Comparative study of transcriptomes from four Trichoderma strains gene expression in early interaction with tomato plants

ABSTRACT: A self-designed Trichoderma high density oligonuclotide (HDO) microarray (Roche-NimbleGen, Inc., Madison, WI, USA) was constructed in a similar way than a previous Trichoderma HDO microarray (Samolski et al., 2009). The microarray was composed of 392,779 60-mer probes designed against 14,081 EST-derived transcripts (Trichochip-1) and the genomes of T. reesei (9,129 genes) and T. virens (11,643 genes). The Trichochip-1 ESTs were obtained from 28 cDNA libraries from eight different species (representing the biodiversity of this genus: T. harzianum, T. atroviride, T. asperellum, T. viride, T. longibrachiatum, T. virens, T. stromaticum and T. aggresivum), under a wide range of growth conditions, including biocontrol-related conditions and different nutritional situations (VizcaM-CM--no et al., 2006). This HDO microarray was used to analyze Trichoderma spp. transcriptomes after 20 h incubation in the presence of tomato plants. The Trichochip1 EST database was generated in the TrichoEST project funded by the EU (QLK3-CT-2002-02032). Eight samples were analyzed as follows: Strain T. reesei T6 grown in the presence or not of tomato plants, strain T. hamatum T7 grown in the presence or not of tomato plants, strain T. harzianum T34 grown in the presence or not of tomato plants and strain T. virens T87 grown in the presence or not of tomato plants. Three replicates for each samples were performed.
