Project description:Acid rain, as a worldwide environmental issue, can cause serious damage to plants. In this study, we provided the first case study on the systematic responses of arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh.) to simulated acid rain (SiAR) by transcriptome approach. In this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from Arabidopsis with simulated acid rain treatments for 68 hr, and contrasting with control group in the same time. Totally, 439 differetal expression genes were obtained in our stduy. Form them, 13 genes which dramatically changed their expression were found related to S metabolism.

Project description:Acid rain, as a worldwide environmental issue, can cause serious damage to plants. In this study, we provided the first case study on the systematic responses of arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh.) to simulated acid rain (SiAR) by transcriptome approach. In this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from Arabidopsis with simulated acid rain treatments for 68 hr, and contrasting with control group in the same time. Totally, 439 differetal expression genes were obtained in our stduy. Form them, 13 genes which dramatically changed their expression were found related to S metabolism. 6 Total samples were analyzed. Total RNA was extracted using the RNeasy Plant Mini Kit (Qiagen). Preparation of labeled target cRNA was carried out following the technical manual of Arabidopsis Genome GeneChip array (Affymetrix). Double-stranded cDNA was synthesized from 5 M-NM-<g of template total RNA using the One-Cycle cDNA Synthesis kit (Affymetrix), and biotin labeled cRNA was synthesized using the IVT Labeling kit (Affymetrix). The labeled cRNA was purified with GeneChip Sample Cleanup Module (Affymetrix). The quality and quantity of the cRNA was checked by conducting gel electrophoresis. Twenty micrograms of the purified cRNA of each sample was fragmented and hybridized to arrays for 16 h at 45M-BM-0C. All arrays were washed and stained automatically by using a fluidics Station 450 (Affymetrix) and scanned by GeneChipM-BM-. scanner 3000 (Affymetrix). All procedures were performed according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys protocols (Affymetrix). Normalization and expression estimate computation were calculated from the .CEL output files from the Affymetrix GCOS 1.1 software using RMA implemented in R language using standard settings. Statistical testing for differential expression was performed with logic-t analysis. Functional categories were assigned to genes using the AGI number to search the MIPS database (http://mips.gsf.de/cgi-bin/proj/thal/) and the Arabidopsis Information Resource website, TAIR (http://www.arabidopsis.org/).
Project description:To reveal the potential mechanisms involved in the dysfunction of antiviral immune responses under simulated microgravity conditions, we investigated the transcriptional changes related to the status of innate immune responses by RNA-seq with poly I:C or mock PBS treatment under Normal gravity or simulated microgravity conditions. Our results indicate that the retinoic acid inducible gene (RIG)-I-like receptor (RLR) and Toll-like receptor (TLR) signal pathways, which are both involved in the type-I interferon induction, are significantly inhibited by simulated microgravity effects.
Project description:Pistacia chinensis Bunge is known as dioecious, but we have found wild monoecious individuals. In order to screen the candidate genes which may influence the sex expression or floral phenotypic differences of P. chinensis, the inflorescence buds for different sex types associated with the sex differentiation were selected and tested for small RNA sequencing. Sex-specific differentially expressed small RNA were discovered, combined with real-time PCR data, the regulation patterns of various sex types were first revealed. Our study represents the first detailed analysis of small RNA sequencing, providing more clues for understanding the mechanism of sex determination on P. chinensis.

Project description:Loranthus (Taxillus chinensis) is an important medicinal and parasitic plant that attacks other plants for living. To reveal the mechanisms of haustorium development, we employed an iTRAQ proteomics-based approach to identify differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) of fresh seeds (CK), baby (FB), and adult haustoria (FD).
Project description:Atractylodes macrocephala is a traditional Chinese medicine in China. It is widely used in clinic and the market demand is great. The quality difference between A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz and A. japonica Koidz.ex Kitam is great, which seriously affects its clinical curative effect. Determination of Atractylosin by High-performance liquid chromatography. Transcriptomics coupled with Metabonomics for elucidating differences between the components in A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz and A. japonica Koidz.ex Kitam. It was found that ACS, ACC, PAL and NOS were the key genes and metabolites related to the synthesis of atractylodes macrocephala. The decrease of salicylic acid content in A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz may lead to the decrease of its ability to mediate the elicitor of endophytic fungi, resulting in the down-regulation of the expression of TGAL4 transcription factor and the up-regulation of DOGL3 transcription factor in A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz cells, which may affect the accumulation of Atractylosin. The study above provides a theoretical basis for elucidating the biosynthesis pathway of atractylosin in A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz.
