Project description:Illumina GAIIx technology was used to generate mRNA profiles from the ectomycorrhizal fungi Laccaria bicolor colonizing roots of Populus trichocarpa. Samples were taken after two, four and 12 weeks of contact in order to identify mycorrhiza-regulated transcripts. 37bp reads were generated and aligned to the Populus trichocarpa (http://www.phytozome.net/poplar.php) and the Laccaria bicolor (http://genome.jgi-psf.org/Lacbi2/Lacbi2.home.html) reference genomes using CLC Genomics Workbench 6.
Project description:Illumina HiSeq2000 technology was used to generate mRNA profiles from the ectomycorrhizal fungi Laccaria bicolor colonizing roots of Populus trichocarpa. Samples were taken after 3 months of contact in order to identify mycorrhiza-regulated transcripts. 100bp reads were generated and aligned to the Populus trichocarpa (http://www.phytozome.net/poplar.php) reference genome.

Project description:The majority of trees live in association with symbiotic fungi, which facilitate their access to soil nutrients. The ectomycorrhizal symbiosis represents a complex biological system involving multifaceted interactions between the two partners. The establishment of the symbiosis depends on various conditions (e.g. climate), but also on the genetic traits of the partners. To evaluate the impact of the genetic predisposition on the development and functioning of ectomycorrhizas, we compared the transcriptome of roots from Populus trichocarpa and Populus deltoides colonized with Laccaria bicolor.
Project description:Illumina technology was used to generate mRNA profiles of leaves, roots and Laccaria bicolor mycorrhiza of Poplar treated with ozone or stopped watering. Total RNA was extracted separately from each plant and pooled to 4 biological replicates per condition.TruSeq mRNA Stranded libraries were constructed and and sequenced using Illumina HiSeq 3000 at the Genotoul sequencing facilities (Toulouse, France). Raw reads were filtered and trimmed using erne-filter command. Filtered reads from each library were aligned to P. trichocarpa (https://phytozome-next.jgi.doe.gov/info/Ptrichocarpa_v4_1) using TopHat2 v2.12.
Project description:The Poplar transcriptome was analyzed in mycorrhizal root tips in contact with Laccaria bicolor for 2 weeks. During mycorrhization the roots were treated with either 250M-BM-5m ACC, 10nM JA or 500M-BM-5M SA and compared to untreated mycorrhiza or control roots without contact to L. bicolor. In addition the poplar mutants 35S::PttACO1 and 35S::Atetr1 were used We performed 27 hybridizations (NimbleGen) with samples derived from Populus tremula x Populus alba clone 717-1B4 control roots, untreated mycorrhiza, SA-treated mycorrhiza, ACC-treated mycorrhiza and JA-treated mycorrhiza (3 biological replicates each) as well as Populus tremula x Populus tremuloides T89 control roots, mycorrhiza, 35S::PttACO1 mycorrhiza and 35S::Atetr1-1 mycorrhiza (3 biological replicates). All samples were labeled with Cy3.

To evaluate the impact of the genetic predisposition on the development and functioning of ectomycorrhizas, we compared the transcriptome of roots from Populus trichocarpa and Populus deltoides colonized with Laccaria bicolor. The Populus whole-genome expression array version 2.0 (S. DiFazio, A. Brunner, P. Dharmawardhana, and K. Munn, unpublished data) manufactured by NimbleGen Systems Limited (Madison, WI) contains in duplicates three independent, non-identical, 60-mer probes per whole gene model plus control probes and labeling controls. Included in the microarray are 65,965 probe sets corresponding to 55,970 gene models predicted on the P.trichocarpa genome sequence version 1.0 and 9,995 aspen cDNA sequences (Populus tremula, Populus tremuloides, and P. tremula x P. tremuloides). NimbleGen whole genome microarray analyses were performed in triplicate as per manufacturer's instructions. We carried out six hybridizations (NimbleGen) with samples derived from Populus trichocarpa and Populus deltoides mycorrhizal root tips. Three samples (biological replicates) originated from Populus trichocarpa (GSM648401, GSM648403, GSM648405) and three biological replicates from Populus deltoides (GSM648408, GSM648411, GSM648414). cDNA was synthesized using CLONTECH Super Smart cDNA Synthesis kit containing an amplification step on the cDNA level. All samples were labeled with Cy3.
Project description:This study characterizes the transcriptomic alterations of Laccaria bicolor S238N during interaction with P. trichocarpa. Four time-points were analyzed, two weeks, four weeks , six weeks and twelve weeks after inoculation and compared to the transcriptome of free-living mycelium from Laccaria bicolor S238N
Project description:This study characterizes the transcriptomic alterations of P. trichocarpa during interaction with the ectomycorrhizal fungus Laccaria bicolor S238N. Four time-points were analyzed, two weeks, four weeks , six weeks and twelve weeks after inoculation. We performed 32 hybridizations (NimbleGen) with samples derived from Populus trichocarpa control roots and P.trichocarpa mycorrhizal root tips. Samples were taken after 2,4,6 and 12 weeks of interaction (four biological replicates). All samples were labeled with Cy3.
