Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Arabidopsis far-red light pulse treated seeds comparing luh mutant with wild type (Col-0). Seeds were imbibed within 1 hr under white light and treated far-red light pulse for 5 min followed by 12 hr dark incubation. Goal was to determine the effects of LUH as transcriptional co-regulator during seed germination process.
Project description:The goal of this study was to compare the transcriptional profile (RNA-seq) of imbibed Arabidopsis thaliana Columbia-0 ecotype seeds that were treated with a 20 min red or far red pulse. The red-light pulse induces germination.
Project description:This RNA-seq was designed to help gain understanding on the genetic program behind phytochrome developmental time dependent control of leaf 3 (L3) cell proliferation and expansion phases, to ultimately regulate organ growth. Briefly, Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 plants were grown under a light : dark (LD) 12 h : 12 h photoperiod, at a 100 µmoles/m2/s fluence rate and 21 °C of constant temperature. Plants were then exposed to either daily End of Day (EoD) far-red (FR, 40µmoles/m2/s of FR light (730nm) for 10 minutes) from day 6 and harvested L3 primordia or blade tissue at days 13, 16 and 20, or EoD FR from day 18, sampling at day 20. Plant kept under white light (WL) conditions were used as controls.
Project description:Low reduced red:far-red ratio [R:FR] signaling through phytochromes induces shade avoidance responses, including petiole elongation. Jasmonic acid-mediated defense against herbivores and pathogens is inhibited under these conditions. Using microarrays we studied the crosstalk between low R:FR and JA at the global gene expression level in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Project description:Phytochromes mediate a profound developmental shift when dark-grown seedlings are exposed to light. Here we show that a subset of genes is up regulated in phytochrome B (phyB) mutants even before dark-grown seedlings are exposed to light. Most of these genes bear the RY cis motif, which is a binding site of the transcription factor ABSCISIC ACID INSENSITIVE 3 (ABI3), and the phyB mutation also enhanced ABI3 expression. These changes in transcriptome have physiological consequences as seedlings of the abi3 mutant showed enhanced responses to pulses of far-red light, while ABI3 overexpressers exhibited the opposite pattern. Seedlings of the wild type derived from seeds germinated in full darkness showed enhanced expression of genes bearing the RY cis motif and reduced responses to far-red light. We propose that, via changes in ABI3 expression, light, perceived mainly by phyB in the seed, generates a downstream trans-developmental phase signal that pre-conditions the seedling to its most likely environment. Keywords: Arabidopsis, photoreceptors, light signal transduction, environmental responses
