Project description:The fate of the carbon stocked in permafrost soils following global warming and permafrost thaw is of major concern in view of the potential for increased CH4 and CO2 emissions from these soils. Complex carbon compound degradation and greenhouse gas emissions are due to soil microbial communities, but their composition and functional potential in permafrost soils are largely unknown. Here, a 2 m deep permafrost and its overlying active layer soil were subjected to metagenome sequencing, quantitative PCR, and microarray analyses. The active layer soil and 2 m permafrost soil microbial community structures were very similar, with Actinobacteria being the dominant phylum. The two soils also possessed a highly similar spectrum of functional genes, especially when compared to other already published metagenomes. Key genes related to methane generation, methane oxidation and organic matter degradation were highly diverse for both soils in the metagenomic libraries and some (e.g. pmoA) showed relatively high abundance in qPCR assays. Genes related to nitrogen fixation and ammonia oxidation, which could have important roles following climatic change in these nitrogen-limited environments, showed low diversity but high abundance. The 2 m permafrost soil showed lower abundance and diversity for all the assessed genes and taxa. Experimental biases were also evaluated and showed that the whole community genome amplification technique used caused large representational biases in the metagenomic libraries. This study described for the first time the detailed functional potential of permafrost-affected soils and detected several genes and microorganisms that could have crucial importance following permafrost thaw. A 2m deep permafrost sample and it overlying active layer were sampled and their metagenome analysed. For microarray analyses, 8 other soil samples from the same region were used for comparison purposes.

Project description:Permafrost soils are extreme environments that exert low-temperature, desiccation and starvation stress on bacteria over thousands to millions of years. To understand how Psychrobacter arcticus 273-4 survived for > 20,000 years in permafrost, transcriptome analysis was performed during growth at 22°C, 17°C, 0°C, and -6°C using a mixed effects ANOVA model. Genes for transcription, translation, energy production and most biosynthetic pathways were down-regulated at low temperatures. Evidence of isozyme exchange was detected over temperature for D-alanyl-D-alanine carboxypeptidases (dac1 and dac2), DEAD-box RNA helicases (csdA and Psyc_0943) and energy efficient substrate incorporation pathways for ammonium and acetate. Specific functions were compensated by up-regulation at low temperature including genes for the biosynthesis of proline, tryptophan, methionine, and histidine. RNases and peptidases were generally up-regulated at low temperatures. Changes in energy metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and RNase gene expression were consistent with induction of the stringent response by relA activity. In contrast to results observed in other psychrophiles and mesophiles, only clpB and hsp33 were up-regulated at low temperature with no up-regulation of other chaperones and peptidyl-prolyl isomerases. Knockout mutants of relA, csdA, and dac2 were all deficient in low temperature growth, but a mutant in dac1 was deficient in growth at 17°C. The combined data suggest that the basal biological machinery including translation, transcription and energy metabolism are well adapted to function across the -6°C to 22°C growth range of P. arcticus and temperature compensation by gene expression was employed to address specific challenges to low-temperature growth.

Project description:The aim of this study was to characterize the tissue tolerance mechanisms of rice under salt stress. Our preliminary experiment identified a japonica rice landrace Shuzenji-kokumai (SZK), which is considered to be tissue-tolerant because it can maintain better growth than salt-sensitive rice while having a high Na+ concentration in the shoots under salt stress. These mechanisms differ from those of most salt-tolerant rice varieties, which have low Na+ concentrations in the shoots. We compared the physiological and molecular characteristics of SZK with those of FL478, a salt-tolerant variety, and Kunishi, a salt-sensitive variety. Under salt stress conditions, SZK accumulated high levels of Na+ in roots, leaf sheaths, and leaf blades, which were almost as high as those in the salt-sensitive Kunishi. Simultaneously, SZK maintained better growth and physiological status, as determined by its higher dry weight, lower electrolyte leakage ratio, and lower malondialdehyde concentration. OsNHX1 and OsNHX2 were up-regulated in the leaf sheaths of SZK, suggesting that Na+ is compartmentalized in the vacuole to avoid Na+ toxicity. In contrast, FL478 showed up-regulation of OsHKT1;5 and OsSOS1 in the roots, which exclude Na+ from the shoots. RNA-seq analysis showed that 4623 and 1998 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were detected in the leaf sheaths and leaf blades of SZK, respectively. Among them, the HSP (heat shock protein) gene expression was highly up-regulated only in SZK, indicating that SZK protects against the protein damage caused by Na+ toxicity. Our findings suggest that SZK has atypical survival mechanisms under salt-stress conditions. These mechanisms offer potential traits for improving salt tolerance in rice.

Project description:Salt stress causes the quality change and significant yield loss of tomato. However, the resources of salt-resistant tomato were still deficient and the mechanisms of tomato resistance to salt stress were still unclear. In this study, the proteomic profiles of two salt-tolerant and salt-sensitive tomato cultivars were investigated to deciphered the salt-resistance mechanism of tomato and provide novel resources for tomato breeding. We found that there is an over-abundant proteins relevant to Nitrate and amino acids metabolisms in the Salt-tolerant cultivars. The significant increase in expression of proteins involved in Brassinolides and GABA biosynthesis were verified in salt-tolerant cultivars, strengthening the salt resistance of tomato. Meanwhile, salt-tolerant cultivars with higher abundance and activity of antioxidant-related proteins have more advantages in dealing with reactive oxygen species caused by salt stress. And the salt-tolerant cultivars had higher photosynthetic activity based on overexpression of proteins functioned in chloroplast, guaranteeing the sufficient nutrient for plant growth under salt stress. Furthermore, three key proteins were identified as important salt-resistant resources for breeding salt-tolerant cultivars, including Sterol side chain reductase, gamma aminobutyrate transaminase and Starch synthase. Our results provided series valuable strategies for salt-tolerant cultivars which can be used in future

Cy-dye labelled cDNA populations were generated from total RNA extracted from mid-exponential growth phase cultures of Psychrobacter arcticus 273-4 grown at 22°C, 17°C (optimal growth rate), 0°C, and -6°C. All pairwise temperature comparisons were performed in this 4-level single factor experiment with dye swapping nested within biological replicate. Five biological replicates (20 samples totalled over all temperatures) were included in each comparison for a total of 30 hybridizations. Data were analyzed using R/MAANOVA with an ANOVA model which included gene, dye, biological replicate, slide, and growth temperature terms (with interactions). Spike-in mRNAs were included immediate following the cell lysis stage in order to serve as monitors for RNA degradation from lysis through hybridization.

Project description:High salinity is one of the major environmental factors, which hampers plant growth, development and productivity. To better understand the regulatory mechanisms by which plants cope with salt stress, we used genetic approaches to identify salt hypersensitive mutant 9 (sahy9), a new allele of apum23, in Arabidopsis thaliana. The sahy9/apum23 mutant seedlings display postgemination developmental arrest and later become bleached under agar plates supplemented with various salt stressors. Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses of the salt-treated sahy9/apum23 and wild-type seedlings revealed differential expression of genes with similar functional categories, primarily including cellular and metabolic processes, and abiotic and biotic stress responses. However, the consistency of gene expression at both transcript and protein levels is low (), suggesting the involvement of posttranscriptional processing in salt response. Furthermore, the altered gene/protein expression mediated by SAHY9/APUM23 in salt sensitivity is involved in several functional groups, particularly in ABA biosynthesis and signaling, abiotic stress response, LEA proteins, and ribosome biogenesis-related genes. Importantly, NCED3, a key gene involved in ABA biosynthesis, and major ABA responsive marker genes, such as RD20 and RD29B, are down-regulated at both transcript and protein levels in sahy9/apum23 under salt stress. Consistently, lower contents of ABA and proline, and expression changes of a subset of LEA proteins also support the nature of sahy9/apum23 showing salt hypersensitivity. Collectively, these data suggest that SAHY9/APUM23-mediated salt response is associated with ABA signaling pathway and its downstream stress responsive or tolerant genes.

Project description:Both barley (Hordeum vulgare) and rice (Oryza sativa) belong to Poaceae family, but differ greatly in salt tolerance. In order to understand molecular mechanisms in the difference of salt tolerance between the two species, the responses of transcriptomic profiles to salt stress were compared between rice (cultivar Nipponbare) and barley (accession XZ26) to reveal how alternative splicing (AS) coordinates with transcriptional regulation in adaptation to salt stress. Physiological study showed that XZ26 had higher salt tolerance than Nipponbare, as reflected by less growth inhibition, lower shoot Na+ concentration and higher K+/Na+ ratio when exposed to salt stress. Transcriptomic analysis showed that XZ26 had higher ROS scavenging ability, less degradation of protein kinases and enhanced anti-oxidation. Moreover, AS genes related to ion transporter genes and transcription factors could enhance and amplify K+/Na+ homeostasis and signal transduction cascades. We proposed that higher salt tolerance of barley accession XZ26 is attributed to its superior K+/Na+ homeostasis, tissue detoxication and less energy consumption. The present results provide insights at transcriptomic levels into reasons why barley has higher salt tolerance than rice.

Project description:Salt stress is one major abiotic stress limiting maize grain yield throughout the world.To better understand maize salt tolerance molecular mechanism, comparative proteomic analysis was conducted on seedling roots of salt-tolerant genotype Jing724 and salt-sensitive genotype D9H under NaCl. Jing724 exhibited significantly higher germination rate and growth parameters (weight/length) than did D9H under salt treatment.We identified 565 differentially regulated proteins (DRP) usingiTRAQ and 89 were specific to Jing724 while 424 were specific to D9H. In salt stressed Jing724, pentose phosphate pathway, glutathione metabolism and nitrogen metabolism were enriched. By pathway enrichment and protein-protein interaction analyses, key DRPs such as glucose-6-phosphate 1-dehydrogenase, NADPH producing dehydrogenase, glutamate synthase and glutamine synthasewere identified.Additionally, salt responsive proteins of Jing724 were indicated to facilitate energy management, maintenance of redox homeostasis, reducing ammonia toxicity, osmotic homeostasis regulation, stress defense, stress adaptation, biotic cross-tolerance and gene transcription regulation. Quantification of multiple metabolic or enzymatic changes including SOD activity, MDA content, relative electrolyte leakage and Proline content were consistent with their predicted changes based on functions of DRPs. DRP analysis was correlated with the mRNA transcripts abundance variation of eight representative DRPs. These results contribute to elucidating molecular networks of salt tolerance.
