Project description:Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) is one of the most important legume forage species in temperate livestock agriculture. Tetraploid red clover cultivars are generally producing less seed than diploid cultivars. Improving the seed setting potential of tetraploid cultivars is necessary in order to utilize the high forage quality and environmentally sustainable nitrogen fixation of red clover. Two genotypes, one from cv.Tripo with weak seed setting and one from cv.Lasang with strong seed setting, were selected based on data from field experiments for transcriptome analysis of developing flower buds. De novo and reference based analyses of transcriptome assemblies were conducted to study the global transcriptome changes from early to late developmental stages of flower development of the two contrasting red clover genotypes. Transcript profiles, gene ontology enrichment and KEGG pathway analysis indicate that genes related to flower development, pollen pistil interactions, photosynthesis and embryo development are differentially expressed between the Tripo and Lasang genotypes. A significant number of genes related to pollination was overrepresented in Lasang, which might be a reason for its good seed setting ability. The candidate genes detected in this study might be used to develop molecular tools for breeding tetraploid red clover varieties with improved seed yield potentials.

Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) extract inhibits ferroptotic cell death by modulating cellular iron homeostasis

Project description:To investigate the mechanisms related to anti-ferroptotic effects of red clover extract, we performed differentially expressed genes analysis using data obtained from the RNA-seq of system xCT knockout mouse embryonic fibroblast cells.
