Expression data from the process of chilling stress causing Alternaria alternata infection and leading to cotton leaf senescence

ABSTRACT: Cotton premature leaf senescence often occurred with an increasing frequency in many cotton growing areas and caused serious reduction in yield and quality of cotton has been one of the impontant factors that restrict severely the production of cotton.Our laboratory studies showed chilling stress is the key factor that induced A. alternatia infection, caused Alternaria disease and then lead to cotton leaf senescence, but the molecular mechanism of cotton premature leaf senscence is still unclear. We used microarrays to study molecular mechanism of chilling stress causing Alternaria alternata infection and leading to cotton leaf senescence and find the key genes during this process. Plants were grown in growth chamber with a 14/10 hours photoperiod, 28â/22â. Three-to-four leaves stage cotton plants were pre-treated by chilling stress with the low temperatures of 16/12â day/night for a fixed time length of 3 days. While, the normal growth plants were sustained growing at optimal temperature of 28/20â day/night. And then, both chilling stress pre-treated and normal growth cotton plants were inoculated with Alternaria. alternata isolate A1. The mock inoculations were performed with sterilized water. Cotton leaf Samples were respectively collected at 3, 6 days after inoculation (DAI) for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. To that end, we collected 8 samples, i.e. chilling stress pre-treated cotton leaves: 3 DAI (C) and its mock control (D), 6 DAI (E) and its mock control (F); normal growth cotton leaves: 3 DAI (H) and its mock control (I), 6 DAI (J) and its mock control (K). All samples were arranged in completely randomized designed with three replications for each treatment.

Project description:Global gene expression was compared between roots of cotton plants (variety Sicot 71) flooded for 4 hours and roots of unflooded cotton plants. Global gene expression was also compared between leaves of cotton plants (variety Sicot 71) flooded for 24 hours and leaves of unflooded cotton plants. Waterlogging stress causes yield reductions in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.). A major component of waterlogging stress is the lack of oxygen available to submerged tissues. While changes in expressed protein, gene transcription and metabolite levels have been studied in response to low oxygen stress, little research has been done on molecular responses to waterlogging in cotton. We assessed cotton growth responses to waterlogging and assayed global gene transcription responses in root and leaf cotton tissues of partially submerged plants. Waterlogging causes significant reductions in stem elongation, shoot mass, root mass, and leaf number. At the global gene expression level waterlogging significantly alters the expression of 1012 genes (4.2% of genes assayed) in root tissue as early as 4h after flooding. Many of these genes are associated with cell wall modification and growth pathways, glycolysis, fermentation, mitochondrial electron transport and nitrogen metabolism. Waterlogging of plant roots also altered global leaf gene expression, significantly changing the expression of 1305 genes (5.4% of genes assayed) after 24h of flooding. Genes associated with cell wall growth and modification, tetrapyrrole synthesis, hormone response, starch metabolism and nitrogen metabolism were affected in leaf tissues of waterlogged plants. Implications of these results for the development of waterlogging tolerant cotton are discussed. Keywords: Stress Response Plants of cotton cultivar Sicot 71 were grown to the two-leaf stage in tubs. For stress treatments plants were either watered as normal or flooded with water to completely submerge the root system. At four and twenty-four hours post-flooding samples of root or leaf tissue were taken from control and flooded plants. Total RNA was extracted from each tissue sample and assayed on cotton Affymetrix chips. Two biological replications were used for each comparison.

Project description:Comparative transcriptome profiles of cotton (G. hirsutum L. cv. Bikaneri narma) during boll development stages (0, 2, 5 and 10 dpa) under bollworm infested biotic stress. Cotton is one of the most commercially important fibre crops in the world and used as a source for natural textile fibre and cottonseed oil. The biotic stress is one of the major constraints for crop production. Cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera) is one the major insect pest in cotton and drastically damages the cotton boll. To decipher the molecular mechanisms involved in cotton boll/fibre cell development, transcriptome analysis has been carried out by comparing G. hirsutum L cv. Bikaneri narma cotton boll samples induced by biotic stress (bollworm infested) and that their respective control cotton bolls collected under field conditions. Cotton bolls were collected at fibre initiation (0, 2 dpa/days post anthesis) and elongation (5, 10 dpa) stages for both control and biotic stress condition and gene expression profiles were analyzed by Affymetrix cotton GeneChip Genome array. Cotton plants (G. hirsutum L. cv. Bikaneri narma) were grown under field condition. Helicoverpa armigera (cotton bollworm) second instar larvae was released at the time of flower opening and covered with polythene bag to prevent insect escape and tagged. The infested flowers were collected after 8 hrs infestations and labeled as 0 dpa. Likewise after two and five dayM-bM-^@M-^Ys infestation the bolls were collected and labelled as 2 and 5 dpa, respectively. After five days the insect was removed from bolls and left the bolls for up to 10 days and collected then labeled as 10 dpa. Meanwhile respective control samples also tagged and collected. Total RNA was isolated from control (WT) and biotic stress (bollworm infested) induced samples collected at 0, 2, 5 and 10 dpa boll development stages using SpectrumTM Plant Total RNA kit (Sigma, USA) according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys protocol. Affymetrix cotton GeneChip Genome array (Affymetrix, USA) having 23,977 probe sets representing 21,854 cotton transcripts was used for transcriptome analysis. Three biological replicates were maintained to test the reproducibility and quality of the chip hybridization. cDNA labeling, array hybridization, staining and washing procedures were carried out as described in the Affymetrix protocols. CEL files having estimated probe intensity values were analyzed with GeneSpring GX-11.5 software (Agilent Technologies, USA) to get differentially expressed transcripts. The Robust Multiarray Average (RMA) algorithm was used for the back ground correction, quantile normalization and median polished probe set summarization to generate single expression value for each probe set. Normalized expression values were log2 transformed and differential expression analysis was performed using unpaired t-test. The p-values were corrected by applying the false discovery rate (FDR) correction (Benjamini and Hochberg, 2000).
