Abstrakt: Pigeon pea, vital for farmers in semi-arid regions, suffers yield losses from Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium udum. This study demonstrates that introducing the rice oxalate oxidase 4 (Osoxo4) gene significantly boosts wilt resistance. Enhanced resistance in transgenic lines was confirmed through gene expression analysis, enzyme activity assays, biochemical assessments, histochemical staining and in vitro and in vivo bioassays, including spore germination tests. We performed proteomics and metabolomics analyses to investigate mechanisms of enhanced resistance. LC-MS/MS-based label-free proteomics of wilt-infected transgenic and wild-type pigeon pea leaves identified 2386 proteins, with 1048 showing significant abundance changes-738 upregulated and 310 downregulated-in transgenic plants. Notably, proteins such as HMG1/2-like protein, Putative nucleosome assembly protein C364.06, DEAD-box ATP-dependent RNA helicase 3, Lipoxygenase 1, Annexin D1 and Annexin-like protein RJ4 were significantly upregulated, indicating their potential role in developing wilt-resistant cultivars. Metabolomic analysis showed elevated levels of amino acids, sugars, oxalic acid, sugar alcohols and myo-inositol in transgenic pigeon pea, with upregulated pathways in Sugar and Starch Metabolism and Inositol Phosphate Metabolism, indicating enhanced resilience to wilt stress. This study highlights unique regulatory proteins and metabolites, offering insights into stress adaptation and guiding genetic interventions for breeding disease-resistant pigeon pea varieties.
