Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of Suaeda salsa (Amaranthaceae/Chenopodiaceae), an annual succulent halophyte.

ABSTRACT: Suaeda salsa, an annual succulent halophytic herb, is one of the major halophyte widely distributed in both saline inland and the intertidal zone. In this study, we report the complete chloroplast genome (plastome) of S. salsa. The plastome was 151,642?bp in length and comprises a large single-copy region (83,502?bp), a small single-copy region (17,780?bp), and a pair of inverted repeats (25,180?bp). It encodes 113 unique genes, including 79 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 30 tRNAs, and four rRNAs. The overall GC content of this plastome was 36.4%. Phylogenomic analysis based on 20 plastomes revealed that S. salsa was closely related to S. malacosperma.

The SsDREB Transcription Factor from the Succulent Halophyte Suaeda salsa Enhances Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Transgenic Tobacco.

Project description:Dehydration-responsive element-binding (DREB) transcription factor (TF) plays a key role for abiotic stress tolerance in plants. In this study, a novel cDNA encoding DREB transcription factor, designated SsDREB, was isolated from succulent halophyte Suaeda salsa. This protein was classified in the A-6 group of DREB subfamily based on multiple sequence alignments and phylogenetic characterization. Yeast one-hybrid assays showed that SsDREB protein specifically binds to the DRE sequence and could activate the expression of reporter genes in yeast, suggesting that the SsDREB protein was a CBF/DREB transcription factor. Real-time RT-PCR showed that SsDREB was significantly induced under salinity and drought stress. Overexpression of SsDREB cDNA in transgenic tobacco plants exhibited an improved salt and drought stress tolerance in comparison to the nontransformed controls. The transgenic plants revealed better growth, higher chlorophyll content, and net photosynthesis rate, as well as higher level of proline and soluble sugars. The semiquantitative PCR of transgenics showed higher expression of stress-responsive genes. These data suggest that the SsDREB transcription factor is involved in the regulation of salt stress tolerance in tobacco by the activation of different downstream gene expression.

Identification and evolutionary characterization of salt-responsive transcription factors in the succulent halophyte Suaeda fruticosa.

Project description:Transcription factors are key regulatory elements that affect gene expression in response to specific signals, including environmental stresses such as salinity. Halophytes are specialized plants that have the ability to complete their life cycle in saline environments. In this study we have identified and characterized the evolutionary relationships of putative transcription factors (TF) in an obligate succulent halophyte, Suaeda fruticosa, that are involved in conferring salt tolerance. Using RNA-seq data we have analyzed the expression patterns of certain TF families, predicted protein-protein interactions, and analyzed evolutionary trajectories to elucidate their possible roles in salt tolerance. We have detected the top differentially expressed (DE) transcription factor families (MYB, CAMTA, MADS-box and bZIP) that show the most pronounced response to salinity. The majority of DE genes in the four aforementioned TF families cluster together on TF phylogenetic trees, which suggests common evolutionary origins and trajectories. This research represents the first comprehensive TF study of a leaf succulent halophyte including their evolutionary relationships with TFs in other halophyte and salt-senstive plants. These findings provide a foundation for understanding the function of salt-responsive transcription factors in salt tolerance and associated gene regulation in plants.

Studies on genome size estimation, chromosome number, gametophyte development and plant morphology of salt-tolerant halophyte Suaeda salsa.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Soil salinization and alkalization are among the major agricultural threats that affect crop productivity worldwide, which are increasing day by day with an alarming rate. In recent years, several halophytes have been investigated for their utilization in soil remediation and to decipher the mechanism of salt-tolerance in these high salt tolerant genetic repositories. Suaeda salsa is an annual halophytic herb in the family Amaranthaceae, displaying high salt and alkali-resistance and having nutritive value. However, the fundamental biological characteristics of this valuable plant remain to be elucidated until today. RESULTS:In this study, we observed the morphology and development of Suaeda salsa, including seed morphology, seed germination, plant morphology, and flower development. Using microscopy, we observed the male and female gametophyte developments of Suaeda salsa. Also, chromosome behaviour during the meiosis of male gametophyte was studied. Eventually, the genome size of Suaeda salsa was estimated through flow cytometry using Arabidopsis as reference. CONCLUSIONS:Our findings suggest that the male and female gametophyte developments of Suaeda salsa are similar to those of the model plant Arabidopsis, and the diploid Suaeda salsa contains nine pairs of chromosomes. The findings also indicate that the haploid genome of Suaeda salsa is approximately 437.5?MB. The observations and results discussed in this study will provide an insight into future research on Suaeda salsa.
