Project description:We performed small RNA deep sequencing and identified 47 peach-specific and 47 known miRNAs or families with distinct expression patterns. Together, the identified miRNAs targeted 80 genes, many of which have not been reported previously. Like the model plant systems, peach has two of the three conserved trans-acting siRNA biogenesis pathways with similar mechanistic features and target specificity. Unique to peach, three of the miRNAs collectively target 49 MYBs, 19 of which are known to regulate phenylpropanoid metabolism, a key pathway associated with stone hardening and fruit color development, highlighting a critical role of miRNAs in regulation of peach fruit development and ripening. We also found that the majority of the miRNAs were differentially regulated in different tissues, in part due to differential processing of miRNA precursors. Up to 16% of the peach-specific miRNAs were differentially processed from their precursors in a tissue specific fashion, which has been rarely observed in plant cells. The miRNA precursor processing activity appeared not to be coupled with its transcriptional activity but rather acted independently in peach. Collectively, the data characterizes the unique expression pattern and processing regulation of peach miRNAs and demonstrates the presence of a complex, multi-level miRNA regulatory network capable of targeting a wide variety of biological functions, including phenylpropanoid pathways which play a multifaceted spatial-temporal role in peach fruit development.

Project description:MicroRNAs play critical roles in various biological and metabolic processes. The function of miRNAs has been widely studied in model plants such as Arabidopsis and rice. However, the number of identified miRNAs and related miRNA targets in peach (Prunus persica) is limited. To understand further the relationship between miRNAs and their target genes during tissue development in peach, a small RNA library and three degradome libraries were constructed from three tissues for deep sequencing. We identified 117 conserved miRNAs and 186 novel miRNA candidates in peach by deep sequencing and 19 conserved miRNAs and 13 novel miRNAs were further evaluated for their expression by RT-qPCR. The number of gene targets that were identified for 26 conserved miRNA families and 38 novel miRNA candidates, were 172 and 87, respectively. Some of the identified miRNA targets were abundantly represented as conserved miRNA targets in plant. However, some of them were first identified and showed important roles in peach development. Our study provides information concerning the regulatory network of miRNAs in peach and advances our understanding of miRNA functions during tissue development.

Project description:Plum pox virus (PPV) causes the serious sharka disease in Prunus trees. Peach [P. persica (L.) Batsch] trees are severely affected by PPV and no definitive source of genetic resistance has been identified at this moment. Previous results showed, however, that PPV-resistant ‘Garrigues’ almond [P. dulcis (Mill.) D.A. Webb] was able to transfer its resistance to ‘GF305’ peach through grafting, preventing these trees from PPV infection and reducing symptomatology and viral load in PPV-infected plants. A recent study tried to identify genes responsible for this effect by studying mRNA expression through RNAseq data in peach and almond plants, before and after grafting, and before and after PPV infection. In this work, we used the same peach and almond samples, but focused the high-throughput analyses on small RNAs (sRNAs) expression. We studied massive sequencing data and found an interesting pattern of sRNAs overexpression linked to antiviral defense genes that suggested activation of these genes followed by downregulation to basal levels. We also discovered that ‘Garrigues’ almond plants were infected by different plant viruses that were transferred to peach plants. The large amounts of viral sRNAs found in grafted peaches indicated a strong RNA silencing antiviral response and led us to postulate that these plant viruses could be collaborating by cross-protection in the observed ‘Garrigues’ effect.

Project description:Thinning is indispensable practice in peach cultivation aiming to reduce fruit number per plant, promoting sink-source balance and reducing competition among fruit, which results in bigger fruit and the improvement of other fruit-quality parameters. Inhibition of floral induction by GAs has been largely demonstrated and commercial products based on GAs have been used to this aim. We tested a product GA4/7 based in different moments after full bloom in peach to reduce the number of flowers in the following season. Return to bloom and transcriptome analysis were performed to identify the best moment for the treatment, increasing the product efficacy and understanding the product action at genetic level.

Project description:The fruit of melting-flesh peach cultivars produce high levels of ethylene caused by high expression of PpACS1, resulting in rapid fruit softening at the late-ripening stage. In contrast, the fruit of stony hard peach cultivars do not soften and produce little ethylene due to low expression of PpACS1. To elucidate the mechanism for suppressing PpACS1 expression in stony hard peaches, a microarray analysis was performed. Several genes that displayed similar expression patterns as PpACS1 were identified and shown to be IAA-inducible genes.
