Project description:We used high throughput sequencing of coding RNA to identify systematic patterns of expression during vernalization in meristems of lily bulbs that were treated with cold temperature for increasing periods of time. cDNA libraries were constructed from bulbs stored at 25 degrees Celsius (control) and at 4 degrees Celsius for 2, 5, 7 and 9 weeks
Project description:Replant disease caused by continuous cropping obstacles commonly occurs in a Lilium brownii consecutive monoculture. To reveal the mechanisms contributing to the continuous cropping obstacles of L. brownii, four cropping patterns (fallow, L. brownii-rice rotation, newly planted L. brownii, and 2-year L. brownii consecutive monoculture) were designed, and Illumina MiSeq (16S rDNA and ITS) was utilized to detect shifts in the microbial community in the rhizosphere. Our result showed that planting of L. brownii significantly reduced soil pH. Consecutive monoculture of L. brownii can significantly decrease the diversity and abundance of soil bacteria, but markedly increase the diversity and abundance of soil fungi. Under the four planting pattern treatments, the changes in soil pH were consistent with the changes in the Shannon diversity index of soil bacterial communities, whereas we observed a negative correlation between soil pH and Shannon diversity index for fungi. The relative abundance of Lactobacillales significantly increased in soils of L. brownii consecutive monoculture, while Acidobacteriales, Solibacterales, and Xanthomonadales increased in soils of L. brownii-rice rotation and newly planted L. brownii. Collectively, this work aimed to elucidate the relationship between the L. brownii planting patterns and soil microbiome, thereby providing a theoretical basis for screening new biological agents that may contribute to resolving continuous cropping obstacles of L. brownii.
Project description:We sequenced mRNA and small RNA (sRNA) profiles in the interaction between Brachypodium distachyon (Bd) and Serendipita indica (Si; syn. Piriformospora indica), at four (4) days post inoculation (DPI). sRNA sequencing reads of Si-colonized and non-colonized roots, as well as axenic fungal cultures were generated. Three biological samples of each were sequenced, with two technical replicates per sample (SE). Raw reads from sRNA sequencing were submitted to technical adapter trimming (Cutadapt) before upload.
Project description:Lilium brownii F.E.Brown var. viridulum Baker is a medicinal and food plant that is widely distributed in northern and eastern Asia. Here, we report on the complete chloroplast genome sequence of L. brownii var. viridulum. The chloroplast genome is 152,665 bp in size and includes two inverted repeat regions of 53,052 bp, which is separated by a large single-copy region of 82,085 bp and a small single-copy region of 17,528 bp. A total of 131 genes were predicted, including 38 tRNA, 8 rRNA, and 85 protein-coding genes. Phylogenetic analysis placed L. brownii var. viridulum under the family Liliaceae.
