Expression data of Defensin-like genes (DEFLs) from different parts and treatments of Medicago truncatula

ABSTRACT: Since most of the DEFLs were recently discovered and many are not well represented on standard microarrays, little is known about their expression pattterns. To address this gap, we have designed a custom Affymetrix microarray (AtMtDEFL array) with known and predicted Arabidopsis and Medicago DEFL genes and the closely related maternally expressed gene family. The custom array was utilized for hybridizations of mRNAs from a wide range of conditions and tissues from both plant species, enabling a comparative analysis in the two model plant species. The custom chip transcript analysis provided the first expression evidence for many of the computationally identified DEFLs previously lacking gene expression evidence, and indicated both common and unique patterns of DEFL gene expression between the two model plant species. The custom designed Affymetrix chip consisting of nearly all DEFLs from Medicago truncatula was used for transcript profiling study in a variety of plant organs, developmental stages, and during symbiotic and pathogenic associations totalling 13 different treatments. Each treatment was supported by three biological replicates giving a grand total of 39 samples.

Expression of Nodule Cysteine-Rich (NCR) Defensin-Like (DEFL) genes among four different accessions of Medicago truncatula inoculated with two different rhizobial strains.

Project description:We have undertaken a detailed study to identify expression polymorphism of NCRs. We used a custom Affymetrix oligonucleotide microarray to examine the expression changes of 566 NCRs in four different accessions of Medicago truncatula. Each accession was inoculated with two different rhizobial strains to assess the NCR expression differences caused by host-symbiont specificity. The NCRs displayed significant expression differences among the ecotypes but had subtle differences in gene expression because of strain difference. We used a custom Affymetrix chip containing 684 probe sequences of Medicago DEFLs to explore the expression polymorphism of NCRs in nodules inoculated with Sinorhizobium meliloti 1021(Sm1021) and Sinorhizobium medicae (SmA321) totalling 8 different treatments. Each treatment was supported by three biological replicates giving a grand total of 24 samples.

Expression data of Nodule Cysteine-Rich (NCR) Defensin-Like (DEFL) genes in different stages of nodule development in Medicago truncatula

Project description:We have undertaken a detailed study to identify mechanisms regulating expression of NCRs. We used a custom Affymetrix oligonucleotide microarray to examine the expression changes of 566 NCRs in different stages of nodule development. Additionally, rhizobial mutants were used to understand the importance of the rhizobial components in induction of NCRs. Early NCRs were detected during the initial infection of rhizobia in nodules and continue to be expressed into the late stages of nodule development. Late NCRs were induced concomittant with bacteroid development in the nodules. The induction of these groups of genes was correlated with the number and morphology of rhizobia in the nodule. We used a custom Affymetrix chip containing 684 probe sequences of Medicago DEFLs to explore the expression patterns of NCRs in nodules inoculated with Sinorhizobium meliloti 1021(Sm1021) at marked developmental stages and nodules inoculated with various mutants derived from Sm1021 totalling 14 different treatments. Each treatment was supported by three biological replicates giving a grand total of 42 samples.

Expression profile of Arabidopsis DEFLs in pistils and developing siliques

Project description:The aim of the project is to determine the expression profile of Arabidopsis DEFL during sexual reproduction, in particular seed development. To this aim, we generated a customised Affymetrics array that was hybridized with labeled cDNA synthetised from total RNA. Plant were grown in a control environment chamber and were pollinated manually to precisely generate different stages of seed development. Samples were collected in tripicates.

plant genotype x rhizobium genotype interaction

Project description:Coevolutionary change requires reciprocal selection between interacting species, i.e., that the partner genotypes that are favored in one species depend on the genetic composition of the interacting species. Coevolutionary genetic variation is manifested as genotype ´ genotype (G ´ G) interactions for fitness from interspecific interactions. Although quantitative genetic approaches have revealed abundant evidence for G ´ G interactions in symbioses, the molecular basis of this variation remains unclear. Here we study the molecular basis of G ´ G interactions in a model legume-rhizobium mutualism using gene expression microarrays. We find that, like quantitative traits such as fitness, variation in the symbiotic transcriptome may be partitioned into additive and interactive genetic components. Our results suggest that plant genetic variation is the largest influence on nodule gene expression, and that plant genotype and the plant genotype ´ rhizobium genotype interaction determine global shifts in rhizobium gene expression that in turn feedback to influence plant fitness benefits. Moreover, the transcriptomic variation we uncover implicates regulatory changes in both species as drivers of symbiotic gene expression variation. Our study is the first to partition genetic variation in a symbiotic transcriptome, and illuminates potential molecular routes of coevolutionary change. We assayed gene expression using three biological replicates for each plant genotype × rhizobium genotype combination (4 combinations) for a total of 12 chips. We compared gene expression in each of four combinations of Medicago truncatula families and Sinorhizobium meliloti strains using Affymetrix Medicago GeneChips to study how the entire transcriptome and individual genes responded to differences between plant families, between rhizobium strains, and due to the plant family × rhizobium strain (G × G) interaction.

miRNAs target conserved motifs of diverse genes encoding NB-LRRs to trigger trans-acting siRNAs in legumes.

Project description:Trans-acting siRNAs (tasiRNAs) negatively regulate target transcripts and are characterized by siRNAs spaced in 21-nucleotide 'phased' intervals. TasiRNAs have not been extensively described in many plant species. We identified dozens of new miRNAs in Medicago and soybean and confirmed 119 Medicago targets. A search for phased tasiRNA-like small RNAs ('phasiRNAs') found at least 114 Medicago loci, the majority of which were NB-LRR encoding genes. Notably, conserved domains in NB-LRR-encoding RNAs are targeted by several 22-nt miRNA families to trigger phasiRNA production. DCL2 and SGS3 transcripts were also cleaved by these 22-nt miRNAs, generating phased small RNAs, suggesting synchronization between silencing and pathogen defense pathways. A second example of 'two-hit' phasiRNA processing was identified, utilizing miR156-miR172 sites. Our data illustrate a complex tasiRNA-mediated regulatory circuit that potentially modulates plant-microbe interactions. A few miRNA triggers regulate an extremely large gene family by targeting highly conserved protein motif-encoding sequences, representing a new paradigm for miRNA function.

Gene expression during early stages of arbuscular mycorrhizal root formation in Medicago truncatula.

Project description:Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) interactions between plants and Glomeromycota fungi primarily support phosphate aquisition of most terrestrial plant species. To unravel gene expression during early stages of Medicago truncatula root colonization by AM fungi, we used genome-wide transcriptome profiling based on mycorrhizal root fragments enriched for early fungal infection stages. We used Medicago GeneChips to detail the global programme of gene expression in response to early stages of colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and identified genes differentially expressed during these early stages. Medicago truncatula GFP-HDEL hairy roots (genotypes A17 and DMI3) were grown in vertically-oriented petri dishes, incubated at 26M-BM-0C and inoculated with 8 Gigaspora margarita spores, which were positioned between the lateral roots. G.margarita spores germinated in 2 to 4 days. Hyphopodia were observed after 5-6 days. Root fragments which reacted to the fungal contact were collected and frozen. Non-inoculated control root fragments were harvested at a comparable age.
