Project description:The quality of the pepper fruit is significantly influenced by the properties of its surface such as color, glossiness and texture. The fruit surface is composed of a peel containing several layers including the cuticle, epidermis and the hypodermis. The peel acts as a protective barrier against biotic and abiotic stresses and is the most critical tissue affecting water loss during post harvest storage. The peel is composed of an outer epidermis with thick waxy (lipid) cuticle and few cell layers of thick-walled hypodermal cells. Despite its agronomic importance and due to the fact that the majority of studies in fruits have been conducted using flesh and peel tissues as a whole, the biochemical and genetic bases of variation in peel properties are largely unknown. In this proposal we aim to determine peel-specific gene expression in pepper by micro array hybridizations of peel and flesh RNA extracted at different developmental stages of the fruit. The cultivar Celica (Capsicum annuum) that has a large blocky fruit will be used for studying gene expression in the peel and flesh. Plants were grown in the greenhouse during the spring of 2006. Fruits were harvested at three developmental stages: young- 10 days after anthesis, mature green- 30 days after anthesis and ripe red- 45 days after anthesis. These stages were chosen because each represents a distinct phase in fruit development. At each stage, a biological replicate consists of bulked tissue from 3 fruits from each of 3 plants (a total of 9 fruits). We have a total of 4 biological replicates. For each fruit, the peel was separated from the flesh by manual dissection using thin forceps and scalpel blade. Peel and flesh samples were immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -800C until RNA extraction. Total RNA was extracted using the GenElute Mammalian Total RNA Miniprep kit (Sigma).

Project description:Background The set of all mRNA molecules present in a cell constitute the transcriptome. The transcriptome varies depending on cell type as well as in response to internal and external stimuli during development. Chili pepper is an economically and culturally important horticultural crop as well as a good model for the study of secondary metabolism during fruit development. Here we present a study of the changes that occur in the transcriptome of chili pepper fruit during development and ripening. Results RNA-Seq was used to obtain transcriptomes of whole Serrano-type chili pepper fruits (Capsicum annuum L.; 'Tampiqueno 74') collected at 10, 20, 40 and 60 days after anthesis (DAA). 15,550,468 Illumina MiSeq reads were assembled de novo into 34,066 chili genes. We classified the expression patterns of individual genes as well as genes grouped into Biological Process ontologies and Metabolic Pathway categories using statistical criteria. For the analyses of gene groups we added the weighted expression of individual genes. This method was effective in interpreting general patterns of expression changes and increased the statistical power of the analyses. Subsets of genes were expressed only at a single time point sampled (1,278, 1,596, 1,519 and 1,583 genes at 10, 20, 40 and 60 DAA, respectively). We also estimated the variation in diversity and specialization of the transcriptome during chili pepper development. Approximately 17% of genes exhibited a significant change of expression in at least one of the intervals sampled. In contrast, significant differences in approximately 63% of the Biological Processes and 80% of the Metabolic Pathways studied were detected in at least one interval. Confirming previous reports, genes related to capsaicinoid and ascorbic acid biosynthesis were significantly upregulated at 20 DAA while those related to carotenoid biosynthesis were highly expressed in the last period of fruit maturation (40-60 DAA). Our RNA-Seq data was validated by examining the expression of nine genes involved in carotenoid biosynthesis by qRT-PCR. Conclusions In general, more profound changes in the chili fruit transcriptome were observed in the intervals between 10 to 20 and 40 to 60 DAA. The last interval, between 40 to 60 DAA, included 49% of all significant changes detected, and was characterized predominantly by a global decrease in gene expression. This period signals the end of maturation and the beginning of senescence of chili pepper fruit. The transcriptome at 60 DAA was the most specialized and least diverse of the four states sampled. RNA-seq libraries of whole chili pepper (Capsicum annuum Serrano 'Tampiqueno 74' landrace) were prepared from fruits at 10, 20, 40 and 60 days after anthesis (DAA). Two biological replicates of each fruit state were prepared (8 libraries in total). Libraries were sequenced in the Illumina MiSeq platform. The title of the libraries are: <DAA>repbio<#> where <DAA> are the days after anthesis (10, 20, 40 or 60) and <#> is the number of biological replicate, 1 or 2. Details follow. Biological material and RNA extraction Capsicum annuum Serrano 'Tampiqueno 74' seeds were germinated and the seedlings were cultivated until maturity under greenhouse conditions in a completely randomized experimental design at Cinvestav-Unidad Irapuato (Guanajuato, Mexico). The plants were grown during the spring and summer, and individual flowers were tagged at anthesis. Chili pepper fruits were randomly collected from different plants at 10, 20, 40 and 60 DAA. After sampling, the fruits were cleaned with ethanol immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80C until further use. For total RNA extractions, 10 fruits at the 10 DAA developmental stage and 5 fruits from each of the 20, 40 and 60 DAA stages were randomly selected from the pool of all harvested fruits. Whole fruits (pericarp, placenta and seeds) were ground in liquid nitrogen with a mortar and pestle to form a fine uniform powder. Samples were mixed vigorously and 100 mg aliquots were measured for each RNA extraction. The process was repeated with different sets of fruits in order to obtain two independent biological replicates at each developmental stage. A NucleoSpin RNA Plant kit (Macherey-Nagel) was used for total RNA extraction and contaminating genomic DNA was removed by DNase I (Macherey-Nagel) treatment following the manufacturers' protocols. Total RNA concentration was quantified using a NanoDrop ND-1000 spectrophotometer (Nano-Drop, Wilmington, DE, USA) and RNA quality was evaluated by gel electrophoresis on 1.0% denaturing agarose gels. In addition, aliquots of RNA were run on an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer using RNA 6000 chips (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA, USA) to test the RNA integrity number (RIN). All eight samples had RIN values higher than 8.7. Thirty ?g of total RNA from each of the eight samples (two biological replicates of four fruit developmental stages) was used for cDNA library preparation. Library construction and sequencing The eight total RNA samples (two biological replicates from chili pepper fruits at 10, 20, 40 and 60 DAA) were prepared for RNA-Seq using the Illumina TruSeq RNA Sample Preparation v2 Guide following the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, mRNA was purified from 20?g of total RNA using poly-T oligo- attached magnetic beads using two rounds of purification. During the second elution of the poly-A RNA, mRNA was fragmented using divalent cations under elevated temperature and primed for cDNA synthesis. The cleaved RNA fragments were primed with random hexamers and reverse transcribed into single-stranded cDNA using reverse transcriptase. In the next step, the RNA template was removed and the complementary cDNA strand was synthesized using RNAse H and DNA polymerase I, respectively. The overhangs that resulted from fragmentation were polished into blunt ends using an End Repair Mix (consisting of T4 DNA polymerase, Klenow fragment and T4 polynucleotide kinase). A single T nucleotide was added on the 3' end of the adapter for ligating the adapter to the cDNA fragments. Indexing adapters were ligated to the ends of the cDNAs using T4 DNA ligase, preparing them for hybridization onto a flow cell. Finally, the DNA fragments with adapter molecules at both ends were amplified by PCR to enrich the amount of DNA in the library. PCR was performed with a PCR primer cocktail that anneals to the ends of the adapters. Quantity and quality of the DNA libraries was assessed using Agilent DNA-1000 chips on an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. The 8 cDNA libraries were pooled and simultaneously sequenced from both 5’ and 3’ ends using the Illumina MiSeq System platform according to the manufacturer's instructions. We performed three sequencing runs (technical replicates) with the aim of increase the sequencing depth. 150 bp paired-end reads were obtained in each sequencing run. Fluorescent image processing, base-calling and quality value calculations for each of the three runs were performed using Illumina MiSeq Control Software. Data were deposited at the NCBI (GEO database under series record GSE54123).

Project description:Fruit ripening is a very important physiological process which gains relevance in crop species due to their economical and nutritional repercussions. During fruit ripening enormous metabolic changes occur in a genetically-controlled scenario affecting the physiology of most cell compartments. Peroxisomes are single-membrane bounded organelles present in all eukaryotes which display a noteworthy nitro-oxidative metabolism, and harbor catalase as one of the major antioxidant enzymes in cells. Quantitative proteomics analysis by isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) was used to investigate the ripening process in sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) fruits. Out of 2,574 quantified proteins, 692 were found to be significantly more abundant in immature green fruits compared to red ones, but 497 showed a lower expression as the ripening proceeded. Overall, about 50% of the detectable proteins were estimated to modify their expression due to the ripening process. Data obtained from the Gene Ontology algorithms (AgriGO platform) showed that from all the identified proteins, 46 (2%) were only predicted to have a peroxisomal origin, with a high number of them displaying up-expression tendency during ripening. Catalase was framed within the group which showed lower expression in ripe fruits, but this enzyme was also susceptible to undergo posttranslational modifications (PTMs) promoted by reactive nitrogen and oxygen species (RNS and ROS) through nitration, S-nitrosylation and oxidation events which provoked its inhibition. The biochemical characterization of catalase indicates that it has atypical native molecular mass (125-135 kDa), since it behaves as a homodimer, and isoelectric point of 7.4, which is higher than that of the majority of plant catalases reported so far. Taking together, these data suggest that ROS and RNS could be essential to modulate the role of catalase for the maintenance of basic cellular peroxisomal functions during pepper fruit ripening where nitro-oxidative stress occur.

Project description:The organization of chromatin into self-interacting domains is universal among eukaryotic genomes, though how and why they form varies considerably. Here we report a chromosome-scale reference genome assembly of pepper (Capsicum annuum) and explore its 3D organization through integrating high-resolution Hi-C maps with epigenomic, transcriptomic, and genetic variation data. Chromatin folding domains in pepper are as prominent as TADs in mammals but exhibit unique characteristics. They tend to coincide with heterochromatic regions enriched with retrotransposons and are frequently embedded in loops, which may correlate with transcription factories. Their boundaries are hotspots for chromosome rearrangements but are otherwise depleted for genetic variation. While chromatin conformation broadly affects transcription variance, it does not predict differential gene expression between tissues. Our results suggest that pepper genome organization is explained by a model of heterochromatin-driven folding promoted by transcription factories and that such spatial architecture is under structural and functional constraints.

Project description:ngs2013_07_pcapsici-effecaps-phytophthora capsici-The analysed RNAseq concerned the oomycete Phytophthora capsici in growth on pepper plants. 1/ How the adaptation of a pathogen to a host depends on its gene expression? 2/ How the plant host impacts the expression of pathogen genes at the very beginning of infection?-Two isolates of Phytophthora capsici were used: the Pc107 isolate (called A for adapted to pepper from INRAE GAFL Avignon), and the Pc273 isolate (N for non-adapted to pepper, collected on pumpkin in the USA). Two accessions of pepper (Capsicum annuum L., the host) were used: Yolo Wonder (YW, PM0031), susceptible (S) to Phytophthora capsici, and Criollo de Morelos 334 (CM334, PM0702), partially resistant (R). Inoculations were performed, as described in Lefebvre and Palloix (1996), by putting on the wounded stem a plug of mycelium. Inoculated plants were transferred to a growth chamber at 24°C/22°C temperature on a 12h/12h light/dark cycle. At 24 hours-post-inoculation, 12 total RNA samples were extracted from inoculated plants for the 4 host-isolate interactions: R_A, S_A, R_N and S_N. Each sample consisted of six pooled stem fragments. The stem fragments are the 5-mm region immediately under the visible stem necrosis. Samples were flash-frozen in liquid-nitrogen and stored at -80ºC. They were ground in liquid nitrogen with a cold mortar and pestle. Total RNA was extracted using QIAGEN Rneasy Plant Mini Kit. RNA-seq libraries were constructed at IPS2 POPS platform (France) by TruSeq_Stranded_mRNA_SamplePrep_Guide_15031047_D protocol (Illumina®, California, USA). Sequencing was conducted on an Illumina Hiseq2000 hosted by Genoscope (Evry, France). The RNA-seq samples have been sequenced in paired-end (PE) with a sizing of 260 bp and a read length of 100 bases, lane repartition and barcoding giving approximately 35 million of paired-end reads per sample.
