Project description:Pink-flowered strawberry is a new promising ornamental flower derived from intergeneric hybridization (Fragaria × Potentilla) with bright color, prolonged flowering period and edible fruits. However, the transcriptional events underlying anthocyanins biosynthesis pathway have not been fully characterized in its petal coloration. The pigment compounds accumulated in its fruits were the same as cultivated strawberry, but different from in its flowers. To gain insights into the regulatory networks related to anthocyanin biosynthesis and identify key genes, we performed an integrated analyses of the transcriptome and metabolomes involved in red petals at three development stages (Bud stage (L), Coloration beginning stage (Z) and Big bud stage (D)) of pink-flowered strawberry. Transcript and metabolite profiles were generated through high-throughput RNA-sequencing and high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry, respectively. The results showed that the main pigments of red and dark pink petals were anthocyanins, among which cyanidins were the main compounds. There were no anthocyanins detected in white-flowered hybrids. A total of 50 285 non-redundant unigenes were obtained from the transcriptome databases, among which 59 differentially expressed genes could be identified as putative homologues of flower coloration related genes. Based on a comprehensive analysis relating pigmentation compounds to gene expression profiles, the mechanism of flower color formation was examined in pink-flowered strawberry. Furthermore, a new hypothesis explaining the lack of color phenotype of the white-flowered strawberry hybrids from the level of the transcriptome. The expression patterns of FpDFR gene and FpANS gene corresponded to the accumulation patterns of cyanidin contents in pink-flowered strawberry hybrids with different shades of pink; Whereas other anthocyanin biosynthesis genes were weakly related flower color deepened. Moreover, FpANS, FpBZ1 and FpUGT75C1 genes were the key factors that lead to the inability to accumulate anthocyanins in the white petals of PFS hybrids. Meanwhile, the competitive effect of FpFLS gene and FpDFR gene may further inhibit anthocyanin synthesis. The data presented herein are important for understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the petal pigmentation and will be powerful for integrating into novel genes that are potential targets for breeding new valuable pink-flowered strawberry cultivars.

Project description:The pink-flowered strawberry is very popular in China due to its appreciation and economic benefits and its flower has rich red petal with varying degrees, which is provided by anthocyanins accumulation. To better understand the functions of miRNAs, sRNAome, transcriptome and degradome sequencing were used to explore the target genes of miRNAs in flower development and coloring of pink-flowered strawberry. Nine small RNA libraries and a mixed degradome library from flower petals at different developmental stages were constructed and sequenced in this study. A total of 739 known miRNAs and 964 newly identified miRNAs were identified via small RNA sequencing, and their 2816 target genes were cleaved by 639 miRNAs based on the degradome data. There were 317 different expression miRNAs among flower development in pink-flowered strawberry regulated 2134 different expression target genes, which significantly enriched in the transcriptional regulation, phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and plant hormone signal transduction. Furthermore, integrated microRNAomic and transcriptomic analyses suggested that 98 miRNAs were targeted several transcription factors related to anthocyanin accumulation, in which 26 were targeted to MYBs, 12 bHLHs, 14 NACs, and 19 SPLs. And that, twenty seven different expression miRNAs may affect anthocyanin biosynthesis by regulating 23 targets participated in hormone signal transduction pathway in pink-flowered strawberry. The qRT-PCR analysis confirmed the expression changes of 21 miRNA-target pairs showed an opposite trend. Moreover, a co-expression regulatory network was constructed based on differentially expressed miRNA-targets according to the degradome data. Overall, we conducted a comparative analysis uncovered the regulatory functions of microRNAs in flower development and color changes of pink-flowered strawberry via multiple factors, including anthocyanin biosynthesis, hormone signaling and regulation factors. This work not only expands the knowledge of miRNAs affecting the coloration in strawberry, but also provides rich resources for future functional studies.

Project description:Our results revealed that the initial flowering stage plays a critical role in the color change of MN. Metabolome analysis demonstrated that cyanidin was the primary anthocyanin in SZT and MN’s red region, while its content was low in TZM and MN’s white region. According to the transcriptome analysis, the anthocyanins biosynthesis pathway was reconstructed in Yunnan Camellia, and the low expression of CHS was detected in TZM and MN’s white region, while ANR maintained a high expression level, which may lead to the low content of cyanidin in them. Transcription factors MYBs, bHLH, and bZIP may play a key role in regulating anthocyanin-structural genes. The co-expression analysis showed that the meristem tissue may play a crucial role in the formation of the mixed white-red color in MN.

Project description:Purpose: The present study aimed to investigate the anthocyanin components and identify relevant regulatory genes in purple wheat grain by carrying out transcriptome analyses. Methods: The seeds of purple grain wheat and white grain wheat were collected 30 days after flowering, and three biological replicates were set. Total RNA was isolated and purified using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) following the manufacturer's procedure. The RNA amount and purity of each sample was quantified using NanoDrop ND-1000. Then synthesizing the fragmented RNA into cDNA through the action of reverse transcriptase, and finally obtaining acDNA library. At last, we performed the 2×150bp paired-end sequencing (PE150) on an Illumina Novaseq™ 6000 following the vendor's recommended protocol. Results: A total of 10440 diferentially expressed genes were signifcantly enriched by RNA sequencing. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses revealed signifcantly enriched flavonoid biosynthesis and anthocyanin biosynthesis in CW_S versus W_S. And the ANS and UFGT genes were predicted as core genes in anthocyanin biosynthesis. Conclusions: Our study represents the detailed analysis of wheat grain transcriptomes, with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology. Through this study, we speculated that ANS and UFGT genes are the core genes of anthocyanin biosynthesis.The significant differences of these genes affect the synthesis of anthocyanins in wheat grains, and thus affect the grain color of wheat.

Project description:Genomic instability is a common feature found in cancer cells. Accordingly, many tumor suppressor genes identified in familiar cancer syndromes are involved in the maintenance of the stability of the genome during every cell division, and are commonly referred to as caretakers. Inactivating mutations and epigenetic silencing of caretakers are thought to be the most important mechanism that explains cancer-related genome instability. However, little is known of whether transient inactivation of caretaker proteins could trigger genome instability and, if so, what types of instability would occur. In this work, we show that a brief and reversible inactivation, during just one cell cycle, of the key phosphatase Cdc14 in the model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae is enough to result in diploid cells with multiple gross chromosomal rearrangements and changes in ploidy. Interestingly, we observed that such transient inactivation yields a characteristic fingerprint whereby trisomies are often found in small-sized chromosomes and gross chromosome rearrangements, often associated with concomitant loss of heterozygosity (LOH), are mainly detected on the rDNA-bearing chromosome XII. Taking into account the key role of Cdc14 in preventing anaphase bridges, resetting replication origins and controlling spindle dynamics in a well-defined window within anaphase, we speculate that its transient inactivation causes cells to go through a single mitotic catastrophe with irreversible consequences for the genome stability of the progeny. The details of these experiments are in press in Genetics (Oliver Quevedo, Cristina Ramos-Pérez, Thomas D. Petes, and Félix Machín) but will be described briefly below. The diploid S. cerevisiae strain FM1468 is homozygous for a temperature-sensitive allele of CDC14 which encodes a phosphatase that is important in regulating the cell cycle. The strain was constructed by mating cdc14-1 derivatives of two sequence-diverged haploids, one isogenic with W303-1A (JSC12) and one isogenic with YJM789. The resulting diploid is heterozygous for about 55,000 SNPs (St. Charles, J. and Petes, T. (2013) PLoS Genetics 9: e1003434; PMID 23593029). In addition, the strain is homozygous for the ade2-1 ochre mutation and heterozygous for an insertion of SUP4-o, a gene encoded a tRNA ochre suppressor. The SUP4-o gene is located near the right telomere of chromosome IV and is inserted on the YJM789-derived homolog. The FM1468 strain forms pink colonies because a single copy of SUP4-o partially suppresses the red colony phenotype associated with the ade2 mutation. In the wild-type genetic background, a mitotic crossover between SUP4-o and the centromere of IV produces a red/white sectored colony with the red sector containing no copies of SUP4-o and the white sector containing two copies of SUP4-o (St. Charles and Petes, 2013). To map the position of the crossover and to examine recombination events resulting in loss of heterozygosity (LOH) throughout the genome, we used SNP-specific microarrays (St. Charles et al., 2012; Genetics 190: 1267-1284; PMID 22267500). These arrays contained about 50,000 oligonucleotides, allowing us to monitor LOH at about 13,000 positions in the genome. Each of these single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was represented by four 25-base nucleotides, two for the Watson and Crick strands of the YJM789-derived SNP and two for the Watson and Crick strands of the W303-1A-derived SNP. The sequences and locations of each of these oligonucleotides has been published (St. Charles et al., 2012). As described below, by measuring the level of hybridization to these oligonucleotides, we identified the location of LOH events throughout the genome in FM1468. It should also be noted that the microarrays detect changes in chromosome number in addition to detecting LOH events. A total of 13 sectored colonies were examined. Each colony was given a number and letter indicate the sectors. For example, 1A and 1B are different sectors of one FM1468 colony. The key to the color of these colonies is: 1A (white), 1B (pink); 2A (pink), 2B (red); 3A (white), 3B (pink); 4A (white), 4B (pink); 5A (white), 5B (red); 6A (white), 6B (pink); 7A (white), 7B (pink); 8A (pink), 8B (red); 9A (white), 9B (pink); 10A (white), 10B (pink), 10C (red); 11A (white), 11B (pink), 11C (red); 12A (white), 12B (red); 13A (white), 13B (red). Note that colonies 10 and 11 were tri-colored colonies, and microarrays were done on all three sectors. In summary, microarry analysis was done on 28 sectors derived from 13 colonies.

Project description:Oilseed rape is both an important oleaginous crop and agriculture sightseeing crop whereas has relatively scanty flower color. As natural flavonoids, Anthocyanin are responsible for the attractive red, purple, and blue colors of various tissues in higher plants, especially for the ornamental plants flower. One Brassica napus-Orychophragmus violaceus disomic addition line (M4) obtained previously exhibits red petals whichresult from anthocyanin biosynthesis. Transcriptome analysis of M4, B. napus (H3), natural individuals of O. violaceus with purple petals (OvP) and white petals (OvW) revealed that most of structural genes for the anthocyanin synthesis were up-regulated in both M4 and OvP, especially key gene ANS in the last step. Reads assembling and sequence alignment showed that the regulatory DEG PAP2 in M4 was from the transcript of O. violaceus. OvPAP2 was transformed into Arabidopsis thaliana and B. napus driven by the CaMV35S promoter and the rape petal-specific prompter XY355. Transgenic A. thaliana plants showed different levels of purple pigments in most of the organs, including the petals, and transgenic B. napus flowers exhibited restricted accumulation of anthocyanins in stamens when driven by CaMV35S promoter, but generated both red petals and anthers driven by the XY355 promoter. These results provided a platform for expounding the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway in B. napus petals and give a successful case for flower color modification of the agriculture sightseeing rape.

Project description:Purpose: This study was to explore the underlying molecular mechanism of temperature effects on fruit quality during shelf life. The transcriptome data of peach fruits stored in high temperature (HT, 35 °C) and common temperature (CT, 25 °C) conditions were measured and compared. Methods: Red flesh peach (Prunus persica L. Batsch cv. Tianxianhong) fruits with consistent color, shape and weight were selected and kept at 5 °C for 2 days after the day of harvest. Then, these fruits were randomly divided into two groups. One group was stored at CT for 7 days, and the other was stored at HT for 7 days. During storage, fruits were sampled at day 1, 2 and 3 as early stage as well as day 5, 6 and 7 as later stage. Total RNA of each sample was extracted and used to construct 24 RNA libraries. RNA sequencing was performed on an Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform. The differences in transcriptome, ethylene production, pulp softening of postharvest peach fruits were compared between CT and HT storage conditions Results: Our results showed that HT conditioning after 5 °C is better than CT to maintaining fruit quality during shelf life due to MEKK1-MKK2-MPK4/6 signal transduction and low level of ethylene and auxin biosynthesis enzymes which may affect genes related to softening and membrane stability through ethylene response factors (ERFs) and auxin response factors (ARFs).

Project description:Peel color is a key factor that affects the fruit’s aesthetic and economic values. In Red Sugar pineapple, the peels’ red color reduces during maturation. Limited knowledge is available on the regulation of pineapple peel discoloration, which makes it important to study the molecular mechanisms associated with this important trait. Here, we report that a decrease in anthocyanin biosynthesis is predominantly associated with the pineapple peel color change during maturation. Particularly the exclusive accumulation of cyanidin in 60 days after flowering (DAF) as compared to 120 DAF gives the fruit peel its distinct reddish color. Our findings suggest that the changes in the expression of key structural genes (early and late biosynthetic genes) of the anthocyanin (cyanidin) biosynthesis pathway are responsible for peel discoloration. Based on a gene co-expression analysis and a transient expression, we identified two transcription factors i.e., AcHOX21 and AcMYB12, and showed that their downregulation leads to the reduced anthocyanin accumulation with fruit maturation.

Project description:The role of photosynthesis in fruits still challenges scientists. This is especially true in the case of mature grape berries of red varieties lined by an anthocyanin-enriched exocarp (skin) almost impermeable to gases. Although chlorophylls are degraded and replaced by carotenoids in several fruits, available evidence suggests that they may persist in red grapes at maturity. In the present study, chloroplasts were isolated from the skin of red grape berries (cv. Vinhão) to measure chlorophyll levels and the organelle proteome. The results showed that chloroplasts (and chlorophylls) are maintained in ripe berries masked by anthocyanin accumulation and that the proteome of chloroplasts from green and mature berries is distinct. Several proteins of the light reactions significantly accumulated in chloroplasts at the mature stage, including those of light-harvesting complexes of photosystems I (PSI) and II (PSII), redox chain, and ATP synthase, while chloroplasts at the green stage accumulated more proteins involved in the Calvin cycle and the biosynthesis of amino acids, including precursors of secondary metabolism. Taken together, results suggest that although chloroplasts are more involved in biosynthetic reactions in green berries, at the mature stage, they may provide ATP for energy-demanding processes such as anthocyanin biosynthesis or even O2 to feed the respiratory demand of inner tissues.
