isoprene emitting poplars normally used for biomass production. However, isoprene is an important molecule in the stress response of poplars and how the lack of isoprene emission affects the performance of poplars, is functionally and biochemically not entirely understood. Metabolites are a direct result of changes in gene, transcript and protein expressions. Thus they represent the perfect read-out for studying the impact of environmental factors as well as genetic modifications on plant performance. The scientific discipline, which aims at measuring the complete set of metabolites within an organism, the metabolome, is non-targeted metabolomics. This thesis aims at elucidating the influence of environmental stress factors on the primary and secondary metabolism of wild type Populus x canescens (grey poplar), a naturally occurring hybrid, and its non-isoprene emitting mutants generated by RNA interference. Non-targeted metabolomics using high resolution mass-spectrometers, such as the ICR-FT/MS and the UPLC-qToF-MS, have been utilized in the present thesis studying the metabolic response of grey poplars to (i) high ultaviolet-B irradiation, (ii) knock-down of isoprene synthase, and (iii) to leaf herbivory with and without ectomycorrhiza. Multivariate statistics and mass-difference analysis enabled the extraction and visualization of specific and comprehensive metabolic perturbations for an enhanced phenotypic description. In summary, this thesis provides a comprehensive overview how high resolution non-targeted metabolomics is efficiently used to deepen our understanding of plant metabolic adaption to environmental stimuli.Die Pappel zählt zu den schnellwachsenden Baumarten und ist daher perfekt geeignet für die Produktion von Biotreibstoff, Holz und Fasern. Jedoch wird die Ausbeute von Pappelplantagen von negativen Umwelteinflüssen stark beeinträchtigt. Ein weiterer Nachteil ist, dass Pappeln starke Isopren Emitter sind. Isopren ist eine flüchtige organische Verbindung, welche die Bildung von Ozon und sekundären Aerosolen in der Troposphäre begünstigt. Genetisch veränderte nicht Isopren emittierende Pappeln wären eine perfekte Alternative für die Produktion von Biomasse. Allerdings erfüllt Isopren wichtige Funktionen unter Stressbedingungen und es ist daher unklar wie sich der Verlust von Isopren auf die Fitness und Wuchsleistung der Pappel auswirkt. Metabolite befinden sind am Nächsten zum zellulären Phänotyp und sind das direkte Resultat von Änderungen in der Gen-, Transkript- und Proteinexpression. Die wissenschaftliche Disziplin welche sich mit der Messung des gesamten Metaboloms in einem Organismus beschäftigt ist die ungerichtete Metabolomik. Das Ziel dieser Doktorarbeit ist es den Einfluss von verschiedenen Umwelteinflüssen auf den Primär- und Sekundärstoffwechsel der Graupappel (Populus x canescens), einem natürlich vorkommendem Hybrid, und deren nicht Isopren emittierenden Mutanten, die über RNA Interferenz erzeugt wurden zu untersuchen. Dabei werden ungerichtete Metabolom Analysen mit hochauflösenden Massenspektrometern, wie dem ICR-FT/MS und dem UPLC-qToF-MS, verwendet, um die metabolische Antwort der Graupappel (i) zu hoher ultravioletter Strahlung (UV-B, 290-315 nm), (ii) dem Fehlen der Isopren Synthase, (iii) dem Einfluß von Blattherbivoren mit und ohne Mykorrhizierung der Wurzel zu untersuchen. Zur Identifikation von spezifischen und globalen Stoffwechseländerungen wird die Multivariate Statistik zusammen mit der Massendifferenz Analyse angewandt. Diese Dissertation zeigt wie man die ungerichtete Metabolomik mit hochauflösenden Massenspektrometern effizient für die Untersuchung des Pflanzenstoffwechsels verwenden kann, um unser Wissen über die metabolische Stressantwort zu erweitern

    From « reminiscences » to « poetic pictures » : Sturm und Drang and sentimental trend in Karl Philipp Moritz’ work

    No full text
    La découverte d’œuvres du Sturm und Drang et de la tendance sentimentale (allemande et anglaise) fut pour le jeune K. Ph. Moritz une expérience déterminante, aussi bien pour le développement de sa personnalité que pour ses débuts comme écrivain. Nous avons entrepris d’étudier les différentes « traces » laissées par cette littérature dans les écrits de l’auteur, ainsi que leur évolution, notamment dans le cadre d’une pratique de l’intertextualité transformant de simples « réminiscences » littéraires en procédés d’écriture maîtrisés, voire même en « tableaux poétiques ». Nous analysons tout d’abord la réception du Sturm und Drang et de la tendance sentimentale par Anton Reiser (« double » du jeune Moritz) comme lecteur, poète et spectateur, réception « mise en scène » par l’auteur dans son roman autobiographique Anton Reiser. Nous tentons ensuite de montrer comment Moritz, entre 1780 et 1790, prend de la distance avec « l’enthousiasme » caractérisant sa réception de jeunesse de ces courants, sur lesquels il pose désormais un regard « éclairé » et objectif, depuis son point de vue d’écrivain, de critique littéraire et de psychologue empirique des « Lumières tardives », rejetant l’outrance dans le tragique, critiquant la Schwärmerei et observant les « maladies de l’âme ». Enfin, nous consacrons notre dernière partie au point de vue « esthétique » depuis lequel Moritz considère certaines œuvres du « temps des génies » (particulièrement Les Souffrances du jeune Werther), qui trouvent également leur place dans la théorie littéraire de l’auteur (exposée dans plusieurs écrits publiés après son séjour en Italie, entre 1792 et 1794), et dans sa pratique de la description de paysages.To discover works from the Sturm und Drang (« Storm and stress ») movement and from the sentimental trend (German and British) was a determining experience to the young Karl Philipp Moritz, for the development of his personality as well as for the beginning of his career as a writer. The present study aims at researching the « traces » left by this literature in Moritz’ work, and their evolution, in particular through intertextuality, which transforms simple literary « reminiscences » into mastered literary techniques, even into « poetic pictures ». First we analyse the reception of the Sturm und Drang and of Sentimentalism by Anton Reiser (« double » of Moritz in his youth) as reader, poet and spectator, reception « represented » by Moritz in his autobiographical novel Anton Reiser. We then examine how the author, between 1780 and 1790, distances himself from his former « enthusiastic » reception of those literary trends: from now on, he considers them from his « enlightened » and objective point of view as a novelist, a dramatist, a critic and an empirical psychologist of the « Late Enlightenment », rejecting excesses in tragedy, criticising the Schwärmerei and studying the « diseases of the soul ». The last part of our study is devoted to the « aesthetic » point of view, from which Moritz considers some works from the sentimental trend and from the Sturm und Drang (in particular The Sorrows of the Young Werther), which have also found a place in the literary theory of the author (expounded in several writings published between 1792 and 1794, after Moritz’ stay in Italy) and in his pratice of landscape description
