Project description:Given that PLTs are key transcription factors in meristems, we hypothesized that loss of activity fails to confer meristematic properties or 'stemness' to the first embryonic cells, leading to developmental arrest. We asked to what degree downstream PLT targets in meristems overlap with those in early embryos. We selected direct PLT target genes by overlaying existing PLT ChIP-seq and DAP-seq datasets. We extended this set with an additional PLT3-DAP experiment on young roots, because previous PLT-DAP data have only low read counts and used leaf material in which PLTs are typically not strongly expressed.

Project description:Plants are dependent on divisions of stem cells to establish cell lineages required for growth. During embryogenesis, early division products are considered to be stem cells, whereas during post-embryonic development, stem cells are present in meristems at the root and shoot apex. PLETHORA/AINTEGUMENTA-LIKE (PLT/AIL) transcription factors are regulators of post-embryonic meristem function and are required to maintain stem cell pools. Despite the parallels between embryonic and post-embryonic stem cells, the role of PLTs during early embryogenesis has not been thoroughly investigated. Here, we demonstrate that the PLT regulome in the zygote, and apical and basal cells is in strong congruence with that of post-embryonic meristematic cells. We reveal that out of all six PLTs, only PLT2 and PLT4/BABY BOOM (BBM) are expressed in the zygote, and that these two factors are essential for progression of embryogenesis beyond the zygote stage and first divisions. Finally, we show that other PLTs can rescue plt2 bbm defects when expressed from the PLT2 and BBM promoters, establishing upstream regulation as a key factor in early embryogenesis. Our data indicate that generic PLT factors facilitate early embryo development in Arabidopsis by induction of meristematic potential.

Project description:The human embryo undergoes morphogenetic transformations following implantation into the uterus and yet our knowledge of this crucial stage is limited by the inability to observe the embryo in vivo. Here, we establish a stem cell-derived human post-implantation embryo model comprised of embryonic and extraembryonic tissues. Overexpression of the transcription factors GATA6 and SOX17 or GATA3 and AP2g in hESCs allowed us to generate hypoblast-like and trophoblast-like cells, respectively. We established conditions to combine these extraembryonic-like cells with wildtype embryonic stem cells and promote their self-organization into structures that mimic aspects of the post-implantation human embryo. These aggregates contain an inner pluripotent epiblast-like domain surrounded by both hypoblast- and trophoblast-like tissues. We show that this human embryo stem cell model robustly generates several cell types, including amnion-, extraembryonic mesenchyme- and primordial germ cell-like cells. Using perturbation experiments, we demonstrated that these populations arise in response to BMP signaling. This model also allowed us to identify an inhibitory role for SOX17 in the specification of anterior hypoblast-like cells. Modulation of the subpopulations in the hypoblast-like compartment demonstrated that these extraembryonic-like cells impact epiblast-like domain differentiation, highlighting functional tissue-tissue crosstalk. In conclusion, this modular, tractable model of the human embryo that includes both embryonic- and extraembryonic-like cells has the potential to probe key questions of human post-implantation development.

Project description:Wheat seed germination directly affects wheat yield and quality. The wheat grains mainly include embryo and endosperm, and both play important roles in seed germination, seedling survival and subsequent vegetative growth. ABA can positively regulate dormancy induction and then negatively regulates seed germination at low concentrations. H2O2 treatment with low concentration can promote seed germination of cereal plants. Although various transcriptomics and proteomics approaches have been used to investigate the seed germination mechanisms and response to various abiotic stresses in different plant species, an integrative transcriptome analysis of wheat embryo and endosperm response to ABA and H2O2 stresses has not reported so far. We used the elite Chinese bread wheat cultivar Zhenmai 9023 as material and performed the first comparative transcriptome microarray analysis between embryo and endosperm response to ABA and H2O2 treatments during seed germination using the GeneChip® Wheat Genome Array Wheat seed germination includes a great amount of regulated genes which belong to many functional groups. ABA/H2O2 can repress/promote seed germination through coordinated regulating related genes expression. Our results provide new insights into the transcriptional regulation mechanisms of embryo and endosperm response to ABA and H2O2 treatments during seed germination
