Developing single nucleotide polymorphism markers for the identification of pineapple (Ananas comosus) germplasm.

Project description:Pineapple (Ananas comosus [L.] Merr.) is the third most important tropical fruit in the world after banana and mango. As a crop with vegetative propagation, genetic redundancy is a major challenge for efficient genebank management and in breeding. Using expressed sequence tag and nucleotide sequences from public databases, we developed 213 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers and validated 96 SNPs by genotyping the United States Department of Agriculture - Agricultural Research Service pineapple germplasm collection, maintained in Hilo, Hawaii. The validation resulted in designation of a set of 57 polymorphic SNP markers that revealed a high rate of duplicates in this pineapple collection. Twenty-four groups of duplicates were detected, encompassing 130 of the total 170 A cosmos accessions. The results show that somatic mutation has been the main source of intra-cultivar variations in pineapple. Multivariate clustering and a model-based population stratification suggest that the modern pineapple cultivars are comprised of progenies that are derived from different wild Ananas botanical varieties. Parentage analysis further revealed that both A. comosus var. bracteatus and A. comosus var. ananassoides are likely progenitors of pineapple cultivars. However, the traditional classification of cultivated pineapple into horticultural groups (e.g. 'Cayenne', 'Spanish', 'Queen') was not well supported by the present study. These SNP markers provide robust and universally comparable DNA fingerprints; thus, they can serve as an efficient genotyping tool to assist pineapple germplasm management, propagation of planting material, and pineapple cultivar protection. The high rate of genetic redundancy detected in this pineapple collection suggests the potential impact of applying this technology on other clonally propagated perennial crops.

Nanoapplication of a Resistance Inducer to Reduce Phytophthora Disease in Pineapple (Ananas comosus L.).

Project description:Treatment of plants with a variety of abiotic and biotic inducers causes induced resistance to pathogen attack. In this study, the effect of four resistance inducers on plant diseases caused by Phytophthora cinnamomi was screened in vivo initially by using lupin, a susceptible model plant. Lupin pretreated with 0.5 mM salicylic acid (SA) showed effective resistance against P. cinnamomi with restricted lesions. Then, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) with particle size around 20 nm and approximate pore size of 3.0 nm were synthesized and functionalized for loading and importing SA to pineapple plantlets. Decanethiol gatekeepers were introduced to the surface of MSNs via glutathione (GSH)-cleavable disulfide linkages to cover the pore entrance, which was confirmed through using Raman spectroscopy. Through free diffusion, the loading efficiency of SA in MSNs gated with gatekeepers was 11.7%, but was lower in MSNs without gatekeepers (8.0%). In addition, in vitro release profile of SA from gatekeeper-capped MSNs indicated that higher concentrations of GSH resulted in more cargo release. Moreover, the experiments in planta showed that the application of MSNs as a resistance inducer delivery system significantly improved pineapple resistance to P. cinnamomi in terms of inhibiting lesion development and improving root growth of infected plants, compared to the use of free SA and MSNs without gatekeepers. The analysis of SA, GSH, and defense-related genes, of PR1 and PR5, further confirmed that the slow and prolonged release of SA from MSNs inside the roots of pineapple plants was achieved through a redox-stimuli release mechanism. Therefore, the application of MSNs with redox-responsive gatekeepers has shown great potential as an efficient tool for delivering chemicals into plants in a controllable way.

GC-MS Based Metabolite Profiling to Monitor Ripening-Specific Metabolites in Pineapple (Ananas comosus).

Project description:Pineapple is one of the most cultivated tropical, non-climacteric fruits in the world due to its high market value and production volume. Since non-climacteric fruits do not ripen after harvest, the ripening stage at the time of harvest is an important factor that determines sensory quality and shelf life. The objective of this research was to investigate metabolite changes in the pineapple ripening process by metabolite profiling approach. Pineapple (Queen variety) samples from Indonesia were subjected to GC-MS analysis. A total of 56, 47, and 54 metabolites were annotated from the crown, flesh, and peel parts, respectively. From the principal component analysis (PCA) plot, separation of samples based on ripening stages from C0-C2 (early ripening stages) and C3-C4 (late ripening stages) was observed for flesh and peel parts, whereas no clear separation was seen for the crown part. Furthermore, orthogonal projection to latent structures (OPLS) analysis suggested metabolites that were associated with the ripening stages in flesh and peel parts of pineapple. This study indicated potentially important metabolites that are correlated to the ripening of pineapple that would provide a basis for further study on pineapple ripening process.

Multidisciplinary perspectives on banana (Musa spp.) domestication.

Project description:Original multidisciplinary research hereby clarifies the complex geodomestication pathways that generated the vast range of banana cultivars (cvs). Genetic analyses identify the wild ancestors of modern-day cvs and elucidate several key stages of domestication for different cv groups. Archaeology and linguistics shed light on the historical roles of people in the movement and cultivation of bananas from New Guinea to West Africa during the Holocene. The historical reconstruction of domestication processes is essential for breeding programs seeking to diversify and improve banana cvs for the future.

Leaf margin phenotype-specific restriction-site-associated DNA-derived markers for pineapple (Ananas comosus L.).

Project description:To explore genome-wide DNA polymorphisms and identify DNA markers for leaf margin phenotypes, a restriction-site-associated DNA sequencing analysis was employed to analyze three bulked DNAs of F1 progeny from a cross between a 'piping-leaf-type' cultivar, 'Yugafu', and a 'spiny-tip-leaf-type' variety, 'Yonekura'. The parents were both Ananas comosus var. comosus. From the analysis, piping-leaf and spiny-tip-leaf gene-specific restriction-site-associated DNA sequencing tags were obtained and designated as PLSTs and STLSTs, respectively. The five PLSTs and two STSLTs were successfully converted to cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) or simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers using the sequence differences between alleles. Based on the genotyping of the F1 with two SSR and three CAPS markers, the five PLST markers were mapped in the vicinity of the P locus, with the closest marker, PLST1_SSR, being located 1.5 cM from the P locus. The two CAPS markers from STLST1 and STLST3 perfectly assessed the 'spiny-leaf type' as homozygotes of the recessive s allele of the S gene. The recombination value between the S locus and STLST loci was 2.4, and STLSTs were located 2.2 cM from the S locus. SSR and CAPS markers are applicable to marker-assisted selection of leaf margin phenotypes in pineapple breeding.

Cloning and expression analysis of a PISTILLATA homologous gene from pineapple (Ananas comosus L. Merr).

Project description:PISTILLATA (PI)-like genes are crucial regulators of flowering in angiosperms. A homologue of PI, designated as AcPI (Genbank accession number HQ717796), was isolated from pineapple cultivar Comte de Paris by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE). The cDNA sequence of AcPI is 907 bp in length and contains an open reading frame of 594 bp, which encodes a protein of 197 amino acids. The molecular weight was 2.29 kDa and the isoelectric point was 9.28. The alignment showed that AcPI had a high identity with CsPIC2 (78.6%), AoPI (77.4%), OrcPI (75.7%) and HPI2 (72.4%). Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analyses in different tissues showed that the expression pattern of AcPI was different from the B-class genes in eudicots. AcPI was expressed in all the tissues investigated. The expression level was very low in fruit stems, bracts, leaves and sepals, high in petals and carpels, and moderate in apical meristems, flesh and stamens. The qRT-PCR analyses in different stages indicated that the expression of AcPI reached the highest level at 40 days after flower inducement, when the multiple fruit and floral organs were forming. It proved the important role of AcPI in floral organs and fruit development. The 35S::AcPI transgenic Arabidopsis plants flowered earlier and had more inflorescences or branches than wild type plants.

Genomic Survey, Characterization, and Expression Profile Analysis of the SBP Genes in Pineapple (Ananas comosus L.).

Project description:Gene expression is regulated by transcription factors, which play many significant developmental processes. SQUAMOSA promoter-binding proteins (SBP) perform a variety of regulatory functions in leaf, flower, and fruit development, plant architecture, and sporogenesis. 16 SBP genes were identified in pineapple and were divided into four groups on basis of phylogenetic analysis. Five paralogs in pineapple for SBP genes were identified with Ka/Ks ratio varied from 0.20 for AcSBP14 and AcSBP15 to 0.36 for AcSBP6 and AcSBP16, respectively. 16 SBP genes were located on 12 chromosomes out of 25 pineapple chromosomes with highly conserved protein sequence structures. The isoionic points of SBP ranged from 6.05 to 9.57, while molecular weight varied from 22.7 to 121.9?kD. Expression profiles of SBP genes revealed that AcSBP7 and AcSBP15 (leaf), AcSBP13, AcSBP12, AcSBP8, AcSBP16, AcSBP9, and AcSBP11 (sepal), AcSBP6, AcSBP4, and AcSBP10 (stamen), AcSBP14, AcSBP1, and AcSBP5 (fruit) while the rest of genes showed low expression in studied tissues. Four genes, that is, AcSBP11, AcSBP6, AcSBP4, and AcSBP12, were highly expressed at 4°C, while AcSBP16 were upregulated at 45°C. RNA-Seq was validated through qRT-PCR for some genes. Salt stress-induced expression of two genes, that is, AcSBP7 and AcSBP14, while in drought stress, AcSBP12 and AcSBP15 were highly expressed. Our study lays a foundation for further gene function and expression studies of SBP genes in pineapple.

Identification and expression analysis of the DREB transcription factor family in pineapple (Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.).

Project description:Background:Dehydration responsive element-binding (DREB) transcription factors play a crucial role in plant growth, development and stress responses. Although DREB genes have been characterized in many plant species, genome-wide identification of the DREB gene family has not yet been reported in pineapple (Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.). Results:Using comprehensive genome-wide screening, we identified 20 AcoDREB genes on 14 chromosomes. These were categorized into five subgroups. AcoDREBs within a group had similar gene structures and domain compositions. Using gene structure analysis, we showed that most AcoDREB genes (75%) lacked introns, and that the promoter regions of all 20 AcoDREB genes had at least one stress response-related cis-element. We identified four genes with high expression levels and six genes with low expression levels in all analyzed tissues. We detected expression changes under abiotic stress for eight selected AcoDREB genes. Conclusions:This report presents the first genome-wide analysis of the DREB transcription factor family in pineapple. Our results provide preliminary data for future functional analysis of AcoDREB genes in pineapple, and useful information for developing new pineapple varieties with key agronomic traits such as stress tolerance.

SSR markers developed using next-generation sequencing technology in pineapple, <i>Ananas comosus</i> (L.) Merr.

Project description:Simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers provide a reliable tool for the identification of accessions and the construction of genetic linkage maps because of their co-dominant inheritance. In the present study, we developed new SSR markers with next-generation sequencing using the Roche 454 GS FLX+ platform. Five hundred SSR primer sets were tested for the genetic identification of pineapple, including 100 each for the di-, tri-, tetra-, penta-, and hexa-nucleotide motif SSRs. In total, 160 SSR markers successfully amplified fragments and exhibited polymorphism among accessions. The SSR markers revealed the number of alleles per locus (ranging from 2 to 13), the expected heterozygosity (ranging from 0.041 to 0.823), and the observed heterozygosity (ranging from 0 to 0.875). A total of 117 SSR markers with tri- or greater nucleotide motifs were shown to be effective at facilitating accurate genotyping. Using the SSR markers, 25 accessions were distinguished genetically, with the exception of accessions 'MD-2' and 'Yonekura'. The developed SSR markers could facilitate the establishment of efficient and accurate genetic identification systems and the construction of genetic linkage maps in the future.

Comprehensive tissue-specific transcriptome profiling of pineapple (Ananas comosus) and building an eFP-browser for further study.

Project description:Pineapple is one of the most economically important tropical or subtropical fruit trees. However, few studies focus on the development of its unique collective fruit. In this study, we generated a genome-wide developmental transcriptomic profile of 14 different tissues of the collective fruit of the pineapple covering each of the three major fruit developmental stages. In total, 273 tissue-specific and 1,051 constitutively expressed genes were detected. We also performed gene co-expression analysis and 18 gene modules were classified. Among these, we found three interesting gene modules; one was preferentially expressed in bracts and sepals and was likely involved in plant defense; one was highly expressed at the beginning of fruit expansion and faded afterward and was probably involved in endocytosis; Another gene module increased expression level with pineapple fruit development and was involved in terpenoid and polyketide metabolism. In addition, we built a pineapple electronic fluorescent pictograph (eFP) browser to facilitate exploration of gene expression during pineapple fruit development. With this tool, users can visualize expression data in this study in an intuitive way. Together, the transcriptome profile generated in this work and the corresponding eFP browser will facilitate further study of fruit development in pineapple.
