Genome-wide analysis of the grapevine stilbene synthase multigenic family: genomic organization and expression profiles upon biotic and abiotic stresses

ABSTRACT: In this study a complete characterization of the STS multigenic family in grapevine has been performed, commencing with the identification, annotation and phylogenetic analysis of all members and integration of this information with a comprehensive set of gene expression analyses including healthy tissues at differential developmental stages and in leaves exposed to both biotic (downy mildew infection) and abiotic (wounding and UV-C exposure) stresses. At least thirty-three full length sequences encoding VvSTS genes were identified, which, based on predicted amino acid sequences, cluster in 3 principal subgroups designated A, B and C. The majority of VvSTS genes cluster in subgroups B and C and are located on chr16 whereas the few gene family members in subgroup A are found on chr10. Microarray and mRNA-seq expression analyses revealed different patterns of transcript accumulation between the different groups of VvSTS family members and between VvSTSs and VvCHSs. Indeed, under certain conditions the transcriptional response of VvSTS and VvCHS genes appears to be diametrically opposed suggesting that flow of carbon between these two competing metabolic pathways is tightly regulated at the transcriptional level. Examination of transcriptome profile in Vitis vinifera cv Pinot noir leaf discs pools trated upon biotic and abiotic stresses. 7 samples examined: Control (=wounded 0h), wounded 24h, wounded 48h, UV-C treated 24h, UV-C treated 48h, Plasmopara viticola infected 24h, Plasmopara viticola infected 48h.

<h4>Background</h4>Plant stilbenes are a small group of phenylpropanoids, which have been detected in at least 72 unrelated plant species and accumulate in response to biotic and abiotic stresses such as infection, wounding, UV-C exposure and treatment with chemicals. Stilbenes are formed via the phenylalanine/polymalonate-route, the last step of which is catalyzed by the enzyme stilbene synthase (STS), a type III polyketide synthase (PKS). Stilbene synthases are closely related to chalcone synt ...[more]

Project description:Purpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized systems-based analysis of cellular pathways. The goals of this study are to compare NGS-derived flower development transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) of two subspecies Methods: Flower mRNA profiles of wild-type (WT) four developmental stages and the same stages of Vitis vinifera subp vinifera were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina. Initial quality assessment was based on data passing the Illumina Chastity filtering. Subsequently, reads containing adapters and/or PhiX control signal were removed using an in-house filtering protocol. The second quality assessment was based on the remaining reads using the FASTQC quality control tool version 0.10.0. qRT–PCR validation was performed using EvaGreen assays. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped about 13 to 19 million sequence reads per Vitis sample, 50 bp in length equivalent to 1.5 Gb of total sequence data by each sample. The exception was male stage G (M_G) were only 7 to 8 million sequence reads were obtained. Five genes (VvTFL1, VvLFY, VvAP1, Vv AP3, VvPI), related to flowering development, were used to validate RNA-Seq data and to test for data reproducibility through qRT–PCR. The coefficient of correlation (r) obtained between the log2 of RPKM (RNA-Seq) versus log2 of mRNA average number (RT-qPCR), varied from ≈ 0.97 (VvTLF) to ≈ 0.73 (VvPI) indicating a good correlation between both techniques and thus validating our RNA-Seq results. Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed transcriptome analysis of four Vitis flower developmental stages, with the same individual, in three genders, generated by RNA-seq technology. The optimized data analysis workflows reported here should provide a framework for comparative investigations of expression profiles. Our results show that NGS offers a comprehensive and accurate quantitative and qualitative evaluation of mRNA contentper developmental stage. We conclude that RNA-seq based transcriptome characterization would expedite genetic network analyses and permit the dissection of complex biologic functions. Flowering mRNA profiles of four developmental stages of Vitis wild type (WT) and the domesticated Vitis were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina HiSeq 2500.

Project description:Noble rot results from atypical infections of ripe grape berries by Botrytis cinerea. Unlike bunch rot, noble rot promotes favorable changes in grape berries and accumulation of secondary metabolites that enhance wine grape quality. Noble rot-infected berries of SÃ©millon, a white-skinned variety, were collected over three years from a commercial vineyard at the same time fruit were harvested for botrytized wine production. Transcriptomic and metabolomic data were integrated to identify pathways associated with distinct stages of noble rot. Botrytis induced the expression of known key regulators of pathways in secondary metabolism associated with berry ripening. The activation by Botrytis during noble rot of metabolic pathways associated with berry ripening was further supported by comparisons with transcriptomes of red-skinned varieties at vÃ©raison. A prominent and common outcome of noble rot and berry ripening was the enhancement of the phenylpropanoid metabolism. Induced synthesis of stilbenes, flavonoids, and anthocyanins was supported by both transcriptional and metabolite analyses. Enzyme assays and targeted gene expression analyses of samples from the three distinct years confirmed that the activation of central and peripheral phenylpropanoid pathways is a consistent hallmark of noble rot. Finally, we show that the impact of noble rot on grape metabolism is still detectable in botrytized wines. These results demonstrate that despite the late stage of terminal senescence of a plant organ, a biotic stress can cause a major reprogramming of plant metabolism leading, in case of noble rot, to the synthesis of important metabolites for grape berry flavor and aroma. The experimental design consists of 4 treatments, berries at 3 distinct stages of noble rot and berries without apparent symptoms of infection. From each treatment a total of 4 biological replicates were sequenced with RNAseq, each replicate corresponded to independent pools of 10-15 berries harvested from adjacent grapevines.
