Project description:The goals of this study are to study the regulatory network of the two maize endosperm-specific transcription factors O2 and PBF by 16-DAP endosperm transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) of their mutants and wild type. The results utilize the expression pattern of global genes regulated by PBF and O2 to elucidate their control for storage compounds synthesis in maize kernels. The 16-DAP endosperm transcriptome of wild type (WT) and mutants including opaque2, PbfRNAi and PbfRNAi;o2 were generated by RNA-seq with three biological replicates per genotype on Illumina HiSeqTM2500.

Project description:The goals of this study are to compare NGS-derived transcriptomes (RNA-Seq) derived from ded1-ref mutant and normal maize endosperm tissue. Homozygous ded1-ref mutants exhibit a seed defect. Maize Ded1 encodes a transcription factor. This study characterizes DEGs between ded1-ref and normal endosperm and serves to identify direct target genes together with DAP-seq data.

Project description:In angiosperms, the endosperm provides nutrients for embryogenesis or seed germination and is the primary tissue where gene imprinting occurs. To map the imprintome of the early developing endosperm in maize, we performed high-throughput transcriptome sequencing of the kernels at 0, 3, 5 days after pollination (DAP) and the endosperms at 7, 10, and 15 DAP produced from the B73 and Mo17 reciprocal crosses. We observed a gradual increase of paternal gene mRNAs in the 3- and 5-DAP kernels. In the 7-DAP endosperm, the majority of the tested genes reached a ratio of 2m:1p suggesting that paternal genes were nearly fully activated by 7 DAP. A total of 116, 234 and 63 imprinted genes exhibiting parent-specific expression were identified in the 7-, 10-, and 15-DAP endosperms, respectively. The highest amount of paternally expressed genes (PEGs) was found at 7 DAP mainly due to the significantly deviated parental allele expression ratio of these genes at this stage, while nearly 80% of the maternally expressed genes (MEGs) were specific to 10 DAP which were primarily attributed to the sharply increased expression levels compared to the other stages. GO enrichment analysis of the imprinted genes indicated the 10-DAP-specific MEGs were involved in the nutrient uptake and allocation through auxin signaling pathway in the maize endosperm coincident with the endosperm developmental stage associated with the beginning of starch and storage protein accumulation The unpollinated kernels (0 DAP), the kernels of 3, 5 DAP and endosperms of 7 10, 15 DAP from the B73 and Mo17 reciprocal crosses were used to perform high-throughput sequencing using the Illumina HiSeq2000 platform

Project description:At 35 DAP whole kernels (pericarp + endosperm + embryo) without glumes of green house grown ears of heterozygous (+/bt2-H2328), self-pollinated plants were visually divided into pools of phenotypically normal looking kernels (small indentation, slightly smaller than mutant kernels, genotype +/+ or +/bt2-H2328) and pools of phenotypically mutant kernels (plump, round kernels, slightly larger than normal kernels, genotype bt2-H2328/bt2-H2328). Pools consisted of 4 kernels. 3 different ears were used for a biological duplicate. Experiment Overall Design: 4 arrays - maize

Project description:Peroxidase (POD) activity was found to be positively correlated with insect resistance in maize kernels. Thus, we purified active PODs from (Zea mays, p84C3) kernels and subjected to LC-MS/MS analyses. To verify the identified putative plant PODs, we produced them by recombinant expression in E. coli. Whereas B4FFK9 did not display in vitro activity, B6T173 (ZmPrx35) was active and also exhibits a heme cofactor. B6T173 accounts for about 80% of the POD activity in the kernel, according to densitometric evaluation.

Project description:In angiosperms, endosperm plays a crucial role in coordinating seed development through genetic balance and molecular interaction, and is the primary tissue where genomic imprinting occurs. To identify small interfering RNA (siRNA) “imprintome” and its paternal transcriptome activation in early developing maize endosperms, we performed high-throughput small RNA sequencing of whole kernels at 0, 3 and 5 days after pollination (DAP) and endosperms at 7, 10 and 15 DAP, using B73 by Mo17 reciprocal crosses. We observed gradually increased expression of paternal siRNAs in 3- and 5-DAP kernels and balanced contribution of parental siRNA transcriptome in 7-DAP endosperm, followed by identification 460 imprinted siRNA loci with majority (456/460, 99.1%) being maternally expressed that occurred at 10 DAP. Genome-wide scanning found 13 imprinted genes harboring imprinted siRNA loci within their 2-Kb flanking regions, which was significantly different from random probability based on simulation analysis. Finally, gene ontology categories of “response to auxin stimulus”, “response to brassinosteroid stimulus” and “regulation of gene expression” for genes harboring 10-DAP specific siRNAs and “nutrient reservoir activity”, “protein localization to vacuole” and “secondary metabolite biosynthetic process” for genes harboring 15-DAP specific siRNAs indicated that siRNAs could be involved in influencing specific cellular or biochemical processes that are essential for endosperm development, e.g. nutrient uptake and allocation. Although the mechanism of how these siRNAs regulating endosperm key events remains unclear, this study provided us an alternative perspective of siRNA function in plant. The unpollinated kernels (0 DAP), the kernels of 3, 5 DAP and endosperms of 7 10, 15 DAP from the B73 and Mo17 reciprocal crosses were used to perform high-throughput sequencing using the Illumina HiSeq2000 platform

Project description:Quality Protein Maize (QPM) was created by selecting for genetic modifiers that convert the starchy endosperm of an opaque2 (o2) mutant to a hard, vitreous phenotype. Genetic analysis has shown there are multiple, unlinked o2 modifiers (Opm), but their identity and mode of action are unknown. A microarray hybridization performed with RNA obtained from true breeding o2 progeny with vitreous and opaque kernel phenotypes identified a small group of differentially expressed genes, some of which map at or near the Opm QTLs. Compared 18 days after pollination endosperm transcript profiles in true breeding modified (vitreous; V) and non-modified (opaque; O) opaque 2 kernels. Used four vitreous biological reps (V1-V4) and four opaque biological reps (O1-O4). Each biological rep is a pool of 25 kernels representing 5 kernels form each of 5 uniform phenotype ears (vitreous or opaque). Four arrays used: Array 1= V1 vs O1, Array 2 = V2 vs O2, Array 3 = V3 vs O3, Array 4 = V4 vs O4

Project description:Endosperm is a filial structure resulting from a second fertilization event in angiosperms. As an absorptive storage organ, endosperm plays an essential role in support of embryo development or seedling germination. The accumulation of carbohydrate and protein storage products in cereal endosperm provides humanity with a major portion of its food, feed and renewal resources. However, little is known regarding the regulatory gene networks controlling endosperm proliferation and differentiation. As a first step towards understanding these processes, we have profiled all mRNAs in kernel and endosperm of maize at eight successive stages during the first 12 days after pollination. Analysis of these gene sets has identified temporal programs of gene expression including hundreds of transcription-factor genes. We also show a close correlation of these sequentially expressed gene sets with distinct spatial programs of expression in distinct compartments of the developing endosperm. The results constitute a preliminary atlas of spatiotemproal patterns of endosperm gene expression in support of future efforts for understanding the underlying mechanisms that control seed yield and quality. The unpollinated kernels (0 DAP), the kernels of 2, 3, 4, 6 DAP and hand dissected endosperms of 8, 10, 12 DAP from the B73 were used to perform high-throughput sequencing using the SOLiD platform
