Defining the function of SUMO system in pod development and abiotic stresses in Peanut.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Posttranslational modification of proteins by small ubiquitin like modifier (SUMO) proteins play an important role during the developmental process and in response to abiotic stresses in plants. However, little is known about SUMOylation in peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.), one of the world's major food legume crops. In this study, we characterized the SUMOylation system from the diploid progenitor genomes of peanut, Arachis duranensis (AA) and Arachis ipaensis (BB). RESULTS:Genome-wide analysis revealed the presence of 40 SUMO system genes in A. duranensis and A. ipaensis. Our results showed that peanut also encodes a novel class II isotype of the SCE1, which was previously reported to be uniquely present in cereals. RNA-seq data showed that the core components of the SUMOylation cascade SUMO1/2 and SCE1 genes exhibited pod-specific expression patterns, implying coordinated regulation during pod development. Furthermore, both transcripts and conjugate profiles revealed that SUMOylation has significant roles during the pod development. Moreover, dynamic changes in the SUMO conjugates were observed in response to abiotic stresses. CONCLUSIONS:The identification and organization of peanut SUMO system revealed SUMOylation has important roles during stress defense and pod development. The present study will serve as a resource for providing new strategies to enhance agronomic yield and reveal the mechanism of peanut pod development.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Early peanut pod development is an important process of peanut reproductive development. Modes of DNA methylation during early peanut pod development are still unclear, possibly because its allotetraploid genome may cause difficulty for the methylome analysis. RESULTS:To investigate the functions of the dynamic DNA methylation during the early development of the peanut pod, global methylome and gene expression analyses were carried out by Illumina high throughput sequencing. A novel mapping strategy of reads was developed and used for methylome and gene expression analysis. Differentially methylated genes, such as nodulin, cell number regulator-like protein, and senescence-associated genes, were identified during the early developmental stages of the peanut pod. The expression levels of gibberellin-related genes changed during this period of pod development. From the stage one (S1) gynophore to the stage two (S2) gynophore, the expression levels of two key methyltransferase genes, DRM2 and MET1, were up-regulated, which may lead to global DNA methylation changes between these two stages. The differentially methylated and expressed genes identified in the S1, S2, and stage 3 (S3) gynophore are involved in different biological processes such as stem cell fate determination, response to red, blue, and UV light, post-embryonic morphogenesis, and auxin biosynthesis. The expression levels of many genes were co-related by their DNA methylation levels. In addition, our results showed that the abundance of some 24-nucleotide siRNAs and miRNAs were positively associated with DNA methylation levels of their target loci in peanut pods. CONCLUSION:A novel mapping strategy of reads was described and verified in this study. Our results suggest that the methylated modes of the S1, S2, and S3 gynophore are different. The methylation changes that were identified during early peanut pod development provide useful information for understanding the roles of epigenetic regulation in peanut pod development.

Project description:BackgroundGibberellins (GAs) play important roles in regulating peanut growth and development. GA20ox and GA3ox are key enzymes involved in GA biosynthesis. These enzymes encoded by a multigene family belong to the 2OG-Fe (II) oxygenase superfamily. To date, no genome-wide comparative analysis of peanut AhGA20ox and AhGA3ox-encoding genes has been performed, and the roles of these genes in peanut pod development are not clear.MethodsA whole-genome analysis of AhGA20ox and AhGA3ox gene families in peanut was carried out using bioinformatic tools. The expression of these genes at different stage of pod development was analyzed using qRT-PCR.ResultsIn this study, a total of 15 AhGA20ox and five AhGA3ox genes were identified in peanut genome, which were distributed on 14 chromosomes. Phylogenetic analysis divided the GA20oxs and GA3oxs into three groups, but AhGA20oxs and AhGA3oxs in two groups. The conserved pattern of gene structure, cis-elements, and protein motifs further confirmed their evolutionary relationship in peanut. AhGA20ox and AhGA3ox genes were differential expressed at different stages of pod development. The strong expression of AhGA20ox1/AhGA20ox4, AhGA20ox12/AhGA20ox15, AhGA3ox1 and AhGA3ox4/AhGA3ox5 in S1-stage indicated that these genes could have a key role in controlling peg elongation. Furthermore, AhGA20ox and AhGA3ox also showed diverse expression patterns in different peanut tissues including leaves, main stems, flowers and inflorescences. Noticeably, AhGA20ox9/AhGA20ox11 and AhGA3o4/AhGA3ox5 were highly expressed in the main stem, whereas the AhGA3ox1 and AhGA20ox10 were strongly expressed in the inflorescence. The expression levels of AhGA20ox2/AhGA20ox3, AhGA20ox5/AhGA20ox6, AhGA20ox7/AhGA20ox8, AhGA20ox13/AhGA20ox14 and AhGA3ox2/AhGA3ox3 were high in the flowers, suggesting their involvement in flower development. These results provide a basis for deciphering the roles of AhGA20ox and AhGA3ox in peanut growth and development, especially in pod development.
