Project description:We demonstrate here that heat stress severely alters the cytoskeletal configuration, cell structure, and global gene expression in male meiocytes and the tapetum layer, in a genotype-dependent manner. ‘Ellvis’, a heat-tolerant winter wheat cultivar, showed high fertility and only scarce structural aberrations upon exposure to high temperature. In addition, heat shock genes and genes involved in the alleviation of reactive oxygen species were significantly upregulated in ‘Ellvis’ and the expression of meiosis-specific and important developmental genes showed high stability in this cultivar. In the heat-sensitive Mv 17-09, however, genes participating in cytoskeletal fiber nucleation, the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) genes, and tapetum-specific developmental regulators were all downregulated. These alterations may be related to the decreased cytoskeleton content, frequent micronuclei formation, and the erroneous persistence of the tapetum layer observed in the sensitive genotype.

Project description:The significance of heat stress in agriculture is ever-increasing with the progress of global climate changes. Due to a negative effect on the yield of staple crops, including wheat, the impairment of plant reproductive development triggered by high ambient temperature became a restraint in food production. Although the heat sensitivity of male meiosis and the following gamete development in wheat has long been recognized, a detailed structural characterization combined with a comprehensive gene expression analysis has not been done about this phenomenon. We demonstrate here that heat stress severely alters the cytoskeletal configuration, triggers the failure of meiotic division in wheat. Moreover, it changes the expression of genes related to gamete development in male meiocytes and the tapetum layer in a genotype-dependent manner. 'Ellvis', a heat-tolerant winter wheat cultivar, showed high spikelet fertility rate and only scarce structural aberrations upon exposure to high temperature. In addition, heat shock genes and genes involved in scavenging reactive oxygen species were significantly upregulated in 'Ellvis', and the expression of meiosis-specific and major developmental genes showed high stability in this cultivar. In the heat-sensitive 'Mv 17-09', however, genes participating in cytoskeletal fiber nucleation, the spindle assembly checkpoint genes, and tapetum-specific developmental regulators were downregulated. These alterations may be related to the decreased cytoskeleton content, frequent micronuclei formation, and the erroneous persistence of the tapetum layer observed in the sensitive genotype. Our results suggest that understanding the heat-sensitive regulation of these gene functions would be an essential contribution to the development of new, heat-tolerant cultivars.

Project description:Gametes are produced via meiosis, a specialized cell division associated with frequent errors which cause birth defects and infertility. Uniquely in meiosis I, homologous chromosomes segregate to opposite poles, usually requiring their linkage by chiasmata, the products of crossover recombination1. The spindle checkpoint delays cell cycle progression until all chromosomes are properly attached to microtubules2 but the steps leading to the capture and alignment of chromosomes on the meiosis I spindle remain poorly understood. In budding yeast meiosis I, Mad2 and Mad3BUBR1 are equally important for spindle checkpoint delay, but biorientation of homologs on the meiosis I spindle requires Mad2, but not Mad3BUBR1 3,4. Here we show that Mad3BUBR1 promotes accurate meiosis I homolog segregation outside its canonical checkpoint role, independently of Mad2. We find that Mad3BUBR1 associates with the TOGL1 domain of Stu1CLASP, a conserved plus-end microtubule protein which is important for chromosome capture onto the spindle. Homologous chromosome pairs that are proficient in crossover formation, but which fail to biorient, rely on Mad3BUBR1-Stu1CLASP to ensure their efficient attachment to microtubules and segregation during meiosis I. Furthermore, we show that Mad3BUBR1-Stu1CLASP are essential to rescue the segregation of mini-chromosomes lacking crossovers. Our findings define a new pathway ensuring microtubule-dependent chromosome capture and demonstrate that spindle checkpoint proteins safeguard the fidelity of chromosome segregation both by actively promoting chromosome alignment and delaying cell cycle progression until this has occurred.

Project description:Newly synthetic autotetraploid rice generally shows lower pollen fertility and seed setting rate in comparison to diploid rice, and this can hinder its own domestication and breeding. In this study, cytological analysis was used to demonstrate the imbalanced separation of homologous chromosomes occurred at meiosis I during the pollen mother cell development, and the early degeneration of tapetum cells in autotetraploid rice. We identified a total of 941 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in anthers, including 489 up-regulated and 452 down-regulated proteins. KOG analysis showed that the identified DEPs were related to post-translational modifications, such as protein ubiquitination. These modifications are related to chromatin remodeling and homologous recombination abnormalities during meiosis. The key proteins related to the pentose phosphate pathway (BGIOSGA016558, BGIOSGA022166, BGIOSGA028743) are significantly down-regulated, which can affect the failure of autotetraploid rice to provide the energy needed for cell development after polyploidization, and ultimately lead to the early degradation of the tapetum. Proteins (BGIOSGA017346and BGIOSGA027368) related to the degradation of glutenin are up-regulated, indicating that the decomposition of glutenin can lead to the early degradation of tapetum. These cytological and molecular evidences will help to promote our understanding of the differences in anther development between diploid and autotetraploid rice during meiosis.

Project description:Katanin microtubule severing enzymes are potent M-phase regulators across eukaryotes. The requirement of katanin enzymatic A-subunits in male mammalian meiosis, however, remains untested. Here, using multiple single and double gene knockout mice, we reveal katanin A-subunits are essential for male meiosis, and in doing so demonstrate functional compensation exists among mammalian katanin A-subunit paralogs. We show KATNA1 and KATNAL1 collectively regulate the male meiotic spindle, germ cell microtubule bulk, in addition to diverse spermatid remodelling events, including Golgi organisation, pro-acrosomal vesicle trafficking and manchette formation. We also define KATNAL1-specific roles in sperm flagella development, manchette regulation, and sperm-epithelial disengagement. Finally, using immunoprecipitation-mass spectrometry approaches we define the KATNA1, KATNAL1, and KATNB1 mammalian testis interactome, which includes a network of cytoskeletal and vesicle trafficking proteins. Collectively, we reveal the presence of multiple katanin A-subunit paralogs in mammalian spermatogenesis allows for both ‘customized cutting’ via neofunctionalization and protective buffering via gene redundancy.

Project description:Meiosis is a specialized cell division that generates gametes, such as eggs and sperm. Errors in meiosis result in miscarriages and are the leading cause of birth defects, however the molecular origins of these defects remain unknown. Studies in model organisms are beginning to identify the genes and pathways important for meiosis, but the parts list is still poorly defined. Here we present a comprehensive catalogue of genes required for meiosis in the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Our genome-wide functional screen surveyed all non-essential genes for roles in chromosome segregation and spore formation. Novel genes required at distinct stages of the meiotic chromosome segregation and differentiation programme were identified. Preliminary characterization implicated three of these genes in centrosome/spindle pole body function, centromere and cohesion function. Our findings represent a near-complete parts list of genes required for meiosis in fission yeast, providing a valuable resource to advance our molecular understanding of meiosis.

Project description:Our understanding of the mechanisms that govern the cellular process of meiosis is limited in higher plants with polyploid genomes. Bread wheat is an allohexaploid that behaves as a diploid during meiosis. Chromosome pairing is restricted to homologous chromosomes despite the presence of homoeologues in the nucleus. The importance of wheat as a crop and the extensive use of wild wheat relatives in breeding programs has prompted many years of cytogenetic and genetic research to develop an understanding of the control of chromosome pairing and recombination. The rapid advance of biochemical and molecular information on meiosis in model organisms such as yeast provides new opportunities to investigate the molecular basis of chromosome pairing control in wheat. However, building the link between the model and wheat requires points of data contact. We report here a large-scale transcriptomics study using the Affymetrix wheat GeneChip® aimed at providing this link between wheat and model systems and at identifying early meiotic genes. Analysis of the microarray data identified 1,350 transcripts temporally-regulated during the early stages of meiosis. Expression profiles with annotated transcript functions including chromatin condensation, synaptonemal complex formation,recombination and fertility were identified. From the 1,350 transcripts, 30 displayed at least an eight-fold expression change between and including pre-meiosis and telophase II, with more than 50% of these having no similarities to known sequences in NCBI and TIGR databases. This resource is now available to support research into the molecular basis of pairing and recombination control in the complex polyploid, wheat. Experiment Overall Design: The seven stages collected were pre-meiosis (PM), leptotene to pachytene (LP), diplotene to anaphase I (DA), telophase I to telophase II (TT), tetrads (T), immature pollen (IP) and mature anthers (MAN). Immediately after determining the stage, the remaining two anthers from the floret were placed into liquid nitrogen. After collecting at least 25 staged anthers for each time point from several biological samples, anthers from the respective stages were pooled. Leaf material used in this study was collected from glasshouse-grown plants (six weeks) and total RNA isolated using Trizol® (Gibco BRL, Australia) according to the manufacturerâs protocol. Experiment Overall Design: Twenty micrograms of aRNA of from each of the seven samples were fragmented for hybridization to each microarray. In total three technical replicates were conducted for each of the seven stages examined. Affymetrix GeneChip® Wheat Genome Arrays were used for all samples. The arrays were hybridized and processed according to the manufacturerâs specifications. Experiment Overall Design: Normalization of the microarray data was conducted using RMA. The software package Acuity 4 (Molecular Devices, CA, USA) was then used to analyze the microarray data.

Project description:This study was initiated with the objective of identifying the anther/tapetum specific promoters from cotton floral buds. Cotton is an important commercial crop. Hybrid cotton varieties are developed to obtain improved yield and fiber quality. Most of the hybrid seed production in cotton is carried out by hand emasculation, which requires large amount of manpower, resulting in high cost of hybrid seed. We are developing barnase-barstar based male sterility system, which would be a better alternative for hybrid development. The tapetum specific promoters are main requirement for such a system. The study was thus carried out to identify genes expressed in the anthers. Cotton bud sizes were correlated with tapetum development. RNA was isolated from following tissues: • Anther tissues from buds at pre-meiotic stage of development (Tapetum absent) • Buds without anther tissues at pre-meiotic stage of development • Anther tissues from buds during meiosis (Tapetum present) • Buds without anther tissues during meiosis • Anther tissues from buds at post-meiotic stage of development (Tapetum degenerated) • Buds without anther tissues at post-meiotic stage of development • Leaf tissues • Seedling 5 days after germination Biotin labeled cRNA was hybridized on Affymertix cotton Genechip Genome array following Affymetrix protocols. Three biological replicates were maintained.
