Project description:What methylation changes are occurring in different compartments of early maturation stage seed largely remains unknown. To uncover the possible role of DNA methylation in different compartments of early maturation stage seed, we characterized the methylome of two major compartments (abaxial parenchyma and adaxial parenchyma) in embryonic cotyledon, four major compartments (parenchyma, plumule, root tip, and vascular) in embryonic axis, and seed coat layers (parenchyma and palisade) using Illumina sequencing. The whole seed coat and embryonic cotyledons were captured using LCM to serve as controls.

Project description:Seeds are comprised of three major parts of distinct parental origin: the seed coat, embryo, and endosperm. The maternally-derived seed coat is important for nurturing and protecting the seeds during development. By contrast, the embryo and the endosperm are derived from a double fertilization event, where one sperm fertilizes the egg to form the diploid zygote and the other sperm fertilizes the central cell to form the triploid endosperm. Each seed part undergoes distinct developmental programs during seed development. What methylation changes occur in the different seed parts, if any, remains unknown. To uncover the possible role of DNA methylation in different parts of the seed, we characterized the methylome of three major parts of cotyledon stage seeds, the seed coat, embryonic cotyledons, and embryonic axis, using Illumina sequencing. Illumina sequencing of bisulfite-converted genomic DNA from three parts of soybean cotyledon stage seeds: seed coat (COT-SC), embryonic cotyledons (COT-COT), and embryonic axis (COT-AX).

Project description:What methylation changes are occurring during seed development largely remains unknown. To uncover the possible role of DNA methylation during the transition from seed differentiation to maturation and dormany in soybean, we characterized the methylome of whole seeds representing the differentiation (GLOB stage), maturation (early- (EM), mid- (B1) and late- (AA1) maturation stages), and dormancy (DRY stage) phases of soybean seed development using Illumina sequencing. In addition, we characterized the methylome of the mid-maturation stage embryonic axis (B1-AX) to examine methylation differences, if any, between an embryonic region compared to the whole seed. Illumina sequencing of bisulfite-converted genomic DNA from globular stage (GLOB), early-maturation stage (EM), mid-maturation stage (B1), and late-maturation stage (AA1) seeds, dormancy stage (DRY) and mid-maturation embryonic axis (B1-AX).

Project description:There are four major seed developmental phases in Arabidopsis seed development: morphogenesis, maturation, dormancy and germination. What methylation changes occurring in the different phases, if any, remains unknown. To uncover the possible role of DNA methylation in different parts of the seed, we characterized the methylome of four major seed developmental phases of Arabidopsis using Illumina sequencing: global stage (glob) and linear cotyledon stage (lcot) for morphogenesis phase; mature green stage (mg) and post mature green stage (pmg) for maturation phase; dry seed (dry) for dormancy phase; leaves (leaf) from 4 week plant for vegetative tissues. Illumina sequencing of bisulfite-converted genomic DNA from six seed developmental stages in Arabidopsis: global stage (glob), linear cotyledon stage (lcot), mature green stage (mg), post mature green stage (pmg), dry seed (dry) and leaves (leaf) from 4 week plant.

Project description:Leaves are asymmetric, with differential functionalization of abaxial and adaxial tissues. The bundle sheath (BS) surrounding the vasculature of the C3 crop barley is dorsoventrally differentiated into three domains: adaxial structural, lateral S-type, and abaxial L-type. S-type cells seem to transfer assimilates towards the phloem. Here we used single-cell RNA sequencing to investigate BS differentiation in C4 maize. Abaxial BS (abBS) cells of rank-2 intermediate veins specifically expressed three SWEET sucrose uniporters (SWEET13a, b, and c) and UmamiT amino acid efflux transporters. SWEET13a, b, c were also identified in the phloem parenchyma (PP). Thus maize acquired a unique mechanism for phloem loading in which abBS cells provide the main pathway for apoplasmic sucrose transfer towards the phloem. This pathway predominates in veins responsible for phloem loading (rank-2 intermediate), while rank-1 intermediate and major veins export sucrose from the phloem parenchyma (PP) adjacent to the sieve element companion cell (SE/CC) complex, as in Arabidopsis. We surmise that abBS identity is subject to dorsoventral patterning and has components of PP identity. The observations provide first insights into the unique properties of abBS cells, cells previously considered to fulfill the same functions as other bundle sheath cells (BSCs), and a basis for understanding the C4 syndrome.

Project description:CRABS CLAW (CRC) encodes a transcription factor of the plant-specific YABBY class in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. This gene is highly expressed in the abaxial (external) domain of the gynoecium wall and contributes to the establishment of abaxial-adaxial (external-internal) polarity in that tissue. Here we derive a list of putative target genes of CRC, which include AUXIN RESPONSE FACTOR4 (ARF4) and ASSYMETRIC LEAVES1 (AS1), both of which are known to be involved in the establishment of abaxial-adaxial polarity in lateral organs. ETTIN (ETT), which is partially redundant with ARF4, was not identified as a direct target of CRC, and this observation led us to predict that crc/ett double mutants might resemble ett/arf4 double mutants, which show a very strong breakdown of abaxial-adaxial polarity in the gynoecium wall. We have confirmed this prediction by constructing double mutants using several available mutant alleles of crc, ett and arf4. Interestingly, AS1 plays a role in the establishment of adaxial tissue identity in lateral organs, though its expression is not restricted to the adaxial domain. The observed positive regulation of AS1 by CRC may thus occur very early in gynoecium development, before CRC expression becomes polarised, or at later stages of development, specifically in the abaxial domain.
