ABSTRACT: In order to get insights into the ability of ectomycorrhizal fungi to perceive their biotic environment as well as into the mechanisms of the interactions between ectomycorrhizal fungi and soil bacteria, we analysed the transcriptomic response of the ectomycorrhizal fungus L. bicolor and of two beneficial, and neutral soil bacteria during their interactions in vitro.

We performed nine hybridizations (macroarray) with samples derived from Laccaria bicolor cultivated alone (3 biological replicates), with P. fluorescens BBc6R8 (3 biological replicates) and with Pf29Arp (3 biological replicates)

We performed six hybridizations (shotgun DNA microarray) with samples derived from Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf29Arp cultivated alone or with Laccaria bicolor S238N in vitro (3 control biological replicates and 3 biological replicates with L. bicolor)

Project description:Bacteria use small diffusible molecules to communicate and to coordinate population response by a cell density-depend mechanism named quorum sensing (QS). If such a cross-talk was first described between bacterial species, it was recently evidenced that bacterial QS signal molecules can also be sensed by eukaryotic organisms thus playing as inter-kingdom signalling molecules. Although ectomycorrhizal fungi interact physically and metabolically with myriads of bacterial species in soils, nothing is known about the ability of ectomycorrhiza-associated bacteria to produce QS molecules and the potential impact of these molecules in the interaction. While investigating the potential effect of these molecules on the physiology of the ectomycorrhizal fungus, we found that 3O,C12-HSL also induced an alteration of the transcriptome of L. bicolor S238N.

While investigating the potential effect of these molecules on the physiology of the ectomycorrhizal fungus, we found that 3O,C12-HSL also induced an alteration of the transcriptome of L. bicolor S238N. This study used the microarray design as follows: cDNA libraries from pure culture of Laccaria bicolor S238N mycelium and from three stages of L. bicolor S238N sporocarp development (Lb2 library: stipes and caps of 5–10 mm growing sporocarps; Lb3 library: caps of 30– 40 mm mature sporocarps), collected under Douglas fir seedlings grown in a glasshouse, were constructed in the λTriplEx2 vector. The cDNA inserts from bacterial clones were PCR-amplified and 4992 cDNAs were arrayed from 384-well microtitre plates on Nylon membranes. Three independent biological replicates were performed for the treatment (3,OC12-HSL) and for the control (ethyl acetate)
Project description:Illumina technology was used to generate mRNA profiles of a time course of Laccaria bicolor S238N and Populus tremula x alba 717-1B4 in vitro ectomycorrhizal development. Total RNA was extracted, TruSeq mRNA Stranded libraries were constructed and and sequenced in triplicates (2 x 150 bp Illumina HiSeq3000) at the Genotoul sequencing facilities (Toulouse, France). Raw reads were trimmed for low quality (quality score 0.05), Illumina adapters and sequences shorter than 15 nucleotides and aligned to the L. bicolor v2 reference transcripts available at the JGI database https://mycocosm.jgi.doe.gov/Lacbi2/Lacbi2.home.html using CLC Genomics Workbench v8.
