Project description:The root epidermis of Arabidopsis provides a simple and experimentally useful model for studying the molecular basis of cell fate and differentiation. The goal of this study was to define the transcript changes in the root epidermis of mutants associated with root epidermis cell specification, including mutants that lack a visible phenotypic alteration (try, egl3, myb23, and ttg2). Transcript levels were assessed by purifying populations of root epidermal cells using fluorescence-based cell-sorting with the WER::GFP transgene. These microarray results were used to compare the effects of single and double mutants on the gene regulatory network that controls root epidermal cell fate and differentiation in Arabidopsis. The cells of the developing root epidermis were obtained by growing plant seedlings expressing the WER::GFP transgene under sterile conditions on MS media, cutting off root tips (including all developmental stages), protoplasting the roots, and purifying cells containing GFP using FACS. The WER::GFP transgene is expressed throughout the developing cells of the root epidermis and the lateral root cap. Three biological replicates were analyzed for each of the plant lines examined in this study.

Project description:The root epidermis of Arabidopsis provides a simple and experimentally useful model for studying the molecular basis of cell fate and differentiation. The goal of this study was to define the larger gene regulatory network that governs the differentiation of the root hair and non-hair cell types of the Arabidopsis root epidermis. Transcript levels in the root epidermis of wild-type and mutant lines were assessed by purifying populations of root epidermal cells using fluorescence-based cell-sorting. Further, the role of the plant hormones auxin and ethylene on root epidermis development was assessed by defining transcript levels in the root epidermis of plants grown on media containing IAA or ACC. These microarray results were used to construct a comprehensive gene regulatory network that depicts the transcriptional control of root epidermal cell fate and differentiation in Arabidopsis. The cells of the developing root epidermis were obtained by growing plant seedlings expressing the WER::GFP transgene under sterile conditions on MS media, cutting off root tips (including all developmental stages), protoplasting the roots, and purifying cells containing GFP using FACS. The WER::GFP transgene is expressed throughout the developing cells of the root epidermis and the lateral root cap. Three biological replicates were analyzed for each of the 25 plant lines examined in this study.

Project description:Phosphate (Pi) deficiency alters root hair length and frequency as a means of increasing the absorptive surface area of roots. Three partly redundant single R3 MYB proteins, CAPRICE (CPC), ENHANCER OF TRY AND CPC1 (ETC1) and TRIPTYCHON (TRY), positively regulate the root hair cell fate by participating in a lateral inhibition mechanism. To identify putative targets and processes that are controlled by these three transcription factors (TFs), we conducted transcriptional profiling of roots from Arabidopsis thaliana wild-type plants, and cpc, etc1 and try mutants grown under Pi-replete and Pi-deficient conditions using RNA-seq.

Project description:Purpose: The root hair is a model for understanding evolution of individual cell differentiation programs in plants. We compare the expression of the genes that participate in root hair development between Arabidopsis and other vascular plants to assess the conservation/diversification of the root hair development programs in vascular plants. Methods: We used RNA-Seq, in triplicates, to measure the genome-wide transcription activity of the root-hair cells isolated by Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) in Arabidopsis (COBL9::GFP transgeneic line, AtRH) and rice (EXPA30::GFP transgenic line, OsRH). We also generated RNA-Seq data, in triplicates, on the Arabidopsis rhd6 WER::GFP and WT WER::GFP by FACS to identify the RHD6-regulating root hair morphogenesis genes (AtRHM). For Arabidopsis, rice, tomato, soybean, cucumber and maize, we used RNA-seq, in triplicates, to measure genome-wide transcription activity of root hair cells filtered by sieves after stirred in liquid nitrogen (HAIR genes). Each sample was trimmed to retain high-quality reads, mapped to the reference genome by TopHat, and quantified by Cufflinks. The number of raw reads of Arabidopsis rhd6 WER::GFP and WT WER::GFP sample was counted by HTSeq and analyzed by edgeR to identify the differentially expressed genes. Results: We defined the root-hair transcriptome in diverse vascular plant species and analyzed the relative conservation/divergence in the expression of a large set of gene families.

Project description:The Arabidopsis thaliana root epidermis is comprised of two cell types, hair and nonhair cells, which differentiate from the same precursor. Although the transcriptional programs regulating these events are well studied, post-transcriptional factors functioning in this cell fate decision are mostly unknown. Here, we globally identify RNA-protein interactions and RNA secondary structure in hair and nonhair cell nuclei. This analysis reveals distinct structural and protein binding patterns across both transcriptomes, allowing identification of differential RNA binding protein (RBP) recognition sites. Using these sequences, we identify two RBPs that regulate hair cell development. Specifically, we find that SERRATE functions in a microRNA-dependent manner to inhibit hair cell fate, while also terminating hair growth in differentiated hair cells independent of microRNAs. Additionally, we show that GLYCINE-RICH PROTEIN 8 alleviates phosphate starvation stress while promoting hair cell fate. In total, this global analysis reveals novel post-transcriptional regulators of plant root epidermal cell fate.

Project description:Purpose: Identify novel genes and relationships of a temporal transcriptional landscape in Arabidopsis epidermal root cells under iron deficiency stress Results: We identified 1,709 novel iron responsive genes which would have been missed had we identified DEGs with respect to the 0hr time point using the whole root or epidermis data. Conclusion: Gene set comparisons allowed us to identify organ-level response versus cell-specific and to parse out developmental from iron deficiency-induced response. We identified several new iron deficiency-induced and repressed TFs and implemented a novel sampling method to generate an epidermis specific GRN that incorporates gene-level expression while maintaining computational efficiency. Using cis-elements in the promoters of DEGs, we were also able to find plausible regulators that would not have been found by exclusively looking at differentially expressed genes. The new transcriptional data provides clarity to our current understanding of root responses to -Fe triggered by the first layer of “defense,” the root epidermis.

Project description:Optimal plant growth is hampered by limiting amounts of the essential macronutrient phosphate in most soils. As a response, plant roots produce root hairs to capture this immobile nutrient. Although vital to high-yielding crops, this response remains poorly understood. By generating and exploiting a high spatial and temporal resolution single cell atlas of the Arabidopsis root, we show a remarkable enrichment of TMO5/LHW target genes in root hair epidermal cells. Moreover, these vascular bHLH factors are sufficient to induce a root hair formation response in the epidermal cells, similar as observed during low phosphate conditions, via the downstream cytokinin signaling. We further show that root hair formation under low phosphate conditions is almost absent when TMO5 function or cytokinin signaling is perturbed. In conclusion, cytokinin signaling links the adaptation of roots under low phosphate conditions in the epidermis to perception in vascular cells.

Project description:The mechanisms ensuring balanced growth remain a critical question in developmental biology. In plants, this balance relies on spatiotemporal integration of hormonal signaling pathways, but the understanding of the precise contribution of each hormone is just beginning to take form. Brassinosteroid (BR) hormone, is shown here to have opposing effects on root meristem size, depending on its site of action. BR is demonstrated to both delay and promote onset of stem cell daughter differentiation, when acting in the outer tissue of the root meristem, the epidermis, and the inner-most tissue, the stele, respectively. To understand the molecular basis of this phenomenon, a comprehensive spatiotemporal translatome mapping of Arabidopsis roots was performed. Analyses of wild type and mutants featuring different distributions of BR, revealed autonomous, tissue-specific gene responses to BR, implying its contrasting tissue-dependent impact on growth. BR-induced genes were primarily detected in epidermal cells of the basal meristem zone and were enriched by auxin-related genes. In contrast, repressed BR genes prevailed in the stele of the apical meristem zone. Furthermore, auxin was found to mediate the growth-promoting impact of BR signaling originating in the epidermis, while BR signaling in the stele buffered this effect. We propose that context-specific BR activity and responses are oppositely interpreted at the organ level, ensuring coherent growth. 24 samples of polyribosome-associated mRNA (following 0, 3, and 8 hours of BR treatment, in two biological repetitions), were collected. RNA samples were sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq 2500, to obtain 50 bp single-end reads. These reads were aligned to the TAIR10 assembly of the Arabidopsis thaliana genome, using Tophat2 v2.0.9. Transcript coordinates from the TAIR10 reference set were used to guide the alignment process. After alignment, the numbers of reads per transcript were estimated using HTSeq v0.5.3p3, and DESeq2 v1.2.8 was used to normalize read counts and call differentially expressed genes.
