Project description:Tuberous root formation is a complex process consisting of phase changes as well as cell division and elongation for radial growth. We performed an integrated analysis to clarify the relationships among metabolites, phytohormones, and gene transcription during tuberous root formation in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz). We also confirmed the effects of the auxin (AUX), cytokinin (CK), abscisic acid (ABA), jasmonic acid (JA), gibberellin (GA), brassinosteroid (BR), salicylic acid (SA), and indole-3-acetic acid conjugated with aspartic acid (IAAsp) on tuberous root development. An integrated analysis of metabolites and gene expression indicated the expression levels of several genes encoding enzymes involved in starch biosynthesis and sucrose metabolism are up-regulated during tuberous root development, which is consistent with the accumulation of starch, sugar phosphates, and nucleotides. An integrated analysis of phytohormones and gene transcripts revealed a relationship among AUX signaling, CK signaling, and BR signaling, with AUX, CK, and BR inducing tuberous root development. In contrast, ABA and JA inhibited tuberous root development. These phenomena might represent the differences between stem tubers (e.g., potato) and root tubers (e.g., cassava). On the basis of these results, a phytohormonal regulatory model for tuberous root development was constructed. This model may be useful for future phytohormonal studies involving cassava.

Project description:Cassava (Manihot esculenta) is one of the most important staple food crops worldwide. Its starchy tuberous roots supply over 800 million people with carbohydrates. Yet, surprisingly little is known about the processes involved in filling of those vital storage organs. A better understanding of cassava carbohydrate allocation and starch storage is key to improve storage root yield. In this work, we studied cassava morphology and phloem sap flow from source to sink using transgenic pAtSUC2::GFP plants, the phloem tracers esculin and 5(6)-carboxyfluorescein diacetate (CFDA), as well as several staining techniques. We show that cassava performs apoplasmic phloem loading in source leaves and symplasmic unloading into phloem parenchyma cells of tuberous roots. We demonstrate that vascular rays play an important role in radial transport from the phloem to xylem parenchyma cells in tuberous roots. Furthermore, enzymatic and proteomic measurements of storage root tissues confirmed high abundance and activity of enzymes involved in the sucrose synthase-mediated pathway and indicated that starch is stored most efficiently in the outer xylem layers of tuberous roots. Our findings represent a first basis for biotechnological approaches aimed at improved phloem loading and enhanced carbohydrate allocation and storage in order to increase tuberous root yield of cassava.

Project description:Cassava is the most important root crop in the tropics but rapid post-harvest physiological root deterioration (PPD) is a major constraint to commercial cassava production. We used label-free quantitative proteomics to generate an extensive cassava root and PPD proteome. Over 2400 unique proteins were identified in the cassava root and nearly 300 proteins showed significant abundance regulation during PPD. A candidate gene for reducing PPD was identified from the regulated proteins with enzymatic assays and afterwards verified with a transgene approach. This demonstrates the relevance of proteomics approach for crop improvements.

Project description:Cassava Anthracnose Disease (CAD) that caused by the fungus Colletotorichum anthracnose is a serious disease of cassava in worldwide. In this study, we aim to establish the cassava oligo-DNA microarray representing approximately 30,000 cassava genes and apply it to investigate the molecular mechanisms against fungal infection using two cassava cultivars; Huay Bong 60 (HB60, resistant line for CAD) and Hanatee (HN, sensitive line for CAD). Based on expression profiling, we showed that the expression of various biotic stress-inducible genes, such as detoxification enzyme related genes is higher in HB60 under the treated conditions and non-treated condition, compared with HN. These results show that stress-inducible signaling pathways including ROS detoxification are constitutively activated in HB60 even under normal growth conditions without stress. These results suggest that our microarray is a useful tool for analyzing the cassava transcriptome and add new insight into the host responses of cassava against fungal infection.

Project description:To screen genes related to the development of sweet potato tuberous roots, the high throughput sequencing of different stages of sweet potato tuberous roots was performed. The fibrous roots (FR; roots at 20 dap), developing tuberous roots (DR; roots at 60 dap) and mature tuberous roots (MR; roots at 120 dap) of Ipomoea batatas (L.) Taizhong 6 and MBP3 overexpressed lines were used for transcriptome analysis. Totally, we identified 5488 differentially expressed genes between different stage tuberous roots of Taizhong6 and 14312 differentially expressed genes between the tuberous roots of Taizhong6 and MBP3 overexpressed lines, by calculating the gene FPKM in each sample and conducting differential gene analysis. This study provides a foundation for the mechanism analysis of sweet potato tuberous root development.

Project description:Cassava mosaic disease caused by cassava begomoviruses is the most serious disease of cassava in Africa. However, the molecular mechanisms leading to symptom development of infected cassava plants are poorly understood. Here a high throughput digital gene expression profiling (DGE) based on Illumina Solexa sequencing technology was used to investigate the global transcriptional response of cassava to the African cassava mosaic virus infection. Results showed that 3,210 genes were differentially expressed in virus-infected cassava leaves. Gene Ontology (GO) term and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis indicated that photosynthesis related genes were most affected, which was consistent with the chlorotic symptom on the infected leaves. The upregulation of chlorophyll degradation genes, e.g. the genes encoding chlorophyllase and pheophorbide a oxygenase, as well as the downregulation of the major apoproteins genes in light harvesting complex II (LHCII) identified by the DGE analysis were confirmed by qRT-PCR. Together with the reduction of chlorophyll b content and fewer grana stacks in the infected leaf cells, this study reveals that the degradation of chlorophyll plays an important role during ACMV symptom development for the first time. Meanwhile, we believe that the non-lethal effect on photosystem is a trick for virus to avoid fierce host immune response and a result of the long-term co-evolution. This study will provide a road map for future investigations into virus symptom development.
