Transcriptomic differences between male and female Trachycarpus fortunei.

Project description:Trachycarpus fortunei (Hook.) is a typical dioecious plant, which has important economic value. There is currently no sex identification method for the early stages of T. fortunei growth. The aim of this study was to obtain expression and site differences between male and female T. fortunei transcriptomes. Using the Illumina sequencing platform, the transcriptomes of T. fortunei male and female plants were sequenced. By analyzing transcriptomic differences, the chromosomal helical binding protein (CHD1), serine/threonine protein kinase (STPK), cytochrome P450 716B1, and UPF0136 were found to be specifically expressed in T. fortunei males. After single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection, a total of 12 male specific sites were found and the THUMP domain protein homologs were found to be male-biased expressed. Cytokinin dehydrogenase 6 (CKX6) was upregulated in male flowers and the lower concentrations of cytokinin (CTK) may be more conducive to male flower development. During new leaf growth, flavonoid and flavonol biosynthesis were initiated. Additionally, the flavonoids, 3',5'-hydroxylase (F3'5'H), flavonoids 3'-hydroxylase, were upregulated, which may cause the pale yellow phenotype. Based on these data, it can be concluded that inter-sex differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and specific SNP loci may be associated with sex determination in T. fortunei.

Here, the complete cp genome of the Euonymus fortunei has been reconstructed from the whole-genome Illumina sequencing data. The circular genome is 157,639 bp in size, and comprises a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,668 bp each, a large single copy (LSC) region of 85,956 bp and a small single copy (SSC) region of 18,347 bp. The total GC content is 37.2%, while the corresponding values of the LSC, SSC, and IR region are 35.1%, 31.7%, and 42.7%, respectively. The cp genome contains 126 genes, including 89 protein-coding genes, eight ribosomal RNA genes, and 29 transfer RNA genes and one pseudogene. The maximum-likelihood phylogenetic analysis showed a strong sister relationship with Euonymus japonicus in Celastraceae. Our findings provide a foundation for further investigation of cp genome evolution in E. fortunei and other higher plants.

The Complete Chloroplast Genome Sequence of Eupatorium fortunei: Genome Organization and Comparison with Related Species.

Project description:Eupatorium fortunei Turcz, a perennial herb of the Asteraceae family, is one of the horticultural and medicinal plants used for curing various diseases and is widely distributed in China and other Asian countries. It possesses antibacterial, antimetastatic, antiangiogenic, and antioxidant properties along with anticancer potential. However, the intrageneric classification and phylogenetic relationships within Eupatorium have long been controversial due to the lack of high-resolution molecular markers, and the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequencing has not been reported with new evolutionary insights. In the present study, E. fortunei was used as an experimental material, and its genome was sequenced using high-throughput sequencing technology. We assembled the complete cp genome, and a systematic analysis was conducted for E. fortunei, acquiring the correspondence of its NCBI accession number (OK545755). The results showed that the cp genome of E. fortunei is a typical tetrad structure with a total length of 152,401 bp, and the genome encodes 133 genes. Analysis of the complete cp genomes of 20 Eupatorieae shows that the number of simple sequence repeats (SSRs) ranged from 19 to 36 while the number of long sequence repeats was 50 in all cases. Eleven highly divergent regions were identified and are potentially useful for the DNA barcoding of Eupatorieae. Phylogenetic analysis among 22 species based on protein-coding genes strongly supported that E. fortunei is more closely related to Praxelis clematidea and belongs to the same branch. The genome assembly and analysis of the cp genome of E. fortunei will facilitate the identification, taxonomy, and utilization of E. fortunei as well as provide more accurate evidence for the taxonomic identification and localization of Asteraceae plants.

Amino acid sequence of anionic peroxidase from the windmill palm tree Trachycarpus fortunei.

Project description:Palm peroxidases are extremely stable and have uncommon substrate specificity. This study was designed to fill in the knowledge gap about the structures of a peroxidase from the windmill palm tree Trachycarpus fortunei. The complete amino acid sequence and partial glycosylation were determined by MALDI-top-down sequencing of native windmill palm tree peroxidase (WPTP), MALDI-TOF/TOF MS/MS of WPTP tryptic peptides, and cDNA sequencing. The propeptide of WPTP contained N- and C-terminal signal sequences which contained 21 and 17 amino acid residues, respectively. Mature WPTP was 306 amino acids in length, and its carbohydrate content ranged from 21% to 29%. Comparison to closely related royal palm tree peroxidase revealed structural features that may explain differences in their substrate specificity. The results can be used to guide engineering of WPTP and its novel applications.

Iconic but Invasive: The Public Perception of the Chinese Windmill Palm (Trachycarpus fortunei) in Switzerland.

Project description:Biological invasions strongly increased during the last centuries and are challenging environmental managers worldwide. In this context, public acceptance of management measures is a key factor determining the long-term success of the control of invasive species. However, in the case of charismatic and iconic invasive species, the public has often been unwilling to accept strict management measures. Here, we studied the public perception of the Chinese windmill palm (Trachycarpus fortunei) in Switzerland, which is declared as invasive in southern Switzerland but also recognized as iconic. We conducted a nation-wide online survey in the multilingual and multicultural context of Switzerland, investigating the influence of social and cultural factors on the knowledge of, the attitude toward, and the willingness to control the invasive T. fortunei. Results confirm that the knowledge and perception of invasive plants have a strong social and cultural component and may vary greatly as a function of the cultural background, education level, age, and other social characteristics. Furthermore, information on the invasiveness of the focal species provided during the survey significantly affected informants' perceptions, which are closely related to the acceptance of possible management and control measures. This allows us to highlight the importance of a holistic approach that includes targeted public information when dealing with biological invasions, especially in the case of charismatic and iconic species. Based on the obtained results, we suggest avenues for refining management and control strategies of T. fortunei in Switzerland, many of which generally applicable to other cases of invasive species.
