Heat-Responsive miRNAs Participate in the Regulation of Male Fertility Stability in Soybean CMS-Based F₁ under High Temperature Stress.

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of noncoding small RNAs (sRNAs), are widely involved in the response to high temperature (HT) stress at both the seedling and flowering stages. To dissect the roles of miRNAs in regulating male fertility in soybean cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS)-based F₁ under HT, sRNA sequencing was performed using flower buds from HT-tolerant and HT-sensitive CMS-based F₁ combinations (NF₁ and YF₁, respectively). A total of 554 known miRNAs, 59 new members of known miRNAs, 712 novel miRNAs, and 1145 target genes of 580 differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) were identified under normal temperature and HT conditions. Further integrated analysis of sRNA and transcriptome sequencing found that 21 DEMs and 15 differentially expressed target genes, such as gma-miR397a/Laccase 2, gma-miR399a/Inorganic phosphate transporter 1-4, and gma-miR4413a/PPR proteins, mitochondrial-like, were negatively regulated under HT stress. Furthermore, all members of the gma-miR156 family were suppressed by HT stress in both NF₁ and YF₁, but were highly expressed in YF₁ under HT condition. The negative correlation between gma-miR156b and its target gene squamosa promoter-binding protein-like 2b was confirmed by expression analysis, and overexpression of gma-miR156b in Arabidopsis led to male sterility under HT stress. With these results, we proposed that miRNAs play an important role in the regulation of male fertility stability in soybean CMS-based F₁ under HT stress.

Project description:BackgroundAs a vital type of noncoding RNAs, circular RNAs (circRNAs) play important roles in plant growth and development and stress response. However, little is known about the biological roles of circRNAs in regulating the stability of male fertility restoration for cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) conditioned by Gossypium harknessii cytoplasm (CMS-D2) cotton under high-temperature (HT) stress.ResultsIn this study, RNA-sequencing and bioinformatics analysis were performed on pollen grains of isonuclear alloplasmic near-isogenic restorer lines NH [N(Rf1rf1)] and SH [S(Rf1rf1)] with obvious differences in fertility stability under HT stress at two environments. A total of 967 circRNAs were identified, with 250 differentially expressed under HT stress. We confirmed the back-splicing sites of eight selected circRNAs using divergent primers and Sanger sequencing. Tissue-specific expression patterns of five differentially expressed circRNAs (DECs) were also verified by RT-PCR and qRT-PCR. Functional enrichment and metabolic pathway analysis revealed that the parental genes of DECs were significantly enriched in fertility-related biological processes such as pollen tube guidance and cell wall organization, as well as the Pentose and glucuronate interconversions, Steroid biosynthesis, and N-Glycan biosynthesis pathways. Moreover, we also constructed a putative circRNA-mediated competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network consisting of 21 DECs, eight predicted circRNA-binding miRNAs, and their corresponding 22 mRNA targets, especially the two ceRNA modules circRNA346-miR159a-MYB33 and circRNA484-miR319e-MYB33, which might play important biological roles in regulating pollen fertility stability of cotton CMS-D2 restorer line under HT stress.ConclusionsThrough systematic analysis of the abundance, characteristics and expression patterns of circRNAs, as well as the potential functions of their parent genes, our findings suggested that circRNAs and their mediated ceRNA networks acted vital biological roles in cotton pollen development, and might be also essential regulators for fertility stability of CMS-D2 restorer line under heat stress. This study will open a new door for further unlocking complex regulatory mechanisms underpinning the fertility restoration stability for CMS-D2 in cotton.
