Project description:The lemma, the palea and the awn of a barley spike are photosynthetic organs and supply the developing seed with carbohydrates. In addition, the lemma and the palea cover the seed and protect it from pathogens and insects. In this study, we compared gene expression among the lemma, the palea, the awn and the developing seed of barley at the grain-filling stage (Zadok scale 83) using the Barley1 Genome Array in order to identify genes that determine the primary function of these organs.

Project description:The photosynthetic organs of the barley spike (lemma, palea and awn) are resistant to drought. This is a beneficial trait because they can sustain grain-filling when drought occurs at the reproductive stage. There is little information about gene expression in the spike organs under drought conditions. In this study, we compared gene expression in drought-stressed lemma, palea, awn and seed at the grain-filling stage using the Barley1 Genome Array in order to identify drought-regulated organ-specific genes. Experiment Overall Design: Barley plants were drough-stressed for 4 days at the grain-filling stage by withholding water. Lemma, palea, awn and seed were collected to determine gene expression during drought in each organ. For each organ three biological replications were collected on three different dates. On each of the three dates, one replication of each organ was collected from plants grown in separate pots using a randomized complete block design (RCBD). In ths design, organ type and drought treatment were treatment effects and date of sample collection (replication) was the block. To get enough tissue for RNA extraction, each replication for each organ was collected from four plants in the same pot. RNA from each replicate sample was hybridized to individual Barley1 GeneChips. Thus, for four organs with three replications (blocks) and two treatment levels, a total of 24 Barley1 GeneChips were used.

Project description:Floral organ shape and size in cereal crops can affect grain size and yield, so genes that regulate their development are promising breeding targets. The lemma, which protects inner floral organs, can physically constrain grain growth; while the awn, a needle-like extension of the lemma, creates photosynthates to promote grain fill. Although several genes and modules controlling grain size and awn/lemma growth in rice have been characterized, these processes, and the relationships between them, are not well understood for barley and wheat. Here, we demonstrate that the barley E-class gene HvMADS1 positively regulates awn length and lemma width, leading to increased grain size and weight. Cytological data indicated that MADS1 promotes grain growth by promoting cell proliferation, while multi-omics data revealed MADS1 target genes associated with cell cycle, phytohormone signaling, and developmental processes. We defined two direct targets of MADS1 regulation, HvSHI and HvDL, whose knockout mutants mimic awn and/or lemma phenotypes of mads1 mutants; and demonstrated that MADS1 interacts APETALA2 (A-class) to synergistically activate downstream genes in awn/lemma development. Notably, we found that MADS1 function remains conserved in wheat, promoting cell proliferation to increase awn length. These findings extend our understanding of MADS1 function in floral organ development to inform strategies for Triticeae crop improvement. Three replicates of barley tissues were collected for RNA extraction: lemma and awn from the central part of lemma and awn from WT and mads1 mutants for RNA-seq and RT-qPCR

Project description:A heat and drought tolerant rice cultivar (N22) was grown in the field under control and drought conditions during the dry season in 2013. Drought was applied during early grain filling and resulted in simultaneous heat stress, leading to reduced grain yield and quality. Total RNA was extracted from developing seeds under stress and control (fully flooded) conditions and RNA-seq analysis was performed. These samples are a part of a bigger experiment analysing the responses of three contrasting rice cultivars (N22, Dular, Anjali) to combined heat and drought stress including different organs (developing seeds, flag leaves, flowering spikelets) and developmental stages (early grain filling, flowering) at the transcriptomic level.

Project description:The lem mutant was discovered in a doubled haploid (DH) line derived from the F1 of Gui-630 (Indica)xTaiwanjing (Japonica) by anther culture. The lem mutant did not affect other traits but caused all other floral organs (including palea, lodicule, stamen and carpel) to homeotically transform into lemma or lemma-like structures and caused floral meristem to be indeterminate, thus resulting in the mutant floret consisting of whorls of lemma and lemma-like organs. To identify the global gene expression changes mediated by LEM, we used 57K Affymetrix rice whole genome array to investigate the differences of genome-wide transcriptome between the young panicles of mutant lem versus WT samples during flower development stage. Keywords: rice (Oryza sativa L.),wild-type and lemmata mutant

Project description:Rice is susceptible to both heat and drought stress, in particular during flowering and grain filling, when both grain yield and quality may be severely compromised. However, under field conditions, these two stresses rarely occur separately. Under well-watered conditions, plants avoid heat stress by transpirational cooling, while this is not possible under drought conditions. Although investigating combined heat and drought stress is clearly more agronomically relevant than analyzing the effects of the single stresses, only a few studies of this stress combination, in particular under field conditions, have been published. Furthermore, little is known about how plants respond during recovery from drought stress, which also determines plant survival. To address these knowledge gaps, three rice cultivars differing in heat and drought tolerance were grown in the field under control and drought conditions in three consecutive years. Drought was applied either during flowering or during early grain filling, resulting in simultaneous heat stress, leading to reduced grain yield and quality. Analysis by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) showed distinct metabolic profiles for the three investigated organs (flag leaves, flowering spikelets, developing seeds). The metabolic responses of the plants also strongly differed between cultivars and organs, and between stress and rewatering conditions. Correlation analysis identified potential metabolic markers for grain yield and quality under combined heat and drought stress from stress- and rewatering-regulated metabolites and from metabolites with constitutive differences between the cultivars. These results show that GC-MS can resolve metabolic responses to combined heat and drought stress and subsequent rewatering in different organs of field-grown rice. The metabolite profiles can be used to identify potential marker metabolites for yield stability and grain quality that are expected to improve breeding efforts towards climate change resilient rice.

Project description:The biological functions of differently expressed proteins between superior and inferior spikelet grains were investigated based on the isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification to further clarify the mechanism of rice grain filling at the proteomic level, as well as the response of inferior spikelets to drought dress (-20 kPa or -40 kPa). Compared with superior spikelets, inferior ones had lower sink strength due to the lower sink activities (lower expressions of ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase, granule-bound starch synthase, starch branching enzyme and pullulanase) and smaller sink sizes (lower abundances of structural proteins). The slower and later grain filling resulted from the weaker decomposition and conversion of photoassimilate and the slower cell division. Moderate drought stress (-20 kPa) promoted the grain filling of inferior spikelets through regulating the proteins associated with photoassimilate supply and conversion. These proteins may be important targets for rice breeding programs that raise the rice yield under drought condition. The findings offer new insights into rice grain-filling and provide theoretical evidences for better quality control and scientific improvement of super rice in practice.
