Project description:For many potato cultivars, tuber yield is optimal at average day time temperatures in the range of 14-22 ⁰C. Further rises in ambient temperature can reduce or completely inhibit potato tuber production, with damaging consequences for both producer and consumer. In our previous work we observed that the steady-state expression level of the core circadian clock gene, TIMING OF CAB EXPRESSION 1 (TOC1), in potato tubers increased at moderately elevated temperature, whereas expression of the tuberisation signal gene StSP6A decreased along with tuber yield. In this study we investigated the potential roles of StTOC1 in linking environmental signalling and potato tuberisation. We show that transgenic lines with decreased expression of StTOC1 exhibit enhanced StSP6A transcript levels in tuberising stolons, and show changes in gene expression consistent with elevated tuber sink strength.

Project description:Field-grown tubers of potato were examined for infection by Tobacco rattle virus and consequent production of corky ringspot or spraing symptoms. A microarray study identified tuber genes that are differentially expressed in response to TRV infection and to spraing production, showing that hypersensitive response (HR) pathways are activated in spraing-symptomatic tubers. This was confirmed by quantitative RT-PCR (Q-RT-PCR) of a selected group of HR-related genes and by histochemical staining of excised tuber tissue with spraing symptoms. Q-RT-PCR of TRV in different areas of the same tuber slice showed that non-symptomatic areas contained higher levels of virus than did spraing-symptomatic areas. This suggests that spraing formation is associated with an active plant defence that reduces the level of virus in the infected tuber. Expression of two plant defence genes was similarly upregulated in spraing-symptomatic tubers that were infected with another virus, Potato mop-top-virus, suggesting that spraing is a generalised response to virus infection of tubers.

Project description:Potato (Solanum tuberosum L) is a natural host of Potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd) which can cause characteristic symptoms on developing plants including stunting phenotype and distortion of leaves and tubers. PSTVd is the type species of the family Pospiviroidae, it can replicate in the nucleus and the viroid RNA moves systemically in infected plants. Its KF440-2 strain can cause severe symptoms in potato. It is not well understood how the viroid can affect host genes for successful invasion and which genes show altered expression levels upon infection. In this study, we used a high-scale method to identify differentially expressed genes in potato. We have identified defence, stress and sugar metabolism related genes having altered expression levels upon infection. Additionally, hormone pathways connected genes showed up- or down-regulation. Our primary focus is on the identification of genes which can affect tuber formation as the viroid infection can strongly influence tuber development, especially tuber shape is affected. DWARF1/DIMINUTO, Gibberellin 7-oxidase and BEL5 protein were identified and validated which showed differential expression in viroid infected tissues suggesting that gibberellin and brassinosteroid pathways have a possible role in tuber development upon PSTVd infection.

Project description:Cycling Dof Factor (CDF) transcription factors have been implicated in different aspects of plant growth and development. In Arabidopsis and tomato, two members of this family CDF1 and CDF3 have recently been associated with the regulation of primary metabolism and abiotic stress responses, but their roles in crop production under open field conditions remain unknown. In this study, we compared growth and tuber yield and composition of wild-type (WT) potato plants and plants ectopically expressing the CDF1/3 genes from Arabidopsis under the control of the 35S promoter cultured under growth chamber and open field conditions. In growth chambers, the 35S::AtCDF1 and 35S::AtCDF3 potato plants showed higher than WT biomass production and tuber yield. Under field conditions, 35S::AtCDF1 plants showed significant increases in tuber yield with a significant increase in tuber weight, whereas 35S::AtCDF3 plants showed no significant changes in yield, but produced more than WT number of tubers. Metabolomic analysis revealed that tubers of 35S::AtCDF1 plants cultured under open field conditions accumulated higher levels of glucose, starch and amino acids than WT tubers. Comparative proteomic analysis of tubers of 35S::AtCDF1 and control plants cultured under open field revealed that these changes can be accounted for by changes in the expression of proteins involved in energy production and different aspects of C and N metabolism. Results from this study advance our collective understanding of the role of CDFs and are of interest to improve yield and breeding of crop plants

Project description:For the first time, we report differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers characterized by light and dark chip color after cold storage. Two potato diploid progenies derived from reciprocal crosses of parental clones possessing the T- and D-type cytoplasm were used. We recognized 48 and 15 DEGs as compared to RNA-seq data of contrasting segregants. We identified DEPs in potato tuber amyloplast and mitochondrial fractions. Seven and five DEPs were identified in the amyloplast fractions of the T – and D – type cytoplasm, respectively. Higher number of DEPs were selected from the mitochondrial fraction. The corresponding values were 97 and 105, including 39 common DEPs in the T – and D – type cytoplasm. These findings suggest that mitochondria may play a more important role than amyloplasts in response of potato tubers to cold treatment and that this influence can be different for the T – and D – type cytoplasm. However, we showed that the mt/nucDNA and pt/nucDNA ratios tend to increase for tubers characterized by dark chip color when compared with light chip color samples. Therefore, a protective effect of reducing sugars on both amyloplasts and mitochondria during low temperature treatment should be considered.

Project description:An in vivo and in vitro potato tuber development gene expression study. For in vitro tuber development expression analysis, RNA was isolated from in vitro microtubers at 2, 5, 10, 20 and 30 days following observed tuber induction. Two microtuber populations were used as biological replicates for the developmental stages. The RNA from all developmental stages was pooled to generate the reference samples. Ten microarray hybridizations were performed. For in vivo tuber development expression analysis, RNA was isolated from tubers growing in growth chamber conditions. Tissues were divided into six group, according to developmental size: stolon (no tuber formation), 1-5 mm tubers, 6-10 mm tubers, 11-15 mm tubers, 16-25 mm tubers, and 26-35 mm tubers. Two biological replicates of ten plants each were grown sequentially in the same growth chamber. The RNA from all developmental stages was pooled to generate the reference samples. Twelve microarray hybridizations were performed. For all experiments, the RNA was labeled using the indirect labeling method with random hexamer primers. Amplified cRNA was used as labeling template for stolons. Total RNA was used as labeling template in all other labeling reactions.

Project description:The goal of the current research is to identify factors that involved with heat induced russeting of the potato tuber skin. Potato plants of the variety Desirèe were grown in pots filled with perlite, in a greenhouse under natural winter conditions (Nov 2005- Jan 2006, average temperatures range of 10-18°C). For the exposure of tubers to heat stress (H) hot water (33-35°C) was circulated in tubes lined at the internal side of the pots. The heat was applied one week before tubers harvest. Tubers were harvested at two time points: 8 weeks post sprouting and a week post mechanical vine killing. The skin (S) of young tubers was peeled by hand, as the remaining phelloderm (PH) layers, the periderm of young tubers (P) and the periderm of mature tubers (ST) were peeled using a scalpel blade. Leaves (L) and tuber flesh (TF) samples were collected as well. For each RNA sample 4 biological replicates were prepared; each one represents pooled tissues from 4-6 plants grown at different location in the greenhouse. RNA was extracted using CTAB protocol, and was further purified by RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen) using the On-Column DNase Digestion protocol. Keywords: Loop design

Project description:Commercial storage of potatoes often relies on the use of sprout inhibitors to prolong storage and reduce spoilage. The compound 1,4-dimethylnaphthalene (DMN) has seen increase application as a sprout inhibitor in the potato industry as older chemistries are being phased out. The mode of action of DMN is poorly understood as is the sensitivity of potato tissues to this new class of inhibitor. During storage potato tubers transition from a state of endo-dormant to eco-dormant and it is not known if the DMN response is consistent across this developmental transition. RNA-seq gene expression profiling was used to establish if stored potato tubers (Solanum tuberosum cv La Chipper) have differential sensitivity to DMN as tubers age. DMN was applied at three different times during storage; just after harvest when tubers are in endo-dormancy, midwinter at early eco-dormancy, and in spring during late eco-dormancy when sprouting was prevented via exposure to cold storage temperatures. Changes in gene expression were lowest during endo-dormancy while midwinter and spring treatments exhibited a greater and more diverse expression response. Functional analysis of differential gene expression demonstrated gene sets associated with DNA replication, cell division, and DNA methylation are suppressed after DMN treatment. However, gene sets associated with salicylic acid, jasmonic acid, abiotic and biotic stress responses are elevated by DMN only after endodormancy terminates. Gene clusters associated with pathogenesis related proteins PR-4 and PR-5 are also upregulated in response to DMN. These results indicate that DMN sensitivity changes as potato tubers age and transition from endo-dormant to eco-dormant in storage and the overall response is a shift in gene classes that regulate growth and response to stress.
