Project description:This study describes physiological changes, morphological adaptations and the regulation of pathogen defense responses in Arabidopsis crown galls. Crown gall development was induced on intact plants under most natural conditions with Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Differential gene expression and the metabolite pattern was determined by comparing crown galls with mock-inoculated inflorescence stalk segments of the same age. Experiment Overall Design: The bases of Arabidopsis thaliana (WS-2) inflorescence stalks were wounded and immediately inoculated with Agrobacterium tumefaciens, strain C58, or mock-inoculated. Plants were cultivated for another 35 days under short day conditions (8 h illumination, 16 h darkness). Gene expression values of four independent experiments of treated material (C58 35dpi 1 to 4) were compared with four non-treated samples of the same age (reference 35dpi 1 to 4). Differential gene expression was analyzed by applying the LIMMA package (Linear Models for Microarray Data; Smyth, G.K. (2004) Applic. Genet. Mol. Biol. 3, Article 3; http://www.bepress.com/sagmb/vol3/iss1/art3/).

Project description:The intention of these gene expression analysis was to study host responses to an infection with Agrobacterium tumefaciens at different stages of crown gall development. Therefore the transcriptome of infected inflorescence stalk tissue and mature crown galls of Arabidopsis thaliana (WS-2) was determined of three different time points. These were compared with the transcriptome of mock-infected inflorescence stalk tissue (reference) of the same age. The following time points were analyzed: (i) three hours post inoculation, before the T-DNA is integrated into the host genome (ii) six days after inoculation when the T-DNA is present in the nucleus and the oncogenes are expressed in the host cell, and (iii) 35 days after inoculation when a mature tumors has developed. For the three-hour- (3hpi) and six-day- time point (6dpi) plants were infected with the virulent strain C58, harboring a T-DNA, or with strain GV3101, containing a disarmed Ti-plasmid. This allows discrimination between signals which derive from the bacterial pathogen and the T-DNA encoded oncogenes. This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series:; GSE13929: Arabidopsis thaliana three hours after infection with Agrobacterium tumefaciens; GSE13930: Arabidopsis thaliana six days after infection with Agrobacterium tumefaciens; GSE13927: Transcriptome of mature A. thaliana crown galls. Experiment Overall Design: Refer to individual Series

Project description:Integration of the bacterial T-DNA into the plant genome by virulent agrobacteria causes crown gall development on many plant species. Plant tumor development shares fundamental similarities with mammalian cancer progression despite obvious differences in initiation of tumor development. For neoplastic growth in mammals, DNA methylation changes are known to be essential. The role of epigenetic modifications for plant tumor development is addressed here. Genome-wide comparison of methylation profiles of Arabidopsis crown galls and tumor-free tissue revealed 2,876 annotated genes that were affected by differential methylation. Thereof, 1,822 genes were hit by hypermethylated regions and 1,100 genes overlapped with hypomethylated regions (sum of hyper-and hypomethylated genes is higher than the number of affected genes because one gene may contain several differentially methylated regions [DMRs]). DMRs found to be methylated only in tumor-free tissue covered 275 kb of the genome, whereas those methylated only in crown galls total to 560 kb. Contrary to the globally hypermethylated tumor genome, promoter regions of protein coding genes appeared to be rather hypomethylated. In contrast, mammalian cancer cells are associated with global hypomethylation and local hypermethylation of gene promoters. In summary, while aberrant DNA methylation in mammals increases malignacy of the cancer phenotype, our results indicate that methylation events in the plant genome rather confine tumor growth.

Project description:Agrobacterium tumefaciens, a bacterial species found in temperate soils world wide, is the causative agent of crown gall disease on many plants. A. tumefaciens-induced tumours are feared in orchards and vineyards because of their pathological interference with nutrient and water supply which results in crop decline. Small wounds at the crown of the plant, usually induced by wind-bending, are potential entry sites for the bacterium. The tumorous growth is initiated by the integration and expression of the T-DNA of the bacterial Ti plasmid within the plant nuclear DNA. The T-DNA encodes enzymes catalysing the synthesis of increased concentrations of auxin and cytokinin, and of opines which stimulate cell division and enlargement. The fast growing tumours have been shown to be a strong nutrient sink on their host plants. As a matter of fact, sugar and K+ content were found to be up to 10- and 5-fold, respectively, higher in this tissue and transpiration was about 15 times increased compared to normal tissue. Whereas the morphological structure as well as some physiological and biochemical parameters of the tumour have been analysed in detail, little is known about the underlying gene expression pattern. Proliferation and growth of the tumour induced by Agrobacterium tumefaciens is obviously due to the extraordinary high concentration of phytohormons, minerals and metabolites. Their influence on regulation of gene transcription will provide information on the mechanisms underlying fast tumour growth. In a project funded by the DFG we recently started to investigate the role of solute transporter for tumour development on the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. By comparing the expression pattern of RNA preparations from Arabidopsis tumour and non-tumour tissue, we will be able to identify genes which facilitate crown gall development. For the expression analysis with an Affymetrix full genome chip we will induce tumours at the base of an injured Arabidopsis inflorescence stalk (var. Wassilewskija, WS-2). RNA will be extraxted from tumour and injured non-tumor inflorescence stalk tissue using the RNeasy Plant Mini Kit (Qiagen), followed by a DNase treatment to eliminate DNA contamination.

Project description:Oak galls form when gall wasps lay their eggs into part of the tree; in some galls, this attachment point to the host consists of only a few cells. The gall itself comprises entirely of host tissue; however, the initiation, development, and physical appearance are controlled by the inducer. This raises the intriguing question of the molecular mechanisms underlying gall formation, by which one or a small number of cells are reprogrammed and commit to a novel developmental path. Gall wasps undergo two generations each year, and the galls formed by these two generations exhibit markedly different appearances. We sequenced the transcriptomes of both the sexual and asexual generations of Neuropterus quercusbaccarum and Neuroterus numismalis. The transcriptomes of the generations that occur at the same time of year are more similar to each other than they are to the opposite generation of their respective species.

Project description:By sequencing small RNAs from uninfected Arabidopsis roots and from galls seven and 14 days post infection with Meloidogyne incognita, we sequenced by SOLiD technology the RNA fraction below 50nt. We identified 24 miRNAs differentially expressed in gall as putative regulators of gall development.
