Transcriptome analysis reveals new microRNAs-mediated pathway involved in anther development in male sterile wheat.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:337S is a novel bi-pole-photo-thermo-sensitive genic male sterile line in wheat, and sensitive to both long day length/high temperature and short day length/low temperature condition. Although the regulatory function of MicroRNAs (miRNAs) in reproductive development has been increasingly studied, their roles in pre-meiotic and meiotic cells formation of plants have not been clearly explored. Here, we explored the roles of miRNAs in regulating male sterility of 337S at short day length/low temperature condition. RESULTS:Small RNA sequencing and degradome analyses were employed to identify miRNAs and their targets in the 337S whose meiotic cells collapsed rapidly during male meiotic prophase, resulting in failure of meiosis at SL condition. A total of 102 unique miRNAs were detected. Noticeably, the largest miRNA family was MiR1122. The target CCR4-associated factor 1 (CAF1) of miR2275, a subunit of the Carbon Catabolite Repressed 4-Negative on TATA-less (CCR4-NOT) complex, contributes to the process of early meiosis, and was first identified here. Further studies showed that the expression of several pivotal anther-related miRNAs was altered in 337S at SL condition, especially tae-miR1127a, which may be related to male sterility of 337S. Here, we also identified a new member of SWI/SNF factors SWI/SNF-related matrix-associated actin-dependent regulator of chromatin subfamily A, member 3-like 3 (SMARCA3L3) targeted by tae-miR1127a, whose function might be involved in faithful progression of meiosis in male reproductive cells. CONCLUSION:The miRNA-target interactions of tae-miR2275-CAF1 and tae-miR1127a-SMARCA3L3 might be involved in regulating male fertility in 337S. Our results also implied that multiple roles for SMARCA3L3 and CAF1 in DNA repair and transcriptional regulation jointly orchestrated a tight and orderly system for maintaining chromatin and genome integrity during meiosis.

Project description:Heterosis can improve the stress resistance, quality, and yield of crops, and the male sterility of wheat can be utilized to accelerate the breeding process of hybrid. To determine whether mitochondrial genes are involved in the fertility of K-type cytoplasmic male-sterile (CMS) line and the YS-type thermosensitive male-sterile (TMS) line in wheat, we sequenced and assembled the mitochondrial genomes of K519A, 519B, and YS3038 by next-generation sequencing (NGS). The non-synonymous mutations were analyzed, and the first-generation sequencing was conducted to verify the non-synonymous mutation sites. Furthermore, the expression patterns of genes with non-synonymous mutations were analyzed. Finally, the candidate genes were silenced by barley stripe mosaic virus-induced gene silencing (BSMV-VIGS) to test the functions of the candidate genes. The results revealed that the mitochondrial genomes of K519A, 519B, and YS3038 were 420,543, 433,560, and 452,567 bp in length, respectively. Besides, 33, 31, and 37 protein-coding genes were identified in K519A, 519B, and YS3038, respectively. There were 14 protein-coding genes and 83 open reading frame (ORF) sequences that differed between K519A and 519B and 10 protein-coding genes and 122 ORF sequences that differed between K519A and YS3038. At the binucleate stage, seven genes (nad6, ORF256, ORF216, ORF138, atp6, nad3, and cox1) were downregulated in K519A compared with 519B, and 10 genes (nad6, atp6, cox3, atp8, nad3, cox1, rps3, ORF216, ORF138, and ORF224) were downregulated in YS3038 compared with K519A. Besides, six genes (nad6, ORF138, cox3, cox1, rps3, and ORF224) were downregulated under fertile conditions relative to sterile conditions in YS3038. Gene silencing analysis showed that the silencing of cox1 significantly reduced the seed setting rate of YS3038, indicating that the cox1 gene may be involved in the fertility transformation of YS3038.Supplementary informationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s11032-021-01252-x.
