Project description:Transcriptome changes were investigated for Euphorbia esula (leafy spurge) seeds with a focus on the effect of constant and diurnal fluctuating temperature on dormancy and germination. Leafy spurge seeds do not germinate when incubated for 21 days at 20°C constant temperatures, but nearly 30% germinate after 21 days under fluctuating temperatures 20:30°C (16:8 h). Incubation at 20°C for 21 followed by 20:30°C resulted in approximately 63% germination in about 10 days. A cDNA microarray representing approximately 22,000 unique sequences was used to profile transcriptome changes. Labeled cDNA was prepared from total RNA using the Alexa Fluor cDNA labeling kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) according to manufacture's protocols. Labeled cDNAs were hybridized to a custom made 23 K element microarray that contained 19,808 unigenes from the leafy spurge EST database and an additional 4,129 unigenes from a cassava EST database. A rolling circle dye swap hybridization scheme was used to compare gene expression between samples. There were three biological and two technical replications for each treatment. Microarray hybridization was visualized using a GenPix 4000B scanner (Axon Instruments/Molecular Devices Corp., Sunnyvale, CA) and spot intensities and background was quantified using GenPix Pro software. Hybridization intensities were log2 transformed, and arrays were centered and normalized against each other.

Project description:This submission contains the RNAseq data from one (just the study on paradormancy release) of several studies used to assemble the leafy spurge tranacriptome. These assembled transcrptome was built from 1) A study of leafy spurge crown buds through a time course for paradormancy release induced by excision of the aerial portion of the shoot (this study). 2) A study of leafy spurge crown buds through a seasonal dormancy time course where buds transitioned from paradoprmancy to endodormancy and then to ecodormancy (Series GSE71321). 3) A study identical to #2 above but where leafy spurge plants were first treated with glyphosate (Series GSE71406). 4) A previously submitted study (Series GSE56509) of leafy spurge shoots following treament with glyphosate was also used to assemble the transcriptome. The paradormancy study (#1) contained 4 time points (0hr, 6h, 1d, 3d) with 3 biological replicates at 0hr and 4 biological replicates at each of the other time points.

Project description:New shoot growth from underground adventitious buds of leafy spurge is critical for survival of this invasive perennial weed after episodes of severe abiotic stress. Because global climate change is expected to increase abiotic stress, such as dehydration, objectives of this study include examining the impact that dehydration stress has on molecular mechanisms associated with vegetative reproduction. Greenhouse plants were exposed to mild- (3-day), intermediate- (7-day), severe- (14-day) and extended- (21-day) dehydration treatments, prior to decapitation of aerial tissue and rehydration of soil to induce new vegetative shoot growth. Compared to well-watered control plants, mild-dehydration accelerated new vegetative shoot growth but intermediate- and severe-dehydration treatments both delayed and reduced shoot growth, and 21-day dehydration treatment inhibited initiation of new vegetative shoots and was considered a lethal treatment. Overall, transcriptome profiles revealed that 2109 genes were differentially-expressed (P<0.05) in crown buds in response to the various dehydration treatments. Sub-network enrichment analyses identified central hubs of over-represented genes involved in processes such as hormone responses and signaling (e.g., ABA, auxin, ethylene, GA, and JA), response to abiotic stress (DREB1A/2A) and light (PIF3), phosphorylation (CLV1, MPK3/4/6, SOS2), gene silencing (miRNA156/172a), circadian regulation (CRY2, LHY, PHYA/B), and flowering (AGL8/20, AP2, FLC). Further, results from this and previous studies highlight HY5, MAF3, MYB-like/RVE1 and RD22 as molecular markers for endodormancy in crown buds of leafy spurge. Early response to dehydration also highlighted involvement of upstream ethylene and jasmonate signaling, whereas longer-term dehydration impacted ABA signaling. The identification of conserved ABRE- and MYC-consensus, cis-acting elements in the promoter of a leafy spurge gene similar to Arabidopsis MYB-like/RVE1 (AT5G17300) implicates a potential role for ABA signaling in its dehydration-induced expression. Response of these molecular mechanisms to dehydration-stress provides insights on the ability of invasive perennial weeds to adapt and survive under harsh environments, which provide new insights for addressing future management practices. Changes in transcript abundance for underground adventitious buds of leafy spurge which were exposed various levels of dehydration stress (Day-3, -7, -14, -16, -21) are analysed relative to controls (Day-0).

Project description:Persistence of the invasive perennial weed leafy spurge is mainly attributed to seasonal production of underground adventitious buds (UABs), which undergo well-defined phases of dormancy (para-, endo- and eco-dormancy). These well-defined phases of dormancy also allow UABs of leafy spurge to survive extreme seasonal variations, including dehydration-stress. Consequently, objectives of this study include understanding the effects of dehydration-stress on vegetative reproduction, flowering competence, and transcript profiles at different phases of bud dormancy. The vegetative growth potential of UABs was monitored by removing the aerial portion of dehydration-stressed plants and re-watering the root system. Further, microarray analysis was used to follow transcriptome profiles to identify critical defense- and signaling-pathways at different phases of dormancy in UABs. Surprisingly, only 3 days of dehydration-stress is required to break the endodormant phase in UABs. In leafy spurge, vernalization of endodormant UABs has previously been shown to induce flower competence, while breaking of endodormancy via dehydration-stress did not induce floral induction. Thus, these two environmental treatments open a unique approach to independently dissect molecular mechanisms involved in endodormancy maintenance and floral competence. Bioinformatics analysis of transcriptome data helped to identify models and overlapping pathways. During endodormancy break, LEC1, PHOTOSYSTEM I RC, and brassinosteroids were identified as ooverlapping hubs of up-regulated genes, and DREB1A, CBF2, GPA1, MYC2, BHLH, BZIP, and flavonoids were identified as overlapping hubs of down-regulated genes. Additionally, key genes involved in metabolic activity, chromatin modification, and cross-talk between growth regulators were identified as playing a role during endodormancy maintenance. Plant material, controlled environmental treatments, and vegetative growth: Three-month-old paradormant leafy spurge plants grown in a greenhouse were acclimated for one week, under growth chamber conditions, prior to being subjected to a ramp-down in temperature (27 °C → 10 °C) and photoperiod (16 h → 8 h light) for 12 weeks to induce endodormancy, as previously established (Doğramacı et al. 2010; Foley et al. 2009). Endodormancy status was confirmed by comparing vegetative growth rates of plants with and without a ramp-down treatment. To study the effects of dehydration-stress on vegetative growth from UABs, water was withheld from endodormant plants up to 21 days. After dehydration for 0, 1-, 3-, 7-, 14-, and 21-days, the aerial portion of the plants were decapitated at the soil surface and vegetative growth and floral competence of UABs were monitored under growth-conducive conditions by re-watering the root system. Vegetative shoot growth from six plants was recorded weekly for four weeks, and results of four replications were analyzed using SAS 9.2 (SAS Institute, Cary, NC, 2008) software as described by Doğramacı et al. (2010). Microarray analysis: At the end of each treatment, crown buds were collected, and RNA extraction, cDNA synthesis, fluorescent labeling, microarray hybridization using ~23K element arrays, and spot intensity analyses were performed as previously described by Doğramacı et al. (2010). Based on unexpected vegetative growth results obtained from this study, only microarray data obtained from 0-, 1-, and 3-day dehydration-stressed endodormant UABs, which were compared with microarray data for endodormant, and flowering competent ecodormant UABs from our previous study (Doğramacı et al. 2010; GSE19217), were used for bioinformatics analyses. However, to merge the datasets from these two separate experiments, T-tests were first performed on microarray data obtained from endodormant UABs from each experiment, and differentially-expressed genes (p<0.005) were removed from the dataset (~5% of the spots). After removing the outliers, the two endodormant transcriptome data sets were grouped together and used as the baseline control for further ANOVA, T-tests and other analyses. Array normalization, statistical analyses and clustering of the dataset and Venn diagram generation were done using GeneMaths XT 5.1 software as previously described by Doğramacı et al. (2010).

Project description:Glyphosate is known to inhibit 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase of the chorismate biosynthetic pathway, and chorismate is a precursor to aromatic amino acids, auxin, and many other secondary products. Although the perennial weed leafy spurge (Euphorbia esula L.) is considered glyphosate tolerant, glyphosate is often used as part of an integrated pest management program in non-cultivated ecosystems of North America. Part of its tolerance is attributed to escape through an abundance of underground adventitious buds (UABs). Sub-lethal concentrations of foliar applied glyphosate leads to new shoot growth from UABs that have a stunted and/or bushy phenotype after growth-inducing decapitation. To gain insights into glyphosateM-bM-^@M-^Ys impact on molecular mechanisms associated with the stunted and bushy phenotype, we obtained global transcriptome abundance using RNAseq from a subsequent generation of aerial shoots derived from crown buds of glyphosate-treated and -untreated leafy spurge. We further correlated transcript abundance to accumulation of shikimate and phytohormones from the same samples to elucidate interactions. Abundance of shikimate was similar in subsequent generations of aerial shoots generated from crown buds of treated and untreated plants and is likely not a direct factor leading to the stunted and bushy phenotype. However, the results do suggest that transcripts involved in auxin transport and signaling and crosstalk with other phytohormones likely play a role in the bushy phenotype. The results of this study provide some insights for identifying new targets for manipulation of plant growth and development. Transcriptome and metabolite profiling are obtained for aerial tissues derived from crown buds of foliar glyphosate-treated and control (2.24 or 0 kg/ha active ingredient glyphosate + 0.25% v/v surfactant) leafy spurge plants. Each experiment included 4 biological replicates.

Project description:Leafy spurge (Euphorbia esula) is an herbaceous perennial weed that produces vegetatively from an abundance of underground adventitious buds. The objectives of this study were to determine how mimicking natural seasonal conditions (photoperiod and temperature) under controlled environmental conditions affect dormancy and flowering competence; to determine molecular mechanisms associated with well-defined phases of seasonal dormancy transitions based on transcript profiles obtained by microarray analysis; and to link mechanisms regulating induction and release of endodormancy and flowering competence. Reduction in temperature (27 to 10°C) and photoperiod (16 to 8 h) over a three-month period induced a para- to endo-dormant transition in crown buds. An additional eleven weeks of prolonged cold (5-7°C) and short-photoperiod treatment resulted in accelerated shoot growth from crown buds, and 99% floral competence when plants were returned to growth promoting conditions. Exposure of paradormant plants to short-photoperiod and prolonged cold treatment alone had minimal affect growth potential or on flowering (~1%); whereas endodormant crown buds without prolonged cold treatment, had delayed shoot growth and approximately 2% flowering when returned to growth promoting conditions. Transcriptome analyses revealed that 373 and 260 genes were differentially expressed (p<0.005) during para- to endo-dormant and endo- to eco-dormant transitions, respectively. Transcripts from flower competent vs. non-flower competent crown buds identified 607 differentially expressed genes, and genes involved in cell cycle and DNA processing, oxidative stress, flower regulation, and proteolysis were over-represented. Further, sub-network analysis identified expression targets and binding partners associated with circadian clock, dehydration/cold signaling, phosphorylation cascades, and response to abscisic acid, ethylene, gibberellic acid, and jasmonic acid, suggesting these central regulators affect well-defined phases of dormancy. Potential genetic pathways associated with these dormancy transitions and flowering were used to develop a proposed conceptual model. Leafy spurge is an herbaceous perennial weed that undergoes vegetative reproduction from an abundance of underground adventitious buds which exhibit phases of para-, endo-, and eco-dormancy (defined by Lang et al. 1987) during summer, fall, and winter, respectively (Anderson et al. 2005). In this study a population of leafy spurge plants were propagated through random cuttings from the genetically uniform biotype 1984-ND001. Paradormant crown buds from three-month old greenhouse plants were collected after one week of acclimation under growth chamber conditions. Induction of endodormancy in crown buds was accomplished by subjecting greenhouse grown and growth chamber acclimated plants to a ramp down (RD) treatment consisting of a reduction in temperature of 1.42°C week-1 (27°C â 10°C) and a decreasing photoperiod of 40 min week-1 (16h â 8h light) for 12 weeks as previously established by Foley et al. (2009). These conditions mimic the average seasonal environmental conditions experienced in Fargo, ND (46°54â² N, 96°48â² W) during the transition from para- to endo-dormancy (Anderson et al. 2005). To induce a transition of crown buds from endo- to eco-dormancy, plants subjected to the RD treatment were given prolonged cold treatment for 11 weeks at 5-7°C, under constant 8 h:16 h day:night cycle; light fluencies were approximately 250 μmol m-2 s-1. To compare the effects of the prolonged cold with or without RD treatment on dormancy status and flowering competence in crown buds, greenhouse-grown and growth chamber acclimated plants were subjected directly to an extended cold treatment for 11 weeks at 5-7°C, as previously described, without a RD treatment. For microarray hybridizations, labeled cDNAs were prepared from 30 µg of total RNA using the Alexa Fluor cDNA labeling kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) according to manufacturer's protocols. Labeled cDNAs were hybridized to a custom made 23K element microarray that contained 19,808 unigenes from a leafy spurge EST database (Anderson et al. 2007) and an additional 4,129 unigenes from a cassava EST database (Lokko et al. 2007). Comparison of gene expression between samples was accomplished using a rolling circle dye swap hybridization scheme (Churchill 2002) to provide every biological replicate with technical replicates. In our microarray analyses experiment, each of the four biological replicates included four technical replicates using two different dyes, resulting in a total of 16 technical replicates for each treatment. Microarray hybridization was visualized using a GenePix 4000B scanner and probe intensities and background were quantified using GenePix 6.0 software (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, California, USA). A quality control value of â1â was assigned to all probes that had intensity values greater than 2 times the standard deviation over average of the negative control and empty probe intensities (after deletion of 1% of the most intense negative/empty probe values). Hybridization intensities were log2 transformed, and arrays were centered and normalized against each other.
