Novel Insights Into Genetic Responses for Waterlogging Stress in Two Local Wheat Cultivars in Yangtze River Basin.

ABSTRACT: Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), the most widely cultivated crop, is affected by waterlogging that limited the wheat production. Given the incompleteness of its genome annotation, PacBio SMRT plus Illumina short-read sequencing strategy provided an efficient approach to investigate the genetic regulation of waterlogging stress in wheat. A total of 947,505 full-length non-chimetric (FLNC) sequences were obtained with two wheat cultivars (XM55 and YM158) with PacBio sequencing. Of these, 5,309 long-non-coding RNAs, 1,574 fusion genes and 739 transcription factors were identified with the FLNC sequences. These full-length transcripts were derived from 49,368 genes, including 47.28% of the genes annotated in IWGSC RefSeq v1.0 and 40.86% genes encoded two or more isoforms, while 27.31% genes in the genome annotation of IWGSC RefSeq v1.0 were multiple-exon genes encoding two or more isoforms. Meanwhile, the individuals with waterlogging treatments (WL) and control group (CK) were selected for Illumina sequencing. Totally, 6,829 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were detected from four pairwise comparisons. Notably, 942 DEGs were overlapped in the two comparisons (i.e., XM55-WL vs. YM158-WL and YM158-WL vs. YM158-CK). Undoubtedly, the genes involved in photosynthesis were downregulated after waterlogging treatment in two cultivars. Notably, the genes related to steroid biosynthesis, steroid hormone biosynthesis, and downstream plant hormone signal transduction were significantly upregulated after the waterlogging treatment, and the YM158 variety revealed different genetic regulation patterns compared with XM55. The findings provided valuable insights into unveiling regulation mechanisms of waterlogging stress in wheat at anthesis and contributed to molecular selective breeding of new wheat cultivars in future.

Project description:Colonial Volvocine Algae (CVA) are of great significance for biological evolution study, but little is presently known about their biogeographic distribution. Meanwhile, with the impact of climate change and human activities, their effects on the distribution and structures of CVA communities also remain largely unknown. Herein, the biogeography of CVA was investigated in the Yangtze River basin, 172 sampling sites were set up within a catchment area of 1,800,000 km2, and the distribution and community composition of CVA were studied using single-molecule real-time sequencing and metabarcoding technology based on the full-length 18S sequence. In 76 sampling sites, CVA was discovered in two families, eight genera, and nine species. Eudorina and Colemanosphaera were the main dominant genus. Based on the result of the random forest model and Eta-squared value, the distribution of CVA was significantly influenced by water temperature, altitude, and TP. CVA could be suitably distributed at an average water temperature of 22°C, an average TP concentration of 0.06 mg/L, and an altitude lower than 3,920 m. To assess the effects of anthropogenic pollution on the structures and co-occurrence patterns of CVA communities, we used a stress index calculated by 10 environmental factors to divide the CVA community into low and high pollution group. Network analysis showed that greater pollution levels would have a negative impact on the co-occurrence patterns and diversity of the CVA community. Finally, to study the scientific distribution of CVA under current and future climate change scenarios, we analyzed the climate suitability regionalization of CVA with the maximum entropy model based on 19 climatic factors and four climate scenarios from 2021 to 2040 published by CMIP6. Our results reveal the suitable areas of CVA, and temperature is an important environmental factor affecting the distribution of CVA. With the change of climate in the future, the Three Gorges Reservoir Area, Chaohu Lake, and Taihu Lake are still highly suitable areas for CVA, but the habitat of CVA may be fragmented, and more thorough temporal surveys and sampling of the sediment or mud are needed to investigate the fragmentation of CVA.
