Project description:Abscisic acid (ABA) regulates abiotic stress and developmental responses including regulation of seed dormancy to prevent seeds from germinating under unfavorable environmental conditions. ABA HYPERSENSITIVE GERMINATION1 (AHG1) encoding a type 2C protein phosphatase (PP2C) is a central negative regulator of the ABA response in germination; however, the molecular function and regulation of AHG1 remain elusive. Here we report that AHG1 interacts with DELAY OF GERMINATION1 (DOG1), which is a pivotal positive regulator in seed dormancy. DOG1 acts upstream of AHG1 and impairs the PP2C activity of AHG1 in vitro. Furthermore, DOG1 has the ability to bind heme. Binding of DOG1 to AHG1 and heme are independent processes but both are essential for DOG1 function in vivo. Our study demonstrates that AHG1 and DOG1 constitute an important regulatory system for seed dormancy and germination by integrating multiple environmental signals, in parallel with the PYL/RCAR ABA receptor-mediated regulatory system.

Project description:We have identified RDO5 as a phosphatase that promotes seed dormancy, most likely independent from ABA and DOG1. To obtain an indication about the genetic and molecular pathways by which RDO5 functions, we performed a transcriptomic comparison between rdo5-1 and its wild-type NIL-DOG1 at different seed stages, using the Arabidopsis Affymetrix AGRONOMICS1 tiling microarrays

Project description:Production of morphologically and physiologically variable seeds is an important strategy that helps plants to survive in unpredictable natural conditions. However, the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana and most agronomically essential crops yield visually homogenous seeds. Using automated phenotype analysis, we observed that in Arabidopsis small seeds tend to have higher primary and secondary dormancy levels when compared to large ones. Transcriptomic analysis revealed distinct gene expression profiles between large and small seeds. Large seeds had higher expression of translation-related genes implicated in germination competence. In contrast, small seeds showed elevated expression of many positive regulators of dormancy, including a key regulator of this process – the DOG1 gene. Differences in DOG1 expression were associated with differential production of its alternative cleavage and polyadenylation isoforms where in small seeds proximal poly(A) site is selected resulting in a short mRNA isoform. Furthermore, single-seed RNA-seq analysis demonstrated that large seeds resemble DOG1 knockout mutant seeds. Finally, on the single seed level, the expression of genes affected by seed size was correlated with the expression of genes positioning seeds on the path towards germination. Our results demonstrate an unexpected link between seed size and dormancy phenotypes in a species producing highly homogenous seed pools, suggesting that the correlation between seed morphology and physiology is more widespread than initially assumed.

Project description:Eukaryotic genomes are pervasively transcribed by RNA polymerase II. Yet, the molecular and biological implications of such a phenomenon are still largely puzzling. Here, we describe noncoding RNA transcription upstream of the Arabidopsis thaliana DOG1 gene, which governs salt stress responses and is a key regulator of seed dormancy. We find that expression of the DOG1 gene is induced by salt stress, thereby causing a delay in seed germination. We uncover extensive transcriptional activity on the promoter of the DOG1 gene, which produces a variety of lncRNAs. These lncRNAs, named PUPPIES, are co-directionally transcribed and extend into the DOG1 coding region. We show that PUPPIES RNAs respond to salt stress and boost DOG1 expression, resulting in delayed germination. This positive role of pervasive PUPPIES transcription on DOG1 gene expression is associated with augmented pausing of RNA polymerase II, slower transcription and higher transcriptional burst size. These findings highlight the positive role of upstream co-directional transcription in controlling transcriptional dynamics of downstream genes.

Project description:We analysed the transcriptome of dry seeds (the end product of seed maturation) of three genotypes with different DOG1 expression levels. These included the WT Ler (low DOG1 expression), the near isogenic line NILDOG1-Cvi (strong DOG1 expression) and the non-dormant dog1-1 mutant (absence of DOG1 expression). NILDOG1-Cvi is the Ler WT containing an introgression of the Cvi accession on chromosome 5, which includes the DOG1 gene (Bentsink et al., 2006). The dog1-1 mutant is in the NILDOG1-Cvi genetic background. The aim was to obtain a global overview of the effect of different levels of DOG1 expression during seed maturation on the dry seed transcriptome.

Project description:Seed maturation, dormancy and germination are distinct physiological processes. Transition from maturation to dormancy, and from dormancy into germination are not only critical developmental phases in the plant life cycle but are also important agricultural traits. These developmental processes and their phase transitions are fine determined and coordinately regulated by genetic makeup and environmental cues. SCARECROW-LIKE15 (SCL15) has been demonstrated to be essential for repressing the seed maturation programme in vegetative tissues (Gao et al., Nat Commun, 2015, 6:7243). Here we report that SCL15 is also important for seed dormancy maintenance, germination timing and seed vigor performance based on the effects of SCL15 mutation on plant germination, growth and reproduction when compared with wild type Arabidopsis and over-expression lines 35S:SCL15 and Napin:SCL15. Seed dormancy is enhanced by the mutation of SCL15 in a GA signaling dependent way, indicating that SCL15 plays a negative role for primary dormancy release. Seed germination is positively regulated by SCL15 through interaction with ABA, GA and auxin signaling. SCL15 acts as positive regulator of seed vigor and effect of SCL15 mRNA abundance on seed reserve accumulation and seed development during late embryogenesis may contribute to the seed vigor performance.

Project description:The molecular mechanism of seed morphophysiological dormancy of Epimedium pseudowushanense B.L.Guo. remains largely unknown. The endogenous ABA and GA content of E. pseudowushanense seeds at three developmental stages was quantitatively determined. The result showed the levels of ABA in E. pseudowushanense seeds decreased during the seed embryo growing and development, levels of GA3 increased during seed embryo growing, and levels of GA4 increased during seed dormancy releasing and seed sprouting. High-throughput sequencing method was used for reveal the E. pseudowushanense seed transcriptome. The transcriptome data were assembled as 178,613 unigenes and the numbers of differentially expressed unigenes between the seed development stages were compared. By computer analysis of the KEGG reference pathways, twelve candidate genes were likely to be involved in metabolism and signaling of abscisic acid and gibberellins. The expression patterns of these genes were revealed by real-time quantitative RT-PCR. Phylogenetic relationships among the deduced E. pseudowushanense proteins and their homologous in other plant species were analyzed. The results indicate EpNCED1, EpNCED2, EpCYP707A1 and EpCYP707A2 are likely to be involved in ABA biosynthesis and catabolism. EpSnRK2 is likely implicated in ABA signaling during seed dormancy. EpGA3ox is likely to be involved in gibberellin biosynthesis, and EpDELLA1 and EpDELLA2 are likely implicated in GA signaling. This study was the first to provide the E. pseudowushanense seed transcriptome and the key genes involved in metabolism and signaling of abscisic acid and gibberellins, and so it is valuable for studies on seed morphophysiological dormancy mechanism

Project description:Along with the inherent complexities of seed and dormancy, the use of different genotypes or mutants to study the molecular mechanisms underlying seed dormancy leads to potential biases and data misinterpretation. To provide a comprehensive insight into the actual protein activities involved in seed dormancy establishment, a SWATH-MS proteomics was performed on dormant and non-dormant developing seeds of Xanthium strumarium at five consecutive time intervals including three, 10, 20, and 30 days after burr emergence and full maturation. The amount of approximately 3.5% differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) with a ~94% stage-specificity supports considerable proteome overlap in the two seed types. More than 38% of all differentially abundant proteins were observed at the first stage, supporting the importance of this stage of seed development for seed fate determination. Rapid overrepresentation of proteins responsible for cell wall biosynthesis, cytokinesis, and seed development were detected for non-dormant seed at the first stage, while dormancy-associated proteins showed less abundance. In the middle of seed development, we identified DAPs involved in seed maturation and ABA signaling. Interestingly, higher abundant proteins in the mature non-dormant seed were mainly involved in the facilitation of seed germination. Taken together, the temporal pattern of the accumulated proteins demonstrated a delay in the initiation of active cell division, enriched response to ABA, and defect in the seed maturation in developing dormant seeds. Moreover, stored proteins in the mature dormant seed are responsible for delaying germination but not dormancy induction. Finally, assume that dormancy may be established at a stage of seed development earlier than previously thought.
