Project description:Purpose: Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) is an economically important vegetable crop worldwide, and cucumber fruit spine density has an important impact on the commercial value. However, little is known about the regulatory mechanism for the fruit spine formation.In this study, the transcriptome analyses of ovaries and pericarps from numerous-spine parent and few-spine parent were conducted to identify the gene regulatory networks involved in the formation and development of numerous fruit spines in cucumber. Methods: Cucumber mRNA profiles of ovaries and pericarps from numerous-spine parent and few-spine parent were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina HiSeq 4000. Then, clean data (clean reads) were obtained by removing reads containing adapters, reads containing poly-N sequences and low-quality reads from the raw data. Simultaneously, the Q20, Q30 and GC contents of the clean data were calculated. All of the downstream analyses were based on the high-quality clean data. Clean paired-end reads were mapped to the reference genome using TopHat v2.0.12 (Trapnell et al. 2012). Then, the FPKM (fragments per kilobase of transcript sequence per million base pairs sequenced) value of each gene was calculated to estimate gene expression levels (Trapnell et al. 2010). Genes with an adjusted P-value < 0.05 identified by DESeq were assigned as differentially expressed genes(DEGs). Results: We generated 42.96-57.53 million raw reads from each library, and 39.85-54.02 million clean reads were obtained after the removal of low-quality reads and adapter sequences. Among the clean reads, 79.03-80.94% were mapped to the gene database . Based on the KEGG database, pathway enrichment analysis was performed to identify significantly enriched metabolic pathways or signal transduction pathways in DEGs. Plant hormone signal transduction was significantly enriched in up-regulated genes in both F_6DBF compared with M_6DBF and F_0DAA compared with M_0DAA. Conclusions: Based on the transcriptome analysis, we excavated possible biological regulatory networks involved in the formation and development of numerous fruit spines in cucumber. This work will promote the exploration of molecular mechanisms that regulate cucumber fruit spine density.

Project description:Trichomes are the hair-like structures that are widely present on the surface of aerial organs and function in plant defense against biotic and abiotic stresses. Previous studies focus on the single cell trichomes in Arabidopsis and cotton, or multicellular glandular trichomes in tomato, but the developmental process and molecular mechanisms controlling multicellular non-glandular trichome development are largely neglected. Here, we extensively characterized the fruit trichome (spine) development in wild type cucumber and in a tiny branched hair (tbh) mutant that contains a spontaneous mutation and has hairless foliage and smooth fruit surface. Our data indicated that cucumber trichome was multicellular and non-glandular, with no branches or endoreduplication. Further, the major feature of cucumber trichome development was spine base expansion. Transcriptome profiling through Digital Gene Expression indicated that meristem-related genes and transcription factors were implicated in the fruit spine development, and polarity regulators were upregulated during spine base expansion. qRT-PCR verified the reliability of our RNA-SEQ data, and in situ hybridization confirmed the enriched expression of meristem regulators CUP-SHAPED COTYLEDON3 (CUC3) and STM (SHOOT MERISTEMLESS) , as well as the abaxial identity gene KANADI (KAN) in cucumber fruit spine. Together, our results suggest a distinct regulatory pathway involving meristem genes and polarity regulators in multicellular trichome development in cucumber. Using Digital Gene Expression technology to compare the genome-wide gene expression profiles in the fruit spines of wild type cucumber and the tbh mutant, as well as the fruit spines on fruits of 0.5cm and 1.6cm long, repectively. Two biological repelicates were generated for each tissue.

Project description:Cucumber fruit wart composed of spine and tubercule is an important appearance quality trait, which affects product classification and market value of cucumber fruit. Although several key genes for initiation and development of spine and tubercule have been cloned, their underlying mechanisms and relationships have not been well studied. Here, we identified a cucumber basic Helix-Loop-Helix (bHLH) gene CsHEC2 that was strongly expressed in spines and tubercules of cucumber peel. Knockout lines obtained using CRISPR/Cas9 technology were used to explore the biological function of CsHEC2. Compared with the wild type, the Cshec2 mutants resulted in reduced density of wart, and decreased cytokinin accumulation in fruit peel compared to wild type. To comprehensively analyze the regulatory network, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) experiments were conducted on female buds at 7 days before anthesis (DBA). Transcriptomic data analysis showed that 293 and 1295 genes were up- and down-regulated in Cshec2 mutants relative to WT, respectively. Several sets of genes for cytokinin biosynthesis and metabolism were expressed differently, which explained the decrease of cytokinin in Cshec2 mutants. Our results suggested that CsHEC2 is very likely to regulate the initiation of fruit wart by affecting cytokinin pathway.

Project description:Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) fruit is a type of fleshy fruit that is harvested immaturely. Early fruit development directly determines the final fruit length and diameter, and consequently the fruit yield and quality. Different cucumber varieties display huge variations of fruit length, but how fruit length is determined at the molecular level remains poorly understood. To understand the genes and gene networks that regulate fruit length in cucumber, high throughout RNA-seq data were used to compare the transcriptomes of early fruit from two near isogenic lines with different fruit lengths. 3955 genes were found to be differentially expressed, among which 2368 genes were significantly up-regulated and 1587 down-regulated in the line with long fruit. Microtubule and cell cycle related genes were dramatically activated in the long fruit, and transcription factors were implicated in the fruit length regulation in cucumber. Thus, our results built a foundation to dissect the molecular mechanism of fruit length control in cucumber, a key agricultural trait of significant economic importance.

Comparative analysis of fruit from two near-isogenic lines, 408 (long fruit) and 409 (short fruit), was employed to discover genes and networks that regulate the fruit length. Two biological replicates were used from each line.

Project description:The carpel number (CN) is an important fruit trait affecting fruit shape, size, and internal quality in cucumber. CsCLAVATA3 (CsCLV3) was previously showed to be the simply inherited gene responsible for carpel number variation in cucumber, but the molecular mechanism of CsCLV3 regulating carpel number remains elusive. Here, we found that the expression of CsCLV3 was negatively correlated with carpel number variation in different cucumber lines. Knock down of CsCLV3 by RNAi led to increased number of petals and carpels, suggesting that CsCLV3 functions as a negative regulator for floral organ number in cucumber. WUSCHEL (WUS) has been well characterized to promote CLV3-expressing stem cell activity in a non-cell autonomous manner to regulate meristem maintenance and floral organ number. However, here we found the expression region of CsCLV3 overlaps with CsWUS in the basal domain of meristem, and CsCLV3 interact with CsWUS at the protein level through binding to the WUS-box motif. Overexpression of CsFUL1, a FRUITFULL-like MADS-box gene involved in fruit length regulation, resulted in increased number of floral organs in cucumber. Biochemical analyses indicated that CsFUL1 can directly bind to CsWUS promoter to stimulate its expression. Further, we found that auxin participates in carpel number variation in cucumber through physical interaction of AUXIN RESPONSE FACTOR 14 (CsARF14) and CsWUS. Therefore, CsFUL1 and CsARF14 are two new players in the WUS-CLV pathway in determining carpel number variation in cucumber.

Project description:Genotyping arrays are tools for high throughput genotyping, which is required in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Since the first cucumber genome draft was reported, genetic maps were constructed mainly based on simple-sequence repeats (SSRs) or on combinations of SSRs and other sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP). In this study we developed the first cucumber genotyping array which consisted of 32,864 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). These markers cover the cucumber genome every 2.1Kb and have parents/F1 hybridizations as a training set. The training set was validated with Fludigm technology and had 98% concordance. The application of the genotyping array was illustrated by constructed a genetic map of 600 cM in length based on recombinant inbred lines (RIL) population of a 9930XGy14 cross of which compromise of 11564 SNPs. The markers collinearity between the genetic map and genome references of the two parents estimated as R2=0.97. Moreover, this comparison supports a translocation in the beginning of chromosome 5 that occurred in the lineage of 9930 and Gy14 as well as local variation in the recombination rate. We also used the array to investigate the local allele frequencies along the cucumber genome and found specific region with segregation distortions. We believe that the genotyping array together with the training set would be a powerful tool in applications such as quantitative-trait loci (QTL) analysis and GWAS.

Project description:Shoot branching is an important agronomic trait that directly determines plant architecture and affects crop productivity. To promote crop yield and quality, axillary branches need to be manually removed during cucumber production for fresh market and thus are undesirable. Auxin is well known as the primary signal imposing for apical dominance and acts as a repressor for branching outside of the lateral buds. The TEOSINTE BRANCHED1/CYCLOIDEA /PCF (TCP) family gene BRANCHED1 (BRC1) has been shown to be the central integrator for multiple environmental and developmental factors that functions locally to inhibit shoot branching. However, no direct link has been reported between auxin and BRC1. Here, we find that cucumber BRANCHED1 (CsBRC1) is expressed in the axillary buds and displays higher expression level in cultivated cucumber than its wild ancestor. Knockdown of CsBRC1 by RNAi leads to increased bud outgrowth and reduced auxin accumulation in buds. We further show that CsBRC1 directly binds to two auxin efflux carriers PIN-FORMED (CsPIN1b and CsPIN3) and negatively regulates their expression. Ectopic expression of CsPIN1b or CsPIN3 driven by CsBRC1 promoter results in increased shoot branching. Moreover, shade induces the expression of CsBRC1 in cultivated cucumber, but not in wild ancestor, which may be partly due to the addition of two light response elements in the CsBRC1 promoter of cultivated cucumber. Therefore, our data suggest the formation of a regulatory pathway of shade-CsBRC1-auxin transport in suppressing lateral bud outgrowth during cucumber domestication.

Project description:Excitatory synapses occur mainly on dendritic spines, and spine density is usually correlated with the strength of excitatory synaptic transmission. We report that Nr4a1, an activity-inducible gene encoding a nuclear receptor, regulates the density and distribution of dendritic spines in CA1 pyramidal neurons. Nr4a1 overexpression resulted in elimination of the majority of spines; however, postsynaptic densities were preserved on dendritic shafts, and the strength of excitatory synaptic transmission was unaffected, showing that excitatory synapses can be dissociated from spines. mRNA expression profiling studies suggest that Nr4a1-mediated transcriptional regulation of the actin cytoskeleton contributes to this effect. Under conditions of chronically elevated activity, when Nr4a1 was induced, Nr4a1 knockdown increased the density of spines and PSDs specifically at the distal ends of dendrites. Thus, Nr4a1 is a key component of an activity-induced transcriptional program that regulates the density and distribution of spines and synapses. After 10 days in culture, dissociated mouse hippocampal neurons in 6-well plates were infected with lentivirus expressing either Flag-Nr4a1 or GFP and incubated for 6 days to allow for transgene expression. Total RNA was then isolated using RNeasy Plus kit (QIAGEN). Samples passing an mRNA quality check proceeded to quantitative analysis on Agilent-026655 4x44 Mouse Microarrays.
