Project description:Zinc (Zn) excess negatively impacts primary root growth in Arabidopsis. The effects of Zn excess on root growth processes in the root tip are not well understood.
Transcriptomics, ionomics and metabolomics were used to examine the specific impact of Zn excess on the root tip (RT) compared to the remaining root (RR).
Zn excess exposure resulted in shortened root apical meristem and elongation zone, with differentiation initiating closer to the tip of root. Zn accumulated at a lower concentration in the RT than in RR.

Project description:Zinc is indispensable for the catalytic activity and structural stability of many proteins, and its deficiency can have severe consequences for microbial growth in natural and industrial environments. For example, Zn depletion in wort negatively affects beer fermentation and quality. Several studies have investigated yeast adaptation to low Zn supply, but were all performed in batch cultures, where specific growth rate depends on Zn availability. The transcriptional responses to growth-rate and Zn availability are then intertwined, which obscures result interpretation. In the present study, transcriptional responses of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to Zn availability were investigated at a fixed specific growth rate under Zn limitation and excess in chemostat culture. To investigate the context-dependency of this transcriptional response, yeast was grown under several chemostat regimes resulting in various carbon (glucose), nitrogen (ammonium) and oxygen supplies. A robust set of genes that responded consistently to Zn limitation was identified and enabled the definition of a Zn-specific Zap1 regulon comprising of 26 genes and characterized by a broader ZRE consensus (MHHAACCBYNMRGGT) than so far described. Most surprising was the Zn-dependent regulation of genes involved in storage carbohydrate metabolism. Their concerted down-regulation was physiologically relevant as revealed by a substantial decrease in glycogen and trehalose cellular content under Zn limitation. An unexpectedly large amount of genes were synergistically or antagonistically regulated by oxygen and Zn availability. This combinatorial regulation suggested a more prominent involvement of Zn in mitochondrial biogenesis and function than hitherto identified.

Project description:To identify key miRNAs involved in root meristem formation in M. truncatula, deep sequencing was used to compare the miRNA populations dreived from four tissues. These were; root tip tissue, containing the root apical meristem, elongation zone tissue, root forming callus tissue and non-root forming callus tissue. We identified 83 previously reported miRNAs, 24 new to M. truncatula, in 44 families. For the first time in M. truncatula, members of conserved miRNA families mir165, miR181 and miR397 were found. Bioinformatic analysis identified 38 potential novel miRNAs. Many miRNAs were differentially expressed between tissues, particularly RFC and NRFC.

Project description:The transition between growth in the dark (skotomorphogenesis) and growth in the light (photomorphogenesis) is one of the most critical in plant development. Here the newly identified mutant dez is photomorphogenic in the dark and is strongly enhanced in high Zn. dez displays a shortened hypocotyl, expanded cotyledons, an elongated root and differentiated plastids in the dark contrast to wild-type seedlings that are typically skotomorphogenic, with a long hypocotyl and unexpanded cotyledons protected by an apical hook, and undifferentiated etioplasts We used microarrays to identify transcripts regulated in dez in high-Zn relative to wild-type in high-Zn, and dez in high-Zn relative to dez in control conditions.

Project description:This application is from a NERC-funded consortium (Mark MacNair, Nick Smirnoff, Exeter) and (Brian Ford-Lloyd, John Newbury, Birmingham). Metal tolerance is one of the classic examples of micro-evolution. Despite extensive research the physiological bases of the adaptation in plants are largely unknown. Arabidopsis halleri is a zinc tolerant, zinc accumulating species whereas Arabidopsis petraea is non-accumulating and non-tolerant. The objective of our programme is to identify: a) those key genes that act to determine Zn tolerance and accumulation in Arabidopsis (and which account for the difference in performance of A. halleri and A. petraea grown in the presence of elevated Zn), and b) those _downstream_ genes that are expressed as part of the tolerance or accumulation response. Phase 1: Total of 24 chips: Material ready by May 2003. The results will: a) tell us how effectively material derived from other Arabidopsis species hybridises to the chips, and b) identify genes that are differentially expressed in the two species in the presence and absence of Zn stress (thus providing initial lists of genes that may be responsible for Zn tolerance or accumulation- (but see phase 2). A. halleri exposed to low and high Zn; root and leaf mRNAs extracted: 3 replicates of each: = 12 slides. A. petraea exposed to low and high Zn; root and leaf mRNAs extracted: 3 replicates of each: = 12 slides. Phase 2: Total of 48 chips: Material ready by September 2003. The results will tell us which genes, identified as having appropriate expression patterns, co-segregate with the Zn tolerance or accumulation phenotype and will provide firmer candidate genes for intensive study. Bulks will be produced from F3 progeny (from the halleri x petraea cross) following phentoypic analyses for Zn tolerance and accumulation. A bulk of F3 progeny all exhibiting high Zn tolerance: exposed to low and high Zn; leaf and root mRNAs: 3 replicates: = 12 slides.

Project description:The Zn-hypersensitive EMS mutant ozs3 (overly zinc sensitive) shows some additional pleiotropic effects compared to Col-0 wildtype. Most severe effects are a complete growth arrest at 4°C (seedling stage) and an altered root morphology even under control conditions. To detect the underlying transcriptional differences we analyzed the root transcriptome under control and cold stress (4°C, 24h) conditions.
