Root and shoot Jamonic Acid induction in Brassica oleraceae
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Brassica oleraceae plants were treated with jasmonic acid either at the roots or two leaves. An acidic (HCl) water sollution with the same pH as the jasmonic acid sollution was also applied to two leaves of the root jasmonic acid treated plants, and to the roots of leaf jasmonic acid treated plants. Control plants received a mock treatment on roots and leaves with acidic water of the same pH as the jasmonic acid sollution. The whole root system and two systemic leaves were harvested separately at 6, 18 and 30 h after treatment. For each time point, tissue and treatment, three biological replicates (except two replicates for 'Root-Cont-18h' sample) were made consisting of pooled tissue samples from 10 plants. Gene expression was analyzed in both tissues using the 29,000 element Arabidopsis Oligonucleotide Microarrays (Qiagen-Operon Arabidopsis Genome Array Ready Oligo Set version 3.0). Two treatments (root and leaf jasmonic acid) and control treatment. For each treatment, three biological replicates (except two replicates for 'Root-Cont-18h' sample) were taken of two tissues (roots and leaves). Samples were taken at three time points (6, 18 and 30 h). Single color hybridizations were performed, which lead to 53 slides in total.

Project description:Jasmonates is inductively produced as a major plant hormone responsible for defense reactions in plants against both biotic and abiotic stresses, such as pathogen infection and mechanical wounding. Jasmonoyl isoleucine is known to be a bioactive compound of jasmonate and plays a pivotal role for plant defenses. We identified OsJAR1M-bM-^HM-^Rrelated JA-inducible genes in osjar1 tos17 mutant (osjar1-2) rice leaves 0 - 2 h after JA treatment using 44k microarray. Expression profiling in the wild-type rice leaves treated with jasmonic acid for 0, 0.5, 1, and 2 h was compared with that in the osjar1 mutant leaves treated with jasmonic acid for 0, 0.5, 1, and 2 h using two-color method with three biological replicates.

Project description:Jasmonates is inductively produced as a major plant hormone responsible for defense reactions in plants against both biotic and abiotic stresses, such as pathogen infection and mechanical wounding. We identified JA-inducible genes in the wild-type rice leaves 0 - 4 h after JA treatment using 44k microarray. Expression profiling in the wild-type rice leaves treated with jasmonic acid for 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 h was compared with that in the untreated wild-type rice leaves using two-color method with three biological replicates.
Project description:As maize (Zea mays) plants undergo vegetative phase change from juvenile to adult, they both exhibit heteroblasty, an abrupt change in patterns of leaf morphogenesis, and gain the ability to produce flowers. Both processes are under the control of microRNA 156, whose levels decline at the end of the juvenile phase. Gain of ability to flower is conferred by expression of miR156 targets that encode Squamosa Promoter-Binding (SBP) transcription factors, which when derepressed in the adult phase induce the expression of MADS-box transcription factors that promote maturation and flowering. What gene expression differences underlie heteroblasty, as well as what regulates miR156 levels, remain open questions. Here, we compare gene expression in primordia that will develop into juvenile or adult leaves to identify genes that define these two developmental states and may influence vegetative phase change. In comparisons among successive leaves at the same developmental stage of plastochron 6, three-fourths of approximately 1,100 differentially expressed genes were more highly expressed in primordia of juvenile leaves. This juvenile set was enriched in photosynthetic genes, particularly those associated with cyclic electron flow at photosystem I, and in genes involved in oxidative stress and retrograde redox signaling. Pathogen- and herbivory-responsive pathways including jasmonic acid and salicylic acid were also up-regulated in juvenile primordia and indeed, exogenous application of jasmonic acid both delayed the appearance of adult traits and the decline of miR156 levels in maize seedlings. The successful amelioration of stress signals thus plays an important role in inducing vegetative phase change in maize. 12 untreated samples (8mm primordia of leaves 1-12) and 1 treated sample (leaf 5 primordium, 15mM JA treatment). 2 or more technical replicates per sample
Project description:The molecular details of local plant response against Xanthomonas translucens infection is largely unknown. Moreover, there is no knowledge about effects of the pathogen on the root’s transcriptome and proteome. Therefore, we investigated the global gene and protein expression changes both in leaves and roots of wheat (Triticum aestivum) 24h post leaf infection of X. translucens. This simultaneous analysis allowed us to obtain insight into possible metabolic rearrangements in above- and belowground tissues and to identify common responses as well as specific alterations. At the site of infection, we observed the implication of various components of the recognition, signaling, and amplification mechanisms in plant response to the pathogen. Moreover, data indicate a massive down-regulation of photosynthesis and confirm the chloroplast as crucial signaling hub during pathogen attack. Notably, roots responded as well to foliar attack and their response significantly differed from that locally triggered in infected leaves. Data indicate that roots as a site of energy production and synthesis of various secondary metabolites may actively influence the composition and colonisation level of root-associated microbes. Finally, our results emphasize the accumulation of jasmonic acid, pipecolic acid and/or the downstream mediator of hydrogen peroxide as long distal signals from infected leaves to roots.
Project description:The root-colonizing endophytic fungus Piriformospora indica promotes root and shoot growth of its host plants. We show that growth promotion of Arabidopsis leaves is abolished when the seedlings are grown on media with nitrogen (N) limitation. The fungus neither stimulated the total N content nor did it promote 15NO3- uptake from agar plates to the leaves of the host under N-sufficient or N-limiting conditions. However, when the roots were co-cultivated with 15N-labelled P. indica, more label can be detected in the leaves of N-starved host plants, but not of plants supplied with sufficient N. Amino acid and primary metabolite profiles, as well as expression analyses of N metabolite transporter genes suggest that the fungus alleviates the adaptation of its host to the N limitation condition. P. indica alters the expression of transporter genes which participate in relocation of NO3-, NH4+ and N metabolites from the roots to the leaves under N limitation. We propose that P. indica participates in the plant´s metabolomic adaptation to N limitation by delivering reduced N metabolites to the host, alleviating metabolic N starvation responses, and reprogramming the expression of N-metabolism related genes.
Project description:Two-week old bread wheat seedlings hydroponically grown Hoagland solution were transferred to potassium (K+)-free conditions for 8 d, their root and leaf proteome profiles were assessed using iTRAQ proteome method, and NCBInr database combined with the recently published bread wheat genome information were used to analyze the identified protein species. Over 4,000 unique proteins were identified, 818 K+-responsive protein species showed significant abundance regulation. The most majority of the identified K+-responsive protein species had exact gene loci, and showed no global but tissue- and chromosome- dependent genome distributions. The identified protein species were associated with diverse functions and exhibited organ-specific differences. Most of identified protein species associated with hormone synthesis were the enzymes involved in the synthesis of jasmonic acid (JA). Allene oxide synthase (AOS), a key JA synthesis-related enzyme, was significantly induced in both root and leaf organs of K+-deficient wheat seedlings, and its overexpression in rice enhanced the tolerance to low K+ or K+ deficiency, increased contents of K+ and JA and transcription levels of some K+-responsive genes. However, rice AOS T-DNA inserted mutant (osaos) exhibited more sensitivity to K+ deficiency. K+ deficiency significantly increased abundance of a high affinity K+ transporter (TaAHAK1), TaAHAK1 transgenic rice seedlings markedly alleviated sensitivity to K+ deficiency, and K+ deficiency also upregulated expression of homologous OsHAK1 gene in TaAOS transgenic rice plants. These results suggested an essential role of JA in K+ deficiency and gave molecular insight into the responses of plant to K+ deficiency.
