Project description:Brown planthopper (BPH; Nilaparvata lugens) is a phloem feeding insect which is one of the most serious threats to rice crops in many countries throughout Asia. 1H NMR spectroscopy, combined with chemometrics, was used to analyze the polar metabolome from leaf extracts of Thai Jasmine rice (brown planthopper (BPH)-susceptible KD) and its BPH resistant isogenic lines (BPH-resistant IL7 and BPH-resistant+ IL308 varieties) with and without BPH infestation at various time points (days 1, 2, 3, 4 and 8). Physiological changes of the rice isogenic lines were different based on the quantitative trait loci of BPH resistance. Multivariate models were capable of distinguishing between the susceptible and the resistant rice varieties throughout the infestation. The concentration of 10 metabolites were significantly altered (p < 0.05) between the infested and the control groups of each examined rice variety. Metabolic pathway analysis suggested that BPH infestation could perturb transamination during the early stages of infestation (days 1–3) for all rice varieties. In addition, the IL7 and IL308 varieties responded earlier (day 3) than the KD variety (day 8) by perturbing amino acid metabolism, shikimate and gluconeogenesis pathways. By day 8 of the infestation, the KD cultivar responded by activating the amino acid-mediated-de novo pathway whereas the IL308 variety activated the purine and pyrimidine compound-mediated-salvage pathway for nucleotide biosynthesis. This study has identified, for the first time, several potential metabolic pathways for acclimatization and defense mechanisms against BPH infestation. These findings provide a valuable, first insight into BPH resistance mechanisms in Thai Jasmine rice.
Project description:The aim of this study was to analyze potential brown planthopper (BPH) resistant genes in Rathu Heenati (RHT) by Affymetrix whole rice genome array,BPH susceptible and resistant rice varieties of TN1(Taichung Native 1)as control. All the resistant related genes derived from RHT will be analyzed according to the SSR markers interval flanked on the chromosome 3, 4, 6 and 10. It will be benefit to the gene clone and marker assistant breeding for Bph3 gene in the near future. We used microarrays to detail the global differential gene expression before and after brown planthopper attack in two different varieties, and identified distinct classes of high enriched genes induced by BPH or constituent in RHT

Stems of the rice plant infected by BPH were collected at 0h (T0), 8h (T8), 24h (T24) after BPH attack, total RNA were extracted for the microarray hybirdlization.
Project description:BPH9 is a gene that confers rice strong resistance to its devastating pest BPH. Understanding the molecular responses of the resistant and susceptible varieties would pave the way to controlling the pest more effectively. To better understand the molecular mechanism underlying resistance to BPH mediated by BPH9, we conducted a genome-wide microarray analysis of NIL-BPH9 and 9311 at the early stage of BPH infestation.
Project description:Bph6 is a gene that confers rice high resistance to its devastating pest BPH. Understanding the molecular responses of the resistant and susceptible varieties would pave the way to controlling the pest more effectively. To better understand the molecular mechanism underlying resistance to BPH mediated by Bph6, we conducted a genome-wide microarray analysis of NIL-BPH9 and 9311 at the early stage of BPH infestation.
Project description:The transcriptomes of resistant BPH15 introgression line and the susceptible recipient line were analyzed using high-throughput RNA sequencing. In total, 2,914 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified. BPH-responsive transcript profiles were distinct between resistant and susceptible plants and between the early stage (6 h after infestation, HAI) and late stage (48 HAI). The key defense mechanism was related to jasmonate signaling, ethylene signaling, receptor kinase, MAPK cascades, Ca2+ signaling, PR genes, transcription factors, and protein post-translational modifications. Note: All samples in SRA were assigned the same sample accession (SRS565690 and SRS565691). This is incorrect as there are different samples, hence Source Name was replaced with new values. Comment[ENA_SAMPLE] contains the original SRA sample accessions.
Project description:Transcriptome analysis of BPH-resistant and BPH-susceptible rice seedlings in response to BPH infestation. RH vs. 02428: a microarray analysis of genes that were differentially expressed in a BPH-resistant cultivar, Rathu Heenati (RH) and a susceptible cultivar 02428 after infestation with BPH for 24h. RB vs. SB: a microarray analysis of genes that were differentially expressed in resistant seedling pool and susceptible seedling pool both infested with BPH for 24h. RB vs. RN: a microarray analysis of genes that were differentially expressed in resistant seedling pool infested with BPH for 24h and resistant seedling pool without BPH infestation. Goal was to explore the molecular basis underlying BPH-resistance in rice.
Project description:In this study, we analyzed the early response of two rice cultivars to infection by RSV (Rice stripe virus) and its carrier at the transcriptome level using next-generation deep-sequencing techniques. We investigated the alteration in gene expression between a disease-resistant cultivar and a susceptible cultivar before and after inoculation with RSV by co-culturing with Laodelphax striatellus for 48 h. Our study provides insight at the molecular level into the mechanism of development of rice stripe disease, which contributes to our understanding of the rice-RSV interaction.
Project description:Studies have shown that Rice Salt Sensitive 1 (RSS1) is involved in stress response in rice plants. Primers were developed for amplification via Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) of a region that contained a simple sequence repeat (SSR) in RSS1. PCR was performed on 6 different varieties of Oryza sativa. PCR product was sequenced on an ABI 3730 capillary sequence machine. Sequence data was aligned to observe differences in SSR length between each rice variety.
