Project description:The use of biofertilizers is becoming an economical and environmentally friendly alternative to promote sustainable agriculture. Biochar from microalgae can be applied to enhance the productivity of food crops through soil improvement, slow nutrient absorption and release, increased water uptake, and long-term mitigation of greenhouse gas sequestration. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the stimulatory effects of biochar produced from Spirulina platensis biomass on the development and seed production of rice plants. Biochar was produced by slow pyrolysis at 300°C, and characterization was performed through microscopy, chemical, and structural composition analyses. Molecular and physiological analyses were performed in rice plants submitted to different biochar concentrations (0.02, 0.1, and 0.5 mg mL-1) to assess growth and productivity parameters. Morphological and physicochemical characterization revealed a heterogeneous morphology and the presence of K and Mg minerals in the biochar composition. Chemical modification of compounds post-pyrolysis and a highly porous structure with micropores were observed. Rice plants submitted to 0.5 mg mL-1 of biochar presented a decrease in root length, followed by an increase in root dry weight. The same concentration influenced seed production, with an increase of 44% in the number of seeds per plant, 17% in the percentage of full seeds per plant, 12% in the weight of 1,000 full seeds, 53% in the seed weight per plant, and 12% in grain area. Differential proteomic analyses in shoots and roots of rice plants submitted to 0.5 mg mL-1 of biochar for 20 days revealed a fine-tuning of resource allocation towards seed production. These results suggest that biochar derived from Spirulina platensis biomass can stimulate rice seed production.

Project description:Switchgrass plants were grown in a Sandwich tube system to induce gradual drought stress by withholding watering. After 29 days, leaf photosynthetic rate decreased significantly, compared to the control plants which were watered regularly. The drought-treated plants recovered to the same leaf water content after three days of re-watering. Root tip (1cm basal fragment, designated as RT1 hereafter) and the elongation/maturation zone (the next upper 1 cm tissue, designated as RT2 hereafter) tissues were collected at the 29th day of drought stress treatment, (named SDT for severe drought treated), one (D1W) and three days (D3W) of re-watering. The tandem mass tags mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomics analysis was performed to identify the proteomes, and drought-induced differentially expressed proteins (DEPs). From RT1 tissues, 6,156, 7,687 and 7,699 proteins were quantified, and 296, 535 and 384 DEPs were identified in the SDT, D1W and D3W samples, respectively. From RT2 tissues, 7,382, 7,255 and 6,883 proteins were quantified, and 393, 587 and 321 proteins DEPs were identified in the SDT, D1W and D3W samples. Between RT1 and RT2 tissues, very few DEPs overlapped at SDT, but the number of such proteins increased during the recovery phase. A large number of hydrophilic proteins and stress-responsive proteins were induced during SDT and remained at a higher level during the recovery stages. A large number of DEPs in RT1 tissues maintained the same expression pattern throughout drought treatment and the recovery phases. The DEPs in RT1 tissues were classified in cell proliferation, mitotic cell division, and chromatin modification, and those in RT2 were placed in cell wall remodeling and cell expansion processes. This study provided information pertaining to root zone-specific proteome changes during drought and recover phases, which will allow us to choose the proteins (genes) as better defined targets for developing drought tolerant plants.

Project description:The global emergence of soil salinization poses a serious challenge to many countries and regions. γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is involved in systemic regulation of plant adaptation to salt stress, but the underling molecular and metabolic mechanism still remains largely unknown. The elevated endogenous GABA level by exogenous application of GABA could significantly improve salt tolerance in creeping bentgrass with the enhancement of antioxidant capacity, photosynthetic characteristics, osmotic adjustment (OA), and water use efficiency. GABA strongly upregulated transcript levels of AsPPa2, AsATPaB2, AsNHX2/4/6, and AsSOS1/20 in roots involved in enhanced capacity of Na+ compartmentalization and mitigation of Na+ toxicity in cytosol. Significant downregulation of AsHKT1/4 expression could be induced by GABA in leaves in relation to maintenance of significantly lower Na+ accumulation and higher K+/Na+ ratio. GABA-depressed aquaporins (AQPs) expression and accumulation induced declines in stomatal conductance and transpiration, thereby reducing water loss in leaves during salt stress. For metabolic regulation, GABA primarily enhanced sugars and amino acids accumulation and metabolism largely contributing to improved salt tolerance through maintaining OA and metabolic homeostasis. Other major pathways could be responsible for GABA-induced salt tolerance including increases in antioxidant defense, heat shock proteins, dehydrins, and myo-inositol accumulation in leaves. Integrative analyses of molecular, protein, metabolic, and physiological changes reveal systemic function of GABA on regulating ions, water, and metabolic homeostasis in non-halophytic creeping bentgrass under salt stress.

Project description:Molecular chaperones are essential throughout a protein's life and act already during protein synthesis. Bacteria and chloroplasts of plant cells share the ribosome-associated chaperone trigger factor (Tig1 in plastids), facilitating maturation of emerging nascent polypeptides. While typical trigger factor chaperones employ three domains for their task, we identified a truncated form, Tig2, containing just the ribosome binding domain. Tig2 is predominantly found within higher-evolved photosynthetic species and appears to have acquired an entirely different tasks than co-translational folding. Tig2 deletion results in remarkable leaf developmental defects of cold-exposed Arabidopsis thaliana plants. Our data indicate that Tig2 functions during ribosome assembly, specifically promoting the hidden break formation within the 23S rRNA, the final step of chloroplast ribosome biogenesis. We hypothesize that Tig2 binding to the tunnel-exit surface serves protecting this sensitive surface during ribosome assembly, illustrating a fascinating concept of how similar chaperone domains have evolved for different molecular tasks.

Project description:Heat stress is a serious and widespread threat to the quality and yield of many crops, including grape (Vitis vinifera), which is cultivated worldwide. Here, we conducted phosphoproteomic and acetylproteomic analyses of leaves from grape cultivated in four distinct temperature regimes. The phosphorylation or acetylation of a total of 1,011 phosphoproteins with 1,828 phosphosites, and 96 acetylproteins with 148 acetylsites, changed when plants were grown at 35°C, 40°C and 45°C in comparison with the proteome profiles of plants grown at 25°C. The greatest number of changes were observed at higher temperatures. Functional classification and enrichment analysis indicated that phosphorylation, rather than acetylation, of serine/arginine-rich splicing factors was involved in the responses to high temperatures. This is congruent with previous observations that alternative splicing events occurred more frequently in grapevine under high temperature. Changes in acetylation patterns were more common than changes in phosphorylation patterns in photosynthesis-related proteins at high temperatures, while heat shock proteins were more associated with modifications in phosphorylation than in acetylation. Nineteen proteins were identified with changes in both phosphorylation and acetylation, consistent with crosstalk between these post-translational modifications.

Project description:The protein content determines the cell state. The variation in protein abundance is crucial when organisms are in the early stages of heat stress, but the reasons affecting their changes are largely unknown. We quantified 47,535 mRNAs and 3,742 proteins in filling grain of wheat under two thermal environments. The impact of mRNA abundance and sequence features which implicated in protein translation and degradation on protein expression was evaluated by regression analysis. Transcription, codon usage and amino acid frequency mainly drive the changes in protein expression under heat stress, and their combined contribution explains 58.2% and 66.4% of protein variation in 30 and 40 °C, respectively. Of which, transcription contributes more to the alteration in protein content under 40 °C (31%) than to 30 °C (6%). Codon usage plays a stable and powerful role in protein expression under heat stress, even surpassing transcription. What’s more, the usage of AAG is a key factor regulating rapid protein expression under heat stress.
