Project description:We used flower bud transcriptomes from Collinsia rattanii and its predominantly outcrossing sister species, C. linearis, to explore the genomic basis of mating system and phenotypic evolution in Collinsia, a self-compatible genus. Transcriptional regulation of enzymes involved in pollen formation may influence floral traits that distinguish selfing and outcrossing Collinsia species through pleiotropic functions. These patterns provide clues about parallel evolution in selfing plants.

Project description:RNA-seq reads from the selfing species Arabidopsis thaliana were produced from flowers to study the consequences of the transition from the ancestral state (outcrossing) to the derived state (selfing). This was done in the context of examining another species in the Arabidopsis genus (A. lyrata) and another species pair (Capsella rubella versus Capsella grandiflora, which are selfing and outcrossing, respectively). These samples were generated to complement part of this larger study. Briefly, the shift from outcrossing to selfing is common in flowering plants, but neither the genomic consequences nor the speed with which they appear are well understood. An excellent model for understanding the evolution of self fertilization is provided by Capsella rubella, which became self-compatible <200,000 years ago. We present a reference genome for the species, and compare RNA expression and polymorphism patterns between C. rubella and its outcrossing progenitor C. grandiflora. There is a clear shift in the expression of genes associated with flowering phenotypes; a similar shift is seen in the related genus Arabidopsis, where self-fertilization evolved about 1 million years ago. DNA sequence polymorphisms distinguishing the two Capsella species reveal rapid genome-wide relaxation of purifying selection in C. rubella but without a concomitant change in transposable element abundance. Overall, we document that the transition to selfing may be typified by shifts in expression for genes that function in pollen and flower development, along with a measurable reduction of purifying selection.

As part of a cross-species comparison of gene expression, RNA-seq data was generated in biological replication (2 replicates) from Arabidopsis thaliana at the floral stage. In total, two samples (biological replicates) were used. The reference strain was used for the experments (strain Col-0). Resulting data about gene expression was used as part of a larger study. The Capsella rubella and Capsella grandiflora data are included in GEO Series GSE45518.

Project description:This experiment aims at analyzing crossover distribution in the Arabidopsis recq4ab figl1 compared to wild type. Hybrid lines were obtained through the crossing of Col plants bearing the recq4a, recq4b, and figl1 mutations and Ler plants bearing the recq4a and figl1 mutations. F1 plants either wild type or mutants were selected and F2 seeds were obtained by selfing. Leaf samples from the F2 plants were used for DNA purification and library preparation for Illumina sequencing (HiSeq 3000 2 × 150 bp), performed at the Max Planck-Genome-center (https://mpgc.mpipz.mpg.de/home/).

Project description:Whether, and to what extent, phenotypic evolution follows predictable genetic paths, remains an important question in evolutionary biology. Convergent evolution of similar characters provides a unique opportunity to address this question. The transition to selfing and the associated changes in flower morphology are among the most prominent examples of repeated evolution in plants. Yet, to date no studies have directly compared the extent of similarities between convergent adaptations to selfing. In this study, we take advantage of the independent transitions to self-fertilization in the genus Capsella to test the existence of genetic and developmental constraints imposed on flower evolution in the context of the selfing syndrome. While C. rubella and C. orientalis have emerged independently, both have evolved almost identical flower characters. Not only the evolutionary outcome is identical but, in both cases, the same developmental strategies underlie the convergent reduction of flower size. This has been associated with convergent evolution of gene-expression changes. The transcriptomic changes common to both selfing lineages are enriched in genes with low-network connectivity and with organ-specific expression patterns. Comparative genetic mapping also indicates that, at least in the case of petal size evolution, these similarities are largely caused by mutations at the same loci. Together, these results suggest that the limited availability of low-pleiotropy paths predetermine closely related species to similar evolutionary outcomes.

Project description:Analysis of transcriptome in moss Physcomitrella patens CNGCb null mutant at 25 and 34 degrees C for 30 minutes. Results provide insight into role of CNGCb in acquired thermotolerance induced by non-lethal heat treatment. Typically at dawn of a hot summer day, land plants need precise molecular thermometers to sense harmless increments in the ambient temperature to timely develop a heat-shock response (HSR) and accumulate protective heat shock proteins (Hsps), in anticipation of upcoming harmful temperatures at mid-day. Here, we found that the CNGCb gene from Physcomitrella patens and its Arabidopsis ortholog CNGC2, encode for a component of cyclic nucleotide gated Ca2+ channels acting as the primary thermosensors of land plant cells. Disruption of CNGCb or CNGC2 produced a hyper-thermosensitive phenotype, giving rise to a HSR and acquired thermotolerance at significantly milder heat-priming treatments than in wild type plants. In an aequorin-expressing moss, CNGCb loss-of-function caused altered Ca2+ signaling and a sustained Ca2+ influx. Patch clamp recordings on moss protoplasts showed the presence of three distinct thermo-responsive Ca2+-channels in wild type cells. Deletion of CNGCb led to a total absence of one, and it increased the open probability of the remaining two thermo-responsive Ca2+ channels. Thus, both in Arabidopsis and moss, CNGC2 and CNGCb are expected to form with other related CNGCs, heteromeric Ca2+ channels in the plasma membrane that respond to mild increments in the ambient temperature by triggering an optimal HSR, leading to the onset of plant acquired thermotolerance.

Project description:A novel cold-inducible GSK3/Shaggy-like kinase cDNA (TaSK5) was isolated from winter wheat by a macroarray-based differential screening approach. Sequence analysis of TaSK5 revealed high similarity to Arabidopsis subgroup I GSK3/Shaggy-like kinases ASK-alpha, ASK-gamma and ASK-epsilon. Transgenic Arabidopsis plants overexpressing TaSK5 cDNA under the control of CaMV 35S promoter showed enhanced tolerance to salt and drought stresses. In contrast, the tolerance of the transgenic plants to freezing stress was not altered. To identify genes which are differentially regulated in the 35S:TaSK5 over-expressing Arabidopsis plants under non-stress conditions, we compared the genome-wide expression profiles of Col-0 and plants over-expressing TaSK5 using DNA microarrays. Sixty seven genes were found to be expressed at least 2-fold more strongly in 35S:TaSK5 plants than in Col-0, and 17 genes were found to be expressed at least 2-fold more strongly in Col-0 than in 35S:TaSK5 plants. Most of the TaSK5 up-regulated genes were also induced by abiotic stresses, including cold, salt and drought. These results support the involvement of TaSK5 in abiotic stress signal transduction.
