Project description:We have identified RDO5 as a phosphatase that promotes seed dormancy, most likely independent from ABA and DOG1. To obtain an indication about the genetic and molecular pathways by which RDO5 functions, we performed a transcriptomic comparison between rdo5-1 and its wild-type NIL-DOG1 at different seed stages, using the Arabidopsis Affymetrix AGRONOMICS1 tiling microarrays

Project description:Purpose: The goal of our study is to compare two different ecotypes of Oryza sativa L., PHS-susceptible rice trait and PHS-resistant rice trait under three different maturation stages in rice seed embryo with profile of miRNA-seq. Methods: Oryza sativa. L miRNA profiles of two different ecotypes with 3 different maturation stages of rice seed embryo were generated by NGS, in duplicate, following Illumina NGS workflow. Results: We found the differentially expressed microRNAs between PHS-susceptible rice trait and PHS-resistant rice trait according to the three different seed maturation stages. Target transcripts of differentially expressed microRNAs have been predicted via psRNATarget web server, and a part of those target genes are likely to be regulated by microRNAs, affecting overall responses to heat stress and the regulation of seed dormancy during maturation. Conclusions: Our study represents the analysis of rice seed small RNAs, specifically microRNAs, under two different ecotypes, three different seed maturation stages in rice seed embryo. Our results show that microRNAs are involved in response to heat stress and the regulation of seed dormancy. This study will provide a foundation for understanding dynamics of seed dormancy during the seed development and overcoming pre-harvest sprouting.
Project description:Purpose: The goal of our study is to compare two different ecotypes of Oryza sativa L., PHS-susceptible rice trait and PHS-resistant rice trait under three different maturation stages and two different tissues, embryo and endosperm of rice seeds with profile of RNA-seq. Methods: Oryza sativa. L mRNA profiles of two different ecotypes with 3 different maturation stages and 2 different tissues were generated by NGS, in duplicate, following Illumina NGS workflow. qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays. Results: We found the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between PHS-susceptible rice trait and PHS-resistant rice trait according to the three different seed maturation stages. In DEGs, gene ontology (GO) analysis and Mapman analysis were performed, and we discovered genes related to plant hormones and heat stress, which are not yet reported. These genes were validated through qRT-PCR, and it is likely to be highly related to seed dormancy. Conclusions: Our study represents the analysis of rice seed transcriptomes under two different ecotypes, three different seed maturation stages and two different tissues (Embryo and endosperm). Our results show that seed dormancy is affected and regulated by a plant hormones and heat stress. This study might provide a foundation for understanding dynamics of seed dormancy during the seed development and overcoming pre-harvest sprouting.
