Project description:Alkaline salts (e.g., NaHCO3 and Na2CO3) causes more severe morphological and physiological damage to plants than neutral salts (e.g., NaCl and Na2SO4) due to differences in pH. The mechanism by which plants respond to alkali stress is not fully understood, especially in plants having symbotic relationships such as alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.). Therefore, a study was designed to evaluate the metabolic response of the root-nodule symbiosis in alfalfa under alkali stress using comparative metabolomics. Rhizobium-nodulized (RI group) and non-nodulized (NI group) alfalfa roots were treated with 200 mmol/L NaHCO3 and, roots samples were analyzed for malondialdehydyde (MDA), proline, glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and peroxidase (POD) content. Additionally, metabolite profiling was conducted using gas chromatography combined with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC/TOF-MS). Phenotypically, the RI alfalfa exhibited a greater resistance to alkali stress than the NI plants examined. Physiological analysis and metabolic profiling revealed that RI plants accumulated more antioxidants (SOD, POD, GSH), osmolytes (sugar, glycols, proline), organic acids (succinic acid, fumaric acid, and alpha-ketoglutaric acid), and metabolites that are involved in nitrogen fixation. Our pairwise metabolomics comparisons revealed that RI alfalfa plants exhibited a distinct metabolic profile associated with alkali putative tolerance relative to NI alfalfa plants. Data provide new information about the relationship between non-nodulized, rhizobium-nodulized alfalfa and alkali resistance.

Project description:Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is a forage legume with significant agricultural value worldwide. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key components of post-transcriptional gene regulation and essentially control almost all aspect of plant growth and development. Although miRNAs have been reported from alfalfa but their expression profiles in different tissues and novel miRNAs as well as their targets have not been confirmed in this plant species. Therefore, we sequenced small RNAs in whole plantlets, shoots and roots of three different alfalfa genotypes (Altet-4, NECS-141 and NF08ALF06) to identify tissue-specific profiles. After comprehensive analysis using bioinformatics methods, we have identified 100 miRNA families, of which 21 belongs to the highly conserved families whereas the remaining 79 families are conserved between M. truncatula and M. sativa. The profiles of the six highly expressed conserved miRNA families (miR156, 159, 166, 319, 396, 398,) were relatively similar between the plantlets, roots and shoots of three genotypes. Contrastingly, the differenecs were robust between shoots and roots for miR160 and miR408 levels, which were low in roots compared to shoots. The study also has identified 17 novel miRNAs that also differed in their abundanecs between tissues of the alfalfa genotypes. Additionally, we have generated and analyzed the degradome libraries from three alfalfa genotypes that has confirmed 69 genes as targets for 31 miRNA families in alfalfa. The identification of conserved and novel miRNAs as well as their targets in different tissues of three genotypes not only enhanced our understanding of miRNA-mediated gene regulation in alfalfa but could also be useful for practical applications in alfalfa as well as related legume species.

Project description:By comparing transcriptomes of tolerant and intolerant plants of sickle alfalfa subject to intensive animal grazing, we identified pathways involved in nutrient-responsive signaling, light and wound response, cell wall formation, and energy metabolism. In these pathways, grazing suppressed 39 genes, but less severe in the tolerant plant, and activated 5 genes all carrying polymorphisms in their homologous transcripts between the tolerant and intolerant plants. These genes and pathways - responsive to grazing and differentially expressed between the tolerant and intolerant plants – underline a defense mechanism in alfalfa against grazing stresses.

Project description:Soil alkalinity greatly affects plant growth and crop productivity. Although RNA-Seq analyses have been conducted to investigate genome-wide gene expression in response to alkaline stress in many plants, the expression of alkali-responsive genes in rice has not previously investigated. In this study, the transcriptomic data were compared between an alkaline-tolerant [WD20342 (WD)] and an alkaline-sensitive [Caidao (CD)] rice cultivar under control and alkaline stress conditions. A total of 962 important alkali-responsive (IAR) genes from highly differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified, including 28 alkaline-resistant cultivar-related genes, 771 alkaline-sensitive cultivar-related genes and 163 cultivar-non-specific genes. Gene ontology (GO) analysis suggested the enrichment of IAR genes involved in response to various stimuli or stresses. According to KEGG pathway analysis, the IAR genes were related primarily to plant hormone signal transduction and biosynthesis of secondary metabolites. Additionally, among these 962 IAR genes, 74 were transcription factors and 15 occurred with differential alternative splicing between the different samples after alkaline treatment. Our results provide a valuable resource on alkali-responsive genes and should benefit the improvement of alkaline stress tolerance in rice.

Project description:Two alfalfa varieties, 'Chilean' (M. sativa ssp. sativa var. Chilean, drought sensitive) and 'Wisfal' (M. sativa ssp. falcata var. Wisfal, drought tolerant), with contrasting water use efficiency were subjected to water withholding for 11 days followed by re-watering. Samples were taken for well-watered plants and plants after five, eight, eleven days of drought stress as well as plants after recovery for one day following drought stress. Roots and shoots were sampled and analyzed separately by expression profiling using Affymetrix Medicago GeneChip.

Project description:We studied the application of transcriptome technology in alfalfa selenium treatment. After spraying sodium selenite on the leaves, the process of selenium absorption and assimilation of alfalfa is unknown. The time point of transcriptome determination was determined by measuring the change of selenium content. Our results showed that 12 h was the key point of the change of selenium content in alfalfa, that is, the selenium content increased continuously before 12 h, decreased gradually after 12 h, and remained stable after 48 h. Transcriptome sequencing showed that phosphorus transporter and endocytosis related genes may be involved in selenium absorption at 12 h compared with 0 H. 12-48 h, some thiometabolic pathways may be involved in selenium metabolism and ubiquitination pathway, which may be the detoxification pathway of selenoprotein.
