Comparative gene expression profiles on contrasting mealy phenotypes in peach fruits reveal candidate genes associated with fruit quality

ABSTRACT: Storage at low temperatures is one of the most used methods to prolong the life of postharvest peaches (Prunus persica (L) Batch.). However, fruit quality is adversely affected by the development of woolliness, a physiological disorder that is apparent when the fruit is ripened after prolonged periods of cold storage and is mainly manifested as loss of juice in the peaches. The aim of this study was to obtain a more detailed cohort of genes that underlie the wolliness in a segregating population with contrasting phenotypes of mealiness after being exposed to cold storage at 4 °C. For this, a transcriptomics approach was applied to fruits from a progeny of individuals accounted for 6% more juicy and woolly 6% over a 2 years. Our results suggest that not only genes related to the maintenance of cell wall architecture may contribute to the development of mealy phenotype. Based on its possible physiological process and differential pattern of expression transcriptomic profiles show that genes related to maintenance (modification I) and membrane fluidity account for the differences between fruits that exhibit contrasting phenotypes of mealiness. These genes may contribute to tolerance to cold during storage. We analyzed a total of 9 woolly fruits (from 3 different trees, 3 fruits from each tree) and 12 juicy fruits (from 4 different trees, 3 fruits from each tree). An RNA pool from 9 woolly fruits was used as reference and was compared to an RNA pool of 3 juicy fruits from each individual tree. Two technical replicates were done for each comparison, thus making in total 8 hybridizations.

Direct measurement of heritable gene expression within single individuals from wild populations.

Project description:Heritable variation in gene expression has been largely studied in model organisms by taking advantage of pure and inbred lines. Comparative studies on organisms with contrasting evolutionary history, population size and genome architecture have been hindered by practical considerations, as many of these species are poorly suited for breeding. We have developed a method for determining expression variation in an undomesticated tree species by directly measuring the segregation of gene expression in the haploid meiotic products of a single diploid individual. We show the utility of our approach by identifying expression variation that segregates consistent with one causal variant and identify an unexpectedly large number of these Mendelian expression traits. The megagametophyte approach opens the doors for the application of genetical genomics approaches in a large number of undomesticated plant species. Transcriptomics data from 18 megagametophytes of two unrelated mother trees. In tree 80112, all of the 18 megagametophytes were analyzed on to different microarrays with two different dyes. In tree 77111, 16 megagametophytes were replicated as above.

Identification of candidate genes affecting juvenile wood density in Pinus radiata

Project description:Wood density is a foundamental quality trait for structural timber, bioenergy and pulp industries. We investigated genes differentially transcribed in radiate pine juvneile trees with distinct wood density using cDNA microarrays. Radiata pine trees were selected from a progeny trial planted at Flynn, Australia. Based on the gravitical measurement of wood cores, 12 families with highest and lowest density each were selected, representing two groups of trees with contrasting wood density. One individual with higher or lower density were further sampled in each selected family. Developing xylem tissues of selected trees were sampled in autumn (April) when latewood (LW) was formed. The xylem tissues were scraped at breast height with a sharp chisel after the bark was removed. Wood cores of the sampled trees were further measured using SilviScan 2. Total RNA extracted from ten developing xylem tissues with confirmed distinct density in each tree group were pooled into two bulks (five trees each), and the two bulks of HD were compared with two LD bulks in the microarray experiment (named the bulk experiment). Six developing xylem tissues with the most distinct density from each tree group were further chosen. Six xylem tissues with HD were individually compared with bulked six xylem tissues with LD in the second microarray experiment (named individual experiment). These two different pooling strategies can partly minimize the genetic variation among different genotypes. Dye swaps were applied in each biological replicate.

Transcription profiling of P.euphratica leaf RNA samples from trees growing from four different areas in the desert valley Ein Avdat with contrasting growth conditions (drought)

Project description:We are studying the tree P. euphratica growing in its natural habitat in the Negev desert in Israel. We have used leaf RNA samples from trees growing from four different areas in the desert valley Ein Avdat with contrasting growth conditions, with the primary factor being how much water the trees have access to. Area A trees grow close to a stream. Area B trees are further away from the stream. Area C trees are growing on a slope with no water. Parking place trees grow at a parking place (1km from Area A, B and C) where there is a water irrigation system, and these trees are regularly watered once a week. The control sample in each hybridization is always RNA isolated from a pool of 5 trees from the parking place. The hybridizations are comparing the following: Area A -- parking place Area B -- parking place Area C -- parking place Each hybridization is done with a dye swap and three different biological repeats for a total of 18 hybridizations.

Expression data from postharvest Ponkan (Citrus reticulata Blanco) fruit under cold storage

Project description:Low temperature storage of citrus fruits are susceptible to chilling disorder symptoms that impact fruit quality. Understanding the molecular frame underlying the cold storage process will provide a basic guidance for practical control. We used Affymetrix Citrus GeneChip to examine the transcriptional changes in cold-stored Citrus reticulata Blanco cv. âPonkanâ pulp tissue for three successive months. Ponkan postharvest fruits were under cold storage for three successive months. The pulp tissue was used for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix Citrus Genome microarrays.

Transcription profiling of tomato - suberization of fruit stem scar tissue

Project description:Mature green fruits of the tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) cultivar MicroTom were investigated (fruit developmental category II). After harvest, fruits were immediately utilized or stored in darkness at 25 C until further processing. After 0, 1, 2 or 4 days of storage stem scar tissues of tomato fruits were excised with a scalpel to a depth of approximately 2 mm, immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80 C until use.

A natural expression variant reveals a novel mechanism of insect resistance in boreal forest trees.

Project description:We report the discovery of a beta-glucosidase gene (PgM-NM-2glu-1) whose expression underpins natural resistance to a major forest pest, the spruce budworm (SBW) in white spruce (Picea glauca (Voss.) Moench). We performed a microarray experiment to compare resistant (R) and non-resistant (N-R) trees. PgM-NM-2glu-1 transcripts levels uniquely were up to 1000 times higher in phenotypically resistant trees and correlated with accumulation of acetophenones compounds that reduce SBW development. These resistance traits were heritable, temporally correlated with the emergence of the most damaging larval stages and were highly variable in the natural population across a large geographic area. The recombinant gene product specifically catalyzed the release of biologically active acetophenones from their glucoside precursors. SBW outbreaks have become more frequent and intense; therefore, the phenotypic diversity resulting from variation in PgM-NM-2glu-1 expression may be a key for the adaptability of spruce populations. Transcriptome profiling was carried out with needles from 7 resistant and 7 non-resistant trees (harvested on June 17th, 2010), and 3 samples per tree (n=42) with a custom microarray developed for spruce species and comprising oligonucleotide probes for 23,853 unique P. glauca gene sequences (Raherison et al., 2012).
