Transcription profiling of Arabidopsis leaf, stem and flower tissues grown in either growth chamber or greenhouse

ABSTRACT: Analysis of gene expression in Arabidopsis thaliana leaf, stem and flower tissues.,Columbia (Col-0) Arabidopsis thaliana plants were grown at a density of 4 plants per 5 inch square pot either in a growth chamber or a green house set to 25*C by day, 20*C by night. Days were set to a 16hr photoperiod with 125 micro mol m-2s-1 fluorescent irradiation.,Expanding leaves were harvested 15 days post germination in the middle of the photoperiod (3 replicates).,Expanding upper 2 inch of the stem with siliques and pedicels removed were harvested 29 days post germination in the middle of the photoperiod (4 replicates).,Developed flowers and unopened buds were harvested 29 days post germination in the middle of the photoperiod (4 replicates).,RNA and Microarray Methods: Total RNA was extracted from the plants using the Trizol method (Invitrogen, Ramonell et al. (2002) Mol. Plant Pathol. 3: 301) and purified with a silica membrane column (Qiagen, RNeasy). Twenty micrograms biotinylated complementary RNA (cRNA) was prepared as described (Hernan et al. (2003) Cancer Res. 63, 140) from the purified total RNA. The resulting cRNA was used to hybridize ATH1 Arabidopsis GeneChips (Affymetrix) using the manufacturer's protocols. The array images were analyzed with the Affymetrix Microarray Suite 5.0 software with the target intensity set to 500. Normalized signal intensities were generated by multiplying signal intensities by ratio figure which set GapC (ID_REF = 258588_s_at) to 8500.

Stomata are epidermal structures that modulate gas exchange between a plant and its environment. During development, stomata are specified and positioned nonrandomly by the integration of asymmetric cell divisions and intercellular signaling. The Arabidopsis mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase gene, YODA, acts as part of a molecular switch controlling cell identities in the epidermis. Null mutations in YODA lead to excess stomata, whereas constitutive activation of YODA eliminated sto ...[more]

Project description:We have implemented an integrated Systems Biology approach to analyze overall transcriptomic reprogramming and systems level defense responses in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana during an insect (Brevicoryne brassicae) and a bacterial (Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato strain DC3000) attack. The main aim of this study was to identify the attacker-specific and general defense response signatures in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana while attacked by phloem feeding aphids or pathogenic bacteria. Defense responses and networks, unique and specific for aphid or Pseudomonas stresses were identified. Our analysis revealed a probable link between biotic stress and microRNAs in Arabidopsis and thus opened up a new direction to conduct large-scale targeted experiments to explore detailed regulatory links among them. The presented results provide a first comprehensive understanding of Arabidopsis - B. brassicae and Arabidopsis - P. syringae interactions at a systems biology level. Arabidopsis thaliana (ecotype Colombia-0) seeds were grown in 6-cm-diameter pots filled with a sterile soil mix (1.0 part soil and 0.5 part horticultural perlite), 3 plants per pot. Plants were kept in growth chambers VM-CM-6tsch VB 1514 (VM-CM-6tsch Industrietechnik GmbH, Germany) under the following conditions: a 8/16 h (light/dark) photoperiod at 22M-BM-0C/18M-BM-0C, 40%/70% relative humidity, and 70/0 M-NM-<mol m-2s-1 light intensity. After 32 days plants had 8 fully developed leaves. Each plant was infested with 32 wingless aphids [Brevicoryne Brassicae] (4 per leaf), which were transferred to leaves with a fine paintbrush. Infested plants and aphid-free controls were kept in plexiglass cylinders. Plants were harvested 72 h after infestation between the 6th and 8th hour of the light photoperiod. Four biological replicates were prepared from aphid infested and control plants, each sampled from 15 individual plants. Whole rosettes were cut at the hypocotyls and aphids were removed by washing with Milli-Q-filtered water. Differences in transcriptional responses were measured by comparing genes expression of aphid infested plants against non-infested control plants.
