Xyleme-Molecular bases of acclimation and adaptation to water deficit in poplar.

ABSTRACT: affy_popsec_orleans_poplar - xyleme - This project aims to identify candidate genes for water deficit acclimation and/or adaptation in a tree species: poplar. Due to compelling evidence that transcriptional regulation plays a major role in regulating many biological processes, we will look for genes and gene expression networks related to drought stress. We intend to analyse the transcriptome in two poplar genotypes of contrasted tolerance to water deficit, at various stages and intensities of stress and simultaneously in whole xylem and cambial zone from young trees. The co-analysis of two genotypes of contrasted tolerance to water deficit should allow to better discriminating genes presenting a potential adaptative character from genes responding passively to the constraint. The consideration of both whole xylem and cambial zone will enable us to discriminate between regulations events originating from very young xylem cells undergoing their first steps of xylem differentiation (cambial zone) compared to whole xylem sample enriched in more differentiated xylem cells and parenchyma ray cells.-Two poplar clones, named Soligo (S) and Carpaccio (C) were submitted to 4 treatments: non-stressed control, severe-drought stress, mild-drought stress and early-drought stress. Two pools of 2 or 3 trees were considered as biological replicates. Two different samples were collected on each individual tree: whole stem xylem (X) and cambial zone plus very young expanding xylem (Y). Total RNAs were extracted from each tree and assemble in pool of 3 or 2 individuals using equimolar ratio for each X and for Y. One affymetrix slide corresponds to one pooled RNA sample (X or Y). A total number of slides : 4 treatments x 2 clones x 2 tissues x 2 biological replicates (pool) = 32 slides, will be done.

Project description:affy_rnai_cadpoplar - affy_rnai_cadpoplars - This experiment aims to characterize global gene expression in young xylem of transgenic RNAi-CAD poplars in comparison to WT poplars. Cinnamyl Alcohol Dehydrogenase (CAD) is the final enzyme involved in the monolignol biosynthesis pathway. Transgenic poplars were produced using RNAi strategy (pHellsgate 8 vector, Helliwell and Waterhouse, 2003) and exhibited the expected phenotype (red xylem, reduced CAD activity).Biological question (15 lines max):This experiment aims to characterize global gene expression in young xylem of transgenic RNAi-CAD poplars in comparison to WT poplars. Cinnamyl AlcoholDehydrogenase (CAD) is the final enzyme involved in the monolignol biosynthesispathway.Transgenic poplars were produced using RNAi strategy (pHellsgate 8 vector, Helliwell and Waterhouse, 2003) and exhibited the expectedphenotype (red xylem, reduced CAD activity). -RNAi-CAD transgenic poplars were produced using hairpin RNAi strategy (pHellsgate 8 vector, Helliwell and Waterhouse, 2003). For this transcriptome anaylsis, 2 independent transgenic lines (named pHG8-CAD2 and pHG8-CAD19) from the same transformation procedure were used as biological repeats. Four-month-old poplar plants were inclined at 30° in the greenhouse and sampled after 26 days. Young differentiating xylem originating from the lower side of stems - opposite wood - (ODX) was sampled on each individual tree by scrapping slightly the debarked stem with a scalpel. Samples were immediately flash frozen in liquid nitrogen, ground with mortar and pestle, and total RNAs were extracted from fine ground powder using the QIAGEN miRNeasy kit according to the manufacturer. One Affymetrix slide corresponds to a pool of RNA samples from 2-4 individual trees (WT, RNAi-CAD transgenic lines 2 and 19). Total number of slides = 2 genotypes (WT/RNAi line) x 1 tissue x 2 biological replicates = 4 slides were done. 4 arrays - poplar; normal vs rnai mutant comparaison
