Working model. Results from the present work indicate that RNAi::MtNIA1/2 and 35S::GSNOR transformed roots are, respectively, more susceptible and more resistant to A. euteiches (1). NR activity and NO3- content were impacted by GSNOR overexpression, indicating a possible effect of GSNOR on basal NO3- transport/assimilation (2). NO3- availability in the medium causes quantitative modulation of ROS/RNS/NO content and affects their balance (3). Infection by A. euteiches decreases root NO3- content (4) and induces higher ROS levels (5). According to the literature superoxyde (O2⋅-), by reacting with NO to form peroxynitrite, can influence the concentration of NO available for signaling (6). : GSNO was shown to regulate NO3- uptake through transcriptional regulation of NRT2.1 (Frungillo et al., 2014).
