Project description:Arabidopsis HMA4 transformation facilitates Zn root-to-shoot translocation, but in Zn-supply dependent manner. It implies that distinct effects of HMA4 expression on Zn root:shoot distribution in transgenics grown under different Zn supply regimes results from the interaction between the transgene activity and the molecular background of the host plant. Microarray analysis was performed to compare expression profiles in leaves of transgenic and WT-plants grown in the presence of 5 µM Zn to identify the molecular mechanism underlying the difference in Zn root:shoot distribution between 35S:AtHMA4-expressing and wild-type tomato. To recognize tissue specific alterations in gene transcription in tomato leaves invoked by AtHMA4 expression, spongy paerenchyma + lower epidermis and palisade paerenchyma + upper epidermis were isolated using LCM technique. Understanding the interplay between the transgene and the endogens is crucial for planning genetic modification for Zn-biofortification purpose. 10-day old tomato plant (35S:AtHMA4 expressing and WT) were subjected to 5 µM Zn (added as ZnSo4) for 15 days. Three independent experiments were performed. At the end of each experiment the 3rd and 4th leaf (counting upwards) were collected, 1-2 mm long and 2-3 mm wide fragments were cut out from between the vascular bundles in the middle part of each leaf, embedded in NEG-50 Frozen Section Medium (Thermo Scientific), and frozen in liquid nitrogen. Total RNA isolated from three batches of leaves was amplified and used for three independent microarray analysis.

Project description:Ectopic expression of AtHMA4 in tomato modified Zn accumulation in a Zn-supply dependent manner. It suggests that HMA4-expression under a range of Zn-supply differentially modifies the expression of endogens, which contributes to different Zn-related phenotypes. To identify genes differentially regulated in 35S:AtHMA4-expressing and wild-type tomato, the transcription profiles were compared between roots of transgenic and WT-plants grown in the presence of 5 µM Zn. An effort was undertaken to recognize tissue specific alterations underlying the difference in Zn root:shoot distribution between tested plant lines and LCM technique was used to isolate epidermis+cortex and stele from roots.Understanding the interplay between the transgene and the endogens is crucial for planning genetic modification for Zn-biofortification purpose.

Project description:Glutathione is a tripeptide involved in diverse aspects of plant metabolism. We investigated how the reduced form of glutathione, GSH, applied site-specifically to plants, affects zinc (Zn) distribution and behavior in oilseed rape plants (Brassica napus) cultured hydroponically. Foliar-applied GSH significantly increased the Zn content in shoots and the root-to-shoot Zn translocation ratio; furthermore, this treatment raised the Zn concentration in the cytosol of root cells and substantially enhanced Zn xylem loading. Notably, microarray analysis revealed that the gene encoding pectin methylesterase was upregulated in roots following foliar GSH treatment. We conclude that certain physiological signals triggered in response to foliar-applied GSH were transported via sieve tubes and functioned in root cells, which, in turn, increased Zn availability in roots by releasing Zn from their cell wall. Consequently, root-to-shoot translocation of Zn was activated and Zn accumulation in the shoot was markedly increased.

Project description:Shoot zinc (Zn) in Brassica oleracea is affected by soil Zn and phosphorus (P) concentrations. Most problematic is the negative impact of P fertilizers on Zn concentrations in crops, which makes balancing yield and mineral quality challenging. To evaluate molecular mechanisms involved in the accumulation of large shoot Zn concentrations regardless of the P supply, two B. oleracea accessions were grown hydroponically for two weeks with different combination of P and Zn supply. Ionome profiling and deep RNA sequencing of roots revealed interactions of P and Zn in planta, without apparent phenotypic effects. In addition, increasing P supply did not reduce tissue Zn concentration. Substantial changes in gene expression in roots of both accessions ensured nutritionally sufficient P and Zn uptake. Numerous genes were differentially expressed after changing Zn or P supply and most of them were unique to only one accession, highlighting different strategies in achieving nutrient sufficiency. Thus, different gene networks responded to the changing P and Zn supply in the two accessions. Additionally, enrichment analysis of gene ontology classes revealed that genes involved in lipid metabolism, response to starvation, and anion transport mechanisms were most responsive to the contrasting P and Zn supply in both accessions. The results agreed with previously studies demonstrating alterations in P transport and phospholipid metabolism in response to reduced P supply. Knowledge of genes responsive to P or Zn supply will help illuminate the interactions between these elements in their uptake and accumulation by plants and might highlight candidate genes for breeding high-yield-high-Zn crops.

Project description:The model Zn hyperaccumulators Arabidopsis halleri and Noccaea caerulescens share elevated nicotianamine synthase (NAS) expression relative to non-accumulators among a core of alterations in metal homeostasis gene expression. Suppression of AhNAS2 expression by RNAi resulted in strongly reduced root NA accumulation and a concomitant decrease in root-to-shoot-translocation of Zn but not of other micronutrients. Few secondary effects on the root transcriptome were detected by microarray analysis.

Project description:ABSTRACT: Background: Though central to our understanding of how roots perform their vital function of scavenging water and solutes from the soil, no direct genetic evidence currently exists to support the foundational model that suberin acts to form a chemical barrier limiting the extracellular, or apoplastic, transport of water and solutes in plant roots. Methodologies/Principle Findings: Using the newly characterized enhanced suberin1 (esb1) mutant, we established a connection in Arabidopsis thaliana between suberin in the root, and both water movement through the plant, and solute accumulation in the shoot. Esb1 mutants, characterized by increased root suberin, were found to have reduced day time transpiration rates, and increased water use efficiency during their vegetative growth period. Furthermore, these changes in suberin and water transport were associated with decreases in the accumulation of Ca, Mn and Zn, and increases in the accumulation of Na, S, K, As, Se and Mo in the shoot. Conclusions/Significance: Here we present direct genetic evidence establishing that suberin in the roots plays a critical role in controlling both water and mineral ion uptake and transport to the leaves. The changes observed in the elemental accumulation in leaves are also interpreted as evidence that a significant component of the radial root transport of Ca, Mn and Zn occurs in the apoplast.

Project description:Plants face temporal and spatial variation in nitrogen (N) availability. This includes heterogeneity in soil nitrate (NO3-) content. To face these constraints, plants modify their gene expression and physiological processes to optimize N acquisition. This plasticity relies on a complex long-distance root-shoot-root signaling network that remains poorly understood. We previously showed that cytokinin (CK) biosynthesis is required to trigger systemic N signaling. Here, we performed split-root experiments and used a combination of CK-related mutant analyses, hormone profiling, transcriptomic analysis, NO3- uptake assays, and root growth measurements to gain insight into systemic N signaling in Arabidopsis thaliana. By comparing wild-type plants and mutants affected in CK biosynthesis and ABCG14-dependent root-to-shoot translocation of CK, we revealed an important role for active trans-Zeatin (tZ) in systemic N signaling. Both rapid sentinel gene regulation and long-term functional acclimation to heterogeneous NO3- supply, including NO3- transport and root growth regulation, are likely mediated by the integration of tZ content in shoots. Furthermore, shoot transcriptome profiling revealed that glutamate/glutamine metabolism is likely a target of tZ root-to-shoot translocation, prompting an interesting hypothesis regarding shoot-to-root communication. Finally, this study highlights tZ-independent pathways regulating gene expression in shoots as well as NO3- uptake activity in response to total N-deprivation. We used microarrays to detail transcriptional reprogramming occurring in shoots in response to heterogeneous nitrate supply compared to homogeneous nitrate supply in wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana plants and in two mutants affected in cytokinin biosynthesis and transport.

Project description:In comparison with provision of either ammonium or nitrate alone, simultaneously supplying both forms of N results in superior growth and yield for the majority of plants including rice. Using a rice 22K oligo-array, we performed transcriptome analysis to identify genes of rice (Oryza sativa L. ssp. japonica) responsive to change of N-supply forms and N-starvation. Using the supply of ammonium nitrate (one to one molar ratio) as control, the total number of root genes that were equal or more than two fold up- or down- regulated was 445, 324, and 781 by upon supply of either ammonium or nitrate or continuous N starvation, respectively for 96 h. In the shoot the equivalent numbers were much smaller only 32, 58, and 165, respectively. Clustering of the rice genes associated with different environmental stresses revealed substantial organ specificity of the root and shoot to N starvation, and also to the N supply form. Genes encoding transporters for ammonium and nitrate, nitrate reductase, glutamate dehydrogenase, and aspartate amino transferase, showed great response to change of the N supply form, especially to N starvation. Some of the genes involved in chlorophyll metabolism, carbon fixation and assimilation, were enhanced by ammonium supply only, but significantly suppressed by N-starvation. In the shoot there was increased expression of more general stress genes under nitrate when compared to ammonium nutrition. In the root the reverse situation was true with more apparent stress under ammonium nutrition. The microarray approach has revealed new levels of complexity in the response of rice to the form of N supply.

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.
