In their natural environment, plants are generally confronted with multiple co-occurring stresses. However, the interaction between stresses is not well known and transcriptomic data in response to combined stresses remain scarce. This study aims at characterizing the interaction between transcriptomic responses to biotic stress and nitrogen (N) limitation. Plants were grown in low or full N, infected or not with Erwinia amylovora (Ea) and plant gene expression was analyzed through microarray and qRT-PCR. Most Ea-responsive genes had the same profile (induced/repressed) in response to Ea in low and full N. In response to stress combination, one third of modulated transcripts responded in a manner that could not be deduced from their response to each individual stress. Many defense-related genes showed a prioritization of their response to biotic stress over their response to N limitation, which was also observed using Pseudomonas syringae as a second pathosystem. Our results indicate an interaction between transcriptomic responses to N and biotic stress. A small fraction of transcripts was prioritized between antagonistic responses, reflecting a preservation of the plant defense program under N limitation. Furthermore, this interaction also led to a complex and specific response in terms of metabolism and cellular homeostasis-associated genes.
