Project description:Purpose: the goals of this study are to compare fruit of two clitivars oriental melon transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) at different stages to explore carotenoid potentail carotenoid accumulation mechanism Methods:The transcriptome sequence of two cultivars oriental melon fruits at different stages were generated by deep sequencing with three repeats using Illumina. The sequence reads that passed filters were mapped to melon genome (http://cucurbitgenomics.org/organism/18) using HISAT2 software. The differently expressed genes were identify by |log2(FoldChange)| > 0 & padj <= 0.05, and qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays Result:Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped about 40 million sequence reads per sample to the melon genome. The differentially expressed genes were functionally classified by GO and KEGG enrichment. We focused on carotenoid metabolism related gene and validated using qRT-PCR. The results showed RNA-seq and qRT-PCR were highly correlated. Conclusion: Our study provided transcriptome sequence of oriental melon fruits at different stages in two cultivars. The optimized data analysis workflows reported here should provide comparative framework of expression profiles. Our transcriptome characterization contribute to analyze gene functions and metabolic process of oriental melon.

Project description:Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is a commercially important fruit crop that is cultivated worldwide. The melon research community has recently benefited from the determination of a complete draft genome sequence and the development of associated genomic tools, which have allowed us to focus on small RNAs (sRNAs). These are short, non-coding RNAs 21â24 nucleotides in length with diverse physiological roles. In plants, they regulate gene expression and heterochromatin assembly, and control protection against virus infection. Much remains to be learned about the role of sRNAs in melon. We constructed 10 sRNA libraries from two stages of developing ovaries, fruits and photosynthetic cotyledons infected with viruses, and carried out high-throughput pyrosequencing. We catalogued and analyzed the melon sRNAs, resulting in the identification of 26 known miRNA families (many conserved with other species), the prediction of 84 melon-specific miRNA candidates, the identification of trans-acting siRNAs, and the identification of chloroplast, mitochondrion and transposon-derived sRNAs. In silico analysis revealed more than 400 potential targets for the conserved and novel miRNAs. This analysis provides insight into the composition and function of the melon small RNAome, and paves the way towards an understanding of sRNA-mediated processes that regulate melon fruit development and melonâvirus interactions.

Project description:RNA-Seq was conducted among sergeant bulks of four sex types of melon flowers, namely monoecious (AAGG), gynoecious (AAgg), hermaphrodite (aaGG), and andromonoecious (aagg), a total of about 105 million reads were generated from the melon transcriptome using Solexa sequencing.Totally 79,698 unigenes were generated and 75,537 unigenes were mapped to 11,805 annotated proteins in assembled melon genome (Garcia-Mas et al., 2012). Transcripts related to photomorphogenesis and flower development in plants were found, Most of the genes encoding plant hormone metabolism related protein, others related to flora development including Tasselseeds and male sterility genes which in phytohormones pathway were also detected. Comparison each two bulks (AAGG:AAgg, AAGG:aaGG, aagg:AAgg and aaGG:aagg ) exhibited different profiles of putative genes (include 745, 1342, 858 and 571 different expression genes, respectively). mRNA profiles of four sex types of melon flowers, namely monoecious (AAGG), gynoecious (AAgg), hermaphrodite (aaGG), and andromonoecious (aagg) were were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina Hiseq 2000.

Project description:Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) represent a family of small endogenous, non-coding RNAs that play critical regulatory roles in plant growth, development, and environmental stress responses. Although Hami melon is an attractive model for valuable biological traits analysis, the role of miRNA action in the fruit development and ripening remains largely unknown. Here, we performed small RNA sequencing to investigate the Hami melon miRNA profiles at four fruit developmental stages Results: Small RNA sequencing yielded raw reads in eight libraries. miRNAs expression profiles were variable at different fruit developmental stages. The expression levels of five known miRNAs were validated by quantitative real-time PCR. Among the identified miRNAs, several miRNAs showed developmentally regulated and differentially expressed pattern during fruit development. Conclusions: Our results present a first comprehensive set of identification and characterization of Hami melon fruit miRNAs and their potential targets, which provide valuable basis for further research on the critical role of miRNAs in melon fruit development.

Project description:Recent studies have shown that several plant species require microbial associations for stress tolerance and survival. In this work, we show that the desert endophytic bacterium Enterobacter sp. SA187 enhances yield and biomass of alfalfa in field trials, revealing a high potential for improving desert agriculture. To understand the underlying molecular mechanisms, we studied SA187 interaction with Arabidopsis thaliana. SA187 colonized surface and inner tissues of Arabidopsis roots and shoots and conferred tolerance to salt and osmotic stresses. Transcriptome, genetic and pharmacological studies revealed that the ethylene signaling pathway plays a key role in mediating SA187-triggered abiotic stress tolerance to plants. While plant ethylene production is not required, our data suggest that SA187 induces abiotic stress tolerance by bacterial production of 2-keto-4-methylthiobutyric acid (KMBA), known be converted into ethylene in planta. These results reveal a part of the complex molecular communication process during beneficial plant-microbe interactions and unravel an important role of ethylene in protecting plants under abiotic stress conditions.
