Project description:transcriptome changes in pea leaves with sulfur deficency/sufficiency during reproductive phase.-Characterization of transcriptome changes in leaves of wild-type and PsSultr4 mutant lines (for a sulfur transporter) subjected or not to sulfur deficiency during the reproductive phase 4plex_pea_2014_01 - transcriptome changes in pea leaves with sulfur deficency/sufficiency during reproductive phase. - Role of sulfur and of the sulfate store in leaf metabolism. - Comparison of: 1- The leaf transcriptome of pea subjected or not to sulfur deficiency during the reproductive phase (S+ versus S –) 2- The leaf transcriptome of wild-type and mutant lines for a sulfur transporter (two TILLING alleles) grown under sulfur sufficient conditions : WT1/Mut1 S+ et WT2/Mut2 S+ 3- The leaf transcriptome of wild-type and mutant lines for a sulfur transporter (two TILLING alleles) grown under sulfur deficient conditions : WT1/Mut1 S+ et WT2/Mut2 S+
Project description:12plex_pea_2013_02 - 12plex_pea_2013_02_g - What is the effect of a moderate water stress on seed filling (reserve accumulation) and nitrogen remobilisation in pea (Pisum sativum) - Pea plants (genotype Cameor) were subjected to a moderate water stress at the beggining of the seed filling period (12 Days After Pollination) of the second flowering node for a period of 8 days. Samples were collected from Well Watered (WW) plants at the beginning of the stress imposition (point A, T=0), and from Water-Stressed (WS) and WW control plants at the end of the drought period (point B, T=+8). Samples named SEED consisted of seeds from the pod of the second flowering node (seed-WW-A, seed-WW-B and Seed-WS-B). Samples named LEAF consisted of the leaves and stem sections from the two vegetative nodes below the first flowering node (leaf-WW-A, Leaf-WW-B and Leaf-WS-B). Each sample consited of a pool of 3 individual plants and 4 repetitions per condition were carried out.

Project description:We performed a transcriptome analysis of interior spruce (Picea glauca x engelmannii) bark response to weevil (Pissodes strobi) feeding using 21.8K spruce microarray (that contains 21.8 thousand unique transcripts). This microarray study revealed a large rearrangement of the interior spruce bark transcriptome in response to weevil feeding involving differential expression of close to 20% of the studied transcriptome.
Project description:Ascochyta blight causes severe losses in field pea production and the search for resistance traits towards the causal agent Didymella pinodes is of particular importance to farmers. Various microsymbionts are reported to shape the plants´ immune response. However, regardless their contribution to resistance, they are hardly included in experimental designs. In this project, the bi-directional effect of the symbionts´ (rhizobia, mycorrhiza) and the leaf proteome/metabolome of two field pea cultivars with varying resistance levels towards D. pinodes is delineated.
Project description:The legume pest Sitona callosus poses a significant threat to alfalfa growth. Due to its unique life cycle, Beauveria bassiana has emerged as an effective fungus for controlling S. callosus . We conducted a comprehensive analysis of the transcriptome and metabolome of S. callosus infected by B. bassiana. Differential expression of antifungal genes, including heat shock genes, cytochrome P450 (CYP450) genes, cathepsin proteases, and C-type lectin were identified in S. callosus. Pathway analysis revealed associations between immune genes and metabolites involved in autophagy-animal, glucagon signaling pathway, and glycerophospholipid metabolism. These findings provide valuable insights for enhancing the control efficacy of Beauveria bassiana on Sitona callosus.
