Project description:Sugarcane plantlets from a variety with high inputs of N obtained from BNF (genotype SP70-1143, CTC, Brazil) free of microorganisms were obtained by sterile meristem culture and micropropagation according to the method of Hendre et al. (1983). In vitro-grown SP70-1143 rooted sugarcane plantlets were inoculated as described by James et al. (1994) with 0.1 ml of 106–107 bacterial suspension. Controls were inoculated with medium only. Endophytic diazotrophic bacteria used were Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus (PAL5 strain) or a mixture of Herbaspirillum seropedicae (HRC54 strain) and H. rubrisubalbicans (HCC103 strain). All plants were maintained at 30°C with an irradiance of 60 µmol photons m–2 s–1 for 12 h d–1. One day after the inoculation, plant tissues were examined for bacterial colonization by the Most Probable Number (MPN) estimation, according to the methods of Reis et al. (1994) and plantlets were collected and immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen. Five plantlets were polled for each treatment. Extraction of total RNA was performed separately on each sample pool. Keywords: comparison of associations with different endophytic bacterias

Transcriptomic changes in Medicago truncatula and Lotus japonicus root nodules during drought stress

Project description:Drought is one of the major environmental factors limiting biomass and seed yield production in agriculture. In this research we focused on plants from Fabaceae family, which have a unique ability for establishment of symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing bacteria, and are relatively susceptible to water limitation. We present the changes in nitrogenase activity and global gene expression occurring in Medicago truncatula and Lotus japonicus root nodules during water deficit. Our results prove a decrease in the efficiency of nitrogen fixation as well as extensive changes in plant and bacterial transcriptomes shortly after watering cessation. We show for the first time that not only symbiotic plant component, but also Sinorhizobium meliloti and Mesorhizobium loti bacteria residing in the root nodules of M. truncatula and L. japonicus, respectively, adjust their gene expression in response to water shortage. Although our results demonstrate that both M. truncatula and L. japonicus root nodules are susceptible to water deprivation, they indicate significant differences in plant and bacterial response to drought between tested species, which may be related to various type of root nodules formed by these species.
