Project description:The booting stage of rice shows the most sensitivity to cold stress, and low-temperature stress causes irreversible pollen sterility. We performed transcriptome analysis using RNA-seq to investigate the response of rice anthers to low-temperature stress. In this RNA-seq analysis, to validate the results of transcriptome analysis of anthers from 13 rice lines using microarrays, four cultivars were selected for analysis from the 13 tested for microarrays.
Project description:The genome-wide transcriptome analyses using microarray probes containing genes and repeat sequences have been performed to examine response to the low-temperature in rice. We have particularly focused on the rice anther at the booting stage, since the low-temperature at this stage resulted in pollen abortion. The results demonstrated that the low-temperature stress caused genome-wide changes of transcriptional activities not only in genes, but also in repeat sequences of the rice anther. The degrees of the temperature responsive changes varied among the rice strains.
Project description:To stabilize crop yield under low temperature stress conditions, it is important to improve stress tolerance in crops. Upon exposure to low temperature stress, many genes are induced and their products are thought to function as cellular protectants of stress-induced damages Therefore, responses of global gene expression profiles to cold stress was analyzed at the booting stage using the 60K Rice Whole Genome Microarray.

Project description:Sweetpotato under low temperature stress
Project description:As a species mostly planted in tropical and subtropical regions, rice is sensitive to chilling temperature, especially at reproductive stage. However, the effect of low temperature on seed development has not been well characterized. The transcriptome of two rice cultivars Zhonghua11 and Hanfeng were analyzed to characterize the gene regulatory networks of rice seed during low temperature treatment.
Project description:Here, we investigated the function of the plant-specific SR protein RS33 in pre-mRNA splicing regulation and abiotic stress responses in rice. The loss-of-function mutant, rs33, showed increased sensitivity to salt and low-temperature stress. Genome-wide analyses of gene expression and splicing in seedlings subjected to these stresses identified multiple splice isoforms from stress-responsive genes dependent on RS33. The number of RS33-regulated genes is much higher under low-temperature stress as compared to salt stress. Our results suggest that this plant-specific splicing factor plays crucial and distinct roles during plant adaptation to abiotic stresses.
Project description:Purpose: Rice (Oryza sativa) ssp. indica is the most cultivated species in the South of Brazil. However, these plants face low temperature stress from September to November, which is the period of early sowing, affecting plant development during the initial stages of growth, and reducing rice productivity. This study aimed to characterize the roots of two rice genotypes (CT, cold-tolerant; and CS, cold-sensitive) in response to low temperature stress during the early vegetative stage. Results: RNAseq analysis revealed that contrasting genotypes present a completely different molecular response to cold stress. The number of over-represented functional categories was lower in CT than CS under cold condition, suggesting that CS genotype is more impacted by low temperature stress than CT. Several genes that might contribute to rice cold tolerance, including the ones related with cell wall remodeling (glycosyl hydrolase, cellulose synthase, glycosyl transferase, wall-associated kinase, glycine-rich cell wall structural protein), cytoskeleton and growth (microtubule-associated protein 70, kinesin motor domain containing protein, growth regulating factor protein, auxin-independent growth promoter protein, RopGEF7), signaling (receptor-like protein kinase, Rapid Alkalinization Factor 21)), antioxidant system (glutathione peroxidase, metallothionein), lipid metabolism (fatty acid desaturase and phosphatidylinositol transfer protein), and stress response (Tetratricopeptide Repeat-Containing Protein). On the other hand, high expression of the genes SRC2 (defense), root architecture associated 1 (growth), ACC oxidase, ethylene-responsive transcription factor, and cytokinin-O-glucosyltransferase 2 (hormone-related) seems to be related with cold sensibility. Even though these two genotypes have a similar genetic background (sister lines), some of these genes can probably be involved with cold tolerance or sensitivity and could be used in future biotechnological approaches aiming to increase rice tolerance to low temperature.
