Project description:Analysis of 96-hours-old-rice seedlings with promoted-growth induced by implantation with low-energy nitrogen ion beam. Ion-beam implantation can induce changes in 351 up-regulated transcripts and 470 down-regulated transcripts, including signaling proteins, kinases, plant hormones, transposable elements, transcription factors, non-coding protein RNAs, secondary metabolites, resistance proteins, peroxidase, chromatin modification and even miRNAs. Results provide insight into the molecular basis of biological effects of plants that implanted by ion beam. Three sample groups—the controls, the ion-beam implanted samples and vacuum-treated samples. Three replicates were included in each sample group. Radiation induced gene expression rice seedlings was measured at 96 hours after germination of the seeds.

Project description:Phosphate starvation/sufficient rice seedling, root or shoot Pi-starvation or Pi-sufficient stresses responsible rice genes, including previously unannotated genes were identified by Illumina mRNA-seq technology. 53 million reads from Pi-starvation or Pi-sufficient root or shoot tissues were uniquely mapped to the rice genome, and these included 40574 RAP3 transcripts in root and 39748 RAP3 transcripts in shoot. We compared our mRNA-seq expression data with that from Rice 44K oligomicroarray, and about 95.5% (root) and 95.4% (shoot) transcripts supported by the array were confirmed expression both by the array and by mRNA-seq, Moreover, 11888 (root) and 11098 (shoot) RAP genes which were not supported by array, were evidenced expression with mRNA-seq. Furthermore, we discovered 8590 (root) and 8193 (shoot) previously unannotated transcripts upon Pi-starvation and/or Pi-sufficient.
Project description:Linear energy transfer (LET) is an important factor affecting several aspects of the irradiation effect, e.g. cell survival and mutation frequency, making the heavy-ion beam an effective mutagen. To study the mechanisms behind LET-dependent effects, expression profiling was performed after heavy-ion beam irradiation of imbibed rice seeds. Array-based experiments at three time points (0.5, 1, 2 h after the irradiation) revealed that the number of up- or down-regulated genes was highest 2 h after irradiation. Array-based experiments with four different LETs at 2 h after irradiation identified LET-independent regulated genes that were up/down-regulated regardless of the value of LET; LET-dependently regulated genes, whose expression level increased with the rise of LET value, were also identified. Oryza sativa L. 'Nipponbare' seeds were imbibed for 3 days. The seeds were irradiated with 22.5 or 50 keV/μm C-ion at a dose of 15 Gy. Gene expressions of irradiated and unirradiated embryos were measured at 0.5, 1, and 2 hours after irradiation. Three independent experiments were performed at each time and LET.

Oryza sativa L. 'Nipponbare' seeds were imbibed for 3 days. The seeds were irradiated with 22.5 or 50 keV/μm C-ion or 63 or 80 keV/μm Ne-ion at a dose of 15 Gy. Gene expressions of irradiated and unirradiated embryos were measured at 2 hours after irradiation. Three independent experiments were performed at each time and LET.
