Project description:We used two wheat genotypes, the susceptible wheat cultivar ‘8866 ’(S) and its near isogenic line with single powdery mildew resistance gene ‘pm30’ (R), to investigate gene expression changes in response to powdery mildew infection by using Wheat Genome Array
Project description:We used two wheat genotypes, the susceptible wheat cultivar ‘8866 ’(S) and its near isogenic line with single powdery mildew resistance gene ‘pm30’ (R), to investigate gene expression changes in response to powdery mildew infection by using Wheat Genome Array wheat young leveas of near isogenic lines before or 12 hours after powdery mildew infection were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.The leaf samples were harvested from three independent biological replicates, and the leaves without inoculation were regarded as control.
Project description:To investigate the candidate genes governing Pm5.1 and their effects on powdery resistance, the RNA-sequencing based transcriptomes of the powdery mildew resistant segment substitution line SSL508-28 and recurrent parent D8 were compared 48 h after inoculation with the PM pathogen.
Project description:We generated ChIP-Seq data for two barley accessions with different resistance to powdery mildew. These data allowed us to explore the roles of epigenetic modifications in resistance response to powdery mildew at the first time. Our study opens the way for establishing the relationship between epigenetics and disease response in barley, and should inform future functional characterization of the regarding molecular basis. These data should also help researchers to exploit disease response-related genes for breeding application.
Project description:Purpose: The powdery mildew fungus, Blumeria graminis, is an obligate biotrophic pathogen of cereals and has significant impact on food security (Dean et al., 2012. Molecular Plant Pathology 13 (4): 414-430. DOI: 10.1111/j.1364-3703.2011.00783.x). Blumeria graminis f. sp. hordei (Bgh) is the causal agent of powdery mildew on barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). We sought to identify small RNAs (sRNAs) from both barley and Bgh that regulate gene expression both within species and cross-kingdom.
Project description:We performed RNA-sequencing of Bgh-infected barley leaves at two different time-points after infection to examine gene expression in the barley powdery mildew isolate DH14 during plant pathogenesis.
Project description:To test whether non-coding RNAs play roles in regulating response to powdery mildew infection and heat stress in wheat, by using Solexa high-throughput sequencing and computational analysis and experimental approach we cloned the small RNAs and identified 125 putative long npcRNAs from wheat leaves infected by preponderant physiological strain Erysiphe graminis f. sp. tritici (Egt) or by heat stress treatment. Among long non-coding RNAs, some were precursors of small RNAs such as microRNAs and siRNAs, two long npcRNAs were identified as signal recognition particle (SRP) 7S RNA variants, and three were characterized as U3 snoRNAs. Wheat long npcRNAs showed tissue dependent expression patterns and were responsive to powdery mildew infection and heat stress.
Project description:We performed RNA-sequencing of Golovinomyces orontii-infected Arabidopsis leaves of wild type, the double or triple mutants of AtMLKLs to examine the role of AtMLKLs in response to the powdery mildew fungus.
Project description:Purpose: The powdery mildew fungus, Blumeria graminis, is an obligate biotrophic pathogen of cereals and has significant impact on food security (Dean et al., 2012). B. graminis f. sp. hordei (Bgh) is the causal agent of powdery mildew on barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). We sought to address the temporal regulation of membrane trafficking associated gene expression in barley-powdery mildew interactions. We created an isogenic panel of immune signaling mutants to address three main questions: (i) which Blumeria secreted proteins are differentially regulated in response to different compromised genotypes, (ii) which barley membrane trafficking genes are altered in response to pathogen attack, and (iii) how are these genes interacting across genotypes and infection stages.
