Project description:Maize develops separate ear and tassel inflorescences with initially similar morphology but finally different architecture and sexuality. The detailed regulatory mechanisms underlying these changes still remain largely clear. In this study, through analyzing the time-course meristem transcriptomes and floret single-cell transcriptomes of ear and tassel we revealed the regulatory dynamics and pathways underlying inflorescence development and sex differentiation. Our study provides a deep understanding of the regulatory mechanisms underlying inflorescence development and sex differentiation in maize, laying the foundation to identify new regulators and pathways for maize hybrid breeding and improvement.

Project description:fasciated ear4 (fea4) is a semi-dwarfed mutant with fasciated ears and tassels, and greatly enlarged vegetative and inflorescence meristems. Chromatin Immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq) and expression profiling by RNA-seq suggest that fea4 is required to regulate the auxin response and leaf differentiation programs in the periphery of the meristem, suggesting a new mechanism of meristem size regulation that is spatially and mechanistically distinct from the CLV-WUS model. To gain insight into transcriptional regulation by FEA4, we used RNA-seq to profile genome-wide expression changes in developing ear primordia of fea4 loss-of-function mutants compared to fea4/+ wild-type (wt) siblings. To map genome-wide occupancy of FEA4 and define its putative transcriptional targets, we performed ChIP-seq using the pFEA4-YFP::FEA4 transgenic lines.

Project description:In this study we used the maize (Zea mays) inflorescence to investigate gene networks that modulate determinacy, specifically the decision to allow branch growth. We characterized developmental transitions by associating spatiotemporal expression profiles with morphological changes resulting from genetic perturbations that disrupt steps in a pathway controlling branching. These are the RNA-seq datasets used in this study. We profiled changes in gene expression during normal maize ear and tassel development and in developing maize ear primordia upon genetic perturbation of the RAMOSA branching pathway. For the wild-type ear and tassel developmental series, greenhouse-grown B73 inbred plants were used. 10mm ears were collected and sectioned as follows from tip to base along the developmental gradient: tip 1mm sampled (tip; Inflorescence Meristem/Spikelet Pair Meristem), next 1mm discarded, next 1mm sampled (mid; Spikelet Meristem), next 2mm discarded, next 2 mm sampled (base; Floral Meristem), and immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen. Sections from ~30 sampled ears were pooled for each of 2 biological replicates to represent tip, mid, and base stages. Tassels were hand-dissected, measured, separated by stage: 1-2mm (stg1), 3-4mm (stg2), and 5-7mm (stg3), and immediately frozen in liquid N. For each stage, ~20-30 tassels were pooled for each of 2 biological replicates. For ramosa mutant series, segregating families (1:1) of ra1-R, ra2-R, and ra3-fea1 mutant alleles, all introgressed at least 6 times into the B73 inbred background, were grown at CSHL Uplands Farm. Field-grown plants were genotyped and collected 6-7 weeks after germination (V7-V8 stage). First and second ear primordia were immediately hand-dissected, measured, and frozen in liquid nitrogen. For ra1, ra2 and ra3 mutants and wild-type controls, ears were pooled into two size classes: 1) 1mm class included a range of 0.7-1.5mm sized ears and nine ears were pooled for each of 2 biological replicates; 2) 2mm class included a range of 1.8-2.5mm sized ears and six ears were pooled for each of three biological replicates. Wild-type samples were proportional mixtures of heterozygote siblings segregating in ra1, ra2, and ra3 populations. Variability factors (e.g. ear size within class, ear rank on the plant, and time of collection) were distributed evenly across pooled samples.

Project description:Inflorescence architecture contributes to essential plant traits. It determines plant shape, contributing to morphological diversity, also determines position and number of the flowers and fruits produced by the plant, influencing seed yield. Most legumes have compound inflorescences, where flowers are produced in secondary inflorescences (I2), formed at the flanks of the main primary inflorescence (I1), in contrast to simple inflorescences of plants like Arabidopsis, in which flowers are directly formed on the I1. The pea VEGETATIVE1/ FULc (VEG1) gene, and its homologues in other legumes, specify the formation of the I2 meristem, a function apparently restricted to legumes. To understand the control of I2 development it is important to identify the genes working downstream of VEG1. In this study, we adopted a novel strategy to identify genes expressed in the I2 meristem, as potential regulatory targets of VEG1. To identify pea I2-meristem genes we compared the transcriptomes of inflorescence apices from wild type and mutants affected in I2 development, proliferating inflorescence meristems (pim - with more I2 meristems), veg1 and vegetative2 (both without I2 meristems). Analysis of the differentially expressed genes using Arabidopsis genome databases combined with RT-qPCR expression analysis in pea, allowed the selection of genes expressed in the pea inflorescence apex. In situ hybridization of four of these genes showed that all four genes are expressed in the I2 meristem, proving our approach to identify I2-meristem genes successful. Finally, analysis by VIGS in pea identified one gene, PsDAO1, whose silencing lead to small plants and another gene, PsHUP54, whose silencing leads to plants with very large stubs, meaning that this gene controls activity of the I2 meristem. PsHUP54-VIGS plants also are large and, more importantly, produce large pods with almost double of seeds than the control. Our study shows a new useful strategy to isolate I2-meristem genes and identifies a novel gene, PsHUP54, which seems a promising tool to improve yield in pea and another legumes.

Project description:Although the pattern of lateral organ formation from apical meristems establishes species-specific plant architecture, the positional information that confers cell fate to cells as they transit to the meristem flanks where they differentiate, remains largely unknown. We have combined fluorescence-activated cell sorting and RNA-seq to characterise the cell-type-specific transcriptome at the earliest developmental time-point of lateral organ formation using DORNRÖSCHEN-LIKE::GFP to mark founder-cell populations at the periphery of the inflorescence meristem (IM) in apetala1 cauliflower double mutants, which overproliferate IMs. Within these founder-cells, floral primordium identity genes are upregulated and stem-cell identity markers are downregulated. The transcriptional network of differentially expressed genes supports the hypothesis that lateral organ founder-cell specification involves the creation of polarity from the centre to the periphery of the IM and the establishment of a boundary from surrounding cells, consistent with bract initiation. In contrast to the established paradigm that sites of auxin response maxima pre-pattern lateral organ initiation in the IM, only subtle transcriptional reprogramming within the global auxin network was observed, suggesting that auxin response might play a minor role in the earliest stages of lateral floral initiation.

Project description:Inflorescence architecture in cereal crops directly impacts yield potential through regulation of seed number and harvesting ability. Extensive architectural diversity found in inflorescences of grass species is due to spatial and temporal activity and determinacy of meristems, which control the number and arrangement of branches and flowers, and underlie plasticity. Timing of the floral transition is also intimately associated with inflorescence development and architecture. Here, we show that a single mutation in a gene encoding an AP1 A-class MADS-box transcription factor significantly delays flowering time and disrupts multiple levels of meristem determinacy in panicles of the C4 model panicoid grass, Setaria viridis.

Project description:Transformation of the Arabidopsis ATHB17 gene into maize results in the expression of a truncated protein (smaller by 113 amino acids) that functions as a dominant-negative regulator that can modify activity of endogenous maize HD-Zip II transcription factors. This RNASeq experiment indicates that the observed effects of ATHB17d113 on the maize ear inflorescence and ear transcriptome are very small. Expression of ATHB17delta113 protein in maize leads to changes in ear growth resulting in increased ear size at early reproductive stages and, potentially increased sink size. Two ATHB17delta113 expressing events (Event 1 and Event 2) were compared to control plants (herein referred to as WT) in the context of Monsanto Elite Maize hybrid line NN6306. Three bioreps of both Ear inflorescence and Ear tissues were sampled for the WT and each of the two transgenic events.
