ABSTRACT: This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE36224: Comparison of transcript abundance in aerial mycelium of the Magnaporthe oryzae TRA1-deleted mutant and its parental strain GSE36225: Comparison of transcript abundance in ungerminated spores of the Magnaporthe oryzae TRA1-deleted mutant and its parental strain Refer to individual Series
Project description:In order to understand the function of the Tra1p transcription factor we identified potentially Tra1p-regulated genes by comparison of transcript abundance in aerial mycelium of the tra1- mutant and the parental strain 70-15. Two-condition experiment, wild-type vs. TRA1-deleted mutant. 4 biological replicates with dye-swaps. Each microarry slide had 2 arrays with 44k spots (22k spots printed twice). Thus, rep1 and rep2 are technical replicates of the same biological sample (derived from one raw data file).
Project description:Genes potentially regulated by the Flb3p transcription factor were identified by microarray-based transcriptome analysis of the flb3- mutant and the parental strain 70-15. Two-condition experiment, wild-type vs. FLB3-deleted mutant. 3 biological replicates with dye-swaps
Project description:Genes potentially regulated by the Flb4p transcription factor were identified by microarray-based transcriptome analysis of the flb4- mutant and the parental strain 70-15. Two-condition experiment, wild-type vs. FLB4-deleted mutant. 6 biological replicates with dye-swaps
Project description:In order to understand the function of the Tra1p transcription factor we identified potentially Tra1p-regulated genes by comparison of transcript abundance in conidia of the tra1- mutant and the parental strain 70-15. Two-condition experiment, wild-type vs. mutant. 3 biological replicates
Project description:The rice blast disease caused by Magnaporthe oryzae (M.oryzae) is one of the most important disease in cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) results in extensive loss of productivity worldwide. Therefore, here we utilized the label-free quantitative proteomic approach to identify the novel M. oryzae effectors. A total of 114 were significantly modulated M. oryzae proteins derived from infected rice leaves. Among them, twenty-nine proteins were predicted as secreted proteins by SignalP 4.0. In addition, functional annotation proteins revealed that five proteins were mainly associated with hydrolase family. Consequently, five putative effector genes were cloned into a plant expression vector and fused with MYC tag in the C-terminal. Finally, we found that three in-planta M.oryzae hydrolase proteins were induced cell death after Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transient expression in Nicotiana benthamiana (N.benthamiana). MGP1 (endo-1,4-beta-xylanase) and MGP4 (cellulose-binding protein) were localized in extracellular. Otherwise, MGP5 (cutinase) localized in intracellular space induced cell death. Thus, our results suggest that in-planta M. oryzae hydrolase proteins may play a key role in innate immunity via PAMP (Pathogen-Associated Molecular Pattern) in rice.
Project description:The rice blast disease, caused by Magnaporthe oryzae , devastates cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.), resulting in extensive global crop loss. We employed a label-free quantitative proteomics approach to discover novel proteins associated with M. oryzae pathogenicity and rice defense. We identified 990 significantly modulated proteins in rice leaves including various pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) and pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins that were induced in response to M. oryzae inoculation. Additionally, 123 M. oryzae proteins were also identified and screened for their cell death-inducing activity by an in-silico approach. Among these, we found a novel protein MoXYL1 (endo-1,4-beta-xylanase) protein, which induces cell death in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves. Transgenic rice plants (PDUF26::MoXYL1) expressing MoXYL1 derived by rice domain of unknown function protein 26 (DUF26) promoter exhibited resistance against the M. oryzae and Cochliobolus miyabeanus and enhanced expression of pathogen-responsive genes and hormone-related genes. Furthermore, the application of data-independent acquisition (DIA) mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics on these transgenic rice plants revealed 1,833 significantly modulated proteins in response to M. oryzae, with 219 and 410 proteins responsive to MoXYL1 and M. oryzae, respectively. Based on these results, we propose a signaling network model induced by MoXYL1 and M. oryzae. In summary, our findings highlight the crucial role of MoXYL1 in rice innate immunity against M. oryzae and its potential to enhance rice disease resistance.
Project description:High-throughput sequencing of small RNAs from rice was used to identify distinct miRNAs that are responsive to elicitors from the fungal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae. [Expression profiling by array] We used microarrays to determine the expression behaviour of target genes for elicitor-regulated miRNAs. [High throughput sequencing] High-throughput sequencing of rice small RNAs was performed in two different tissues, leaves and roots, and two different time point of elicitor treatment, 30' and 2h Amplicons were prepared by 5M-BM-4and 3M-BM-4adaptor ligation in which the 5'-adaptor contained a 'barcode' consisting of a 4-nucleotide identifier sequence for each sample. The libraries containing unique barcodes were combined and subjected to pyrosequencing (454 Life SciencesTM, Roche) [Expression profiling by array] Leaves from rice plants were harvested at two time points after the onset of treatment (30' and 2h) with elicitors of Magnaporthe oryzae 18.1 and used for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Mock inoculations were performed with sterile water for control experiments. Three biological replicates were analyzed. Each sample represented a pool of approximately 150 rice plants. [High throughput sequencing] 8 samples examined: leaves and roots, treated or not with elicitors at two different time points, 30' and 2h (2x2x2)
Project description:We performed RNA-Seq of leaves of Oryza sativa L. ssp. japonica cv. Nipponbare 48 hours after inoculation with Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae strain PXO99A heterologously expressing the Tal2a effector, the designer TAL effector dT280 which targets a sequence overlapping the predicted Tal2a binding sequence in UCH, or the Tal11b effector. Results provide insight into the genes differentially regulated in a Tal2a- and dT280-specific manner. Examination of mRNA levels in Oryza sativa L. ssp. japonica cv.
