Transcriptional analysis for cell-cell communication during graft union development in Arabidopsis

ABSTRACT: Grafting is an ancient cloning method that has been used widely for thousands of years in agricultural practices. However, the molecular mechanisms for graft union development are still largely unknown. The developmental stage of graft union was characterized based on micrografting method. Microarray data revealed a signal exchange process between cells of scion and stock at 1dag, which reestablished the communication network in graft union. This process was concomitant with the cleaning of cell debris, and both of the processes were initiated by a wound-induced program. The results demonstrate the feasibility and potential power of investigating various plant developmental processes by this method and represent a primary and significant step in interpretation of the molecular mechanisms underlying graft union development. WT/WT seedling grafts of 22-26 hours after grafting were collected for microarray, intact WT seedlings and ungrafted scions and stocks were as control. All three types of sample, grafts (marked as A: whole graft), ungrafted scions and stocks (marked as B: mixture of ungrafted scions and stocks) and intact seedlings (marked as C: whole seedling), were collected at the same time of 22-26 hours after grafting. For sample B, scions and stocks were cut at the same time during grafting. For sample C, intact seedlings were also reserved during grafting. Data were firstly compared between sample A and C, differential expressed probe sets were than tested based on A and B to obtain graft-specific probes.

Grafting is an ancient cloning method that has been used widely for thousands of years in agricultural practices. Graft-union development is also an intricate process that involves substantial changes such as organ regeneration and genetic material exchange. However, the molecular mechanisms for graft-union development are still largely unknown. Here, a micrografting method that has been used widely in Arabidopsis was improved to adapt it a smooth procedure to facilitate sample analysis and to a ...[more]

Project description:Huanglongbing (HLB) is a worldwide devastating disease of citrus. There are no effective control measures for this newly emerging but century-old disease. A powerful oligonucleotide microarray of high-density 16S rRNA genes, the PhyloChip microarray, has been developed and effectively used to study bacterial diversity, especially from environmental samples. In this article, we aim to decipher the bacterial microbiome in HLB-affected citrus versus non-infected citrus as well as in citrus plants treated with ampicillin and gentamicin using PhyloChip-based metagenomics. The antibiotic treatments were conducted on the randomized complete block design with three replicates. For each replicate, 15 scions were treated in each antibiotic treatment (Amp and Gm) and control (CK1 and CK2). HLB-affected budsticks were sampled from severely HLB-affected field rough lemons (cv. Lemon #76) at the USDA-ARS-USHRL farm in Fort Pierce, FL and tested positive for Las by real-time qPCR. They were soaked in the antibiotic treatments; ampicillin sodium at a concentration of 1.0 g/L (Amp, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) or gentamicin sulfate at a concentration of 100 mg/L (Gm, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) and water as the diseased control (CK1), overnight in a fume hood under ventilation and lighting. Las-free budsticks, which tested negative by qPCR from healthy rough lemons, were also soaked in water as the healthy control (CK2). The budsticks were grafted onto two-year-old healthy grapefruit (Citrus paradisi 'Duncan') rootstocks and covered using plastic tape for three weeks. To improve scion growth, new flush from the rootstocks was removed after grafting and then allowed to grow. All experimental plants were grown in an insect-proof greenhouse. The first leaf samples from scions (rough lemon) and rootstocks (grapefruit) for DNA extraction were taken four months after inoculation, and second samplings were taken at six month after inoculation. The leaves were washed in tap water and then rinsed three times with sterile water. The midribs of the leaves were excised, frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored at -80M-BM-0C. The midribs of five leaves from each sample were pooled, and DNA was isolated for qPCR analysis for Las bacterium. DNA from the leaf midribs of scions for the PhyloChipT G3 analysis, which was extracted from all samples of the same treatment, was pooled in equal amounts and quantified by the PicoGreenM-BM-. method. The PhyloChipTM G3 analysis was conducted by Second Genome Inc. (San Francisco, CA).
