Project description:Soybean is an important economic crop for human diet, animal feeds and biodiesel due to high protein and oil content. Its productivity is significantly hampered by salt stress, which impairs plant growth and development by affecting gene expression, in part, through epigenetic modification of chromatin status. However, little is known about epigenetic regulation of stress response in soybean roots. Here, we used RNA-seq and ChIP-seq technologies to study the dynamics of genome-wide transcription and histone methylation patterns in soybean roots under salt stress. 8798 soybean genes changed their expression under salt stress treatment. Whole-genome ChIP-seq study of an epigenetic repressive mark, histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3), revealed the changes in H3K27me3 deposition during the response to salt stress. Unexpectedly, we found that most of the inactivation of genes under salt stress is strongly correlated with the de novo establishment of H3K27me3 in various parts of the promoter or coding regions where there is no H3K27me3 in control plants. In addition, the soybean histone modifiers were identified which may contribute to de novo histone methylation and gene silencing under salt stress. Thus, dynamic chromatin regulation, switch between active and inactive modes, occur at target loci in order to respond to salt stress in soybean. Our analysis demonstrates histone methylation modifications are correlated with the activation or inactivation of salt-inducible genes in soybean roots.

Project description:Salt stress is one of the most severe environmental conditions which cause huge losses in crop production worldwide. We identified an essential regulator of salt stress RSA3 and used the Affymetrix whole-genome arrays to study the effect of rsa3-1 mutation on global gene expression under salt stress. A set of genes differentially expressed in rsa3-1 under salt stress are identified.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of endogenous small RNAs that play important roles in growth, development, and environmental stress response processes in plants. Ulmus pumila is a typical deciduous broadleaved tree species of north temperate, and is widely distributed in central and northern Asia, which has important economic and ecological value. With the spread and aggravate of soil salinisation, salt stress has become a major abiotic stress that highly affects the normal growth and development of U. pumila. However, to date, no investigation into the influence of salt stress on U. pumila miRNAs has been reported. To identify miRNAs and predict their target mRNA genes under salt stress, three small RNA libraries were generated and sequenced from CK (without salt stress), LSS (light salt stress for a short time) and MSL (medium-heavy salt stress for a long time) roots of U. pumila seedlings. Through integrative analysis, 245 conserved miRNAs representing 30 families and 64 novel miRNAs were identified, of which 89 exhibited altered expression level under salt stress, and 232 potential targets for the miRNAs were predicted and annotated in U. pumila. The expressions of six differentially expressed miRNAs were validated by qRT-PCR. These salt responsive miRNAs may play crucial roles in U. pumila defense against salt stress, and our miRNA data provides valuable information regarding further functional analysis of miRNAs involved in salt tolerance of U. pumila and other forest tree species.

Project description:We found that primary root (PR) is more resistant to salt stress compared with crown roots (CR) and seminal roots (SR). To understand better salt stress responses in maize roots, six RNA libraries were generated and sequenced from primary root (PR), primary roots under salt stress (PR-salt) , seminal roots (SR), seminal roots under salt stress (SR-salt), crown roots (CR), and crown roots under salt stress (CR-salt). Through integrative analysis, we identified 444 genes regulated by salt stress in maize roots, and found that the expression patterns of some genes and enzymes involved in important pathway under salt stress, such as reactive oxygen species scavenging, plant hormone signal perception and transduction, and compatible solutes synthesis differed dramatically in different maize roots. 16 of differentially expressed genes were selected for further validation with quantitative real time RT-PCR (qRT-PCR).We demonstrate that the expression patterns of differentially expressed genes are highly diversified in different maize roots. The differentially expressed genes are correlated with the differential growth responses to salt stress in maize roots. Our studies provide deeper insight into the molecular mechanisms about the differential growth responses of different root types in response to environmental stimuli in planta.

Project description:Salinity is a pressing issue causing widespread crop loss, prompting plants to adapt through changes in gene expression. This study investigated the role of the non-tandem CCCH zinc finger protein gene AtC3H3 in Arabidopsis in response to salt stress. AtC3H3, a gene from the non-TZF gene family and known for its RNA-binding and ribonuclease activity, was found to be upregulated under osmotic stresses such as high salt and drought. When overexpressed in Arabidopsis, AtC3H3 led to increased tolerance to salt stress, not drought stress. qRT-PCR analysis showed that the expression of both well-known ABA-dependent salt stress-responsive genes, such as RAB18, RD29B, and RD22, and representative ABA-independent salt stress-responsive genes, such as DREB2A and DREB2B, was significantly higher in AtC3H3 OXs than WT under NaCl treatment, indicating its involvement in both ABA-dependent and ABA-independent signaling pathways. mRNA-Seq analysis using NaCl-treated WT and AtC3H3 OXs revealed no potential target mRNAs of the RNase function of AtC3H3, suggesting that the potential targets of AtC3H3 might be non-coding RNAs, not mRNAs. The study conclusively demonstrates that AtC3H3 plays a crucial role in salt stress tolerance by influencing the expression of salt stress-responsive genes. These findings have opened a new avenue for understanding plant stress mechanisms and suggest potential strategies for enhancing crop resilience to salinity.
