Project description:Disease outbreaks due to the consumption of legume seedlings contaminated with human enteric bacterial pathogens like Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella enterica are reported every year. We found surface and internal colonization of Medicago truncatula by Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli O157:H7 even with inoculum levels as low as two bacteria per plant. Expression analyses using microarray revealed that some Medicago truncatula genes were regulated in a similar manner in response to both of these enteric pathogens. Medicago truncatula roots were inoculated with low inoculum levels of two enteric bacteria per plant (E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella). 10 days post inoculated plants were used for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. manihotis (Xam) is a gram negative bacterium causing Cassava Bacterial Blight (CBB), an important limitation for cassava production. The genetic bases underlying cassava resistance and susceptibility to different Xam strains are currently unknown. To identify genes and pathways important for the interaction, we used RNA-seq data to study transcriptomic changes in cassava plants inoculated with the non-pathogenic Xam strain, (ORST4) and a pathogenic strain, ORST4 transformed with the TAL effector TALE1Xam (ORST4+TALE1Xam). This analysis revealed that transcriptomic responses to both strains were very similar and were dominated by the induction of genes related to photosynthesis and phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and the down-regulation of genes related to jasmonic acid signaling, features possibly related to defense responses. Among the genes induced exclusively in cassava plants inoculated with ORST4 + TALE1Xam we found one gene containing a predicted binding site for TALE1Xam in its promoter region. This gene encodes for a Heat Shock Transcription Factor B3 (HsfB3) and likely acts a transcriptional repressor. HsfB3 may constitute a new type of susceptibility gene activated by a TAL effector that manages to be sufficient for symptom development without suppressing defense responses in the plant. mRNA of Cassava stems inoculated with a non-pathogenic (ORST4) and pathogenic (+TALE1Xam) strain of Xanthomonas axonopodis pv.

Project description:White clover mosaic virus (WCMV) is a major pathogen of white clover (Trifolium repens L.), with significant effects on yield and persistence. Due to the absence of natural sources of WCMV resistance a transgenic strategy has been employed to produce plants constitutively expressing WCMV replicase gene derivatives, designed to inhibit the propagation of WCMV through an RNA silencing mechanism. A 12,000 feature oligonucleotide microarray has been used to identify global changes in host plant, in addition to virus genome-encoded gene expression associated with WCMV infection in non-transgenic and transgenic WCMV-resistant white clover. Pairwise comparison between the transcriptome of mock-inoculated non-transgenic and WCMV-inoculated transgenic plants provides clear evidence for substantial equivalence between these two genotype/treatments, and demonstrate the efficacy of the transgenic strategy. WCMV- inoculated non-transgenic plants exhibit elevated abundance of many virus-encoded, and host immune response-specific transcripts compared to the transgenic resistant plants or mock-inoculated non-transgenic plants. By contrast, relative to inoculated sensitive plants, the majority of significantly up-regulated genes in mock-inoculated non-transgenic plants or WCMV-inoculated transgenic plants are markers of healthy cellular function. These results, and the occurrence of levels of WCMV-encoded transcripts in inoculated transgenic plants equivalent to those in virus-free plants, confirm the validity of the transgenic RNA silencing approach.<br>

Project description:Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB, or greening) is one of the most severe diseases of citrus. Plant disease symptom development is considered to be the consequence of a number of molecular, cellular and physiological changes, and may also be associated with host defense responses. Understanding citrus host response to HLB may contribute to the development of new strategies to control this destructive disease. We performed microarray analysis to identify the differentially expressed genes in sweet orange in response to HLB infection using the Affymetrix GeneChipM-BM-. citrus genome array. Two-year-old seedlings of M-bM-^@M-^XMadam VinousM-bM-^@M-^Y sweet orange (Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck) were inoculated by grafting with bud sticks from HLB-diseased, PCR positive sweet orange plants. For mock-inoculated controls, the same types of plants were grafted with bud sticks from HLB-free, PCR negative sweet orange. At 7 months after inoculation, mature leaves were sampled from 3 individual HLB-diseased plants, and healthy leaves from 3 mock-inoculated plants as control. Total RNA was extracted from leaf samples and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Several reports have described the involvement of miRNAs in abiotic stresses. However, their role in biotic stress or to beneficial microbes has not been fully explored. In order to understand on the epigenetic regulation in plant in response to nitrogen-fixing bacteria association, we analyzed the sRNA regulation in maize hybrids (Zea mays M-bM-^@M-^S UENF 506-8) inoculated with the beneficial diazotrophic bacteria (Herbaspirillum seropedicae). Deep sequencing analysis was carried out to identify the sRNAs regulated in maize during association with diazotrophic bacteria. For this analysis, maize plants were germinated in wet paper and put in hydroponic system with HoaglandM-bM-^@M-^Ys solution and then inoculated with H. seropedicae for seven days. Mock and inoculated plants were collected and total RNA from a pool of samples was extracted with Trizol reagent. The two sRNA libraries were sequenced by Illumina. The sequences were filtered to remove adaptors and contaminants rRNA and tRNAs, and sequences with 18-28 nt in length were selected. To identify the miRNAs present in these libraries, we used two strategies using the same website (http://srna-tools.cmp.uea.ac.uk): one to identify novel miRNAs using the maize genome (verson 2) and miRCat pipeline; and other to identify conserved miRNAs using the miRBase database (release 13.0, http://microrna.sanger.ac.uk) and miRProf pipeline. We identified 17 novel putative miRNAs candidates and mapped the precursor of these miRNAs in the maize genome. Furthermore, we identified 25 conserved miRNAs families and the differential expressions were analyzed with miRProf pipeline. The bioinformatics analysis of four up-regulated miRNAs (miR397, miR398, miR408 and miR528) in inoculated plant was validated using stemM-bM-^@M-^Sloop RT-PCR assay. Our findings contribute to increase the knowledge of the molecular relation between plants and endophytic bacteria.

Project description:Powdery mildew is a very common plant disease and only few plants are immune. Host interactions have been identified and characterized for the pathosystems barley-B. graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt) and wheat-B. graminis f. sp. hordei (Bgh), whereas no data are reported about powdery mildew and nonhost plants, such as rice. On the other hand rice nonhost resistance is widely unexploited and only few expression data are available. To characterize rice response during nonhost interaction with Bgh, a global expression analysis was performed by using the GeneChipM-BM-. Rice Genome Array. To describe rice gene expression profiles during nonhost interaction, 2 week-old rice plantlets were inoculated with Bgh. Treated (inoculated) and control (mock) samples were collected 24 hours post-inoculation for GeneChipM-BM-. Rice Genome Array hybridization. For transcript proM-oM-,M-^Aling experiments with powdery mildew, entire leaves were sampled from rice plantlets 2 weeks old (cv. Nipponbare). Treated and control (mock) rice leaves were collected 24 hours post inoculation. Three biological replicates for inoculated and control plants were extracted and analysed independently with the GeneChipM-BM-. Rice Genome Array.

Project description:Casuarina glauca belongs to a family of angiosperms called actinorhizal plants because they can develop nitrogen-fixing nodules in association with the soil bacteria Frankia. They can also develop arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM) while associated with Glomeromycota fungi. The aim of this transcriptomic study was to get a global view of the plant symbiotic genetic program in AM and to identify new key plant genes involved in endosymbioses. C. glauca plants were grown in hydroponics then transferred to pots with or without spores of Glomus intraradices and watered with low phosphate solution to enhance mycorrhization. For this study we considered two stages: - a stage where plants were inoculated with G. intraradices, roots were harvested 8 weeks after inoculation with the G. intraradices. AM structures were present. - a stage where plants were not inoculated, roots were harvested at the same time as the inoculated roots , this is our control condition. AM structures were absent. Three biological replicates were used for each condition. Microarrays were designed by Imaxio (Clermont Ferrand, France ; http://www.imaxio.com/index.php) which has been accredited by Agilent Technologies (Palo Alto, CA, USA; http://www.home.agilent.com/agilent/home.jspx) as a certified service provider for microarray technologies. Based on 14327 annotated unigenes for C. glauca, 60mers probes were designed using eArray software (1 probe per unigene) and custom 8 x 15K Oligo Microarrays were manufactured by Agilent.

Project description:The plant pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae B728a grows and survives on leaf surfaces and in the leaf apoplast of its host, bean. Global transcriptome profiling was used to understand the contribution of distinct regulators to B728a fitness and pathogenicity. We performed a transcriptome analysis of B728a and nine regulator mutants recovered from the surface and interior of leaves and exposed to various environmental stresses in culture. These mutants were nonpolar deletion mutants lacking a single target regulator gene: ahlR, aefR, gacS, retS, salA, rpoS, algU, hrpL and rpoN. RNA was collected from cells of these strains that were exposed to five treatments in vitro, namely a basal medium, sodium chloride to confer an osmotic stress, hydrogen peroxide to confer an oxidative stress, iron limitation, and nitrogen limitation, and were recovered from two bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) leaf sites, namely epiphytic sites after leaf surface inoculation and 72 h of growth and apoplastic sites after leaf infiltration and 48 h of growth. The results indicated that the quorum-sensing regulators AhlR and AefR influenced few genes in planta or in vitro. In contrast, GacS and a downstream regulator SalA formed a large regulatory network that included a branch that regulated diverse traits and was independent of plant-specific environmental signals, and a signal-dependent branch that positively regulated secondary metabolite genes and negatively regulated the type III secretion system. RetS functioned almost exclusively to repress secondary metabolite genes in cells in culture but not on leaves. SalA functioned as a central regulator of iron status, based on its reciprocal regulation of pyoverdine and achromobactin genes, and also sulfur uptake, suggesting a role in the iron-sulfur balance. Among the sigma factors examined, AlgU influenced many more genes than RpoS, and most AlgU-regulated genes depended on RpoN. RpoN differentially impacted many AlgU- and GacS-activated genes in cells recovered from apoplastic versus epiphytic sites, suggesting differences in environmental signals or bacterial stress status in these two habitats. Collectively, our findings illustrate a central role for GacS, SalA, RpoN and AlgU in global regulation in B728a in planta and a high level of plasticity in their response to distinct environmental signals. RNA was collected from cells of B728a and nine regulator mutants following exposure to seven treatments. Each treatment was performed using two biological replicates, with B728a, M-bM-^HM-^FrpoS, M-bM-^HM-^FalgU, M-bM-^HM-^FhrpL and M-bM-^HM-^FrpoN examined in one laboratory, designated lab A, B728a, M-bM-^HM-^FahlR and M-bM-^HM-^FaefR examined in lab B, and B728a, M-bM-^HM-^FretS, M-bM-^HM-^FgacS and M-bM-^HM-^FsalA examined in lab C. Experimental methods were standardized across the three laboratories. For the in vitro treatments, exponential cells from two independent cultures were each exposed to the five treatments. For each treatment, the cells originating from the two cultures were pooled and the RNA was extracted; this was repeated in its entirety and the two RNA pools were combined. The resulting RNA representing four independent cultures served as a single biological replicate. Two biological replicates for each strain in each treatment were generated in this manner, with B728a included as a strain in each of the laboratories. Epiphytic populations of B728a and the nine regulator mutants were established following spray inoculation onto bean leaves and subsequent incubation; the epiphytic cells recovered from 400 to 600 leaves inoculated at one time served as a biological replicate, and the procedure was repeated to provide two biological replicates. Due to the availability of facilities, all of the epiphytic treatments were conducted at a single laboratory, lab B, with cultures provided from each of the other laboratories, and the cell pellets were returned to those laboratories for RNA extraction and analysis. Apoplastic B728a populations were established following vacuum infiltration into bean leaves and subsequent incubation; the apoplastic cells recovered from 40 to 80 leaves inoculated at one time served as a biological replicate, and two biological replicates were generated at each of the three laboratories. The RNA from all treatments was submitted to Roche Nimblegen, Inc where it was labeled and hybridized to an ORF-based microarray that included 5,071 ORFs and 61 putative sRNAs, with each ORF represented by 14 60-mer nucleotide probes. The fluorescence intensity for each probe was measured and subjected to robust multiarray averaging, which included adjustment for the background intensity, log2 transformation, quantile normalization and median polishing, and a robust estimated mean value was determined for each ORF and putative sRNA on the array.

Project description:Plant pathogenic bacteria disseminate and survive through transmission to and by seeds of hosts and non-hosts plants. To investigate the interaction between xanthomonads and developing seeds of Medicago truncatula, plants at the M-oM-,M-^Bower bud stage were spray inoculated until runoff with xanthomonads suspensions. Using the Medicago NimbleGen chip, a transcriptomic analysis was performed on seeds to characterize the molecular dialogue between Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris in an incompatible situation with M. truncatula seeds and Xanthomonas alfalfae pv. alfalfae in a compatible situation at two developmental time points (16 and 32 days atfter pollination (DAP). Six-condition experiment, 16dap_Mock versus 16dap_Xaa, 16dap_Mock versus 16dap_Xcc, 32dap_Mock versus 32dap_Xaa, 32dap_Mock versus 32dap_Xcc. Biological replicates: 6 controls (16dap_Mock, 32dap_Mock), 12 treatments (16dap_Xaa, 16dap_Xcc, 32dap_Xaa, 32dap_Xcc), independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array.
