An Advanced Lipid Metabolism System Revealed by Transcriptomic and Lipidomic Analyses Plays a Central Role in Peanut Cold Tolerance.

ABSTRACT: Cold stress restricts peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) growth, development, and yield. However, the specific mechanism of cold tolerance in peanut remains unknown. Here, the comparative physiological, transcriptomic, and lipidomic analyses of cold tolerant variety NH5 and cold sensitive variety FH18 at different time points of cold stress were conducted to fill this gap. Transcriptomic analysis revealed lipid metabolism including membrane lipid and fatty acid metabolism may be a significant contributor in peanut cold tolerance, and 59 cold-tolerant genes involved in lipid metabolism were identified. Lipidomic data corroborated the importance of membrane lipid remodeling and fatty acid unsaturation. It indicated that photosynthetic damage, resulted from the alteration in fluidity and integrity of photosynthetic membranes under cold stress, were mainly caused by markedly decreased monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG) levels and could be relieved by increased digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG) and sulfoquinovosyldiacylglycerol (SQDG) levels. The upregulation of phosphatidate phosphatase (PAP1) and phosphatidate cytidylyltransferase (CDS1) inhibited the excessive accumulation of PA, thus may prevent the peroxidation of membrane lipids. In addition, fatty acid elongation and fatty acid ?-oxidation were also worth further studied in peanut cold tolerance. Finally, we constructed a metabolic model for the regulatory mechanism of peanut cold tolerance, in which the advanced lipid metabolism system plays a central role. This study lays the foundation for deeply analyzing the molecular mechanism and realizing the genetic improvement of peanut cold tolerance.

Project description:BackgroundClosely related species of the carp family (Cyprinidae) have evolved distinctive abilities to survive under cold stress, but molecular mechanisms underlying the generation of cold resistance remain largely unknown. In this study, we compared transcriptomic profiles of two carp species to identify key factors and pathways for cold tolerance and acclimation.ResultsLarvae of Songpu mirror carp and Barbless carp that were pretreated at 18 °C for 24 h significantly improved their survival rates under lethal cold temperature at 8 °C or 10 °C, indicating that two carp species possess the ability of cold acclimation. However, Songpu mirror carp exhibited stronger abilities of cold tolerance and acclimation than Barbless carp. Transcriptomic profiles of Songpu mirror carp and Barbless carp larvae at 28 °C and 18 °C were compared during cold acclimation through RNA-seq. Differentially expressed genes that are closely associated with the differences in cold acclimation between two carp species were identified through bioinformatics and Venn's diagram analysis. GO enrichment analysis of these genes indicated that cellular component assembly involved in morphogenesis, secondary alcohol metabolism and drug transport were the most up-regulated biological processes during cold acclimation of Songpu mirror carp. Conversely, positive regulation of macroautophagy, intracellular protein transport, and organonitrogen compound catabolism were the most down-regulated biological processes during cold acclimation of Barbless carp. KEGG enrichment analysis revealed that factors in the FoxO-related signaling pathways are mainly responsible for the development of differences in cold tolerance and acclimation between two carp species since altering the phosphorylation of key proteins in the FoxO-related signaling pathways with inhibitors or an activator significantly decreased the cold tolerance and acclimation of Songpu mirror carp. These data provided key clues for dissection of molecular mechanisms underlying the development of cold tolerance and acclimation in carps.ConclusionsThese findings indicate that larvae of two carp species possess different abilities of cold tolerance and can build cold acclimation under mild low temperature. Multiple biological processes and FoxO-related signaling pathways are closely associated with the development of differences in cold tolerance and acclimation between two carp species.

Project description:BackgroundRice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most widely grown food crops, and its yield and quality are particularly important for a warm-saturated diet. Cold stress restricts rice growth, development, and yield; however, the specific mechanism of cold tolerance in rice remains unknown.ResultsThe analysis of leaf physiological and photosynthetic characteristics showed that the two rice varieties were significantly affected by cold stress, but the cold-tolerant variety KY131 had more stable physiological characteristics, maintaining relatively good photosynthetic capacity. To better explore the transcriptional regulation mechanism and biological basis of rice response to cold stress, a comprehensive analysis of the rice transcriptome and lipidome under low temperature and control temperature conditions was carried out. The transcriptomic analysis revealed that lipid metabolism, including membrane lipid and fatty acid metabolism, may be an important factor in rice cold tolerance, and 397 lipid metabolism related genes have been identified. Lipidomics data confirmed the importance of membrane lipid remodeling and fatty acid unsaturation for rice adaptation to cold stress. This indicates that the changes in the fluidity and integrity of the photosynthetic membrane under cold stress lead to the reduction of photosynthetic capacity, which could be relieved by increased levels of monogalactosyldiacylglycerol that mainly caused by markedly increased expression of levels of 1,2-diacylglycerol 3-beta-galactosyltransferase (MGD). The upregulation of phosphatidate phosphatase (PAP2) inhibited the excessive accumulation of phosphatidate (PA) to produce more phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), and phosphatidylglycerol (PG), thereby preventing of membrane phase transition under cold stress. In addition, fatty acid β-oxidation is worth further study in rice cold tolerance. Finally, we constructed a metabolic model for the regulatory mechanism of cold tolerance in rice, in which the advanced lipid metabolism system plays a central role.ConclusionsLipidome analysis showed that membrane lipid composition and unsaturation were significantly affected, especially phospholipids and galactolipids. Our study provides new information to further understand the response of rice to cold stress.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Pinus koraiensis is an evergreen tree species with strong cold resistance. However, the transcriptomic patterns in response to cold stress are poorly understood for P. koraiensis. In this study, global transcriptome profiles were generated for P. koraiensis under cold stress (-?20?°C) over time by high-throughput sequencing. RESULTS:More than 763 million clean reads were produced, which assembled into a nonredundant data set of 123,445 unigenes. Among them, 38,905 unigenes had homology with known genes, 18,239 were assigned to 54 gene ontology (GO) categories and 18,909 were assigned to 25 clusters of orthologous groups (COG) categories. Comparison of transcriptomes of P. koraiensis seedlings grown at room temperature (20?°C) and low temperature (-?20?°C) revealed 9842 differential expressed genes (DEGs) in the 6?h sample, 9250 in the 24?h sample, and 9697 in the 48?h sample. The number of DEGs in the pairwise comparisons of 6?h, 24?h and 48?h was relatively small. The accuracy of the RNA-seq was validated by analyzing the expression patterns of 12 DEGs by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). In this study, 34 DEGs (22 upregulated and 12 downregulated) were involved in the perception and transmission of cold signals, 96 DEGs (41 upregulated and 55 downregulated) encoding 8 transcription factors that regulated cold-related genes expression, and 27 DEGs (17 upregulated and 10 downregulated) were involved in antioxidant mechanisms in response to cold stress. Among them, the expression levels of c63631_g1 (annexin D1), c65620_g1 (alpha-amylase isozyme 3C), c61970_g1 (calcium-binding protein KIC), c51736_g1 (ABA), c58408_g1 (DREB3), c66599_g1 (DREB3), c67548_g2 (SOD), c55044_g1 (CAT), c71938_g2 (CAT) and c11358_g1 (GPX) first increased significantly and then decreased significantly with the extension of stress time. CONCLUSIONS:A large number of DEGs were identified in P. koraiensis under cold stress, especially the DEGs involved in the perception and transmission of cold signals, the DEGs encoding TFs related to cold regulation and the DEGs removing ROS in antioxidation mechanisms. The transcriptome and digital expression profiling of P. koraiensis could facilitate the understanding of the molecular control mechanism related to cold responses and provide the basis for the molecular breeding of conifers.

Project description:Daye No.3 is a novel cultivar of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) that is well suited for cultivation in high-altitude regions such as the Qinghai‒Tibet Plateau owing to its high yield and notable cold resistance. However, the limited availability of transcriptomic information has hindered our investigation into the potential mechanisms of cold tolerance in this cultivar. Consequently, we conducted de novo transcriptome assembly to overcome this limitation. Subsequently, we compared the patterns of gene expression in Daye No. 3 during cold acclimatization and exposure to cold stress at various time points. A total of 15 alfalfa samples were included in the transcriptome assembly, resulting in 141.97 Gb of clean bases. A total of 441 DEGs were induced by cold acclimation, while 4525, 5016, and 8056 DEGs were identified at 12 h, 24 h, and 36 h after prolonged cold stress at 4 °C, respectively. The consistency between the RT‒qPCR and transcriptome data confirmed the accuracy and reliability of the transcriptomic data. KEGG enrichment analysis revealed that many genes related to photosynthesis were enriched under cold stress. STEM analysis demonstrated that genes involved in nitrogen metabolism and the TCA cycle were consistently upregulated under cold stress, while genes associated with photosynthesis, particularly antenna protein genes, were downregulated. PPI network analysis revealed that ubiquitination-related ribosomal proteins act as hub genes in response to cold stress. Additionally, the plant hormone signaling pathway was activated under cold stress, suggesting its vital role in the cold stress response of alfalfa. Ubiquitination-related ribosomal proteins induced by cold acclimation play a crucial role in early cold signal transduction. As hub genes, these ubiquitination-related ribosomal proteins regulate a multitude of downstream genes in response to cold stress. The upregulation of genes related to nitrogen metabolism and the TCA cycle and the activation of the plant hormone signaling pathway contribute to the enhanced cold tolerance of alfalfa.
