Project description:Analysis of gene expression data from four genetically diverse wild soybean accessions helps reveal both sensitive and resistant responses of the plants to increased ozone levels. Results help characterize genetic response of wild soybean to ozone stress and could help provide information on genetic resources for creating ozone-tolerant soybean breeding lines.

Project description:In this study, two accessions of Arabidopsis thaliana (Columbia and Landsberg erecta) were crossed and tetrads were obtained using thanks to the the quartet mutation, which keeps the 4 haploid pollen grains from a single meiosis attached together. By fertilising a plant (of ecotype Columbia) with a single tetrad, then selecting seeds from siliques containing exactly four seeds and finally sequencing the 4 developed plants, we can access the complete history of meiotic recombination events occurring in a single male meiosis. Comparison of the genomic sequences (WGS) of the 4 plants in a tetrad makes it possible to identify meiotic COs and NCOS events in each tetrad thanks to the numerous polymorphisms specific to each of the parental genomes. The analysis of the WGS tetrads data consists of genotyping a series of SNV markers (differentiating Columbia and Landsberg) positioned on the five chromosomes for the 4 (M1, M2, M3, M4) individuals of a tetrad, representing the 4 chromatids of each chromosomes. A total of 20 tetrads, the F1 and the two parental accessions Columbia and Landsberg erecta were sequenced.
Project description:Cultivated soybean has domesticated in China for a long history, and there are several significant phenotypic differences between wild and cultivated soybeans. Seed of cultivar is generally larger than wild soybean, therefore here we comprehensively analyzed transcriptomes of thirteen soybean accessions seeds including seven wild soybeans and six landraces through applying strand-specific RNA sequencing. Differential expressed genes related seed weight were identified, some of them were known to be associated with seed development in Arabidopsis. Noncoding RNAs are known to play important roles in plant development, and we profiled the expression pattern of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) in cultivated and wild soybean seeds. We have identified 1,251 long intergenic noncoding RNA, 243 intronic RNA and 81 antisense lncRNA, transcriptional levels of a number of lncRNAs were significantly different between cultivated and wild soybeans, suggesting that lncRNA may be involved in soybean seed development.

Project description:Pod dehiscence is an important agronomic trait. Pod dehiscence would cause huge yield losses before soybean maturity. Although some of soybean pod dehiscence associated genes have been identified, the underlying mechanism of pod dehiscence is still not comprehensively explained. In this study, we have identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between shattering-resistant and shattering-susceptible soybean accessions based on transcriptome analyses of 10 soybean accessions. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) that may be involved in soybean pod dehiscence were also identified, and we constructed co-expression networks between mRNAs and lncRNAs. RNA sequencing results were further verified by real-time PCR. Furthermore, DEGs were screened through analyzing positions of soybean pod dehiscence quantitative trait locus (QTLs) and phenotypes of soybean pod dehiscence for achieving pod-dehiscence candidate genes.

Project description:CGH was used to compare structural variation among four soybean cultivars (Archer, Minsoy, Noir1 and Williams 82). Four additional hybridizations were performed with these and other accessions (Kingwa, Williams, M92-220, Richland and Essex) to confirm the patterns observed.

Abstract:
The generation of off-flavors in soybean homogenates such as n-hexanal via the lipoxygenase (LOX) pathway can be a problem in the processed food industry. Previous studies have examined the effect of using soybean varieties missing one or more of the 3 LOX isozymes on n-hexanal generation. A dynamic mathematical model of the soybean LOX pathway using ordinary differential equations was constructed using parameters estimated from existing data with the aim of predicting how n-hexanal generation could be reduced. Time-course simulations of LOX-null beans were run and compared with experimental results. Model L(2), L(3), and L(12) beans were within the range relative to the wild type found experimentally, with L(13) and L(23) beans close to the experimental range. Model L(1) beans produced much more n-hexanal relative to the wild type than those in experiments. Sensitivity analysis indicates that reducing the estimated K(m) parameter for LOX isozyme 3 (L-3) would improve the fit between model predictions and experimental results found in the literature. The model also predicts that increasing L-3 or reducing L-2 levels within beans may reduce n-hexanal generation. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: This work describes the use of mathematics to attempt to quantify the enzyme-catalyzed conversions of compounds in soybean homogenates into undesirable flavors, primarily from the compound n-hexanal. The effect of different soybean genotypes and enzyme kinetic constants was also studied, leading to recommendations on which combinations might minimize off-flavor levels and what further work might be carried out to substantiate these conclusions.
