Comparative transcriptome reprogramming in oak galls containing sexual or asexual generations of parasitoid wasps

ABSTRACT: 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.

Transcriptomic analysis of a symbiotic poxvirus in parasitoid wasps and fly hosts

Project description:Parasitoid wasps of the species Diachasmimorpha longicaudata are associated with a heritable poxvirus, known as DlEPV, that is stored in the venom gland of adult female wasps and transferred to tephritid fly hosts of the wasps during oviposition. We conducted a RNA-seq differential expression analysis to gain insight on how DlEPV can replicate in both wasps and their fly hosts but only cause pathogenic effects during replication in flies. Our analysis revealed that 91.2% (176 of 193) of DlEPV genes showed significant differential expression during peak virus replication in wasp venom glands compared to parasitized flies. Over 80% of DlEPV replication genes were significantly upregulated in wasps, while 79% of DlEPV putative virulence genes were significantly upregulated in fly hosts. These data therefore support a dichotomy of viral function, where virus replication is promoted in wasp tissue and virulence in host tissue. Such a division of viral activity could represent an important adaptation to maintain a stable symbiosis between this virus and its associated parasitoid.

Characterization of small RNAs expressed in roots and galls from Arabidopsis thaliana induced by the plant parasitic nematodes Meloidogyne incognita

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.

Differentially expressed small RNAs in Arabidopsis galls formed by Meloidogyne javanica

Project description:Root-knot nematodes (RKNs) induce inside the vascular cylinder the giant cells (GCs) imbibed into a gall. Gene-repression in early developing GCs could be facilitated by small RNAs (sRNA) as miRNAs. 24nt-sRNAs, rasiRNAs and 21-22nt-sRNAs can also mediate epigenetic mechanisms. Three sRNA libraries from 3dpi galls and three from uninfected root segments were sequenced following Illumina-Solexa technology. Three sRNA libraries from 3dpi galls and three from uninfected root segments were sequenced

Characterization of molecular factors involved in plant metabolic and morphological reprogramming during gall formation

Project description:Understanding how plant tissue and organs may be transformed into novel structures by other organisms provides a unique opportunity to study the molecular processes that dictate facets of plant anatomy and morphology. Certain groups of wasps have evolved the ability to transform plant tissues into ornate structures called galls, which provide shelter and nutrition for their larvae. However, the exact mechanism for how gall wasps remodel the plant’s physical structure and metabolism is still largely unknown. At their core, galls alter the morphology and repurpose the function of plant tissue. One common trait that unites all galls is the distinct cellular reprogramming and tumor-like growth that is necessary to produce a gall. There are over 1,400 gall wasps from the family Cynipidae, resulting in a wide diversity of gall structures, shapes, and colors that have been described. Thus, discovering the core molecular determinants that dictate the radical transformation of plant cells will help reveal principles of how plant morphology and function can be rewired by external factors. Little molecular work has been done to elucidate the factors (i.e., genes, proteins, or small molecules) that may be involved in this dramatic repurposing and dedifferentiation of plant tissue. We plan to utilize modern -omics approaches to investigate and identify the molecular factors that underlie the initiation and development of plant galls. The work (proposal:https://doi.org/10.46936/10.25585/60000461) conducted by the U.S. Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute (https://ror.org/04xm1d337), a DOE Office of Science User Facility, is supported by the Office of Science of the U.S. Department of Energy operated under Contract No. DE-AC02-05CH11231.

Transcription profiling of Arabidopsis thaliana mature crown galls

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/).

Fig and fig wasp mutualism

Project description:A striking property of the ancient and obligate mutualism between figs and their pollinating wasps is that fig wasps consistently oviposit in the inner flowers of the fig syconium (gall flowers, which develop into galls that house developing larvae), but typically do not use the outer ring of flowers (seed flowers, which develop into seeds). To better understand differences between gall and seed flowers that might influence oviposition choices, and the unknown mechanisms underlying gall formation, we used a metatranscriptomic approach to analyze eukaryotic gene expression within fig flowers at the time of oviposition choice and early gall development. Consistent with the unbeatable seed hypothesis, which posits that only a portion of fig flowers are physiologically capable of responding to gall induction or supporting larval development, we found significant differences in gene expression assigned to defense and metabolism between gall- and seed flowers in receptive syconia. Transcripts assigned to flavonoids and defense were especially prevalent in receptive gall flowers, and carbohydrate metabolism was significantly up-regulated relative to seed flowers. In turn, high expression of the venom gene icarapin during wasp embryogenesis within galled flowers distinguishes it as a candidate gene for gall initiation. In response to galling, the fig significantly up-regulates the expression of chalcone synthase, which previously has been connected to gall formation in other plants. This study simultaneously evaluates the gene expression profile of both mutualistic partners in a plant-insect mutualism and provides evidence for a stability mechanism in the ancient fig-fig wasp association.
