Project description:The purpose of this study was to make a single comparison between Cqf genes expressed during the vegetative stages of infection on the telial host (oak leaf) versus the aecial host (pine stem). A large proportion of genes were expressed in both hosts and significantly differentially expressed genes were enriched for candidate fungal effectors (small secreted proteins). These results suggest that the Cqf rust fungus uses a largely common set of genes to create two very different infection phenotypes. This study was based on hybridizations to custom microarrays containing features representing 8692 gene models from a Cqf genome sequencing project midpoint assembly. Two Agilent 4 X 44K microarray slides were populated with 60-mer probes (1 to 5 per transcript), designed using AgilentM-bM-^@M-^Ys web-based eArray software. Labeled target cRNA (complementary RNA) was generated using AgilentM-bM-^@M-^Ys Low Input Quick Amp Labeling Kit, such that oak and pine samples were labeled with either cy3 or cy5 an equal number of times across the experiment. Each microarray was hybridized with labeled cRNA target derived from a single oak sample and labeled cRNA target derived from a single pine sample. There were a total of eight oak sample replications and eight pine sample replications. Target hybridization and scanning were performed by the University of FloridaM-bM-^@M-^Ys Interdisciplinary Center for Biotechnology Research using standard procedures and an Agilent G250B Scanner.

Transcriptomic analysis of Phanerochaete chrysosporium mycelium in presence of oak acetonic extractives

Project description:The transcriptome of Phanerochaete chrysosporium control mycelium was compared to the transcriptome of mycelium grown on oak acetonic extractives containing medium. The array probes were designed from gene models taken from the Joint Genome Institute (JGI, Department of Energy) Phanerochaete chrysosporium genome sequence version 1. The aim of this study was to determine gene expression changes in Phanerochaete chrysosporium grown on oak extract with a special focus on detoxification systems.

Extraction and high-throughput sequencing of oak heartwood DNA: assessing the feasibility of genome-wide DNA methylation profiling

Project description:Tree ring features are affected by environmental factors and therefore are the basis for dendrochronological studies to reconstruct past environmental conditions. Oak wood often provides the data for these studies because of the durability particularly of oak heartwood and, hence the availability of samples spanning long time periods of the distant past. Wood formation is regulated in part by epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation. Studies in the methylation state of DNA preserved in oak heartwood thus could identify epigenetic tree ring features informing on past environmental conditions. We investigated the feasibility of such studies using heartwood samples core-drilled from the trunks of standing oak trees spanning the AD 1776-2014. Heartwood contains little DNA, and large amounts of phenolic compounds known to hinder the preparation of high-throughput sequencing libraries. We sequenced whole-genome and DNA methylome libraries for oak heartwood up to 100 and 50 years of age, respectively. However, only 56 genomic regions with sufficient coverage for quantitative methylation analysis were identified, suggesting that the high-throughput sequencing of DNA will be in principal feasible for wood formed <100 years ago is impeded by the reduction in library complexity caused by the bisulfite treatment used to generate the oak methylome.
