Identification of MicroRNAs and Their Targets in Tomato Infected with Cucumber Mosaic Virus

ABSTRACT: We constructed two independent small RNA libraries from leaves of mock and Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) infected tomatoes, respectively, and sequenced with a high-throughput Illumina Solexa system. Based on sequence analysis and hairpin structure prediction, a total of 50 known miRNAs (32 families) and 568 potentially candidate miRNAs (PC-miRNAs) were firstly identified in tomato, with 12 known miRNAs and 154 PC-miRNAs supported by both the 3p and 5p strands. Comparative analysis revealed 79 miRNAs (including 15 novel tomato miRNAs) and 40 PC-miRNAs were differentially expressed between the two libraries. Among these virus responsive miRNAs, expression patters of some novel tomato miRNAs and PC-miRNAs in mock and in CMV-Fny infected tomatoes were further validated by qRT-PCR. Moreover, we revealed 563 potential targets for 66 tomato miRNAs by the recently developed degradome sequencing approach, including 124 targets for 7 new tomato miRNAs and 97 targets for 24 PC-miRNAs. Target annotation for the newly identified miRNA and PC-miRNAs indicated that they were involved in multiple biological processes, including transcriptional regulation and virus resistance. Gene ontology analysis of these target transcripts demonstrated that stress response- and photosynthesis-related genes were most affected in CMV-Fny infected tomatoes.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important regulatory roles in plant development and stress responses. Tomato is an economically important vegetable crop in the world with publicly available genomic information database, but only a limited number of tomato miRNAs have been identified. In this study, two independent small RNA libraries from mock and Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV)-infected tomatoes were constructed, respectively, and sequenced with a high-throughput Illumina Solexa system. Based on sequence a ...[more]

Project description:In plants, MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a new class of endogenous small RNAs that play essential regulatory roles in plant growth, development and stress response. Extensive studies of miRNAs have been performed in model plants such as rice, Arabidopsis thaliana and other plants. However, the number of miRNAs discovered in maize is relatively low and little is known about miRNAs involved in the four stages during maize ear development. Here, we use deep-sequencing, miRNA microarray assays and computational methods to identify, proM-oM-,M-^Ale, and describe conserved and non-conserved miRNAs at four developmental stages. A total of 27 conserved miRNA families were identiM-oM-,M-^Aed in all four stages, In addition to known miRNAs, we also found 23 new maize-specific miRNAs together with their star strands. We have also shown that almost all of them originated from single genes. We have found that many known and new miRNAs showed temporally expression. Finally, a total of 251 transcripts (140 genes) targeted by 102 small RNAs including 98 miRNAs and 4 ta-siRNAs were identified by genomic-scale high-throughput sequencing of miRNA cleaved mRNAs.This study led to the confirmation of the authenticity of 27 conserved miRNA families and the discovery of 23 novel miRNAs in maize. In addition, we have identified 130 targets of known and new miRNAs and ta-siRNA using recently developed tools for the global identification of miRNA targets. Identification and characterization of this important class of regulatory genes in maize may improve our understanding of molecular mechanism controlling flower development. The seeds of maize inbred line B73 were first sterilized and germinated in an incubator, then grown in a controlled environment with 28M-BM-0C/21M-BM-0C (day/night) under a 16-h day/8-h night photoperiod with a relative humidity of 70%. Ear development can be divided into four stages: the growth point elongation phase, spikelet differentiation phase, the floret primordium differentiation phase and floret organ differentiation phase. Plant materials (ears) were collected as described previously. In brief, ears were manually collected at the four developmental stages according to the plant features (number of visible leaves, leaf age index, and number of unfolded and folded leaves) combined with microscopic observation.
