Single-base resolution DNA methylomes of soybean recombinant inbred lines reveals heritability patterns of natural methylation variants (RNA-seq)

ABSTRACT: Microbe associated molecular pattern (MAMP)-triggered immunity (MTI) is an important component of the plant innate immunity response to invading pathogens. Although several MTI responses can be measured in different plant species, their magnitude is likely plant-species specific and even cultivar specific. In this work, we show that the variation in gene expression, either under untreated or treated conditions, is inherited. In addition, genes with potential additive and non-additive effects were identified in two mapping lines, several of these with a potential function in the control of the innate immunity. Likewise, we observed that some genes differentially expressed across the parental and mapping lines showed different DNA methylation patterns. Finally, a gene regulatory module analysis identified key networks that likely control soybean innate immunity. The data presented represent the basis for further functional analysis that can lead to a better understanding of the soybean innate immunity response. RNA-Seq data collected from Glycine max leaves treated with MAMPs of two parental lines of a RIL population and two individual RILs.

Project description:Despite their importance, plant MAP kinase targets are still poorly elucidated. Here, the specific in vivo interaction of an ethylene response factor (ERF104) with the Arabidopsis MAP kinase, MPK6, is shown by fluorescence resonance energy transfer. The interaction, which is lost within minutes after treatment with the flagellin-derived flg22 peptide, is dependent on both MPK6 kinase activity and rapid ethylene signaling initiated downstream of MPK6 activation. ERF104 is an MPK6 substrate and phosphorylation site mutations affected its stability. ERF104 activates promoters with GCC elements. This was evident from microarray data of overexpressing transgenic plants, where promoters of up regulated genes contain GCC motifs and chromatin immunoprecipitation showing ERF104 association with PDF1.2 promoter. The ERF104 overexpressor did not affect biotrophic bacteria proliferation but was more susceptible to necrotrophic Botrytis cinerea. Microarray performed with erf104 or mpk6 revealed only a limited number of flg22-induced genes that require these elements - possibly as a; result of functional redundancies. Thus, ERF104 phosphorylation by MPK6, in concert with ethylene signaling induced by pathogen-derived molecules, modulates defense in Arabidopsis. Experiment Overall Design: Leaves of six week old Col-0, erf104, mpk6 and 35S::ERF104 plants were infiltrated with 1ÂµM Flg22 or water and harvested four hours later. Total RNA was isolated and processed according to the Affymetrix protocol for biotin-labelled cRNA and hybridized to the Affymetrix ATH1 chip. The data Experiment Overall Design: was analyzed with Genespring GX 7.3.1 software (Agilent) with the following parameters: Filter on Flags for present or marginal in 50% of all considered experiments, Filter for reliable differentially expressed genes based on volcano plot (one way ANOVA p-value <0.05 and >3-fold change in expression). For the flg22 experiments, analysis for each genotype was separately performed and a composite list of flg22-regulated genes compiled â with the aim of including genes that may be differentially regulated in the genotype. Global expression profile was visualized by k-means clustering and condition tree (Genespring).

Project description:According to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and Health Canada, genetically modified crops are considered safe if they are substantially equivalent to a conventional crop in regards to agronomic, physiological and compositional characteristics. A recurring issue in safety assessment of genetically modified crops is the paucity of analytical methods to detect unintended or unexpected outcomes of genetic modification. Traditional targeted compound comparative analyses are limited in scope and capacity to detect unintended changes in chemical composition. This study explored the potential of using microarray technology to assess the substantial equivalence of gene expression profiles between genetically modified and conventional soybean cultivars. Different pre processing methods were applied to the raw expression data from the arrays, and clustering methods were used to try and differentiate the genetically modified cultivars from the conventional cultivars. Results showed that more variation existed between different strains of conventional cultivars than between conventional and genetically modified cultivars.

(2008). âEffect of transgenes on global gene expression in soybean is within the natural range of variation of their conventional counterparts.â Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry (in press) Experiment Overall Design: Five samples (biological replicates) of total RNA from each of the five different soybean varieties were selected for hybridization to Affymetrix Soybean GeneChips, for a total of 25 chips (following total RNA integrity assessment). Spike controls B2, bio-B, bio-C, bio-D and Cre-x were added to each hybridization cocktail. Arrays were washed and stained in an Affymetrix Fluidics Station prior to scanning on the Affymetrix GeneChip Scanner 3000. Image acquisition and processing was done with the Affymetrix Microarray Analysis Suite 5.0.
