Project description:Knowledge about an organism’s cell and tissue-specific transcriptional repertoire is essential for understanding the gene regulatory circuits that control key developmental events. The shoot apical meristem (SAM) is responsible for development of all the above ground parts of plants. Our understanding of SAM at the molecular level is far from complete. The present work investigates the global gene expression repertoire of SAMs in the garden pea (Pisum sativum). To this end, 10,346 EST sequences representing 7611 unique genes were generated from pea SAM cDNA libraries. These sequences, together with previously reported ESTs, were used to construct a 12K oligonucleotide array used to identify genes exhibiting differential SAM expression, as compared to the axillary meristem, root apical meristem, and non-meristematic tissues. We identified a number of genes that are predominantly expressed in specific cell layers or domains of the SAM, and thus are likely components of the gene networks involved in stem cell maintenance and initiation of lateral organ primordial cells. In situ hybridization confirmed the spatial localisation of some of these key genes within the SAM. Our data also indicate the diversification of some gene expression patterns and functions in legume crop plants.

Project description:DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that specifies the basic state of pluripotent stem cells and regulates the developmental transition from stem cells to various cell types. In flowering plants, the shoot apical meristem (SAM) contains a pluripotent stem cell population which generates the aerial part of plants including the germ cells. Under appropriate conditions, the SAM undergoes a developmental transition from a leaf-forming vegetative SAM to an inflorescence- and flower-forming reproductive SAM. While SAM characteristics are largely altered in this transition, the complete picture of DNA methylation remains elusive. Here, by analyzing whole-genome DNA methylation of isolated rice SAMs in the vegetative and reproductive stages, we found that methylation at CHH sites is kept high, particularly at transposable elements (TEs), in the vegetative SAM relative to the differentiated leaf, and increases in the reproductive SAM via the RNA-dependent DNA methylation pathway. We also found that half of the TEs that were highly methylated in gametes had already undergone CHH hypermethylation in the SAM. Our results indicate that changes in DNA methylation begin in the SAM long before germ cell differentiation to protect the genome from harmful TEs.

Project description:All above ground organs of higher plants are ultimately derived from shoot apical meristems (SAMs). The SAM exhibits distinctive structural organization, and monocot SAMs such as maize are comprised of two cell layers, a single cell layered tunica (L1) and a corpus (L2). Although recent research has revealed roles of these cell layers in the SAM, intra- and inter-cell-layer signaling networks involved in organ development remain largely unknown except for a few differentially expressed genes. Here, we used Illumnia technology to conduct RNA-seq of L1 and L2 cell layers in maize B73 maize shoot apical meristem.

Project description:Background: It has been observed in some plant-virus interaction under certain circumstances that the plants show a sign of healing from virus-infection, a phenomenon called symptom recovery. The nature of molecular processes behind symptom recovery has been an enigma in plant virology for a long time. Discovery of RNA silencing provided a possible mechanism to explain some aspects of recovery but not all. Results: We provide evidence that silencing is not the reason for recovery in CymRSV-infected Nicotiana benthamiana plants. Transcriptome analysis followed by in situ hybridization experiments shed light on the expressional changes in the shoot apical meristem (SAM) region upon virus infection. We observed a severe loss of meristem function in the SAM which was accompanied by the downregulation of meristem-specific genes. Among the upregulated genes we found an enrichment of salicylate-metabolism and signalling, and autophagy-related functions (among many others) suggesting that these genes might play a role in shoot necrosis and symptom recovery. Conclusion: Our data suggest that the loss of meristem function is a result of salicylate-induced programmed cell death.

Project description:Plant growth is the result of cell proliferation in the meristems, which requires a dynamic balance between the formation of new tissue and the maintenance of a set of undifferentiated stem cells. There is much that remains unknown about this vital developmental process. In this study, we have reported the generation of 2735 ESTs from three cDNA libraries derived from dissected garden pea (Pisum sativum cv Torsdag) shoot apical meristems. Clustering analysis of the resulting sequences gave rise to 1686 non-redundant ESTs. The unique sequences generated together with 500 other pea transcripts randomly selected from the GenBank pea protein database have been utilized to construct a 2K oligonucleotide array. Using this pea array, we have obtained the transcript profiles of pea shoot apical meristems in comparison to non-apical-meristem tissues. A total of 181 or 174 transcripts were identified to be significantly up- or down-regulated in the pea shoot apical meristem, respectively. As expected, close to 61% of the transcripts down-regulated in the shoot apical mersitem are those retrieved from the public database, whereas sequences from the same source only made up 12% of the genes that were expressed at higher levels in SAMs. This revelation highlights the under-representation of transcripts from the meristmatic tissues in the current public protein database. Manual inspection of the list of up-regulated transcripts reveals the presence of sequences predicted to encode products associated with cell division and proliferation, epigenetic regulation, auxin-mediated responses and miRNA regulation. Similar genes have been implicated in the regulation of plant stem cell activity. Taken together, our EST collection as well as the microarray data provides useful starting points for more in depth analysis of the meristem function and maintenance.
