Project description:The data present global gene expression profiling of roots of two barley genotypes with contrasting ability to cope with drought stress. We used the whole root system and the second leaf of CamB and Maresi genotypes subjected to 10-days of mild drought at seedling stage. The transcriptomes of leaves served in the presented study as a background to depict, which genes may respond with the expression changes in an organ-specific manner. Our data indicate that the mild drought resulted in more changes in the transcriptomes of roots than in the leaves and more differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were root-specific. We also found that similar number of DEGs were induced or repressed by the stress in roots of CamB genotype, whereas in roots of more drought susceptible Maresi a down-regulation of gene expression prevailed. We identified 88 genes encoding transcription factors and gene expression regulators that were differentially expressed in roots and the majority of them were root-specific. We discuss their probable function in drought response and tolerance and predicted a possible regulatory network downstream of selected transcription factors.

Project description:Plant survival in adverse environmental conditions requires a substantial change in the metabolism, which is reflected by the extensive transcriptome rebuilding upon the occurrence of the stress. Therefore, transcriptomic studies offer an insight into the mechanisms of plant stress responses. Here, we present the results of global gene expression profiling of roots and leaves of two barley genotypes with contrasting ability to cope with drought stress. Our analysis suggests that drought tolerance results from a certain level of transcription of stress-influenced genes that is present even before the onset of drought. Genes that predispose the plant to better drought survival play a role in the regulatory network of gene expression, including transcripts for several transcription factors, translation regulators and structural components of ribosomes. Important group of genes is involved in signaling mechanisms, with significant contribution of hormone signaling pathways and an interplay between ABA, auxin, ethylene and brassinosteroid homeostasis. Signal transduction in drought tolerant genotype may be more efficient through the expression of genes required for environmental sensing that are active already during normal water availability and are related to actin filaments and LIM domain proteins, which may function as osmotic biosensors. Better survival of drought may also be attributed to more effective processes of energy generation and more efficient chloroplasts biogenesis. Interestingly, our data suggest that several genes from photosynthesis process are required for the establishment of effective drought response not only in leaves, but also in roots of barley. Thus, we propose a hypothesis that root plastids may turn into the anti-oxidative centers protecting root macromolecules from oxidative damage during drought stress. Specific genes and their potential role in building up a drought-tolerant barley phenotype is extensively discussed with special emphasis on processes that take place in barley roots. When possible, the interconnections between particular factors are emphasize to draw a broader picture of the molecular mechanisms of drought tolerance in barley.

Project description:ABA INSENSITIVE 5 (ABI5) is a basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor which acts in the abscisic acid (ABA) signaling and is activated in response to abiotic stresses. It was shown that ABI5 binds ABA RESPONSIVE ELEMENTs (ABRE cis-elements) present in the promoters of regulated genes and activates or represses their transcription in response to stress. However, the precise role of barley (Hordeum vulgare) ABI5 in ABA signaling is still not well understood. We have identified a hvabi5.d mutant using barley TILLING (Targeted Induced Local Lesions IN Genomes) platform. hvabi5.d showed drought tolerant phenotype. To identify molecular mechanisms responsible for hvabi5.d response to drought, we perform drought-related gene expression analysis in barley in two genotypes: the wild-type (WT) barley cultivar 'Sebastian’ and hvabi5.d mutant; in two time points: (1) optimal water conditions, and (2) after 10 days of drought stress in the second leaf; analyses were performed in three biological replicates. Global transcriptome analysis (Agilent Barley Microarray) of the mutant and parent cultivar ‘Sebastian’ exposed to drought enabled to identify genes in hvabi5.d which were associated with better response of the mutant to drought. These data increase our understanding of HvABI5-dependent modulation of plant response to the drought stress.

Project description:Drought tolerance is a key trait for increasing and stabilizing barley productivity in dry areas worldwide. Identification of the genes responsible for drought tolerance in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) will facilitate understanding of the molecular mechanisms of drought tolerance, and also genetic improvement of barley through marker-assisted selection or gene transformation. To monitor the changes in gene expression at transcription levels in barley leaves during the reproductive stage under drought conditions, the 22K Affymetrix Barley 1 microarray was used to screen two drought-tolerant barley genotypes, Martin and Hordeum spontaneum 41-1 (HS41-1), and one drought-sensitive genotype Moroc9-75. Seventeen genes were expressed exclusively in the two drought-tolerant genotypes under drought stress, and their encoded proteins may play significant roles in enhancing drought tolerance through controlling stomatal closure via carbon metabolism (NADP malic enzyme (NADP-ME) and pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH), synthesizing the osmoprotectant glycine-betaine (C-4 sterol methyl oxidase (CSMO), generating protectants against reactive-oxygen-species scavenging (aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), ascorbate-dependant oxidoreductase (ADOR), and stabilizing membranes and proteins (heat-shock protein 17.8 (HSP17.8) and dehydrin 3 (DHN3). Moreover, 17 genes were abundantly expressed in Martin and HS41-1 compared with Moroc9-75 under both drought and control conditions. These genes were likely constitutively expressed in drought-tolerant genotypes. Among them, 7 known annotated genes might enhance drought tolerance through signaling (such as calcium-dependent protein kinase (CDPK) and membrane steroid binding protein (MSBP), anti-senescence (G2 pea dark accumulated protein GDA2) and detoxification (glutathione S-transferase (GST) pathways. In addition, 18 genes, including those encoding Δl-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase (P5CS), protein phosphatase 2C-like protein (PP2C) and several chaperones, were differentially expressed in all genotypes under drought; thus, they were more likely general drought-responsive genes in barley. These results could provide new insights into further understanding of drought-tolerance mechanisms in barley.

Project description:Drought is a destructive abiotic stress, with plants possessing diverse strategies to survive periods of limited water resources. Previous results have described connections between strigolactone (SL) and drought, however, here we used the barley (Hordeum vulgare) SL-insensitive mutant hvd14 (dwarf14) to investigate the SL-dependent mechanisms related to water deficit response. By combining transcriptome, proteome with phytohormone analyses and physiological data, we describe the drought-mediated differences between wild-type and hvd14 plants. Our findings indicate that the drought sensitivity of hvd14 is related to weaker induction of abscisic acid-responsive genes/proteins, lower jasmonic acid content, higher reactive oxygen species content, and lower wax biosynthic and deposition mechanisms then wild-type plants. In addition, we identify a series of transcription factors (TFs) that are exclusively drought-induced in wild-type barley. Critically, we resolve a comprehensive series interestions between the drought-induced barley transcriptome and proteome responses that allow us to understand the impacts of SL in mitigating water limiting conditions. These data provide a number of new angles for the development of drought-resistant barley.

Project description:CBP20 (Cap-Binding Protein 20) encodes a small subunit of the cap-binding complex (CBC), which is involved in the conserved cell processes related to RNA metabolism in plants and, simultaneously, engaged in the signaling network of drought response, which is dependent on ABA. CBP20 (Cap-Binding Protein 20), which encodes a small subunit of the cap-binding complex (CBC). CBC is a heterodimer that is formed by two subunits – a small one that is encoded by CBP20 and a large subunit that is encoded by CBP80 (Cap-Binding Protein 80). Both the nucleotide and amino acid sequences of CBP20 are highly conserved across species from Saccharomyces to Homo sapiens. CBP20 is involved in very conserved cell processes that are related to RNA metabolism such as polyadenylation and splicing, miRNA biogenesis, and according to the most recent reports, to histone methylation (Kuhn et al. 2008; Kim et al. 2008; Gregory et al. 2008; Kmieciak et al. 2002; Laubinger et al. 2008; Li et al. 2016). Most striking, however, is its simultaneous engagement in ABA signaling during seed germination and drought response (Papp et al. 2004; Jäger et al. 2011). It was shown that an Arabidopsis cbp20 mutant exhibited a hypersensitivity to ABA during seed germination and a better performance under water deficit conditions than the WT (Papp et al. 2004; Jäger et al. 2011). Interestingly, the Arabidopsis knockout mutant in CBP80 (Cap-Binding Protein 80; ABA hypersensitive 1) exhibited a similar phenotype when exposed to ABA or drought stress (Hugouvieux et al. 2001; 2002; Daszkowska-Golec et al. 2013). In Solanum tuberosum, an amiR80.2-14 mutant (CBP80 silenced using artificial microRNAs) was also reported to be drought tolerant (Pieczyński et al. 2013). Water-deficiency conditions related gene expression analysis was performed in barley in two genotypes: the wild-type (WT) barley cultivar 'Sebastian’ and hvcbp20.ab mutant; in three time points: (1) optimal water conditions, (2) onset of drought stress and (3) after 10 days of prolonged drought stress in the second leaf; analyses were performed in three biological replicates. Here, we report the enhanced tolerance to drought stress of barley mutant in the HvCBP20 gene.Transcriptome analysis using the Agilent Barley Microarray integrated with observed phenotypic traits allowed to conclude that the hvcbp20.ab mutant exhibited better fitness to stress conditions by its much more efficient and earlier activation of stress-preventing mechanisms. The network hubs involved in the adjustment of hvcbp20.ab mutant to the drought conditions were proposed. These results enabled to make a significant progress in understanding the role of CBP20 in the drought stress response.

Project description:Increasing the drought tolerance of crops is one of the most challenging goals in plant breeding. To improve crop productivity during periods of water deficit, it is essential to understand the complex regulatory pathways that adapt plant metabolism to environmental conditions. Among various plant hormones and second messengers, calcium ions are known to be involved in drought stress perception and signaling. Plants have developed specific calcium-dependent protein kinases that convert calcium signals into phosphorylation events. In this study we attempted to elucidate the role of a calcium-dependent protein kinase in the drought stress response of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), one of the most economically important crops worldwide. The ongoing barley genome project has provided useful information about genes potentially involved in the drought stress response, but information on the role of calcium-dependent kinases is still limited. We found that the gene encoding the calcium-dependent protein kinase HvCPK2a was significantly upregulated in response to drought. To better understand the role of HvCPK2a in drought stress signaling, we generated transgenic Arabidopsis plants that overexpressed the corresponding coding sequence. Overexpressing lines displayed drought sensitivity, reduced nitrogen balance index, an increase in total chlorophyll content and decreased relative water content. In addition, in vitro kinase assay experiments combined with mass spectrometry allowed HvCPK2a autophosphorylation sites to be identified. Our results suggest that HvCPK2a is a dual-specificity calcium-dependent protein kinase that functions as a negative regulator of the drought stress response in barley.

Seven flag leaves of a replication for each genotype were harvested at 0 d, 1 d, 3 d and 5 d after reach 10% of AWC in the soil to constitute a single biological replicate. These flag leaves were employed for RNA isolation by using Trizol reagent following the manufacturer’s protocol (Invitrogen, Karlsruhe, Germany). The RNA was further purified using RNeasy Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). RNA yield and quality were determined by using an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Techologies, Boblingen, Germany). A table of the average, log2 RMA signal intensity values of three biological replicates for each Sample is linked below as a supplementary file.

Project description:The aim of the study was the elucidation of drought-induced molecular events related to plant hormones occurring in crown tissue of barley, the key organ for cereal survival. Experiments involving large-scale measurements of gene expression at transcript and protein level, hormone abundance, and phenotypic variability in a set of selected barley mutants were carried out to uncover how disturbance of GAs, BRs and SLs homeostasis may affect the barley multivariate response to drought. The characterization included early stages of plant development and continued to the later stages, with observation of effects on the whole-plant architecture and yield formation. The integration of all data allowed to enrich the knowledge of regulatory networks in barley exposed to drought.
