Project description:In the present study, we compared transcriptional response to salinity between male and female individuals of Populus yunnanensis. We found that several functional groups of genes involved in important pathways were differentially expressed, including photosynthesis-related genes which were mainly up-regulated in males but down-regulated in females. This gene expression pattern is consistent with physiological observation that salinity inhibited photosynthetic capacity more in females than in males. In conclusion, our study provided molecular evidence of sexual differences in poplar salinity tolerance. Identified sex-related genes in salinity tolerance and their functional groups will enhance our understanding of sexual differences to salinity stress at the transcription level. 4 samples examined: males without salinity stress, males exposed to salinity stress, females without salinity stress and females exposed to salinity stress. Nine plants of each sex were exposed to each treatment, and RNA samples from the 9 individuals were pooled with equal proportion.

Project description:Low salinity is one of the main factors limiting the distribution and survival of marine species. As a euryhaline species, the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas can be tolerant to relative low salinity. Through Illumina sequencing, we generated two transcriptomes with samples taken from gills of oysters exposed to the low salinity seawater versus the optimal seawater. By RNAseq technology, we found 1665 up-regulation genes and 1815 down-regulation genes that may regulate osmotic stress in C. gigas. As blasted by GO annotation and KEGG pathway mapping, functional annotation of the genes recovered diverse biological functions and processes. The genes regulated significantly were dominated in cellular process and regulation of biological process, intracellular and cell, binding and protein binding according to GO annotation. The results highlight genes related to osmoregulation and signaling and interactions of osmotic stress response, anti-apoptotic reactions as well as immune response, cell adhesion and communication, cytosqueleton and cell cycle. The study aimed to compare the expression data of the two transcriptomes to provide some useful insights into signal transduction pathways in oysters and offer a number of candidate genes as potential markers of tolerance to hypoosmotic stress for oysters. In addition, the characterization of C. gigas transcriptome will facilitate research into biological processes underlying physiological adaptations to hypoosmotic shock for marine invertebrates. Twelve Pacific oysters were exposed in low salinity (8‰) seawater and in optimal salinity (25‰) seawater, respectively. Gills from six oysters in each condition were balanced mixed respectively. The transcriptomes of two samples were generated by deep sequencing, using Illumina HiSeq2000.

Project description:The salinity gradient separating marine and freshwater environments is a major ecological divide, and the mechanisms by which most organisms adapt to new salinity environments are poorly understood. Diatoms are a lineage of ancestrally marine microalgae that have repeatedly colonized and diversified in freshwaters. Cyclotella cryptica is a euryhaline diatom that naturally tolerates a broad range of salinities, thus providing a powerful system for understanding the genomic mechanisms for mitigating and acclimating to low salinity. To understand how diatoms mitigate acute hypoosmotic stress, we abruptly shifted C. cryptica from seawater to freshwater and performed transcriptional profiling at 8 time points across 10 hours. We found substantial remodeling of the transcriptome, with over half of the genome differentially expressed in at least one time point. The peak response occurred within 1 hour, with strong repression of genes involved in functions related to cell growth and osmolyte production, and strong induction of genes implicated in stress defense such as scavenging reactive oxygen species and maintaining osmotic balance. Notably, transcripts largely returned to baseline levels within 4–10 hours, with growth resuming shortly thereafter, suggesting that gene expression dynamics may be useful for predicting acclimation. Moreover, comparison to a study of expression profiling following months-long acclimation of C. cryptica to freshwater revealed little overlap between the genes and processes differentially expressed in cells exposed to acute stress versus fully acclimated conditions. Altogether, this study highlights the power of time-resolved transcriptomics to reveal fundamental insights into how cells dynamically respond to an acute environmental shift and provides new insights into how diatoms mitigate natural salinity fluctuations and have successfully diversified across freshwater habitats worldwide.

Project description:In present study we compared transcriptional response to salinity stress between susceptible CO 12 and tolerant genotype trichy 1 of finger millet. We found out that several functional group of genes like transporters, transcription factors, genes involved in cell signalling, osmotic homeostasis, compatible solutes biosynthesis were upregulated more in tolerant genotype as compared to susceptible genotype in response to salinity stress. Salnity inhibited photosynthetic capacity and photosynthesis related genes more in susceptible genotype as compared to tolerant genotype. Identified genes are excellent targets for further functional studies in order to understand more specific molecular mechanisms of salt tolerance in two genotypes of finger millet and can be further used for developing salinity tolerant crops through genetic engineering.

Project description:Oilseed mustard, Brassica juncea, exhibits high levels of genetic variability for salinity tolerance. To obtain the global view of transcriptome and investigate the molecular basis of salinity tolerance in a salt-tolerant variety CS52 of B. juncea, we performed transcriptome sequencing of control and salt-stressed seedlings. De novo assembly of 184 million high-quality paired-end reads yielded 42,327 unique transcripts longer than 300 bp with RPKM ≥1. When compared with non-redundant proteins, we could annotate 67% unigenes obtained in our study. Based on the mapping to expressed sequence tags (ESTs), 52.6% unigenes are novel compared to EST data available for B. juncea and constituent genomes. Differential expression analysis revealed altered expression of 1469 unigenes in response to salinity stress. Of these, 587, mainly associated with ROS detoxification, sulfur assimilation and calcium signaling pathways, are up regulated. Notable of these is RSA1 (SHORT ROOT IN SALT MEDIUM 1) INTERACTING TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR 1 (RITF1) homolog up regulated by >100 folds in response to stress. RITF1, encoding a bHLH transcription factor, is a positive regulator of SOS1 and several key genes involved in scavenging of salt stress-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS). Further, we performed comparative expression profiling of key genes implicated in ion homeostasis and sequestration (SOS1, SOS2, SOS3, ENH1, NHX1), calcium sensing pathway (RITF1) and ROS detoxification in contrasting cultivars, B. juncea and B. nigra, for salinity tolerance. The results revealed higher transcript accumulation of most of these genes in B. juncea var. CS52 compared to salt-sensitive cultivar even under normal growth conditions. Together, these findings reveal key pathways and signaling components that contribute to salinity tolerance in B. juncea var. CS52. We report transcriptome sequencing of two-weeks-old seedlings of B. juncea var. CS52 under normal growth conditions (CTRL) and in response to salinity stress (SS) using Illumina paired-end sequencing

Project description:Freshwater salinization poses global challenges for aquatic organisms inhabiting urban streams, impacting their physiology and ecology. However, current salinization research predominantly focuses on mortality endpoints in limited model species, overlooking the sublethal effects on a broader spectrum of organisms and the exploration of adaptive mechanisms and pathways under natural field conditions. To address these gaps, we conducted high-throughput sequencing transcriptomic analysis on the gill tissue of the euryhaline fish Gasterosteus aculeatus, investigating its molecular response to salinity stress in the highly urbanized river Boye, Germany. We found that in stream sections with sublethal concentrations of chloride costly osmoregulatory systems were activated, evidenced by the differential expression of genes related to osmoregulation. Our enrichment analysis revealed differentially expressed genes (DEGs) related to transmembrane transport and regulation of transport and other osmoregulation pathways, which aligns with the crucial role of these pathways in maintaining biological homeostasis. Notably, we identified candidate genes involved in increased osmoregulatory activity under salinity stress, including those responsible for moving ions across membranes: ion channels, ion pumps, and ion transporters. Particularly, genes from the solute carrier family SLC, aquaporin AQP1, chloride channel CLC7, ATP-binding cassette transporter ABCE1, and ATPases member ATAD2 exhibited prominent differential expression. These findings provide insights into the potential molecular mechanisms underlying the adaptive response of euryhaline fish to salinity stress and have implications for their conservation and management in the face of freshwater salinization.
