Project description:To investigate NUP62 in the regulation of plant defense against Botrytis cinerea , we performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of nup62 mutant and WT arabidopsis with or without Botrytis cinerea infection.
Project description:Purpose: The goals of this study are using RNA-seq to obtain cucumber and Botrytis cinerea transcriptome changes during infection Methods: mRNA profiles of anti-infection samples and interaction sample were generate by deep sequencing,using Illumina Hiseq 2500. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed at the transcript isoform level with two methods: Burrows–Wheeler Aligner (BWA) followed by ANOVA (ANOVA) and TopHat followed by Cufflinks. qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow,In total, 248,908,688 raw reads were generated; after removing low-quality reads and those containing adapter and poly-N, 238,341,648 clean reads remained to map the reference genome. There were 3,512 cucumber (differential expression genes) DEGs and 1,735 B. cinerea DEGs. GO enrichment and KEGG enrichment analysis were performed on these DEGs to study the interaction between cucumber and B. cinerea. To verify the reliability and accuracy of our transcriptome data, 5 cucumber DEGs and 5 B. cinerea DEGs were chosen for RT-PCR verification. Conclusions:To the best of our knowledge, this is the first analysis of large-scale transcriptome changes of cucumber during the infection of Botrytis cinerea. These results will increase our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of the cucumber defense Botrytis cinerea and may be used to protect plants against disasters caused by necrotrophic fungal pathogens.

Project description:The Arabidopsis thaliana mutant wrky33 is highly susceptible to the necrotrophic fungus Botrytis cinerea. We identified by ChIP-seq >1680 high-confidence WRKY33 binding sites associated with 1576 genes within the Arabidopsis genome, with all of them being dependent on rapid activation of WRKY33 expression by Botrytis cinerea strain 2100. Genome-wide transcriptional analysis defined 318 genes as direct functional targets at 14 h post inoculation. Comparison between resistant wild-type Columbia-0 and susceptible wrky33 mutant plants revealed that expression of 75% of all WRKY33 regulated targets were down-regulated upon infection, indicating that WRKY33 predominately acts as a repressor. However, WRKY33 appears to possess dual functionality acting either as a repressor or as an activator in a promoter-context dependent manner. Our genome-wide analysis confirmed known WRKY33 targets involved in ethylene and jasmonic acid hormone signaling and phytoalexin biosynthesis, but also uncovered a previously unknown role of abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthesis in the complex regulatory circuitry affecting resistance towards Botrytis. Analysis of transgenic plants expressing WRKY33-HA under its native promoter post inoculation with spores of Botrytis cinerea 2100
Project description:To screen Botrytis genes activated in infection process, we performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of Botrytis cinerea cultured in vitro or infecting Arabidopsis leaves.

Project description:af13_plp2 - plp2 botrytis cinerea 2 - Effects of deregulation of a lipid acyl hydrolase gene (PLP2, At2g26560) on global transcriptome upon infection by Botrytis cinerea. This deregulation affects resistance levels against fungal and bacterial pathogens, likely by perturbing the biosynthesis of oxylipins. Oxylipins are fatty acid-derived compounds (example:jasmonic acid) with diverse signaling or antimicrobial properties. - 5000 spores of Botrytis were pipetted on 4 infection sites per ault leaf. Leaf material was harvested at 0 and 2 days later. 3 plant genotypes were used (Col-0 ecotype): siPLP2 (RNAi-silenced),pBIN (empty pBIN-transformed),PLP2OE (PLP2-overexpressors). 4 dye-swap - CATMA arrays
