Project description:Enhancing grain production of rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a top priority in ensuring food security for human being. One approach to increase yield is to delay leaf senescence and to extend the available time for photosynthesis. microRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulators for aging and cellular senescence in eukayotes. However, miRNAs and their roles in rice leaf senescence remain unexplored. Here, we report identification of miRNAs and their putative target genes by deep sequencing of six small RNA libraries, six RNA-seq libraries and two degradome libraries from the leaves of two super hybrid rice, Nei-2-You 6 (N2Y6, age-resistant rice) and Liang-You-Pei 9 (LYP9, age-sensitive rice). Totally 372 known miRNAs and 162 miRNA candidates were identified, and 1145 targets were identified. Compared with the expression of miRNAs in the leaves of LYP9, the numbers of miRNAs up-regulated and down-regulated in the leaves of N2Y6 were 47 and 30 at early stage of grain-filling, 21 and 17 at the middle stage, and 11 and 37 at the late stage, respectively. Six miRNA families, osa-miR159, osa-miR160 osa-miR164, osa-miR167, osa-miR172 and osa-miR1848, targeting the genes encoding APETALA2 (AP2), zinc finger proteins, salicylic acid-induced protein 19 (SIP19), Auxin response factors (ARF) and NAC transcription factors, respectively, were found to be involved in leaf senescence through phytohormone signaling pathways. These results provided valuable information for understanding the miRNA-mediated leaf senescence of rice, and offered an important foundation for rice breeding.

Project description:Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is the main staple food for nearly half of the world’s population. Cereals, especially rice is deficient in micronutrients such as Fe. However, rice genotypes differ in grain Fe concentration (Panda B, et.al. Am J Plant Sci. 2014;5:2829-41. doi: 10.4236/ajps.2014.518299). The present study is focused on identification of gene(s) involved in Fe accumulation in developing rice grain through high throughput RNA-seq technology and to understand the basis of differential Fe accumulation in developing rice grain. Two cultivars of rice viz. Sharbati (high Fe) and Lalat (low Fe) differing in grain iron concentration were used in the study. Root and grain transcriptome sequences of these two cultivars (at mid-grain filling stage) were generated using RNA-Seq (Illumina Hiseq 2000 platform). For each genotype, on an average 9.7 and 7 Gb data was generated for grain and root samples, respectively. The short reads were aligned against the Nipponbare reference genome (IRGSP build 5.0), thereby successfully mapping 95% and 67% of the reads from grain and root samples, respectively. Genes known to be involved in Fe metabolism were analyzed for expression. Among the genes coding for phytosiderophore synthesizing enzymes, OsNAS1 and OsNAAT2 showed higher expression in the grains of Sharbati while OsDMAS1 had higher expression in its root. Of the 18 yellow-stripe like (YSL) genes in rice, only 11 were found to be expressed in the two cultivars. Out of these, 2 (OsYSL2 and OsYSL 8) were up-regulated in the grains of Sharbati highlighting their importance in the uptake of Fe from soil and its accumulation in the developing grain. Two other genes (OsFRO1 and OsIRT1) known to be involved in Fe uptake by the root were also found to be highly expressed in the root of Sharbati. Our findings suggest that higher grain iron concentration of cv. Sharbati might be due to higher expression of key Fe transporters (viz. OsYSL2, OsYSL8 and OsITR1) and root membrane bound OsFRO1, which give an advantage in terms of absorption, transport and assimilation of Fe by this cultivar as compared to the low iron containing cultivar, Lalat.

Project description:Popular rice mega varieties lack sufficient key micronutrients (e.g., Fe, Zn), vitamins and a balanced amino acid composition that are essential for a healthy diet. The major bottleneck for improving the nutritional quality of popular rice varieties through conventional breeding or gene technology is our lack of an integrated understanding of the biochemical and molecular processes that occur during rice grain filling (and their determining genes or loci). In this project, we will perform molecular expression profiling on specific tissue layers of the rice grain. To perform this experiment, the material will be developing rice seeds from plants grown hydroponically under controlled greenhouse conditions. Then, the laser microdissection approach will be applied to dissect different parts of the grain (i.e, vascular trace, aleurone, nucellar epidermis, etc). Total RNA will be extracted from these dissected parts and RNA sequencing will be performed. In this project, we will learn how the synthesis and deposition of grain nutrients is regulated, particularly, during grain filling.

Project description:The ‘O3-responsive transcriptome’ behavior in the panicles and grains of rice plant was studied individually through high-throughput oligo-DNA microarray technique. Obtained results showed that O3 differentially regulated 620 and 130 genes in the panicles and grains separately, by at least two-fold changes. However, only five genes were found to be common in both the tissues, suggesting towards the tissue specific O3-sensitivity in rice plants. Among the O3-responsive genes, 176 and 444 genes were up- and down-regulated in rice panicle; whereas, 24 and 106 genes in rice grain, respectively. Further mapping onto various regulatory events revealed that, the majority of differentially expressed genes were mainly involved in signaling, hormonal, cell wall, transcription, proteolysis, and defense events. Many previously unknown O3-responsive novel genes were identified, including the brassinosteroid insensitive-1 receptor kinase, wall-associated kinase like receptor, calcium-dependent protein kinases, phosphatidylinositol kinases, G-protein components, ethylene insensitive-3, cellulose synthases, pectatelyase, etc. Inventory of 745 O3-responsive genes and their mapping will surely expand our knowledge on novel regulatory processes in both panicles and grains of rice; and, serve as a resource towards the designing of rice crops for future high-O3 world. Comparison between healthy rice plant panicles and ozone treated plant panicles (for 8 h) and seed (grain) of healthy rice plants and of rice plants grown under ozone for their lifeftime was performed. Three biological replicates (panicle or seed; pooled) were used, and dye-swaped.

Project description:Melatonin, a natural phytohormone present in most plants, plays multiple roles in plant growth and stress responses. Although melatonin biosynthesis-related genes have been suggested to possess diverse biological functions, their roles and functional mechanisms in regulating rice grain yield remain largely unexplored. Here, we revealed that a rice caffeic acid O-methyltransferase (OsCOMT) gene is involved in melatonin biosynthesis through in vitro and in vivo evidences. Transgenic assays show OsCOMT significantly delays leaf senescence at the grain filling stage, and then improves photosynthesis efficiency. Further experimental and transcriptomic data suggest that OsCOMT inhibits the degradation of chlorophyll and chloroplast, which in turn delay leaf senescence. Histological analysis also reveals the role of OsCOMT in the development of vascular bundle system in rice. The levels of melatonin and cytokinin were significantly increased in the culm of OsCOMT-overexpression plant relative to those of the wild-type (WT). In the OsCOMT-overexpression line, the cytokinin-biosynthesizing genes were up-regulated and the cytokinin-degrading genes were down-regulated, thereby increasing the cytokinin levels compared with the WT. Thus, OsCOMT-mediated vascular patterning may result from the crosstalk between melatonin and cytokinin. More importantly, OsCOMT significantly increased grain number and yield production of rice in various background, including Nipponbare (NIP) and Suken118 (SK118). Our findings show novel insights into melatonin-mediated leaf senescence and vascular patterning, and provide a new strategy to enhance rice yield production.

Project description:Favorable grain filling ability is crucial for seed development and plant yield1, with less fertilizer applying is the most urgent goals to meet the growing demands of green and safe food. However, the balance mechanism between grain filling and nutrient elements is still unclear so far. Here, we describe a gene GAF1, specially expressed in endosperm aleurone layer, encoding a phosphate transporter, positively controls rice grain filling and seed development and also contributes to phosphate balance was mapped in our study. To study the regulation pattern of GAF1, we performed the RNA-seq analysis of NIL-GAF1 and NIL-gaf1 at middle grain filling stage in seeds. The data shows that many pathways related to starch and sugar metabolism were enriched, and many starch synthesis related genes and phosphate response genes were up-regulated or down-regulated. These data further support that seed specific expressed GAF1 plays a key role in regulating both phosphate homeostasis and seed development. More importantly, overexpression of GAF1 can significantly improve grain filling and thus yield enhanced plant production in field.

Project description:Plant height and grain size are important agronomic traits affecting rice yield. Various plant hormones participate in the regulation of plant height and grain size in rice. However, how these hormones cooperate to regulate plant height and grain size is poorly understood. In this study, we identified a brassinosteroid-related gene, hfr131, from an introgression line constructed using Oryza longistaminata, that caused brassinosteroid insensitivity and reduced plant height and grain length in rice. Further study showed that hfr131 is a new allele of OsBRI1 with a single-nucleotide polymorphism (G to A) in the coding region, leading to a T988I conversion at a conserved site of the kinase domain. An auxin response factor, OsARF17, could bind to the promoter region of HFR131 and positively regulated HFR131 expression, thereby regulating the plant height and grain length, and influencing brassinosteroid sensitivity. Haplotype analysis showed that the consociation of OsAFR17Hap1/HFR131Hap6 conferred an increase in grain length. Overall, this study identified hfr131 as a new allele of OsBRI1 that regulates plant height and grain length in rice, revealed that brassinosteroid and auxin might coordinate through OsARF17–HFR131 interaction, and provided a potential breeding target for improvement of rice yield.

Project description:Floral organ shape and size in cereal crops can affect grain size and yield, so genes that regulate their development are promising breeding targets. The lemma, which protects inner floral organs, can physically constrain grain growth; while the awn, a needle-like extension of the lemma, creates photosynthates to promote grain fill. Although several genes and modules controlling grain size and awn/lemma growth in rice have been characterized, these processes, and the relationships between them, are not well understood for barley and wheat. Here, we demonstrate that the barley E-class gene HvMADS1 positively regulates awn length and lemma width, leading to increased grain size and weight. Cytological data indicated that MADS1 promotes grain growth by promoting cell proliferation, while multi-omics data revealed MADS1 target genes associated with cell cycle, phytohormone signaling, and developmental processes. We defined two direct targets of MADS1 regulation, HvSHI and HvDL, whose knockout mutants mimic awn and/or lemma phenotypes of mads1 mutants; and demonstrated that MADS1 interacts APETALA2 (A-class) to synergistically activate downstream genes in awn/lemma development. Notably, we found that MADS1 function remains conserved in wheat, promoting cell proliferation to increase awn length. These findings extend our understanding of MADS1 function in floral organ development to inform strategies for Triticeae crop improvement. Three replicates of barley tissues were collected for RNA extraction: lemma and awn from the central part of lemma and awn from WT and mads1 mutants for RNA-seq and RT-qPCR
