Project description:Bamboo represents the only major lineage of grasses that is native to forests and is one of the most important non-timber forest products in the world. Moso bamboo is a large woody bamboo that has ecological, economic and cultural value in Asia and accounts for ~70% of the total bamboo growth area (Peng et al., 2013). In the aspect of epigenetics of Moso bamboo,the total genomic DNA methylation rates in Moso bamboo at different chronological ages were significantly different (Yuan et al., 2014). Those show that the flowering of Moso bamboo are closely related to epigenetic modification. However, DNA methylation in single base resolution has never been reported in moso bamboo. In this study, leaves from three-week bamboo, one-year bamboo, flower in next year bamboo, flowering bamboo and Flower florets was used for bisulfite sequencing (BS-seq), and RNA-Seq. Genome-wide methylation profile and gene expression analysis were constructed to reveal the factors to regualte the phase transition from vegetative to reproductive growth in moso bamboo.

Project description:The small RNA libraries from Moso bamboo (Phyllostachy heterocycla) roots and leaves were constructed by using high definition adapters . The small RNA profiles were analyzed. A collection of micro RNAs with similarity to the micro RNA entries in mirbase were discovered. The putative genomic loci of the micro RNAs were identified. Analysis of small RNA profiles from the root and leaf tissues of young Moso Bamboo seedlings
Project description:We adopted the high-throughput sequencing technology and compared the transcriptomes of Moso bamboo rhizome buds in germination stage and late development stage. We found that the development of Moso bamboo rhizome lateral buds was coordinated by multiple pathways, including meristem development, sugar metabolism and phytohormone signaling. Phytohormones have fundamental impacts on the plant development. We found the evidence of several major hormones participating in the development of Moso bamboo rhizome lateral bud. Furthermore, we showed direct evidence that Gibberellic Acids (GA) signaling participated in the Moso bamboo stem elongation.
Project description:Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis (Carrière) J. Houz.), ) is one of the most importantessential economic bamboo species in China. However, the woods quality and yield of bamboo shoots were significantly threatened by diverse environmental conditions. significantly threaten the quality of wood and yield of bamboo shoots. In this study, to explore the molecular mechanism of abiotic stress response, we report the RNA-seq analyses of mosoMoso bamboo treated with drought, salt, SA and ABA at three -time courses. A total of 224.4 Gb clean data were generate in to explore the molecular mechanism of the abiotic stress response. The full-length transcriptome sequencing of these four treatments generated a total of 224.4 Gb data after quality trimming, and approximately 5.83Gban average of 6.615 Gb clean data were per sample was generated in per sample. The comparative analyses of the generated transcriptome data in this study will provide a valuable resource for identifying regulatory genes and potential pathways involved in various abiotic stresses in mosoMoso bamboo.
Project description:Bamboo is a large Poaceae perennial with 1,642 species worldwide. We reported single-cell transcriptomes of 14,279 filtered single cells derived from the basal root tips of Moso bamboo.
Project description:Moso bamboo is a fast-growing bamboo species with high economic, social and cultural value. The method of transplanting moso bamboo seedlings for afforestation has become a more economical and effective method. The effect of light on the growth of plant seedlings is mainly reflected in the regulation of different light quality on the growth and development of seedlings, including light morphogenesis, photosynthesis and secondary metabolites. Therefore, studying the effects of specific wavelength light on the physiology and proteome of moso bamboo seedlings will play an important role in growing seedlings and seed cultivation of moso bamboo. Here, moso bamboo seeds were germinated in the dark and then were transferred to the blue and red-light conditions. After 14 days, we observed the effects of different light treatments on the growth and development of seedlings, and then compared and analyzed their proteome.
