ABSTRACT: Transcription profiling by array of 30-day old detached grape leaves exposed to ultraviolet C radiation for 6 or 12 hours against unexposed controls
Project description:Solar ultraviolet C(UV-C)radiation reaching the Earth’s surface is little due to the filtering effects of the stratospheric ozone layer. At present, artificial UV-C irradiation is utilized for different biological processes. Grape is a major fruit crop around the world. Research has shown that UV-C irradiation induced the biosynthesis of phenols. However, changes at the molecular level in response to UV-C and leading to these effects are poorly understood. To elucidate the effect of UV-C on expression of genes in grape and the response mechanism, transcript abundance of grape (Vitis vinifera L.) leaves was quantified using the Affymetrix Grape Genome oligonucleotide microarray (15,700 transcripts) Grape leaves were exposed to UV-C irradiation at 6W/m2 for 10 min. LCK-0-1, LCK-0-2 and LCK-0-3 are 0 h after the initiation of treatment and as the controls; LTR-6-1, LTR-6-2 and LTR-6-3 are for 6 h after the initiation of treatment; LTR-12-1, LTR-12-2 and LTR-12-3 are for 12 h after the initiation of treatment. Three replicates for each time point. 9 samples in all.
Project description:In this study, integrated transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics approaches were applied to investigate the molecular responses of O3 in the leaves of two-weeks old rice (cv. Nipponbare) seedlings exposed to 0.2 ppm O3 for a period of 24 h. Based on the morphological alteration of O3-exposed rice leaves, transcript profiling of rice genes was performed in leaves exposed for 1, 12 and 24 h using rice DNA microarray chip, proteomics and metabolomics. This systematic survey showed that O3 triggers a chain reaction of altered gene, protein and metabolite expressions involved in multiple cellular processes in rice. Also investigated were the molecular responses in the leaves of two-weeks old rice (cv. Nipponbare) seedlings under continuous light and pure air (as a positive control for ozone exposure experiments) for a period of 24 h. Transcript profiling of rice genes was performed in leaves exposed for 1, 12 and 24 h using rice DNA microarray chip, proteomics and metabolomics. This systematic survey showed that continuous light and growth for 24 h also triggers a chain reaction of altered gene expressions involved in multiple cellular processes in rice, but different from those against ozone, in general.

Project description:cea13-01_oxi1 - oxi1 transcriptome - Transcriptomic analysis on the effect of oxi1 mutation under high light stress? - 5 weeks old mutannt (M) and wild type (WT) plants were exposed to high light and low temperature (1300-1350 µmol photons m-2s-1, 7°C/14°C day/night and 380ppm CO2) for 25 hours. ~100 mg fresh weight leaves were harvested, and total RNA prepared from them. For control experiments, leaves were harvested directly from the phytotron (No light stress). Three microarray comparisons were made: Mcontrol/WTcontrol, Mstress/WTstress and Mstress/Mcontrol . For each comparison, 2 biological replicates are performed.
Project description:Plant roots located in the upper soil layers are prone to experience high temperatures. To gain insight into the effect of high temperature on root development and functioning, we exposed five-day-old Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings grown on agar plates to 30 °C for 48 hours, and compared the gene expression profile in the root tip with that from seedlings that remained at 22 °C.
Project description:Seven-day-old white-light-grown Arabidopsis seedlings were exposed for 15 minutes to polychromatic radiation with decreasing short-wave cut-off in the UV range, transferred back to the standard growth chamber and samples were taken 1 and 6 hours after the start of irradiation.
Project description:Microarray technology was used to assess transcriptome changes in poplar (Populus alba L.) under a realistic simulation of increased UV-B radiation. Plants were UV-Bbe (UV-B biologically effective radiation) supplemented with a dose of 6 kJ/m2/day for 12 hours per day and allowed to recover during the night. Poplar plants were UV-B treated using a refined controlled environment able to guarantee a realistic simulation of natural conditions, especially for light parameters such as presence of background UV-B radiation for control plants and balanced PAR/UV-A/UV-B ratio. A time course experiment was planned to look both at the rapid and delayed response of poplar to UVB; two time points after 3 h (T3h) and 30 h (6th hour of the third day of treatment, T30h) were considered. 4 independent biological replicates were analysed for each time point. Competitive hybridisations were carried out using the PICME 28K microarray. Keywords: Time course experiment, stress response
Project description:Compared analysis of the transcriptomes of 12-day old seedlings from wild type Col-0 treated with NO for 15, 30 and 60 min vs untreated control seedlings. Samples were harvested 12 h after dawn of day 12 after sowing and seedlings were grown under long days (16 h light / 8 h darkness) photoperiodic conditions.
Project description:0.5 mM SA plus 0.02% Silwet or 0.02% Silwet (control) was sprayed on leaves of 3.5 week old Arabidopsis plants. Samples were harvested at 0 (prior to treatment) , 3, 6, 12, and 24 hours post treatment. A subset of these samples were processed.
