We study the molecular interaction between different microbes and plants, focusing on (a) bacteria and (b) plant viruses. If you are interested to join us, please let us know!

Bacterial pathogenesis

The team is interested to learn how the different pathovars of the bacterium Xanthomonas campestris have adapted to colonize different plant tissue structures, i.e (i) 'the vasculature via hydathodes' - organelles present on the leaf margin - or (ii) 'the apoplastic space via stomata'. As model system, we use the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. The lab uses advanced techniques like Phenomics, pan-genome analysis, genome-wide association studies, forward genetics screens and functional protein studies on bacterial virulence factors.

To this means, we developed a robust disease assay for X. campestris that stimulates ‘hydathode guttation and subsequent bacterial entry via re-uptake of guttation fluid (Van Hulten et al., 2019). This method allows us to dissect the genetic basis for bacterial ingress, both on the plant and bacterium side. We study the role of hydathodes as a passive and active immune barriere against bacteria. To study the disease progression in time, we have developped a bioluminescent reporter system that allows us to track the bacterial invasion via hydathodes and subsequent systemic spread in the vasculature. To image the immune response, we  develop fluorescent reporter lines for the hydathode epithem tissue (Paauw et al., 2023) to compare its  immune response to stomatal and apoplast immunity. In addition, these markers help us to visualize the integrity of the tissue.

Plant virology

We study Geminiviruses and Tospoviruses on Solanaceae, both Nicotiana benthamiana and tomato. Geminiviruses are ssDNA viruses that depend on the host DNA replication machinery for the replication of their viral DNA. We study the protein interaction between the essential viral protein Rep and the plant DNA replication machinery, in particular the DNA-clamp protein PCNA. Together with Wageningen University, we have performed a project to identify novel pro-viral factors for the Tospovirus Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV). We recently started a new collaboration studying two plant viruses that jointly cause Lettuce big-vein disease - a disease that is prominent in autumn and spring when the disease symptoms become visible as soon as the night temperature drops.

SUMO as suppressor of plant innate immunity

Key to the survival of any organism is the ability to defend itself. This defense response relies on transcriptional reprogramming in the first hours after invasion, and often results in programmed cell death and the accumulation of anti-microbial compounds. Our group revealed that SUMO acts as suppressor of  plant immunity (Van den Burg et al., 2010).  We found also that SUMO acts as 'hand-break' on plant growth via the ubiquitin E3 ligase COP1. This work also revealed that SUMO conjugation can trigger nuclear body formation, a process that closely resembles liquid-liquid phase seperations. In 2016, we reported on an evolutionary model of birth-and-death of  SUMO paralogs in plants (Hammoudi et al., 2016). This model revealed that the paralog SUMO3 only recently evolved in the Brassicaceae plant family, while  SUMO5 appears to be of ancient origin, as it ancestral gene emerged in hexaploidy event Gamma (that is near the base of the dicot species radiation ±120-135 mya). This evolutionary model elucidated as well that the Arabidopsis genes SUMO4/6 were only recently pseudogenized from an ancestral SUMO isoform.  In a more recent effort, we demonstrated that SUMO impacts growth via two mechanisms at elevated ambient temperature (Hammoudi et al., 2018, Hammoudi, Beerens et al., 2021).

Other team leaders in Molecular Plant Pathology

Molecular Plant Pathology is headed by Prof. dr. Martijn Rep.  Within the University of Amsterdam, we are part of the Research theme Green Life Sciences within the Swammerdam Institute for Life Sciences (SILS), which consists of five disciplines: Molecular Plant Pathology, Plant Physiology, Plant Cell Biology, Plant Development & (Epi)Genetics, Plant Hormone Biology.  Our researchers particpate in the education program of the MSc track Green Life Sciences (MSc Biological sciences) of our Faculty of Science. We  participate in the Dutch graduate school Experimental Plant Sciences, which acts as a training and network platform for the PhD students and postdocs.

Dr. Harrold A van den Burg is a molecular plant pathologist interested in basic and applied biology of plant-associated microbes that cause diseases on plants. 

He graduated with a training in Biochemistry and Plant Pathology from Wageningen University (MSc Life Sciences, with distinction) in 1997. During his Ph.D. research (1997-2003) at Wageningen University, he discovered that fungal effectors act to shield the fungal cell wall by binding chitin (in the Laboratory of Phytopathology, Prof. Pierre JGM de Wit). For his postdoctoral research, Dr. van den Burg received a EU-Marie Curie fellowship to study Ubiquitin-dependent immune signaling in tomato (The Sainsbury Laboratory in Norwich (UK), Prof. Jonathan Jones).

In 2005, he was awared both an EMBO long-term fellowship and a NWO-Veni grant to develop a new research line at Molecular Plant Pathology in Amsterdam (with Dr. Frank LW Takken). This work initially focused on the role of the protein modification SUMO in plant immunity. In 2011, he started as Assistant professor, after receiving a NWO-Vidi fellowship, and he was promoted Associate professor in 2019.

The long-term research goal of Dr. Van den Burg is  to unravel pathogenicity strategies of bacteria and plant viruses and to translate this knowledge on important crop diseases into breeding solutions for growers. The work in the lab is supported by different grants from the Dutch government with the aim to boost knowledge transfer to the industry (e.g. Topsector T&U).

Since 2015 his group studies both Bacterial Pathogenesis and Plant Virology. The lab developed for this purpose advanced high throughput methods for real-time imaging of bacteria inside plants.

The work on bacterial pathogenesis is focussed on the host entry mechanisms by the bacterium Xanthomonas campestris, where the group compares Xanthomonas strains that infect only the vasculature with strains that exclusively infect the apoplast via stomata.

The studies on plant virology are focussed on identifying host proteins that are manipulated by viral proteins to unravel pathways and/or processes that are manipulated by specific plant viruses during replication. The group studies different DNA and RNA viruses (e.g. Geminiviruses, Tospoviruses).

In 2023 Harrold van den Burg has been appointed professor by special appointment of Phytopathology, with a special focus on plant virology at the University of Amsterdam (UvA)'s Faculty of Science (FNWI). This chair was established on behalf of Keygene N.V. and Stichting Food Valley.
