Project description:The total RNA were extracted from tissues of roots from several plants of Panax notoginseng under CK and Cd stress treatment by using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The purified PCR product was sequenced using Illumina Genome Analyzer II. The qualified reads were used to study of Panax notoginseng transcriptome under CK and Cd stress treatment.
Project description:Methods: Panax notoginseng was used to treat MCAO model rats, and the differentially expressed genes between Panax notoginseng group and model group were identified by RNA SEQ, and the possible mechanism of Panax notoginseng in regulating ischemic stroke was analyzed
Project description:Nitrogen is one of the essential elements for plant growth. NH4+ and NO3- are two major forms of absorbing element N for higher plants. In this study we found that the growth of Panax notoginseng is inhibited when only adding ammonium nitrogen fertilizer, and adding nitrate fertilizer can alleviate the toxicity caused by ammonium. We use RNA-seq to identify genes that are related to the alleviated phenotypes after introducing NO3- to Panax notoginseng roots under NH4+ stresses. Twelve RNA-seq profiles in four sample groups, i.e., control, samples treated with NH4+, samples treated with NO3- only, and treated with both NH4+ and NO3- were obtained and analyzed to identify deregulated genes in samples with different treatments. ACLA-3 gene is downregulated in NH4+ treated samples, but is upregulated in samples treated with NO3- and with both NH4+ and NO3-, which is further validated in another set of samples using qRT-PCR. Our results suggest that unbalanced metabolism of nitrogen and nitrogen is the main cause of ammonium poisoning in roots of Panax notoginseng, and NO3- may significantly upregulate the activity of ACLA-3 which subsequently enhances the citrate cycle and many other metabolic pathways in Panax notoginseng root. These potentially increase the integrity of the Panax notoginseng roots. Our results suggest that introducing NO3- fertilizer is an effective means to prevent the occurrence of toxic ammonium in Panax notoginseng root.
Project description:Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer is a precious Chinese herbal medicine belonging to the Araliaceae family. Because ginseng is extremely taboo, it seriously restricts the sustainable development of the ginseng industry. The allelopathic effect of triterpenoid saponins is one of the important incentives for continuous cropping disorders. However, there are few studies on the mechanism of allelopathic autotoxicity of triterpenoid ginsenosides. Therefore, this study took ginseng hairy roots as the research object, exogenously added ginsenoside Ro to regulate the growth of hairy roots, and measured the changes in its physiological and saponin content. It was found that ginseng hairy roots grew significantly under Ro-0.5 mg/L stress. Inhibition, the specificity of root tip cell injury was obvious, promoted the accumulation of endogenous hormones IAA and SA, and inhibited the accumulation of ABA and JA. The accumulation of ginsenosides was significantly inhibited (except Rg3) under Ro-0.5 mg/L stress. The mRNA analysis of the Ro-0.5 mg/L group and CK group showed that the differentially expressed genes were mostly concentrated in the hormone signal transduction pathway. The genes ARF7 and EFM were up-regulated, and XTH23 and ZOX1 were down-regulated, which can be used as important candidates for hormone-responsive continuous cropping disorders. Gene. 74 differentially expressed miRNAs were identified based on miRNA sequencing, of which 22 were up-regulated and 52 were down-regulated. The target genes of ptc-miR156k_L+1, mtr-miR156b-5p, gma-miR156a_R+1, and mtr-miR156e were all TRINITY_DN14567_c0_g4, TRINITY_DN14567_c0_g4 is a gene in the plant hormone signal transduction pathway, and the four miRNAs are all negatively correlated with mRNA, indicating that ptc-miR156k_L+1, mtr-miR156b-5p, gma-miR156a_R+1, and mtr-miR156e are very likely involved in ginseng Response to continuous cropping disorders and regulation of ginsenoside synthesis. Our findings will provide a useful platform for unraveling the continuous cropping barrier of ginseng and new insights into the genetic engineering of plant stress responses.
Project description:Recent results demonstrated that either non-coding or coding genes generate phased secondary small interfering RNAs (phasiRNAs) guided by specific miRNAs. Till now, there is no studies for phasiRNAs in Panax notoginseng (Burk.) F.H. Chen (P. notoginseng), an important traditional Chinese herbal medicinal plant species. Here we performed a genome-wide discovery of phasiRNAs and its host PHAS loci in P. notoginseng by analyzing small RNA sequencing profiles. Degradome sequencing profile was used to identify the trigger miRNAs of these phasiRNAs and potential targets of phasiRNAs. We also used RLM 5'-RACE to validate some of the identified phasiRNA targets. After analyzing 24 small RNA sequencing profiles of P. notoginseng, 204 and 90 PHAS loci that encoded 21 and 24 nucleotide (nt) phasiRNAs were identified. Furthermore, we found that phasiRNAs produced from some pentatricopeptide repeat-contain (PPR) genes target another layer of PPR genes as validated by both the degradome sequencing profile and RLM 5'-RACE analysis. We also find that miR171 with 21 nt triggers the 21 nt phasiRNAs from its conserved targets. We validated that some phasiRNAs generated from PPRs are functional by targeting other PPRs in trans. These results provide the first set of PHAS loci and phasiRNAs in P. notoginseng, and enhance our understanding of PHAS in plants.
Project description:We used wheat as rotational crop to assess the influence of continuous cropping on microbiome in Pinellia ternata rhizosphere and the remediation of rotational cropping to the impacted microbiota. Illumina high-throughput sequencing technology was utilized for this method to explore the rhizosphere microbial structure and diversity based on continuous and rotational cropping.
