Project description:The crop species Solanum lycopersicum establishes a beneficial root- symbiosis with the widespread group of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. The mycorrhiza establishment leads to a modulation of the plant gene expression which is not restricted to the root compartment but spreads at the organism-wide level. To understand the systemic effect of the fungal presence on the tomato fruit, we performed global transcriptome profiling through RNA-Seq analysis on Moneymaker tomato fruits sampled at the turning ripening stage. Gene expression data were obtained from fruits sampled at 55 days after flowering. Fruits were collected from Funneliformis mosseae colonized plants and from control plants which were fertilized in order to avoid responses related to nutrient deficiency.

Project description:To investigate the involvement of arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis in the moleular regulation in foxtail millet roots and the effects of genetic variation on AMS-mediated molecular regulation, we isolated total RNA from the roots of 3 different landraces for comprehensive transcriptomic analysis. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 3 different landraces (Hanevalval, TT8, ICE36) after 6-week mock or arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi treatments.

Project description:The symbiotic interaction of plants with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AM fungi) is ancient and widespread. Plants provide AM fungi with carbon in exchange for nutrients and water, making this interaction a prime target for crop improvement. However, plant-fungal interactions are restricted to a small subset of root cells, precluding the application of most conventional functional genomic techniques to study the molecular bases of these interactions. Here we used single-nucleus and spatial RNA sequencing to explore both M. truncatula and R. irregularis transcriptomes in AM symbiosis at cellular and spatial resolution. Integrated spatially-registered single-cell maps of interacting cells revealed major infected and uninfected plant root cell types. We observed that cortical cells exhibit distinct transcriptome profiles during different stages of colonization by AM fungi, indicating dynamic interplay between both organisms during establishment of the cellular interface enabling successful symbiosis. Our study provides insight into a symbiotic relationship of major agricultural and environmental importance and demonstrates a paradigm combining single-cell and spatial transcriptomics for the analysis of complex organismal interactions.

Project description:Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis that associates roots of most land plants with soilborne fungi (Glomeromycota), is characterized by reciprocal nutritional benefits. Fungal colonization of plant roots induces massive changes in cortical cells where the fungus differentiates an arbuscule, which drives proliferation of the plasma membrane, and the de novo synthesis of the periarbuscular membrane. Despite the recognized importance of membrane proteins in sustaining AM symbiosis, the root microsomal proteome elicited upon mycorrhiza still remains to be explored. In this study, we first examined the qualitative composition of the root membrane proteome of Medicago truncatula after microsome enrichment and subsequent in depth analysis by GeLC-MS/MS. The results obtained highlighted the identification of 1226 root membrane protein candidates whose cellular and functional classifications predispose plastids and protein synthesis as prevalent organelle and function, respectively. Changes at the protein abundance level between the membrane proteomes of mycorrhizal and nonmycorrhizal roots were further monitored by spectral counting, which retrieved a total of 97 proteins that displayed a differential accumulation upon AM symbiosis. Besides the canonical markers of the periarbuscular membrane, new candidates supporting the importance of membrane trafficking events during mycorrhiza establishment/functioning were identified, including flotillin-like proteins.

Project description:To date, little is known about molecular mechanisms by which woody plants engage symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. Here we investigated transcriptome changes in the roots of Poncirus trifoliata (the most common citrus rootstock) that are induced during colonization of an AM fungus Glomus versiforme (Gv). A total of 282 Poncirus genes were differentially expressed in response to Gv colonization, of which 138 could identify homologous genes from the model legume Medicago truncatula that also exhibit similar AM-induced transcriptional changes, while the remaining 144 do not. A high proportion of the AM-responsive Poncirus genes are predicted to be involved in transcription regulation, transport process, cellular organization and protein degradation, implicating these processes in the establishment of AM symbiosis. Promoter-GUS analysis of six AM-induced Poncirus genes [encoding an exocyst subunit (PtrEXO70I), two transcription factors (PtNAC1 and PtPALM1), one chitinase (PtrChit2), one plastid movement associated protein (PtrPMI2) and one lipase (PtrLipase3)] showed that all of them exhibit specific expression in arbuscule-containing root cortical cells, suggesting their potential involvement in establishing AM symbiosis. Notably, down-regulation of the ortholog of PtrExo70I in Medicago by RNAi significantly impaired arbuscule development, indicating that Exo70I is an important host component required for arbuscule development in root cortical cells. This study not only helps identify conserved host genes engaged in AM symbiosis but should also guide future mechanistic studies of potentially Poncirus-specific events during its symbiosis with AM fungi.

Project description:Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis improves water and nutrient uptake by plants and provides them other ecosystem services. Grapevine is one of the major crops in the world. V. vinifera scions are generally grafted onto a variety of rootstocks that confer different levels of resistance against different pests, tolerance to environmental stress, and influence the physiology of the scions. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are involved in the root architecture and in the immune response to soil-borne pathogens. However, the fine-tuned regulation and the transcriptomic plasticity of rootstocks in response to mycorrhization are still unknown. We compared the responses of 10 different grapevine rootstocks to arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis (AMS) formed with Rhizophagus irregularis DAOM197198 using RNA sequencing-based transcriptome profiling. We have highlighted a few shared regulation mechanisms, but also specific rootstock responses to R. irregularis colonization. A set of 353 genes was regulated by AMS in all ten rootstocks. We also compared the expression level of this set of genes to more than 2,000 transcriptome profiles from various grapevine varieties and tissues to identify a class of transcripts related to mycorrhizal associations in these 10 rootstocks. Then, we compared the response of the 351 genes upregulated by mycorrhiza in grapevine to their Medicago truncatula homologs in response to mycorrhizal colonization based on available transcriptomic studies. More than 97% of these homologs were expressed in at least one transcriptome profile, and 64% in all profiles. At the intra-specific level, we described for the first time shared and specific grapevine rootstock genes in response to R. irregularis symbiosis. At the inter-specific level, we defined a shared subset of mycorrhiza-responsive genes
