Abstract
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation directly affects plants and microorganisms, but also alters the species-specific interactions between them. The distinct bands of UV radiation, UV-A, UV-B, and UV-C have different effects on plants and their associated microorganisms. While UV-A and UV-B mainly affect morphogenesis and phototropism, UV-B and UV-C strongly trigger secondary metabolite production. Short wave (<350 nm) UV radiation negatively affects plant pathogens in direct and indirect ways. Direct effects can be ascribed to DNA damage, protein polymerization, enzyme inactivation and increased cell membrane permeability. UV-C is the most energetic radiation and is thus more effective at lower doses to kill microorganisms, but by consequence also often causes plant damage. Indirect effects can be ascribed to UV-B specific pathways such as the UVR8-dependent upregulated defense responses in plants, UV-B and UV-C upregulated ROS accumulation, and secondary metabolite production such as phenolic compounds. In this review, we summarize the physiological and molecular effects of UV radiation on plants, microorganisms and their interactions. Considerations for the use of UV radiation to control microorganisms, pathogenic as well as non-pathogenic, are listed. Effects can be indirect by increasing specialized metabolites with plant pre-treatment, or by directly affecting microorganisms.
Introduction
Life on Earth is exposed to the light spectrum ranging from ultraviolet-B (UV-B) to infrared wavelengths (295–2500 nm), hereafter referred to as natural radiation. The ultraviolet (UV) part of the electromagnetic spectrum comprises three classes: UV-C (200–280 nm), UV-B (280–315 nm) and UV-A (315–400 nm) with only UV-B and UV-A reaching the earth’s surface. Radiation with wavelengths below 290 nm declines to undetectable levels (Schäfer and Nagy, 2006). Although UV radiation is only a minor fraction of the sunlight reaching Earth’s surface, it causes significant biological effects on organisms which can affect plant-phyllosphere interactions, and indirectly plant-rhizosphere interactions, with most studies performed on UV-B (Robson et al., 2015; ).
Land plants, fungi, and bacteria have several fundamental characteristics in common. While growing, they have minimal possibilities for rapid long-distance displacement and therefore they usually adapt their growth and metabolism to incoming light with functionally overlapping pigments. Plants and microorganisms most often occur in the same terrestrial ecosystems with an equivalent natural climatic environment. The plant phyllosphere gets exposed to UV radiation but the optical properties – as determined by the architecture – of plants, fungi and bacteria differ. Plants have structurally organized multilayer tissues throughout their life cycle, fungi usually have mono-layered mycelia (with fruiting bodies as multi-layered exceptions), and bacteria exhibit significantly less complex organization, as single cells or biofilms. Hence the effect and impact of UV radiation on these organisms will be fundamentally different, ranging from biomolecule damage to secondary metabolite production (Table 1). Interestingly, these UV induced effects are usually dependent on the radiation intensity and developmental stages (Moreira-Rodriguez et al., 2017). UV irradiation has the potency to redirect the carbon flux resulting in changes in several classes of primary and secondary metabolites (recently often referred to as specialized metabolites) such as carotenoids, phenolics, glucosinolates and even chlorophylls, with associated effects in the phyllosphere (Katerova et al., 2012; Mewis et al., 2012; Heinze et al., 2018; Vandenbussche et al., 2018). Some of the specialized metabolites produced by plants in response to UV relate with defense responses and interactions with phyllosphere components (; Mewis et al., 2012). Moreover, specialized metabolite accumulation is often ascribed to hormonal changes in the plants, especially due to an increased expression of genes of the salicylic acid (SA) and jasmonate (JA) pathways, suggesting the stimulation of defense mechanisms that potentially impact microorganisms and other leaf dwellers (Vanhaelewyn et al., 2016a; Vandenbussche et al., 2018). Much like it is the case in other eukaryotes, light and other irradiation, including the UV range, have a very diverse impact on filamentous fungal development and metabolism (Tisch and Schmoll, 2010). The UV related changes in fungal development and metabolism are orchestrated by a set of specific photosignaling pathways.

UV perception and responses across organisms.
Plants, fungi, and bacteria have similar and distinct UV responses, potentially influencing their internal relations. N.A., not applicable; ?, not reported. ↑: increases; ↓: decreases.
Here we review how plants, fungi and bacteria perceive and respond to UV with focus on plants and plant-microbe interactions. An overview of their response mechanisms is presented, and the consequences for their growth and survival are discussed and summarized in Table 1. While we do contemplate on the potential of the application of UV in plant protection, we primarily provide a broad overview on the effects and possibilities of UV radiation. Despite the increasing evidence for the occurrence and potential role of Cyanobacteria in the phyllosphere (Rigonato et al., 2012; Singh et al., 2019), they will be kept out of consideration in this manuscript. This review provides a global overview and is a basis to guide scientists and growers to make educated decisions for UV treatments in various applications.
Detection of Ultraviolet Radiation
Living organisms developed photoreceptors in order to respond to light and optimize growth. Photoreceptors absorb specific wavelengths of radiation, triggering a cascade of events, leading to biological responses. Here we illustrate how plants and microorganisms perceive UV and summarize subsequent downstream responses. Plants have a wide set of photoreceptors, each of which has a specific absorption spectrum. Some of the known photoreceptors absorb in the ultraviolet region. UV responses are ascribed to the sensing by cryptochromes (CRYs) (), phototropins (PHOTs) (; Vandenbussche et al., 2014), phytochrome A (PHYA) (Shinomura et al., 1996) and UVB-RESISTANCE 8 (UVR8) as a UV-B specific sensor (Heijde and Ulm, 2012). To date, no reports on a UV-C specific photoreceptor exist. Nevertheless, it is tempting to speculate that some of the known photoreceptors such as UVR8 and CRYs can be triggered by UV-C given their absorbance in that part of the spectrum (Figure 1), thus possibly playing a role in plant responses to UV-C (Table 1). The absorption spectrum due to chromophores in a protein context and the action spectrum of photoreceptors are very often correlated. Therefore, one can assume that photoreceptors will be triggered at any wavelength within the absorption range of the chromophore. Indeed, while phototropins are mostly regarded as blue light photoreceptors, they do display activity at wavelengths lower than 350 nm (Vandenbussche et al., 2014). Furthermore, homology of CRYs which function in the UV-A region with photolyases, is indicative for CRY activity in the UV region. It is however, noteworthy that the absorption and action spectrum for some photoreceptors are not documented below 320 nm (Figure 1) and therefore effects in the lower wavelengths, mediated by these photoreceptors cannot be excluded.
FIGURE 1
Comparable to plants, many fungi are exposed to natural radiation during their life cycle. Despite not being photoautotrophs, they have developed mechanisms to perceive and respond to radiation from the UV to the far-red part of the spectrum. Historically, Phycomyces photobiology has received a lot of attention, including its responses in the UV-range. While positive phototropism is reported for UV-A, Phycomyces bends away from UV-B and UV-C. These opposite responses are genetically independent (Martin-Rojas et al., 1995). Importantly, each type of UV can have major differences in responses given that UV-A activates vegetative spores of Phycomyces while they are killed by UV-C (
Also bacterial survival and growth can be heavily affected by UV radiation but negative impacts rely on the diverse protection strategies bacteria developed to cope with UV-stress. UV sensitivity of bacteria is often linked with the habitat they are living in. Especially, the effect of UV radiation and UV tolerance mechanisms have been well studied in Cyanobacteria since these photosynthetic organisms cannot avoid solar energy (Rastogi et al., 2014). Finally, UV-C radiation, primarily at 245 nm, is well-known for its killing activity on microorganisms and is therefore often used for disinfection purposes (Urban et al., 2016).
UVR8 Serves as a UV-B Photoreceptor in Plants Under Natural Irradiation
Plant UVR8, with tryptophans acting as chromophores, absorbs in both the UV-B and UV-C part of the spectrum (Figure 1A;
CRYs Act as Universal Blue and UV Photoreceptors With Similar Functions
Cryptochromes are pterin and flavin based blue light photoreceptors, well-documented in animals, plants, fungi and bacteria. Interestingly, in plants CRY1 and CRY2 both absorb in the UV-A range with CRY1 even absorbing UV-B wavelengths (Figure 1B). Therefore, it is generally accepted that cryptochromes mediate both blue and UV responses alike. Upon activation, CRY proteins are phosphorylated, form homodimers and undergo a conformational change, exposing the C-terminus, allowing physical interactions with signaling factors such as COP1 (Yang et al., 2000, 2001; Wang et al., 2001; Sang et al., 2005) and the COP1/SPA complex (Holtkotte et al., 2017). CRYs share sequence similarity with photolyases (see further), but are – with the exception of CRY-DASH (CRY3) – missing photolyase activity necessary to repair UV-induced DNA damage (Sancar and Sancar, 1987;
Cryptochromes appear universal photoreceptors, present in most, if not all cellular organisms and in fungi they constitute a large class with combined or unique signaling and photolyase function [Reviewed in
Bacteria also hold several flavin based photoreceptors. To date, such proteins have been mainly classified as blue light receptors, even though their absorption spectra often show peaks into shorter wavelengths, indicating possible activation by UV-A. Some bacteria have CRY-DASH proteins, which have MTHF as antenna pigment for UV, transferring energy to FAD (Saxena et al., 2005; Moon et al., 2012). CRY activation in bacteria can affect motility and attachment, while blue light sensing using FAD (BLUF) proteins were found to control motility, adhesion, and production of exopolysaccharides and biosurfactants (Kraiselburd et al., 2017).
Light-, Oxygen, or Voltage Domains (LOV Domains) Are Universal UV-A and UV-B Photoreceptors
Phototropins were extensively investigated in relation with blue light phototropic responses but also absorb in the UV-A and UV-B region (Okajima et al., 2011; Figure 1C) consistent with the action spectra (
Also in fungi, blue/UV-A photoreceptors that contain a LOV domain have been characterized. Most prominent is the White Collar Complex (WCC), a complex formed by WC1 and WC2 and named after the original mutation found in N. crassa with white mycelium and pigmented conidia. In N. crassa, the LOV domain of WC-1 binds FAD, allowing photoperception (
In general, many plant-associated bacteria have blue light receptors. Plant pathogenic Ralstonia, Pseudomonas and Xanthomonas have LOV and/or BLUF proteins (Mandalari et al., 2013; Ricci et al., 2015; Kraiselburd et al., 2017). Although the effects of these proteins have been mainly studied in blue light, because of their absorbance properties (
Phytochromes Potentially Act as Minor UV Photoreceptors
Phytochromes sense red light with a bilin chromophore (Sharrock, 2008). The chromophore occurs in two interchangeable conformations, namely Pr and Pfr which have different spectral properties with major differences in the red region of the spectrum (Figure 1D). Pr absorbs red, and changes conformation, thereby shifting its absorption maximum into the far-red, leading to the Pfr form. This process is reversible upon absorbing far-red light. Besides red light detection, phytochromes also absorb in the UV-A and UV-B regions (Figure 1D) but there is limited evidence on UV induced phenotypes. Examples are UV-A-dependent chloroplast gene transcription in green leaves (
Also, for microorganisms, phytochromes do not seem to play an important role in UV detection and responses. Fungal phytochromes were initially discovered in the two model fungi N. crassa and A. nidulans with biliverdin as most likely natural chromophore and are now considered present throughout the Fungi kingdom (
Dna Damage
The exposure or application of organisms to UV light comes with risks. Besides active sensing and signal induction to UV radiation by photoreceptors, some UV induced morphological responses can be ascribed to the interaction of the high energetic UV radiation with molecules. In the UV spectrum, UV-A irradiation of plant tissues has been shown to have little DNA damaging effects because UV-A is not absorbed by DNA (Supplementary Figure 1a). However, DNA damage can still be indirectly caused by ROS generation issuing from photosensitizing reactions, especially by highly reactive singlet oxygen (1O2) (
UV Induces Several Types of DNA Damage
Ultraviolet-B is very potent to cause chemical modifications and DNA damage in natural conditions (Sinha and Hader, 2002;
Plants Have a Plethora of DNA Repair Possibilities
The major pathway for UV-B induced repair is the photorepair or photoreactivation. By absorbing blue/UV-A radiation, CPD photolyases and 6-4PP photolyases can monomerize the UV-B induced dimers. These photolyases specifically bind to DNA lesions and remove the CPDs and 6-4PPs (Sancar, 2003;
Fungi Have Their Own DNA Repair Mechanisms
Among plant pathogens, the photodamage responses in B. cinerea have received quite some attention (Table 1). Like other fungi, B. cinerea has a functional WCC (
Bacteria Can Also Survive UV Radiation
Comparable to plants and fungi, bacteria also possess photoreactivation properties (Kelner, 1949), which rely on rapid and efficient light dependent DNA repair by photolyase activity (Sancar, 1996). These photolyases can also be activated by blue light, as well as UV-A, owing to their pterin and flavin chromophore. Apart from photolyase activity, bacteria, including plant pathogens, have nucleotide excision repair which functions in the absence of light (Kim and Sundin, 2001;
Not All UV Inflicted Damage Can Be Repaired
Given the strong genotoxic nature of UV-C radiation and its detrimental effects on all types of microorganisms, including fungi, bacteria, and their spores, it is frequently used for its germicidal potential. In general, the most resistant structures are fungal and bacterial spores, which need large doses of UV-C to be inactivated, while non-sporulating bacteria are more sensitive (
UV Regulated Specialized Metabolites and Hormones, Leading to Augmented Plant-Microbe Interactions
Specialized metabolites play a major role in plant-environment interactions by acting as antioxidants, signaling molecules, protective compounds against abiotic stress and pathogens, herbivore feeding deterrents and even pollinator attractants. To cope with UV-induced photodamage, organisms developed an arsenal of photoprotective molecules such as melanins (humans and animals), flavonoids (plants), mycosporines (fungi) and mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs, Cyanobacteria, algae, and animals) (Sinha et al., 2007). The accumulation of specialized metabolites is particularly well studied upon UV-B radiation. Plant specialized metabolites are divided in three chemically distinct groups: phenolics, terpenes and nitrogen-containing compounds. The most relevant specialized metabolites that affect plant-microbe interactions in a UV context are listed below.
Phenolics Are Aromatic Benzene Ring Compounds With One or More Hydroxyl Groups Produced by Plants Mainly for Protection Against Stress
The phenolics group consists of nearly 10,000 individual compounds with a large chemical and biological diversification. Flavonoids are one of the largest classes of plant phenolics. The basic carbon skeleton consists of 15 carbons arranged in two aromatic rings, connected by a three-carbon bridge. Flavonoids are classified in different groups, mainly based on the degree of oxidation of the three-carbon bridge. Here we focus on flavones, flavonols isoflavonoids and anthocyanins. Flavones and flavonols are present in flowers and leaves of all green plants and generally absorb radiation of shorter wavelengths, with peaks in the 240–280 nm and 315–400 nm range (Supplementary Figure 1b;
Besides the sunscreen and antioxidant function to protect underlying photosynthetic tissues from damage, several types of flavonoids display antifungal, antibacterial and antiviral activities (van der Watt and Pretorius, 2001;
Besides flavonoids, sinapates also accumulate at ecologically meaningful doses of UV-B. Sinapates are building blocks for lignin and can increase resistance of Arabidopsis to B. cinerea in a UVR8 dependent way (
Flavonoid induction by UV-A is likely mainly induced through the CRY1 photoreceptor, providing that functional CRY1 is essential for chalcone synthase (CHS) expression (
FIGURE 2

Ultraviolet induced flavonoid accumulation is UVR8 and CRY dependent. UV-B activates UVR8 (Kaiserli and Jenkins, 2007; Yin et al., 2016) which leads to HY5 accumulation and thus diverse flavonoid biosynthesis via CHS, CHI, FH3, and FLS1 (Hideg et al., 2013). CRYs are activated via UV-A and regulate HY5, causing flavonoid accumulation in a similar way as described for UVR8 but also DFR regulation was reported for UV-A conditions (Morales et al., 2013). R-groups are indicated for substances mentioned throughout the text. Red dashed arrows indicate induction of specific enzymes by HY5.
Terpenes Are Very Volatile and Constitute the Largest Class of Specialized Metabolites
Terpenes are generally synthesized from acetyl-CoA. Importantly, some terpenes can be considered as primary metabolites since they have well defined roles in plants, for example gibberellins (diterpenes), brassinosteroids and abscisic acid, some of which are discussed below. Carotenoids are tetraterpenes that function as accessory pigments during photosynthesis and protect against photooxidation. Carotenoids are strongly induced upon UV exposure. Several plant induced carotenoids were ascribed potent anti-Helicobacter pylori activity, namely violaxanthin, luteoxanthin, neoxanthin, antheraxanthin, and lutein (Molnar et al., 2010). Some terpenes can act as a repellent for insects and animals (Isman, 2006; Michaelakis et al., 2009; Tholl, 2015). Recently, terpenes are receiving more attention in the Cannabis industry for their “entourage effect” for medical and olfactory properties. Monoterpene synthase (QH6) is induced by HY5 (
Associated with their terrestrial life, many fungi have acquired the capability of synthesizing compounds that cause pigmentation. Fungi produce carotenoids and 1,8-DHN-melanin-type or DOPA-melanin (
Many plant phyllosphere bacteria, e.g., Clavibacter michiganensis, Curtobacteria, and Methylobacteria, are known to be chromogenic and UV tolerant (Sundin and Jacobs, 1999; Yoshida et al., 2017). In Methylobacteria, the UV-absorbing molecule is similar to avobenzone, a compound used in commercial sun-blockers (Yoshida et al., 2017). Although no photoprotecting UV-absorbing pigment has been described for P. syringae, a member of the same genus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa can accumulate pyocyanin, which has strong absorption in short wave UV-B and UV-C. Furthermore, many P. syringae strains fluoresce green and yellow under UV radiation, due to accumulation of siderophores that usually absorb in the UV-B and UV-A range (
Nitrogen-Containing Compounds Such as Alkaloids and Glucosinolates Are Well-Known Antiherbivore Defense Metabolites
Alkaloids and glucosinolates can be toxic to humans while others are shown valuable as medicine. Most of these metabolites are synthesized from common amino acids. The primary plant benefit of UV-B dependent upregulation of alkaloids may be related to their ability to quench singlet oxygen and thus confer protection against this toxic photosynthetic by-product (Larson and Marley, 1984). Alkaloids are generally water insoluble organic heterocyclic nitrogen compounds, some of which display antimicrobial functions (
Glucosinolates (GS) or mustard oil glycosides break down to release defensive substances. GS are generally found in the Brassicaceae and related families. GS are located within the vacuoles and are physically separated from β-thioglucosidase enzymes (myrosinases). Upon disruption of the plant tissue, myrosinases and GS get in contact and hydrolysis occurs, generating sulfate, glucose and an aglycone moiety. The aglycone moiety is unstable and is converted in either thiocyanates (TCs), nitriles and isothiocyanates (ITCs) (
In response to UV, fungi and Cyanobacteria produce mycosporine and mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs), colorless, water-soluble compounds composed of a cycloheximine or cyclohexenone chromophore which is conjugated with a nitrogen or imino alcohol substituent (Sinha et al., 2007). Mycosporines and MAAs are UV-absorbing pigments and have a role as “sunscreen compounds” (Oren and Gunde-Cimerman, 2007) and potentially may serve as antioxidant molecules. Besides protection to UV, there is no information available whether these molecules affect plant-microbe interactions. Also fungal mycotoxins can be affected by UV radiation and have been associated with UV tolerance including, e.g., aflatoxin and citrinin produced by Aspergillus flavus and Penicillium verrucosum, respectively (
UV-Augmented Plant Hormones
Finally, besides the defense-related role of some UV induced specialized metabolites, there are numerous reports on the role of plant hormones against biotic stress. UV-B was studied extensively in relation to all plant hormones and was recently reviewed in Vanhaelewyn et al. (2016a). The two main plant hormones for defense responses against microorganisms are SA and JA. SA-signaling is commonly reported as important against biotrophic pathogens and is often associated with the induction of ROS (Herrera-Vasquez et al., 2015). There are numerous reports of SA biosynthesis increase and plant defense under UV-C and/or UV-B stress, in Arabidopsis (Yao et al., 2011; Mintoff et al., 2015), pepper (Mahdavian et al., 2008), tobacco (Yalpani et al., 1994; Yao et al., 2011), barley (
Perspectives on Practical Use of UV in Plant Protection
Ultraviolet treatment of plants can lead to increased resistance to microorganisms in diverse ways. Besides the direct damaging effects of short-wave UV radiation on organism’s biomolecules, the induction of specialized plant metabolites and hormones in response to UV can also affect the plant-microbe interactions.
For direct effects on microorganisms to be effective, the radiation needs to reach the microorganism one wants to eliminate. High turbidity in liquids can render UV-C sterilization less effective (Jones et al., 2014). In contrast to UV-A and UV-B, UV-C is most potent to reduce infection pressure of plant pathogens by a process analogous to surface sterilization. Short treatments with UV-C kills microorganisms, while the plant remains unharmed. Similar to UV-C treatment, some pathogens like Cucumber powdery mildew (Podosphaera xanthii) are suppressed by exposing cucumber plants daily for 10 min to UV-B. Interestingly, the observed suppression effect is most significant when only UV-B is used with no background light and when UV-B is combined with red light exposure. The effect was least significant when UV-A or blue light was administered together with UV-B. Given that no additional suppression was observed when treating plants to UV-B, prior to inoculation, the observed effect is mainly directly on the pathogen, rather than induced plant resistance (Suthaparan et al., 2014). From the above we can infer that presence of UV-A prior to or during exposure, in the case of stimulation of photoprotective pigments, or during and after exposure, in the case of photoreactivation, can increase bacterial survival to UV radiation. UV-C is thus most effective if no UV-A (or blue) is present in the radiation source of use, and a subsequent red light or dark period is included. Epiphytic bacteria are more likely to be affected by the radiation than endophytic bacteria (e.g., P. syringae does both), because of poor penetration of UV-C radiation in plant tissues. The practical implementations in greenhouses and in the field are still under development or refinement [Clean light, Netherlands; UV-robot project PSKW (Zant et al., 2018)]. Also for in vitro tissue culture, possibilities exist using UV-C to lower infection pressure in growth rooms. Use for in vitro control of microorganisms on the plant by UV will depend on the transparency of the material of the container in which the plants are cultivated (Rao et al., 2011).
Perhaps the most promising for future applications changing plant-microbe interactions is the modulation of UV-B in the spectrum of the plant environment. The control of UVR8 in plants, and the associated specialized metabolism, combined with detrimental effects of UV-B radiation in microorganisms could provide a part of a steering mechanism for optimal plant growth and defense, which would rely on the capability of the plant of adapting much better to UV-B than the microorganisms. With the quickly developing UV-emitting LED light market, it is ever more possible to apply UV treatments to horticultural crops for various reasons. One major advantage of using UV-B supplementation is that the “treatment” can be instantaneously terminated, in contrast to the lasting impact of chemical plant growth regulators once taken up by the plant. However, the positive effects of UV to induce plant resistance should be taken with caution since some of the induced specialized metabolites which ward off microorganisms and insects may also be undesirable for human consumption, e.g., bitter taste.
We can thus conclude that UV-A is mainly neutral or even beneficial for the microorganisms, including the colonization of plants by plant pathogens, for DNA repair and processes associated with efficient infection. By contrast, UV-B and UV-C exposure leads to detrimental effects, often resulting in the death of the microbe and thus interesting for application in horticulture, provided the plant or beneficial organisms are damaged less by UV than its pathogen. Besides these detrimental effects on microorganisms, the upregulation of specialized metabolites in plants and microorganisms can affect the plant-microbe interactions in various ways. The list of advantages versus disadvantages on the use of different UV treatments in horticulture needs to be evaluated depending on a species and purpose-specific basis.
