Characterization of imprinted genes in rice reveals regulation and imprinting conservation at some loci in plant species

ABSTRACT: Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon by which certain genes display differential expression in a parent-of-origin-dependent manner. Hundreds of imprinted genes have been identified from several plant species. Here we identified, with a high level of confidence, 208 imprinted candidates from rice. Imprinted genes of rice showed limited association to the transposable elements, which contrasts with findings from Arabidopsis. Generally, imprinting in rice is conserved within species, but intraspecific variation was detected as well.

Natural epigenetic polymorphisms lead to intraspecific variation in Arabidopsis gene imprinting: BS-seq of Arabidopsis thaliana Col, Ler, and Cvi parental and reciprocal F1 hybrid embryo and endosperm

Project description:Imprinted gene expression occurs during seed development in plants and is associated with differential DNA methylation of parental alleles, particularly at proximal transposable elements (TEs). Imprinting variability could contribute to observed parent-of-origin effects on seed development. We investigated intraspecific variation in imprinting, coupled with analysis of DNA methylation and small RNAs, among three Arabidopsis strains with diverse seed phenotypes. The majority of imprinted genes were parentally biased in the same manner among all strains. However, we identified several examples of allele-specific imprinting correlated with intraspecific epigenetic variation at a TE. We successfully predicted imprinting in additional strains based on methylation variability. We conclude that there is standing variation in imprinting even in recently diverged genotypes due to intraspecific epiallelic variation. These data demonstrate that epiallelic variation and genomic imprinting intersect to produce novel gene expression patterns in seeds. Whole genome bisulfite sequencing of embryo and endosperm (14 samples).

A variably imprinted epiallele impacts seed development

Project description:The contribution of epigenetic variation to phenotypic variation is unclear. Imprinted genes, because of their strong association with epigenetic modifications, represent an opportunity for the discovery of such phenomena. In mammals and flowering plants, a subset of genes are expressed from only one parental allele in a process called gene imprinting. Imprinting is associated with differential DNA methylation and chromatin modifications between parental alleles. In flowering plants imprinting occurs in endosperm seed tissue. Proper endosperm development is essential for the production of viable seeds. We previously showed that in Arabidopsis thaliana intraspecific imprinting variation is correlated with naturally occurring DNA methylation polymorphisms. Here, we investigated the mechanisms and function of allele-specific imprinting of the class IV homeodomain-Leucine zipper (HD-ZIP) transcription factor HDG3. In imprinted strains, HDG3 is expressed primarily from the methylated paternally inherited allele. We manipulated the methylation state of endogenous HDG3 in a non-imprinted strain and demonstrated that methylation of a proximal transposable element is sufficient to promote HDG3 expression and imprinting. Gain of HDG3 imprinting was associated with earlier endosperm cellularization. These results indicate that epigenetic variation alone is sufficient to explain imprinting variation and show that epialleles can underlie variation in seed development phenotypes.

Divergence among rice cultivars reveals roles for transposition and epimutation in ongoing evolution of genomic imprinting

Project description:To understand the evolution of imprinting mechanisms in the rice species Oryza sativa, we analyzed DNA methylation, transcription and small RNA expression in embryo and endosperm. Cultivars chosen to represent the genetic diversity of cultivated Oryza sativa comprised Nipponbare and Kitaake of the japonica subspecies, and IR64 and 93-11 cultivars of the indica subspecies. While imprinted expression is generally conserved among rice cultivars, approximately 10% of imprinted genes show imprinting divergence across the four cultivars. Analyses of DNA methylation and small RNAs revealed that small RNA producing loci are closely associated with genic regions and four times more likely to be imprinted than genes. However, imprinting divergence most often correlated with DNA methylation epimutations. Correlative epialleles were largely stable within subspecies. Small indels and transposable element insertions were found at half of the epimutated loci and associated with imprinting divergence at half of the remaining loci. Correlating epigenetic and genetic variation occurred at key regulatory regions – the promoter and transcription start site of maternally-biased genes, and the promoter and gene body of paternally-biased genes. Our results reinforce models for the role of maternal-specific DNA hypomethylation in imprint formation at both maternally and paternally biased genes, and highlight the role of transposition events and epimutation in rice imprinting evolution.

Natural epigenetic polymorphisms lead to intraspecific variation in Arabidopsis gene imprinting: allele specific mRNA-seq expression profiling in Arabidopsis thaliana Col, Ler, and Cvi parental and reciprocal F1 hybrid embryo and endosperm

Project description:Imprinted gene expression occurs during seed development in plants and is closely tied to differential DNA methylation of maternal and paternal alleles, particularly at proximal transposable elements (TEs). Since the epigenetic modification of TEs can vary within species, we investigated intraspecific variation in imprinting, coupled with analysis of DNA methylation and small RNAs, among three strains of Arabidopsis that display diverse seed size phenotypes. Unexpectedly we found that one strain, Cvi, is globally CG hypomethylated. We discovered three examples of strain-specific imprinting caused by epigenetic variation at a TE. Our data allowed us to predict and experimentally validate an instances of allele-specific imprinting in additional strains based only on methylation patterns. We conclude that numerous differences in imprinting can evolve in highly similar, recently diverged genotypes due to epiallelic variation present within the species. Our data demonstrate that epiallelic variation and genomic imprinting intersect to produce novel gene expression patterns in seeds. Examination of parent-of-origin specific and total gene expression in embryo, endosperm, and whole seeds. Samples with the same heading are biological replicates (e.g. CVN1, CVN2, and CVN3).

Both maternally and paternally imprinted genes regulate seed development in rice

Project description:Genetic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon that describes unequal expression of paternal and maternal alleles of a gene in sexually reproducing organisms including mammals and flowering plants. The function of imprinted genes was rarely reported. We report genome-wide analysis of gene expression, DNA methylation, and small RNAs in the rice endosperm and functional tests of five imprinted genes in seed development using CRISPR/Cas9 editing technology. We identified 162 maternally expressed genes(MEGs) and 95 paternally expressed genes (PEGs) in the rice endosperm, which were associated with miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements, imprinted differentially methylated loci, and some 21-22-siRNAs and lncRNAs. Remarkably, one-third of MEGs and nearly half of PEGs were associated with grain-yield quantitative trait loci and enriched in the endosperm-expressed genes. Disrupting two MEGs increased the amount of small starch granules and reduced grain size, weight, and embryo size, while mutating three PEGs reduced starch content and seed fertility. Our data support both MEGs and PEGs in rice are required for starch and nutrient accumulation, mediating offspring fitness and optimal seed size. This imprinting strategy provides potential means for improving grain yield of rice and other cereal crops.
