Transcriptomes of developing rice ovules

ABSTRACT: We aimed to reveal transitions of gene expression profile in developing female gametophytes of rice in this study. The developmental process of rice female gametophyte, from megaspore mother cell at pre-meiotic stage to mature embryo sac, was separated into six stages. Developing ovules at each stage were separated from surrounding sporophyte tissues and collected using LMD. RNA samples extracted from them were subjected to microarray analysis. Dynamic gene expression profiles during female gametogenesis were revealed. Comparison of transcriptome in developing female gametophytes with those of male gametophyes revealed both conserved and diverged features between male and female gametogenesis. A lot of characteristic genes, such as a subset of transposable elements, auxin responsive genes and transcription factor genes, which showed dynamic expression profiles during female gametogenesis, were identified in this study. We believe that our transcriptome data will serve as a backbone of further focused biological analysis to understand the molecular basis in female gametogenesis of plant.

Gene expression profiles of developing ovules were analyzed according to stage progression. Three or four biological replicates were prepared for each stage, and a total of nineteen samples were analyzed.

Transcription profiling of Ectocarpus strain Esil32 porophyte and gametophyte stages in normal and mutant strains to analyse expression of two sets of genes previously identified as being putatively sporophyte-specific or gametophyte-specific

Project description:The aim of this experiment was to analyse the expression of two sets of genes identified as being putatively sporophyte-specific or gametophyte-specific by a suppressive subtraction hybridisation using cDNA from immature sporophytes and immature gametophytes of the Ectocarpus strain Esil32. The expression of these genes was analysed in the sporophyte and gametophyte generations of the life cycle (again using immature algae that had not yet produces zoidangia) and in the sporophyte generation of a mutant strain, immediate upright, that exhibits gametophyte-like characteristics during the sporophyte generation.

Analysis of transcript abundances in Ectocarpus life cycle mutants

Project description:The aim of this experiment was to compare transcript abundances in parthenotes (i.e. organisms derived by parthenogenetic development of gametes) of two life cycle mutants of the brown alga Ectocarpus siliculosus with transcript abundances in the wild type sporophyte and gametophyte generations. This is of interest because the two mutations, immediate upright (imm) and ouroboros (oro), cause partial and almost complete hometic conversion, respectively, of the sporophyte into the gametophyte. imm parthenotes exhibit gametophyte-like morphology during early development but remain sporophytes in functional terms (they do not produce gametes) whereas oro parthenotes behave as functional gametophytes and are morphologically indistinguishable from gametophytes apart from the appearance some minor sporophyte-like features very early in development in some individuals. To minimise genetic background effects the samples for this experiment were derived from a segregating population derived from an imm/IMM oro/ORO sporophyte. Four classes of gametophyte were derived from this sporophyte were IMM/ORO (wild type), imm/ORO, IMM/oro and imm/oro. Parthenomes were bulked to provide a wild type sporophyte sample, samples corresponding to the two individual mutants, plus the double mutant. A wild type gametophyte sample was also compared for comparison. Hybridisations with cDNA derived from these five samples were carried out using a NimbleGen expressed-sequence-tag-(EST-)based microarray carrying probes corresponding to 10,600 of the 16,256 genes identified in the Ectocarpus genome.

The DME demethylase regulates sporophyte gene expression, cell proliferation, differentiation, and meristem resurrection

Project description:The flowering plant life cycle consists of alternating haploid (gametophyte) and diploid (sporophyte) generations, where the sporophytic generation begins with fertilization of haploid gametes. In Arabidopsis, genome-wide DNA demethylation is required for normal development, catalyzed by the DEMETER (DME) DNA demethylase in the gamete companion cells of male and female gametophytes. In the sporophyte, postembryonic growth and development are largely dependent on the activity of numerous stem cell niches, or meristems. Analyzing Arabidopsis plants homozygous for a loss-of-function dme-2 allele, we show that DME influences many aspects of sporophytic growth and development. dme-2 mutants exhibited delayed seed germination, variable root hair growth, aberrant cellular proliferation and differentiation followed by enhanced de novo shoot formation, dysregulation of root quiescence and stomatal precursor cells, and inflorescence meristem (IM) resurrection. We also show that sporophytic DME activity exerts a profound effect on the transcriptome of developing Arabidopsis plants, including discrete groups of regulatory genes that are misregulated in dme-2 mutant tissues, allowing us to potentially link phenotypes to changes in specific gene expression pathways. These results show that DME plays a key role in sporophytic development and suggest that DME-mediated active DNA demethylation may be involved in the maintenance of stem cell activities during the sporophytic life cycle in Arabidopsis.

Genome-wide transcriptomic analysis of the sporophyte of the moss Physcomitrella patens

Project description:Bryophytes are the most basal of the extant land plants. A major feature of these plants is the biphasic alteration of generations between a dominant haploid gametophyte and a minor diploid sporophyte phase. To analyse the differences in the transcriptome of the early gametophyte (protonema) and early and mid-sporophyte phases of the moss Physcomitrella patens, microarray gene expression profiles were performed using dissected sporophyte tissue. Through further analysis the early and mid-sporophyte phases were compared. RNA isolated from the Gametophytic protonemal tissue was hybridised to six microarrays. Each microarray was hybridised with RNA from a separate biological replicate. Three of these microarrays were co-hybridised with RNA isolated from early sporophytes. With the third gametophyte biological replicate and early sporophyte replicate a dye swap was carried out. The remaining three microarrays hybridised with RNA from the gametophytes were co-hybridised with RNA from mid-sporophytic tissue. A dye swap was carried out on the sixth gametophyte replicate and third mid-sporophyte replicate.To meet the quality requirements for the microarray experiment, at least 400 sporophytes were used per extraction. Three or four RNA extracts were then pooled for further precipitation to maximise purity and concentration. Up to 1600 sporophytes were harvested to prepare sufficient RNA for each microarray replicate. In bioinformatic analysis the channels were split into individual channels and the early and mid-sporophyte were compared.

Comparative gene expression in synergid cells and antipodal cells at anthesis

Project description:Synergid cells represent the receptor cell type of angiosperm gametophytes that attract and receive the male pollen tube and are implicated in the transfer of the sperm cells to the target egg and central cells prior to double fertilization. The antipodals represent an accessory cell type that typically degenerates after fertilization; in rice it may initially have a short-lived nutritional role prior to endosperm establishment. We examined the transcriptome of these two cell types using Oryza sativa ssp. japonica (cv Katy) using the Affymetrix 57K rice genome GeneChip to provide an overview of genes activated at receptivity in the synergid and antipodal cells and transcript up- and down-regulated at female gametophyte maturity just prior to fertilization. This is part of a larger microarray paroject to examine the global program of gene expression during sexual reproduction in Oryza sativa which serves as a model angiosperm in which male and female gametophytic and embryonic cells may be readily isolated and characterized.

Single-nucleus sequencing deciphers lineage trajectories in rice pistils [snRNA-seq]

Project description:Angiosperms possess a characteristic life cycle with an alternation of sporophyte and gametophyte generations, which happens in plant organs like pistils. Rice pistils contain ovules and receive pollen for successful fertilization to produce grains. The cellular expression profile in rice pistils is largely unknown. Here we show a cell atlas of rice pistils before fertilization by droplet-based single-nucleus RNA sequencing. The Ab initio marker identification validated by in situ hybridization assists the cell-type annotation, revealing cell heterogeneity between ovule and carpel lineages.
