Comparison of transcriptionnal changes in Petunia hybrida WT and ram1-2 induced by mycorrhiza

ABSTRACT: Aim: compare the transcriptionnal responses induced by mycorrhiza in wild type and GRAS transcription factor RAM1 mutant ram1-2 in roots. Results: 650 genes were upregulated in mycorrhized WT (fold change >5; FDR<0,05, experiment difference>10) and 201 in the ram1 mutant. 182 genes were induced in both WT and ram1. 468 and 19 genes were induced only in WT or ram1-2 respectively. 91 genes were downregulated in mycorrhized WT (fold change <5; FDR<0,05, experiment difference>10) and 51 in ram1-2. There was no overlap in the downregulated genes. Conclusion: The transcriptionnal response to mycorrhiza is more important in WT than in ram1-2. Gene induction in ram1 mostly overlap with wild type. Our results confirm that ram1 plays a central role in the root response to mycorrhization.

Project description:Purpose: we here adress the gene regulation of G.rosea in response to plant signals in the switch from asymbiotic to presymbiotic growth. Methods: -Strigolactone response: Spores of G.rosea were treated with GR24 (a synthetic strigolactone analog) and collected at 2 days after treatment. Control conditions: spores treated with solvent (M medium acetone 0.1%. Assay and control were performed in triplicates. -Root exsudate response: a cellophane membrane allowing molecule exchanges was deposited on in vitro Daucus carotta roots. Spores were spotted on this membrane and collected 10 days later. Control conditions: spores were spotted on cellophane membrane directly deposited on solid M medium. Assay and control were performed in triplicates. -Fungal gene expression were analyzed on mRNA were sequenced by Illumina HiSeq. sequencing Reads were firstly used in the de novo assembly of Gigaspora rosea Non Redundent Virtual Transcript and then mapped on the assembled transcriptome using CLC genomics workbench. Results: while GR24 triggered the regulation of only few genes which includes 32 genes upregulated (fold chang >2; FDR<0,05, experiment difference>10) and 61 downregulated (fold change < -2; FDR<0,05,experiment difference>10) genes, root exudates regulated several times more genes. A total of 390 genes were up-regulated by root exudates and 442 genes were down-regulated. Moreover, a majority of the genes (23 of 32 upregulated and 25 of 61 downregulated genes) regulated by GR24 were also regulated by root exudates. This is in consistant with the fact that strigolactones secreted from plant root are already characterized as a group of plant signals during AM symbiosis. The result that a large part of genes were differentialy expressed in reponse to root exudates but not GR24 suggested the presence of other plant signals than strigolactones. Conclusions: as a key player during the switch from asymbiotic to presymbiotic growth of G.rosea, plant root secreted signals - including but not limited to striglactones - significantly modified the expression of many G.rosea genes. The genes differentially expressed are mainly involved in oxidation-redution and metabolic processes that might contribute to prepare G.rosea for the following steps of symbiotic association with the host plant.

Project description:Purpose: The recent publication of the fungal mutualist R. irregularis genome facilitated transcriptomic studies. We here adress the gene regulation of R. irregularis in response to plant signals in the switch from asymbiotic to presymbiotic growth Methods: Spores of R. irregularis were treated with GR24 (strigolactone synthetic analog) and collected at 1 hour, 2 days, 7 days and 14 days after induction. To stimulate the fungus with root exudates, a cellophane membrane allowing molecule exchanges was deposited on in vitro Daucus carotta roots. Spores were spotted on this membrane and collected 14 days after. To monitor fungal gene regulation, control conditions were also prepared and mRNA were sequenced by HiSeq Illumina. Read were mapped on the genome assembly with CLCworkbench Results: At 1 hour, GR24 triggered the overexpression (fold change >2; FDR<0,05) of 123 genes and the repression (fold change < -2; FDR<0,05) of 17 genes. At 2 days, 33 genes were induced, 13 repressed ; at 7 days 106 genes were induced and 13 repressed and at 14 days 19 genes were induced and 10 repressed. Few genes overlap between the different time point. Root exudates induced 251 genes and repressed 63 genes. Few genes were regulated by both GR24 and root exudates. Conclusions: GR24 kinetic showed that fungal gene regulation is sequential, quick and involves hundreds of genes. Among those genes, a chitin synthase, involved either in fungal growth either in symbiotic signal production was strongly induced at 1hour, 7 days and 14 days. As few genes are regulated in response to root exudates and GR24, we propose that other plant signals play a role in ealy steps and trigger fungal gene regulation. Several genes coding for putative secreted peptides were induced in response to these plant signals. These genes might be effectors involved in early plant defense manipulation, then facilitating root entry. Thus, they are good candidates to investigate early steps of plant penetration.

Project description:Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) is known to be a mutually beneficial plant-fungal symbiosis; however, the effect of mycorrhization is heavily dependent on multiple biotic and abiotic factors. Therefore, for the proper employment of such plant-fungal symbiotic systems in agriculture, a detailed understanding of the molecular basis of the plant developmental response to mycorrhization is needed. The aim of this work was to uncover the physiological and metabolic alterations in pea (Pisum sativum L.) leaves associated with mycorrhization at key plant developmental stages. Plants of pea cv. Finale were grown in constant environmental conditions under phosphate deficiency. The plants were analyzed at six distinct time points, which corresponded to certain developmental stages of the pea: I: 7 days post inoculation (DPI) when the second leaf is fully unfolded with one pair of leaflets and a simple tendril; II: 21 DPI at first leaf with two pairs of leaflets and a complex tendril; III: 32 DPI when the floral bud is enclosed; IV: 42 DPI at the first open flower; V: 56 DPI when the pod is filled with green seeds; and VI: 90-110 DPI at the dry harvest stage. Inoculation with Rhizophagus irregularis had no effect on the fresh or dry shoot weight, the leaf photochemical activity, accumulation of chlorophyll a, b or carotenoids. However, at stage III (corresponding to the most active phase of mycorrhiza development), the number of internodes between cotyledons and the youngest completely developed leaf was lower in the inoculated plants than in those without inoculation. Moreover, inoculation extended the vegetation period of the host plants, and resulted in increase of the average dry weight per seed at stage VI. The leaf metabolome, as analyzed with GC-MS, included about three hundred distinct metabolites and showed a strong correlation with plant age, and, to a lesser extent, was influenced by mycorrhization. Metabolic shifts influenced the levels of sugars, amino acids and other intermediates of nitrogen and phosphorus metabolism. The use of unsupervised dimension reduction methods showed that (i) at stage II, the metabolite spectra of inoculated plants were similar to those of the control, and (ii) at stages IV and V, the leaf metabolic profiles of inoculated plants shifted towards the profiles of the control plants at earlier developmental stages. At stage IV the inoculated plants exhibited a higher level of metabolism of nitrogen, organic acids, and lipophilic compounds in comparison to control plants. Thus, mycorrhization led to the retardation of plant development, which was also associated with higher seed biomass accumulation in plants with an extended vegetation period. The symbiotic crosstalk between host plant and AM fungi leads to alterations in several biochemical pathways the details of which need to be elucidated in further studies.
