Comparison of the complete genomes of two Echinochloa species: barnyard grass and jungle rice.

ABSTRACT: We sequenced and compared the complete chloroplast (cp) genomes of the two Echinochloa species; E. crus-galli (KT983256) and E. colona (KT983255). The size of complete chloroplast genomes of the two species are 139,851 and 139,592 base pairs in length, respectively. They include a pair of inverted repeats (22,640 and 22,618?bp) separated by the small (12,518 and 12,519?bp) and large (82,053 and 81,837?bp) single copy regions. Both chloroplast genomes include a total of 136 genes. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that E. colona was diverged between 2.65 and 3.18 million years ago (Mya) from the E. oryzicola and E. crus-galli.

2,4-D antagonizes glyphosate in glyphosate-resistant barnyard grass Echinochloa colona.

Project description:Glyphosate is often tank-mixed with auxinic herbicide 2,4-D for grass and broadleaf weed control. Here we examined the possible interaction of 2,4-D and glyphosate in barnyard grass, Echinochloa colona (L.) Link. The results showed that 2,4-D antagonizes glyphosate remarkably in glyphosate-resistant populations but only marginally in susceptible populations. This antagonism is related to reduced glyphosate uptake and (to a lesser extent) translocation. As 2,4-D has multiple, unpredictable effects on other herbicides, care must be taken when tank-mixing herbicides with 2,4-D.

Cross-genera transferability of rice and finger millet genomic SSRs to barnyard millet (Echinochloa spp.).

Project description:Barnyard millet (Echinochloa spp.) is an important crop from nutritional point of view, nevertheless, the genetic information is very scarce. In the present investigation, rice and finger millet genomic SSRs were used for assessing cross transferability, identification of polymorphic markers, syntenic regions, genetic diversity and population structure analysis of barnyard millet genotypes. We observed 100% cross transferability for finger millet SSRs, of which 91% were polymorphic, while 71% of rice markers were cross transferable with 48% polymorphic out of them. Twenty-nine and sixteen highly polymorphic finger millet and rice SSRs yielded a mean of 4.3 and 3.38 alleles per locus in barnyard millet genotypes, respectively. The PIC values varied from 0.27 to 0.73 at an average of 0.54 for finger millet SSRs, whereas it was from 0.15 to 0.67 at an average of 0.44 for rice SSRs. High synteny was observed for markers related to panicle length, yield-related traits, spikelet fertility, plant height, root traits, leaf senescence, blast and brown plant hopper resistance. Although the rice SSRs located on chromosome 10 followed by chromosome 6 and 11 were found to be more transferable to barnyard millet, the finger millet SSRs were more polymorphic and transferable to barnyard millet genotypes. These SSR data of finger millet and rice individually as well as combined together grouped the 11 barnyard millet genotypes into 2 major clusters. The results of population structure analysis were similar to cluster analysis.

Disulfide-stabilized helical hairpin structure and activity of a novel antifungal peptide EcAMP1 from seeds of barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli).

Project description:This study presents purification, activity characterization, and (1)H NMR study of the novel antifungal peptide EcAMP1 from kernels of barnyard grass Echinochloa crus-galli. The peptide adopts a disulfide-stabilized α-helical hairpin structure in aqueous solution and thus represents a novel fold among naturally occurring antimicrobial peptides. Micromolar concentrations of EcAMP1 were shown to inhibit growth of several fungal phytopathogens. Confocal microscopy revealed intensive EcAMP1 binding to the surface of fungal conidia followed by internalization and accumulation in the cytoplasm without disturbance of membrane integrity. Close spatial structure similarity between EcAMP1, the trypsin inhibitor VhTI from seeds of Veronica hederifolia, and some scorpion and cone snail toxins suggests natural elaboration of different functions on a common fold.

Echinochloa chloroplast genomes: insights into the evolution and taxonomic identification of two weedy species.

Project description:The genus Echinochloa (Poaceae) includes numerous problematic weeds that cause the reduction of crop yield worldwide. To date, DNA sequence information is still limited in the genus Echinochloa. In this study, we completed the entire chloroplast genomes of two Echinochloa species (Echinochloa oryzicola and Echinochloa crus-galli) based on high-throughput sequencing data from their fresh green leaves. The two Echinochloa chloroplast genomes are 139,891 and 139,800 base pairs in length, respectively, and contain 131 protein-coding genes, 79 indels and 466 substitutions helpful for discrimination of the two species. The divergence between the genus Echinochloa and Panicum occurred about 21.6 million years ago, whereas the divergence between E. oryzicola and E. crus-galli chloroplast genes occurred about 3.3 million years ago. The two reported Echinochloa chloroplast genome sequences contribute to better understanding of the diversification of this genus.

Glutathione S-transferase activity facilitates rice tolerance to the barnyard grass root exudate DIMBOA.

Project description:BackgroundIn paddy fields, the noxious weed barnyard grass secretes 2,4-dihydroxy-7-methoxy-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one (DIMBOA) to interfere with rice growth. Rice is unable to synthesize DIMBOA. Rice cultivars with high or low levels of allelopathy may respond differently to DIMBOA.ResultsIn this study, we found that low concentrations of DIMBOA (≤ 0.06 mM) promoted seedling growth in allelopathic rice PI312777, while DIMBOA (≤ 0.08 mM) had no significant influence on the nonallelopathic rice Lemont. DIMBOA treatment caused changes in the expression of a large number of glutathione S-transferase (GST) proteins, which resulting in enrichment of the glutathione metabolic pathway. This pathway facilitates plant detoxification of heterologous substances. The basal levels of GST activity in Lemont were significantly higher than those in PI312777, while GST activity in PI312777 was slightly induced by increasing DIMBOA concentrations. Overexpression of GST genes (Os09g0367700 and Os01g0949800) in these two cultivars enhanced rice resistance to DIMBOA.ConclusionsTaken together, our results indicated that different rice accessions with different levels of allelopathy have variable tolerance to DIMBOA. Lemont had higher GST activity, which helped it tolerate DIMBOA, while PI312777 had lower GST activity that was more inducible. The enhancement of GST expression facilitates rice tolerance to DIMBOA toxins from barnyard grass root exudates.

Matrix attachment regions and structural colinearity in the genomes of two grass species.

Project description:In order to gain insights into the relationship between spatial organization of the genome and genome function we have initiated studies of the co-linear Sh2/A1- homologous regions of rice (30 kb) and sorghum (50 kb). We have identified the locations of matrix attachment regions (MARs) in these homologous chromosome segments, which could serve as anchors for individual structural units or loops. Despite the fact that the nucleotide sequences serving as MARs were not detectably conserved, the general organizational patterns of MARs relative to the neighboring genes were preserved. All identified genes were placed in individual loops that were of comparable size for homologous genes. Hence, gene composition, gene orientation, gene order and the placement of genes into structural units has been evolutionarily conserved in this region. Our analysis demonstrated that the occurrence of various 'MAR motifs' is not indicative of MAR location. However, most of the MARs discovered in the two genomic regions were found to co-localize with miniature inverted repeat transposable elements (MITEs), suggesting that MITEs preferentially insert near MARs and/or that they can serve as MARs.

Characterization of Hydroxyproline-Containing Hairpin-Like Antimicrobial Peptide EcAMP1-Hyp from Barnyard Grass (Echinochloa crusgalli L.) Seeds: Structural Identification and Comparative Analysis of Antifungal Activity.

Project description:Herein, we describe a modified form of the antimicrobial hairpin-like peptide EcAMP1, isolated from barnyard grass (E. crusgalli) seeds, which is structurally characterized by a combination of high-pressure liquid chromatography, mass spectrometry, and automated Edman sequencing. This derivate has a single amino acid substitution (Pro19Hyp) in the second ?-helical region of the molecule, which is critical for the formation of the hydrophobic core and the secondary structure elements. Comparing the antifungal activity of these two peptides, we found that the modified EcAMP1-Hyp had a significantly weaker activity towards the most-sensitive plant pathogenic fungus Fusarium solani. Molecular dynamics simulations and in vitro binding to the commercial polysaccharides allowed us to conclude that the Pro-19 residue is important for binding to carbohydrates located in the spore cell wall and it chiefly exhibits a fungistatic action representing the hyphal growth inhibition. These data are novel and significant for understanding a role of ?-hairpinins in plant immunity.

Characterization and genomic analysis of a bensulfuron methyl-degrading endophytic bacterium Proteus sp. CD3 isolated from barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli).

Project description:Bensulfuron methyl (BSM) is a widely used sulfonylurea herbicide in agriculture. However, the large-scale BSM application causes severe environmental problems. Biodegradation is an important way to remove BSM residue. In this study, an endophytic bacterium strain CD3, newly isolated from barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli), could effectively degrade BSM in mineral salt medium. The strain CD3 was identified as Proteus sp. based on the phenotypic features, physiological biochemical characteristics, and 16S rRNA gene sequence. The suitable conditions for BSM degradation by this strain were 20-40°C, pH 6-8, the initial concertation of 12.5-200 mg L-1 with 10 g L-1 glucose as additional carbon source. The endophyte was capable of degrading above 98% BSM within 7 d under the optimal degrading conditions. Furthermore, strain CD3 could also effectively degrade other sulfonylurea herbicides including nicosulfuron, halosulfuron methyl, pyrazosulfuron, and ethoxysulfuron. Extracellular enzyme played a critical role on the BSM degradation by strain CD3. Two degrading metabolites were detected and identified by using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The biochemical degradation pathways of BSM by this endophyte were proposed. The genomic analysis of strain CD3 revealed the presence of putative hydrolase or esterase genes involved in BSM degradation, suggesting that a novel degradation enzyme for BSM was present in this BSM-degrading Proteus sp. CD3. The results of this research suggested that strain CD3 may have potential for using in the bioremediation of BSM-contaminated environment.
