Project description:Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is one of the most important cash crops worldwide. In semi-arid/arid regions, drought stress causes growth limitation and decrease of yield. Of all the organs of a plant, fine root is the central part consisting of the root system to contribute to plant water and nutrient taken up. However, the research on the molecular mechanism underlying fine root response to soil drought has not been well understood in cotton. To better characterize the proteomic changes of cotton fine roots under drought stress, 70±5% and 40±5% soil relative water content were designed as control (CK) and drought stress (DS) groups, respectively. Tandem mass tags (TMT) technology was used to determine the proteome profiles in fine roots. The proteomic differences between CK and DS were pairwise compared at 0, 30, and 45 days after drought stress (DAD). A total of 11,628 proteins were identified, of which 10,344 proteins contained quantitative information. According to the morphological, physiological, and biochemical characteristics, 30 and 45 DAD were selected as critical stages for further analysis. Results showed that 118 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were up-regulated and 105 down-regulated in DS 30 versus CK 30; 662 DEPs were up-regulated, and 611 were down-regulated in DS 45 versus CK 45. The DEP functions were determined for their classified pathways, mainly associated with carbohydrate metabolism, energy metabolism, fatty acid metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and secondary metabolite biosynthesis. DEPs related to phytohormone and stress/defense response were also identified. To verify the accuracy of the TMT results, 20 DEPs were randomly selected for parallel reaction monitoring (PRM) verification. And results showed that the quantitative results of TMT are consistent with those of PRM, which proved that the TMT results of this study are reliable. In this article we describe changes in the protein profiles occurring in response to drought stress in cotton fine roots. Proteomic analyses of plant responses to stressors could lead to the introduction of cotton cultivars with high resistance to drought stress. Such plants would be valuable for high yielding under drought as well as other unfavorable environmental conditions.

Project description:The transcriptome signature of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of Ladakhi cattle adapted to high altitude vis a vis Sahiwal cattle adapted to the arid/semi-arid region at mean sea level was established using bovine expression microarray chips. The transcriptome analysis of PBMCs from these cattle types living at two distinct altitudes, resulted in identification of several hundred differentially expressed genes, biological processes, molecular functions and pathways.

Project description:Harris County, Texas experienced its largest outbreak of West Nile (WNV) disease in 2014. Characterization WNV isolates from the outbreak using next generation sequencing approaches, phylogeny, and animal studies revealed a novel genotype characterized by selection of an amino acid substitution, NS2A-R188K. Retrospective analysis of Genbank showed this genotype was first identified in New York and Connecticut in 2008 and then in Texas subsequently. Thus, we have termed this the Northeast 2008 (NE/WN08) genotype. Emergence of this genotype in Texas likely involved the displacement of the SW/WN03 genotype. Quasispecies diversity revealed significant variation occurred among viral isolates, but no phenotypic changes were observed in terms of temperature sensitivity and mouse virulence, suggesting that despite WNV being in North America for 15 years there are strong mutational robustness among naturally occurring WNV isolates. Examination of Genbank showed that convergent evolution of NS2A-R188K was also taking place worldwide.
