Verticillium dahliae disease resistance and the regulatory pathway for maturity and tuberization in potato

ABSTRACT: Purpose: Verticillium dahliae is a fungal plant pathogen. The goals of the study are to examine gene networks involved in controlling resistance to V. dahliae in potato using expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) mapping. Methods: 91 clones from a diploid potato mapping population 15143 and the parental lines 07506-01 and 12120-03 from the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada were propagated in a V. dahliae-infested field in triplicate plots of five plants in a randomized complete block design. Tetraploid varieties Shepody, Hindenburg, Kennebec, Russet Burbank, Atlantic and Green Mountain were planted similarly and included in the analysis. Green Mountain was also planted in additional plots and used a guard row clone. Leaf samples were taken at 70 days after planting. Two µg of total RNA per sample was used to construct DeepSAGE tag libraries using a modification to facilitate direct sequencing of the amplicons by Illumina sequencing. The samples from 91 clones were bar-coded with a different identification key. Samples were diluted to a final concentration of 10 nM and were pooled. Each of the three biological replicates was done in a separate pool. Final pool concentrations were estimated using Quant-iT-PicoGreen prior to template DNA hybridization and sequencing on an Illumina Genome Analyzer II according to the manufacturer's instructions. Results: Tag count data were transformed to the relative unit of counts per million. Tags included in the analysis had to be present in at least one biological replicate. Clonal variation between samples was detected (p-value ≤ 0.05) using the exact test for a negative binomial distribution . Tags that did not have significant clonal variation were removed, leaving 6248 tags. The LS mean of tag count was calculated for each tag for each clone. The 21-nt tag sequences were aligned against PGSC S. tuberosum group Phureja DM1-3 transcripts (v3.4) using blastn. Hits with E-value ≤ 0.5 were filtered in. Where there were multiple blast hits meeting E-value criteria, only the one with the longest alignment was included. 4198 tags were assigned single-hit annotations in this manner and were used for eQTL analysis. Conclusions: The results indicated that for most genes the eQTL controlling expression was mapped near the gene (cis-eQTL). There were also many trans-eQTLs, where were eQTLs for a gene that were found on another chromosome particularly on chromosome 5.

Project description:Purpose: the technology of Solexa/Illumina (RNA-seq) is an attractive alternative to the transcriptome sequencing. The goals of this study are to investigate transcriptional changes in replanted R. glutinosa leaves and identify genes responding to the disease. Methods:Totally 6.01and 6.15 million raw tags were measured from leaves of the first year planted (L1) and the second year replanted R. glutinosa (L2) at the tuberous root expansion stage, respectively. mRNA profiles of leaves of the first year planted (L1) and the second year replanted R. glutinosa (L2) at the tuberous root expansion stage, were generated by deep sequencing (Illumina HiSeqâ¢ 2000 system). qRTâPCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays. Results: we obtained a total of 6.01 and 6.15 million total tags including 377,200 and 361,659 distinct tags from the L1 and L2 samples, respectively. Removal of low quality tags, 161,298 and 149,290 distinct clean tags were remained.With reference to the 94,544 non-redundant consensus sequences defined by the RNA-seq transcriptomic procedure, 60,574 genes had the diagnostic CATG site, which were taken as reference distinct sequences for DGE analysis. 47,458 of the L1 tag library and 42,247 of the L2 tag library were perfectly matched the reference sequences. we screened differentially expressed genes in the L1 and L2 libraries by digital gene expression (DGE) technique. Finally, a set of 1,954 genes may be in differential expression of L2. By bioinformatics and qRT-PCR, the 117 most strongly differentially expressed ones were considered to be prime candidates for responsible for replanting disease. Conclusions: The study provides an important resource for further investigating the cause of replanting disease and developing the methods to control or subtract its injury. Leaf mRNA profiles of L1 (The first year planted R. glutinosa leaves ) and L2 (the second year replanted R. glutinosa leaves) root expansion stage were generated by deep sequencing (using Illumina HiSeqâ¢ 2000 system)

Project description:Analyses of QTLs for expression levels (eQTLs) of the genes reveal genetic relationship between expression variation and the regulator, thus unlocking the information for identifying the regulatory network. Oligo-nucleotide expression microarrays hybridized with RNA can simultaneously provide data for molecular markers and transcript abundance. In this study, we used Affymetrix GeneChip Rice Genome Array to analyze eQTLs in rice shoots at 72 h after germination from 110 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross between Zhenshan 97 and Minghui 63. Totally 1,632 single feature polymorphisms (SFPs) plus 23 PCR markers were identified and placed into 601 recombinant bins, spanning 1,459 cM in length, which were used as markers to genotype the RILs. We obtained 16,372 expression traits (e-traits) each with at least one eQTL, resulting in 26,051 eQTLs in total, including both cis- and trans-eQTLs. We also identified 171 eQTL hotspots among rice genome, each of which controls transcript variations of many e-traits. Gene Ontology analysis revealed enrichment of certain functional categories of genes in some of the eQTL hotspots. In particular, eQTLs for e-traits involving DNA metabolic process was significantly enriched in several eQTL hotspots on chromosomes 3, 5 and 10. Several transcription factors colocalizing with cis-eQTLs showed significant correlations with hundreds of e-traits, indicating possible co-regulation. We also detected correlations between the QTLs for shoot dry weight and eQTLs, revealing possible candidate genes for the trait. These results provided the clues for identification and characterization of regulatory network in the whole genome at the transcriptional level. To dissect the genetic variation between the two rice indica varieties Minghui 63 and Zhenshan 97, a total of 110 RILs from Minghui 63 and Zhenshan 97 and parents were sampled. And the Affymetrix Genechip rice Genome Array was used to investigate their dynamic transcript levels. Two independent biological replicates were sampled from each RIL, and three replicates for each parent.resulting in a dataset of 226 microarrays.
