Project description:Rhizobium leguminosarum bv viciae strain 3841 was inoculated onto pea (Pisum sativum) seeds and nodules were harvested at 28 d. The gene expression was compared to free-living bacteria grown on succinate ammonia AMS medium.
Project description:The secretion of metabolites by plant roots is a key determinant of microbial growth and colonisation. We have used Pisum sativum and its natural symbiont Rhizobium leguminosarum (it can form N2 fixing nodules on pea roots) to study the natural metabolites secreted by roots. To do this root secretion was harvested from pea plants grown under sterile conditions. This root exudate was then concentrated and used as a sole carbon and nitrogen source for growth of the bacteria in the laboratory. These bacteria were harvested in mid-exponential growth and RNA extracted for microarray analysis. As control cultures the bacteria were grown on 30 mM pyruvate as a carbon source and 10 mM ammonium chloride as a nitrogen source and RNA extracted. Two colour microarrays were performed using root exudate cultures versus pyruvate ammonia grown cultures. This was done in biological triplicate.
Project description:Plants of the resistant Pisum sativum subsp. syriacum accession P665 and the susceptible pea cultivar Messire were inoculated with M. pinodes.The experiment was conducted in three replicates. 16, 24 and 48 hours after inoculation RNA was isolated from leaves of infected plants and transcribed into cDNA. For each time point and replicate, Cy-labelled cDNA samples from resistant and susceptible plants were mixed and hybridized to Mt16kOLI1Plus microarray
Project description:This study aims to compare the potential of standard RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) and 3’ massive analysis of c-DNA ends (MACE) RNA-sequencing for the analysis of fresh tissue and describes transcriptome profiling of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) archival human samples by MACE.
Project description:Bioinformatic prediction, deep sequencing of microRNA and expression analysis during phenotypic plasticity in the pea aphid acyrthosiphon pisum We developed high throughput Solexa sequencing and bioinformatic analyses of the genome of the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum in order to identify the first miRNAs from a hemipteran insect. By combining these methods we identified 155 miRNAs including 56 conserved and 99 new miRNAs. Moreover, we investigated the regulation of these miRNAs in different alternative morphs of the pea aphid by analysing the expression of miRNAs across the switch of reproduction mode.
Project description:Pea (Pisum. sativum L.) is a traditional and important edible legume that can be sorted into grain pea and vegetable pea according to their harvested maturely or not. Vegetable pea by eating the fresh seed is becoming more and more popular in recent years. These two type peas display huge variations of the taste and nutrition, but how seed development and nutrition accumulation of grain pea and vegetable pea and their differences at the molecular level remains poorly understood. To understand the genes and gene networks regulate seed development in grain pea and vegetable pea, high throughput RNA-Seq and bioinformatics analysis were used to compare the transcriptomes of vegetable pea and grain pea developing seed. RNA-Seq generated 18.7 G raw data, which was then de novo assembled into 77,273 unigenes with a mean length of 930 bp. Functional annotation of the unigenes was carried out using the nr, Swiss-Prot, COG, GO and KEGG databases. There were 459 and 801 genes showing differentially expressed between vegetable pea and grain pea at early and late seed maturation phases, respectively. Sugar and starch metabolism related genes were dramatically activated during pea seed development. The up-regulated of starch biosynthesis genes could explain the increment of starch content in grain pea then vegetable pea; while up-regulation of sugar metabolism related genes in vegetable pea then grain pea should participate in sugar accumulation and associated with the increase in sweetness of vegetable pea then grain pea. Furthermore, transcription factors were implicated in the seed development regulation in grain pea and vegetable pea. Thus, our results constitute a foundation in support of future efforts for understanding the underlying mechanism that control pea seed development and also serve as a valuable resource for improved pea breeding.
