Project description:Production of morphologically and physiologically variable seeds is an important strategy that helps plants to survive in unpredictable natural conditions. However, the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana and most agronomically essential crops yield visually homogenous seeds. Using automated phenotype analysis, we observed that in Arabidopsis small seeds tend to have higher primary and secondary dormancy levels when compared to large ones. Transcriptomic analysis revealed distinct gene expression profiles between large and small seeds. Large seeds had higher expression of translation-related genes implicated in germination competence. In contrast, small seeds showed elevated expression of many positive regulators of dormancy, including a key regulator of this process – the DOG1 gene. Differences in DOG1 expression were associated with differential production of its alternative cleavage and polyadenylation isoforms where in small seeds proximal poly(A) site is selected resulting in a short mRNA isoform. Furthermore, single-seed RNA-seq analysis demonstrated that large seeds resemble DOG1 knockout mutant seeds. Finally, on the single seed level, the expression of genes affected by seed size was correlated with the expression of genes positioning seeds on the path towards germination. Our results demonstrate an unexpected link between seed size and dormancy phenotypes in a species producing highly homogenous seed pools, suggesting that the correlation between seed morphology and physiology is more widespread than initially assumed.

Project description:Seeds are highly resilient to the external environment, which allow plants to persist in unpredictable and unfavorable conditions. Some plant species have adopted a bet-hedging strategy to germinate a variable fraction of seeds in any given condition, and this could be explained by population-based threshold models. Here, in the model plant Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) we induced secondary dormancy to address the transcriptional heterogeneity among seeds that leads to binary germination/non-germination outcomes. We developed a single seed RNA-seq strategy that allowed us to observe a reduction in seed transcriptional heterogeneity as seeds enter stress conditions, followed by an increase during recovery. We identified groups of genes whose expression showed a specific pattern through a time course and used these groups to position the individual seeds along the transcriptional gradient of germination competence. In agreement, transcriptomes of dormancy-deficient seeds (mutant of DELAY OF GERMINATION 1 gene) showed a shift towards higher values of the germination competence index. Interestingly, a significant fraction of genes with variable expression encoded translation-related factors. In summary, interrogating hundreds of single seed transcriptomes during secondary dormancy-inducing treatment revealed variability among the transcriptomes that could result from the distribution of population-based sensitivity thresholds. Our results also showed that single seed RNA-seq is the method of choice for analyzing seed bet-hedging-related phenomena.

Project description:affy_sunflower_2010_13 - affy_sunflower_2010_13 - It concerns the interaction between ROS and hormones in dormancy release in sunflower seeds. ABA is responsible for dormancy maintenance, while GA and ethylene promote seed germination. Based on our results, ROS could represent good candidate to shift from a hormone signalling to another determining the dormancy state in sunflower seeds.-We aim to understand the mechanisms controlling sunflower seed dormancy at the transcriptomic level, by the application of treatments which maintain dormancy as ABA, or alleviate dormancy as ROS and ethylene. Transcripts comparison will be performed between dormant and non-dormant sunflower embryo imbibed 24h on water, on ABA, on methylviologen, a pro-oxidant compound or on ethylene.

Project description:To determine genes involved in induction of dormancy in response to reduced maturation temperatures, RNA sequencing was performed on developing seeds matured at 20°C, where low dormancy is observed, and compared to seeds matured at 15°C where high dormancy is observed.

Project description:Red rice fully dormant seeds do not germinate even under favourable germination conditions. In several species, including rice, seed dormancy can be removed by dry-afterripening (warm storage); thus, dormant and nondormant seeds can be compared for the same genotype. A weedy (red) rice genotype with strong dormancy was used for mRNA expression profiling, by RNA-Seq, of dormant and nondormant dehulled caryopses (here addressed as seeds) at two temperatures (30 °C and 10 °C) and two durations of incubation in water (8 hours and 8 days). Aim of the study was to highlight the differences in the transcriptome of dormant and nondormant imbibed seeds.

Project description:Light inhibits the seed germination in the Cypriot accession (CYP) of Aethionema arabicum. Extended light illumination also induces a secondary seed dormancy that inhibits the germination even if the seeds were transferred back to darkness. This analysis aims to compare the seed transcriptome before or after the dormancy was established by light illumination (100 µmol/m2s; white light). One day light treatment (1dL) inhibits the germination but the seeds are not yet dormant. Seven day (7dL) or 14-day (14dL) long light treatment induces dormancy, and the seeds stay dormant after 7 dal-light plus 7 day-dark (7dL7dD) treatment. To understand the dormancy establishment, transcriptome was compared between non-dormant (1dL) and dormant (7dL, 14dL, 7dL7dD) seed samples.

Project description:To determine genes involved in induction of dormancy in response to reduced maturation temperatures, RNA sequencing was performed on developing seeds matured at 20°C, where low dormancy is observed, and compared to seeds matured at 15°C where high dormancy is observed. Col green cotyledon seeds matured at 20°C and 15°C were dissected from siliques between five to seven hours after dawn and frozen in liquid nitrogen. RNA was extracted as described previously (Penfield et al., 2005).

Project description:au13-12_polysome - transcriptome and translatome of arabidopsis wt seeds according to dormancy - Identification of transcripts that are differentially abundant (transcriptome) and transcripts that are addressed to translation (translatome) in imbibed Arabidopsis seeds in relation with dormancy. During imbibition of seeds (16h and 24h in darkness at 25°C, dormant and non-dormant seeds), transcriptome analysis is done on total RNA and translatome analysis on polysomal RNA. - At harvest seeds are dormant. They stay dormant if they are stored at -20°C (D) and become non-dormant (ND) if they are stored 3 weeks at +20°C. Arabidopsis dormant seeds do not germinate at 25°C in darkness while non-dormant seeds do. Total RNA and polysomal RNA (polysomal fractions purified on sucrose gradients) were extracted from imbibed seeds for 16h or 24h at 25°C in darkness (3 biological replicates). Transcriptome and translatome are compared for Dormant vs Non-Dormant for 16h and 24 imbibition. In silico comparison will allow to compare transcriptome and translatome for each point and type of seeds and to compare the time points (16 vs 24h) for each type of sample.

Project description:affy_dormance_sunflower - affy_dormance_mrnaoxidized_sunflower - We focus our research on the release of embryonic dormancy in sunflower seeds and more precisely on the molecular mechanisms controlling seed dormancy release during dry after-ripening. Our data show an increase of ROS during dormancy release associated with an increase of stored mRNA oxidation during after-ripening as shown with determination of the RNA oxidation marker : 8-hydroxyguanosine (8OHG) To assess to role of mRNA oxidation in this process, we isolated 8OHG-containing mRNA to identify oxidized transcript using microarray analysis.-The samples compared are the following: 1) 8OHG containing mRNA isolated from total RNA extracted from a population of 100 embryonic axis of dry dormant seed (Dox) ie. Seed which have been frozen at -30°C after harvest to keep dormancy 2) 8OHG containing mRNA isolated from total RNA extracted from a population of 50 embryonic axis from dry non dormant ie. Seeds which have been after-ripened (stored) at 70% RH during 2 month (NDox) Replicates correspond to different batches of seeds from the same harvest, which have been treated (after ripened) independently and from which the 8OHG containing fraction have been isolated independently. 4 arrays - SUNFLOWER; dormancy
