Project description:Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is amongst the oldest domesticated crop plants and remains one of the world's most important crop species. It is diploid with a haploid genome of 5.1 gigabases (Gb), twice the size of those of human and maize, and closely related to the most widely grown crop, hexaploid wheat. To meet global demand for food, feed and fibre, it is commonly agreed that reference genome sequences of our crop plants are urgently required to enable genome-assisted crop improvement. As part of the The International Barley Genome Sequencing Consortium (IBSC) we present here raw data obtained from Illumina (GAII) sequencing of RNA samples from nine different barley cultivars for the purpose of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) discovery.

Project description:Barley is one of the most important cereals, which is used for breweries, animal and human feeds. Genetic manipulation of plant hormone cytokinin (CK) levels may influence several physiological processes, besides others stress tolerance, root formation and crop yield. In planta, endogenous CK status is finely regulated by the enzyme cytokinin dehydrogenase (EC 1.5.99.12; CKX), that irreversibly cleaves the N6-side chain of adenine-derived CKs. Increasing grain yield by mean of manipulation of endogenous CK content was assayed by the silencing of the HvCKX1 gene. Moreover, to elucidate the putative role of HvCKX1 gene on grain production, knocked-out Hvckx1 mutant plants were generated using RNA-guided Cas9 system.

Project description:There is growing evidence for the prevalence of DNA copy number variation (CNV) and its role in phenotypic variation in recent years. Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was used to explore the extent of this type of structural variation in the barley genome. In a panel of 14 genotypes including domesticated cultivars and wild barleys, we found that 14.9% of all the sequences on the array are affected by CNV. Higher levels of CNV diversity are present in the wild accessions relative to cultivated barley. A substantial portion (37%) of the CNV events are present in both wild and domesticated barley. CNVs are enriched in telomeric regions for all chromosomes except 4H, which is also the barley chromosome with the lowest proportion of CNVs. CNV affected 9.5% of the coding sequences represented on the array. The genes affected by CNV are enriched for sequences annotated as disease-resistance proteins and protein kinases, suggesting the potential for CNV to influence variation for responses to biotic and abiotic stress. The analysis of CNV breakpoints indicated that DNA repair mechanisms of double-strand breaks (DSBs) via single-stranded annealing (SSA) and synthesis-dependent strand annealing (SDSA) play an important role in the origin of many structural changes in barley. Here we present the first catalog of CNVs in a diploid Triticeae species, which opens the door for future genome diversity research in a tribe that comprises the economically important cereal species wheat, barley and rye. Our findings constitute a valuable resource for the identification of CNV affecting genes of agronomic importance.

Project description:Cancer cachexia has been linked to gut bacterial alterations, but alterations of gut viruses, mostly bacteriophages, have not yet been explored. We performed shotgun metagenomic sequencing of DNA from stool samples of 78 cachectic and 42 non-cachectic cancer patients. K-mer-based matching to reference databases revealed abundance variations of bacteria and viruses. Beyond bacterial alterations, cachectic patients exhibited significantly lower bacteriophage abundance, predominantly affecting Caudovirales and Siphoviridae species (double-stranded DNA) but also Inoviridae and Microviridae families (single-stranded DNA).

Project description:Because of severe abiotic limitations, Antarctic soils represent simplified ecosystems, where microorganisms are the principle drivers of nutrient cycling. This relative simplicity makes these ecosystems particularly vulnerable to perturbations, like global warming, and the Antarctic Peninsula is among the most rapidly warming regions on the planet. However, the consequences of the ongoing warming of Antarctica on microorganisms and the processes they mediate are unknown. Here, using 16S rRNA gene pyrosequencing and qPCR, we report a number of highly consistent changes in microbial community structure and abundance across very disparate sub-Antarctic and Antarctic environments following three years of experimental field warming (+ 0.5-2°C). Specifically, we found significant increases in the abundance of fungi and bacteria and in the Alphaproteobacteria-to-Acidobacteria ratio. These alterations were linked to a significant increase in soil respiration. Furthermore, the shifts toward generalist or opportunistic bacterial communities following warming weakened the linkage between bacterial diversity and functional diversity. Warming also increased the abundance of some organisms related to the N-cycle, detected as an increase in the relative abundance of nitrogenase genes via GeoChip microarray analyses. Our results demonstrate that soil microorganisms across a range of sub-Antarctic and Antarctic environments can respond consistently and rapidly to increasing temperatures, thereby potentially disrupting soil functioning. We conducted in situ warming experiments for three years using open-top chambers (OTCs) at one sub-Antarctic (Falkland Islands, 52ºS) and two Antarctic locations (Signy and Anchorage Islands, 60ºS and 67ºS respectively) (see Supplementary Fig. 1 for a map). OTCs increased annual soil temperature by an average of 0.8°C (at a depth of 5 cm), resulting in 8-43% increase in positive-degree days annually and a decrease in freeze-thaw cycle frequency by an average of 15 cycles per year (8). At each location, we included densely vegetated and bare fell-field soils in the experimental design for a total of six environments. Densely vegetated and bare environments represent two contrasting environments for Antarctic soil microorganisms, with large differences in terms of C and N inputs to soils. Massively parallel pyrosequencing (Roche 454 GS FLX Titanium) of 16S rRNA gene amplicons was used to follow bacterial diversity and community composition [GenBank Accession Numbers: HM641909-HM744649], and functional gene microarrays (GeoChip 2.0)(11) were used to assess changes in functional gene distribution. Bacterial and fungal communities were also quantified using real-time PCR.
