Project description:The Lamiaceae family contains numerous diterpenoids, offering a valuable model system for the study of diterpenoid chemical diversity. In this study we report that the ent-kaurene diterpenoids in I. rubescens have the largest diTPS gene family identified in Lamiaceae. Three genes are predicted to be involved in ent-kaurene diterpenoid synthesis while another two KSL genes are functional enzymes utilizing ent-CPP as a substrate. We also showed the presence of a normal-CPP mediated biosynthesis pathway in I. rubescens and that three KSL genes possessing different domain architectures are involved in this pathway. This study provides new information regarding the understanding of diterpenoid chemical diversity and this compounds’ evolution in the Lamiaceae family.

Project description:Plant height is a critical constituent of plant architecture. Rice (Oryza sativa) plants have the potential to undergo rapid internodal elongation, which determines plant height. A number of physiological studies have proved that gibberellin is involved in internode elongation. Leucine-rich repeat receptor-like kinases (LRR-RLKs) are the largest subfamily of transmembrane receptor-like kinases in plants. Plant LRR-RLKs play important functions in mediating a variety of cellular processes and regulating responses to environmental signals. LRK1, a PSK receptor homolog, is a member of the LRR-RLK family. In the present study, differences in ectopic expression of LRK1 were consistent with extent of rice internode elongation. Analyses of gene expression demonstrated that LRK1 restricts gibberellin responsiveness during the internode elongation process by down-regulation of the gibberellin biosynthetic gene, ent-KAURENE OXIDASE (OsKO2). Leaf tissues of 6-week-old LRK1 060615 transgenic rice and control 9311 rice (10 plants each) were selected.

Project description:In order to elucidate the molecular mechanism of gibberellin (GA)-induced mesocotyl elongation, gene expression profiling analyses were performed in a deep-sowing tolerant maize inbred line 3681-4. Gene expression studies combing Affymetrix GeneChip analysis and Real-time PCR were employed to determine the molecular mechanism underlying GA promotion of maize mesocotyl elongation. These studies showed that the GA receptor GID1, the transcriptional factor MYB, and the genes encoding DELLA protein DWRF8, kinases, Raf, LRR, RLCK, and involved in flavonoid biosynthesis, aminosugars metabolism, cell wall synthesis and modification, might play critical roles in maize mesocotyl elongation. In two independent experiments, we generate 10-day-old maize mesocotyl-specific gene expression profiles through comparing genome-wide expression patterns of GA3 treatment and UCZ (a GA biosynthesis inhibitor) treatment under 20 cm deep-sowing condition in darkness by using 17,555 Affymetrix maize whole genome array.

Abstract:
The hormone gibberellin (GA) is a key regulator of plant growth. Many of the components of the gibberellin signal transduction [e.g., GIBBERELLIN INSENSITIVE DWARF 1 (GID1) and DELLA], biosynthesis [e.g., GA 20-oxidase (GA20ox) and GA3ox], and deactivation pathways have been identified. Gibberellin binds its receptor, GID1, to form a complex that mediates the degradation of DELLA proteins. In this way, gibberellin relieves DELLA-dependent growth repression. However, gibberellin regulates expression of GID1, GA20ox, and GA3ox, and there is also evidence that it regulates DELLA expression. In this paper, we use integrated mathematical modeling and experiments to understand how these feedback loops interact to control gibberellin signaling. Model simulations are in good agreement with in vitro data on the signal transduction and biosynthesis pathways and in vivo data on the expression levels of gibberellin-responsive genes. We find that GA-GID1 interactions are characterized by two timescales (because of a lid on GID1 that can open and close slowly relative to GA-GID1 binding and dissociation). Furthermore, the model accurately predicts the response to exogenous gibberellin after a number of chemical and genetic perturbations. Finally, we investigate the role of the various feedback loops in gibberellin signaling. We find that regulation of GA20ox transcription plays a significant role in both modulating the level of endogenous gibberellin and generating overshoots after the removal of exogenous gibberellin. Moreover, although the contribution of other individual feedback loops seems relatively small, GID1 and DELLA transcriptional regulation acts synergistically with GA20ox feedback.

Project description:Kappaphycus alvarezii seaweed extract (KSWE) has been known for its plant biostimulant and stress alleviation activities on various crops. However, very few reports are available depicting its impact at the molecular level, which is crucial in identifying the mechanism of action of KSWE on plants. Here, maize leaf tissue of control and KSWE treated plants were analyzed for their transcriptional changes under drought stress. KSWE was applied foliarly at the V5 stage of maize crop under drought and leaf transcriptome analysis was performed. It was found that total of 380 and 631 genes were up- and down- regulated, respectively due to the application of KSWE. Genes involved in nitrate transportation, signal transmission, photosynthesis, transmembrane transport of various ions, glycogen and starch biosynthetic processes were found up-regulated in KSWE treated plants. While genes involved in the catabolism of polysaccharide molecules such as starch as well as cell wall macromolecules like chitin and protein degradation were found down-regulated. An overview of differentially expressed genes involved in metabolic as well as regulatory processes in KSWE treated plant was also analyzed via Mapman tool. Phytohormone signaling genes such as cytokinin-independent 1 (involved in cytokine signal transduction), Ent-kaurene synthase and GA20 oxidase (involved in gibberellin synthesis) and gene of 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase enzyme activity (involved in ethylene synthesis) were found up-regulated while 9-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase (a gene involved in abscisic acid synthesis) was found down regulated due to the application of KSWE. Modulation of gene expression in maize leaf tissue in response to KSWE treatment elucidate mechanisms to ward off drought stress which can be extended to understand similar phenomenon in other crops as well. . This molecular knowledge can be utilized to make the use of KSWE more efficient and sustainable.

Project description:The action of natural selection across heterogeneous natural landscapes drives local adaptation and the formation of plant ecotypes, the precursors to new species. Plant ecotypes typically differ greatly in morphology, physiology, and development, yet we have a poor understanding of the underlying genetic basis of this divergence. Despite their importance, studies of the molecular underpinnings of ecotypic divergence through developmental stages are rare. In this study, we compared gene expression at different developmental time points between two locally adapted populations derived from the coastal perennial and inland annual ecotypes of the yellow monkeyflower, Mimulus guttatus. We conducted gene co-expression network analyses to identify putative genetic and molecular mechanisms driving ecotypic divergence and evaluated gene ontology enrichment. Overall, we found significant global expression differences between the ecotypes and among developmental stages. We also found evidence to support the hypothesis that interacting hormone pathways, especially the gibberellin and jasmonic acid pathways, may play a key role in annual versus perennial ecotype divergence. Further, genes within known chromosomal inversions were more likely to be differentially expressed than genes in colinear regions, but only in leaves and not for floral buds. Collectively, our results reinforce our existing hypotheses about how ecotype formation has occurred in this system through shifts in hormone biosynthesis/signaling and help advance our understanding of the evolution of annuality versus perenniality in plants.

Project description:Iron is essential for many cellular processes and is required by bacteria for replication. To acquire iron from the host, pathogenic Gram-negative bacteria secrete siderophores, including Enterobactin (Ent). However, Ent is bound by the host protein Lipocalin 2 (Lcn2), preventing bacterial reuptake of aferric or ferric Ent. In two experiments we treated A549 (lung cancer cell line) cells with Lcn2, Ent, and iron, alone and in combination. In experiment 1, biological duplicates of 4 conditions were used: PBS control, Lcn2, Lcn2+Ent, and Lcn2+Ent+iron. In experiment 2, 4 biological replicates of 4 conditions were used: PBS control, Ent, iron, and Ent+iron. Targets made from the samples were hybridized to Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays to measure transcript abundances. The RMA algorithm was used to estimate transcript levels. Replicate samples were exchangeable, so we fit one-way ANOVA models to log2-transformed data separately to each experiment, and tested for pairwise differences between groups in each experiment, as well as asking if the Ent vs. PBS differences were larger or smaller than the Ent+iron vs. iron differences (Ent by iron interactions). We report results for 29096 probe-sets that were not annotated as positive or negative controls on the array. A supplementary Excel workbook is provided that contains the estimated expression level, some probe-set annotation, and simple statistical analysis for each probe-set. It may be convenient for some users, however obtaining newer probe-set annotation may be advisable. A549 (ATCC CCL-185) cells, a human type II pneumocyte cell line, were cultured in F12K (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) media supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Invitrogen) and 1:100 penicillin streptomycin (Invitrogen). 24-well plates were seeded with A549 cells at a concentration of 35000 cells/well. After two days, cells were weaned from serum and antibiotics overnight. Cells were then stimulated overnight with the indicated combinations of 50 uM Ferric ammonium citrate (FAC) (Sigma, St. Louis, MO), 50 um Ent (Sigma or EMC Microcollections, Tubingen, Germany), and/or 25 uM lipocalin 2 (Lcn2) in F12K media lacking serum or antibiotics. Prior to incubation with cells, siderophore-Lcn2 complexes were prepared by sequential incubation at room temperature of FAC and Ent for 30 minutes followed by addition of Lcn2 and incubation for an additional 30 minutes. In experiment 1, 2 biological replicates of each of these 4 conditions were grown: PBS, 25 uM lipocalin 2 (Lcn2), a combination of 25 uM Lcn2 with 50 uM Enterobactin (Ent), and a combination of Lcn2, Ent and 50 uM Ferric Ammonium Citrate (FAC). In experiment 2, 4 biological replicates of each of these 4 conditions were grown: PBS, 50 uM Ent, 50 uM FAC, and a combination of 50 uM Ent and 50 uM FAC. Cells were harvested and RNA was extracted using an miRNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen). Biotinylated cDNA targets were prepared according to the Ambion WT expression kit protocol from 150 ng total RNA. There are no batches within each experiment - the samples in each group are exchangeable. Targets were hybridized to Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays. Arrays were scanned and quantified by usual procedures, and transcript abundances for 29096 non-control probe-sets estimated by an RMA algorithm.
