Concomitant increase of auxin-responsive factors ARF16 and ARF17, along with enhanced expression of ARF10 in resistant Sinapis alba compared with that in susceptible Brassica juncea upon challenge with Alternaria brassicicola, revealed that abscisic acid (ABA)-auxin crosstalk is a critical factor for resistance response. Here, we induced the ABA response through conditional expression of ARF10 in B. juncea using the A. brassicicola-inducible GH3.3 promoter. Induced ABA sensitivity caused by conditional expression of ARF10 in transgenic B. juncea resulted in tolerance against A. brassicicola and led to enhanced expression of several ABA-responsive genes without affecting the auxin biosynthetic gene expression. Compared with ABI3 and ABI4, ABI5 showed maximum upregulation in the most tolerant transgenic lines upon pathogen challenge. Moreover, elevated expression of ARF10 by different means revealed a direct correlation between ARF10 expression and the induction of ABI5 protein in B. juncea. Through in vitro DNA-protein experiments and chromosome immunoprecipitation using the ARF10 antibody, we demonstrated that ARF10 interacts with the auxin-responsive elements of the ABI5 promoter. This suggests that ARF10 may function as a modulator of ABI5 to induce ABA sensitivity and mediate the resistance response against A. brassicicola.
