Project description:Potato leaves From Solanum tuberosum var. Kennebec will be wounded and oral secretions from 4th instar CPB will be isolated and added to the plants as described by Kruzmane et al (2002, Physiol. Plantarum 115:577-584). The leaf from the 6th node of the potato plant will be wounded or wounded and treated with oral secretions from CPB. Unwounded leaves from node 1-5 of the wounded and wounded plus oral secretions plants will be harvested as systemic material. The leaves will be harvested after 4 hrs and RNA will be isolated. 4 hrs was chosen because this represents a time when early and late induced genes should both be present. In addition, the leaf from the 6th node will be subjected to feeding by CPB that have been raised on potato leaves and starved for 16 hrs immediately prior to infestation. Insects will be allowed to feed for 1 hr and the leaves will be harvested after 3 additional hrs. An additional set of plants will be used to infest the leaf on the 6th node for 4 hrs. Leaves from the 6th node will be collected from uninfested plants after 4 hrs as a control. Three sets of 6-12 plants will be used for each sample. Keywords: Direct comparison 24 hybs total

Project description:Objectives: Our work focuses on the responses of Solanaceous plants to viruses that cause economically important diseases in tree fruits. Using mock inoculated leaf tissue as a reference, we plan to compare the gene expression profiles of Nicotiana Benthamiana plants infected with one of three viruses; Plum Pox Potyvirus (PPV), Tomato Ringspot Nepovirus (ToRSV), and Prunus Nectrotic Ringspot Nepovirus (PNRSV). Our goals are as follows: (1) Identify genes that are induced/repressed in response to individual viruses. (2) Identify genes that are induced/repressed in response to all 3 viruses. (3) Compare results to existing potato array data to look for similarities in responses to other pathogens. Experimental Design: Nicotiana benthamiana plants were inoculated with one of three viruses: PPV, ToRSV, or PNRSV. 3 week old plants were inoculated by rubbing virus infected plant sap onto leaves dusted with carborundum. Control plants were mock inoculated using sap from healthy plants. All plants were maintained in a growth chamber at 22C for 18 days. 8 plants were inoculated with each virus or mock inoculated. This experiment was repeated twice. 4 biological replicates derived from 2 virus infected plants from each replica experiment (4 plants) are to be used for hybridizations. RNA from all mock inoculated plants was similarly pooled to create 4 biological replicates. Each replicate control will serve as a universal reference sample that is to be hybridized pair wise with each of the three virus infected samples. RNA extraction: After 18 days, un-inoculated leaves displaying clear symptoms were harvested and immediately frozen in liquid N2. Total RNA was purified using Trizol according to TIGRs listed protocol. RNA was subsequently treated with Turbo DNA-free RNase (Ambion cat#1907). Finally, total RNA was further purified on RNeasy columns (Qiagen) according to manufacturer’s instructions and quantified using a Nanodrop spectrophotometer. Keywords: Reference design 23 hybs total

Project description:The response to moderate and heavy drought of two Solanum tuberosum ssp. Andigena varieties, Sullu (NP 03.03) and SA 2563 (NP 03.01), planted in rain- and soil water protected fields in the Peruvian highlands are compared. Previous experiments indicate that Sullu has a greater capacity for yield maintenance under drought than SA 2563. Both clones have similar morphological properties, vegetative periods and rooting depths, so it can be assumed that the cause for increased drought tolerance of clone NP 03.03 is rather due to physiological or biochemical mechanisms, than to drought escape by deep rooting or earliness. Sullu and SA 2563 were planted in a random block design with 5 plants per bloc and 7 repetitions per treatment. Treatments: (1) drought stress, (2) irrigated control The plants were drip-irrigated in both treatments until tuberization (until day 84 after planting). Subsequently, the irrigation was stopped in the drought field, but continued in the control field. The soil moisture content in the control field was kept near field capacity. Planting date: October 05 2004 Start of drought treatment (during tuberization, 84 days after planting): December 28 2004 First sampling (soil water potential: -0.3 mPa 114 days after planting): January 27 2005 Second sampling (soil water potential –0.6 MPa, 134 days after planting): February 15 2005 Harvest: March 19 2005 (165 days after planting) The experimental design includes gene expression analysis in leaves, roots and stolons at two time points, when soil water potential reaches -0.3 and –0.6 MPa. Gene expression changes will be set in relation with physiological and agronomical data obtained in the same experiment. Keywords: Direct comparison 19 hybs total

Project description:Transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) expressing Caenorhabditis elegans cell death genes, Ced4 and Ced3, show evidence suggesting such expressions protect the plants from infestation by the plant parasitic nematode Meloidogyne incognita. Although positive results have been correlated with the gene expressions (data in preparation for publication; a draft of the publication can be provided upon request), the mechanism by which the nematode protection is manifested is not clearly understood. One possibility is that the C. elegans cell death proteins produced by the transgenic plants are being ingested and incorporated into the nematode’s own cell death pathway, leading to their demise. Alternatively, it is also possible that expression of the C. elegans cell death genes promotes the endogenous resistance genes of the plant, leading to nematode resistance. We want to test the later hypothesis by conducting a reference design microarray experiment to establish the expression profile of Ced3, and Ced4 homozygous plants and Ced3xCed4 double heterozygous plants in comparison with wild-type tobacco plants. If the hypothesis is correct, we expect to detect increased expression of pathogenicity-related genes in the transgenic plants. Furthermore, characterization of the expression profiles in these transgenic plants will provide us directionality for our future research on the elucidation of this resistance mechanism.

Project description:The goal of this study was to calculate the degree of substantial equivalence between a GM potato line modified for late blight resistance and corresponding non-GM controls in the presence/absence of P. infestans inoculation. The GM phenotype was conferred through the introduction of the Rb gene which has been previously cloned from Solanum bulbocastanum (Song et al. 2003). The resulting GM phenotype was characterised by the expression of strong, partial resistance to P. infestans. By obtaining an expression profile from a GM and non-GM population before and after exposure to P. infestans, this effectively provides for the completion of two risk assessments: impact on the potato transcriptome of plus/minus genetic modification; before and after exposure to the pathogen. For each biological replicate, individuals from three separate GM lines (A, B, C) and three separate non-GM lines (D, E, F) were randomly sorted and cultivated for analysis. Each GM line contained an independent, single transgene insertion, which was verified through Southern Blot analysis. One day prior to pathogen exposure, the 4-week-old potato plants were transferred into a growth chamber with a 16-h light period, 90% relative humidity at a temperature of 15C. Plants were randomly selected and 14 individuals/line were inoculated with a field isolate of P. infestans. An additional 14 plants/line were sprayed with water. Inoculations were made with a sporangial suspension of 20,000/mL and plants were sprayed until run-off. Twenty-four hours post-inoculation, leaf tissue was collected from 9 plants per treatment, flash frozen in liquid nitrogen and pooled. Total leaf RNA was extracted using Trizol and the whole experiment was repeated three times (three biological replicates). Keywords: Direct comparison 19 hybs total

Project description:Wildtype and SIPK -silenced (RNAi) tobacco cell suspension cultures were grown in MS medium at 25 C in the dark. Cell suspension cultures were transferred to fresh growth medium 3 days prior to pooling each genotype and dividing the pool into 3 x 10ml volumes per genotype. A 30 minute pre-incubation was used with xanthine (for abiotic controls and treatments), but no pre-treatment was used for the biotic stressors. For each treatment and abiotic/biotic controls, the cells were harvested by vacuum filtration at the appropriate time points (controls sampled at 0 hrs) and frozen in N2(l) for RNA extraction. In order to discern the effect of silencing SIPK on the transciptome in defence response, biological replicates of WT and SIPK-Ri were randomly paired on 3 slides per treatment or control group.

Project description:An in vivo and in vitro potato tuber development gene expression study. For in vitro tuber development expression analysis, RNA was isolated from in vitro microtubers at 2, 5, 10, 20 and 30 days following observed tuber induction. Two microtuber populations were used as biological replicates for the developmental stages. The RNA from all developmental stages was pooled to generate the reference samples. Ten microarray hybridizations were performed. For in vivo tuber development expression analysis, RNA was isolated from tubers growing in growth chamber conditions. Tissues were divided into six group, according to developmental size: stolon (no tuber formation), 1-5 mm tubers, 6-10 mm tubers, 11-15 mm tubers, 16-25 mm tubers, and 26-35 mm tubers. Two biological replicates of ten plants each were grown sequentially in the same growth chamber. The RNA from all developmental stages was pooled to generate the reference samples. Twelve microarray hybridizations were performed. For all experiments, the RNA was labeled using the indirect labeling method with random hexamer primers. Amplified cRNA was used as labeling template for stolons. Total RNA was used as labeling template in all other labeling reactions.

Project description:A synthetic autopolyploidy plant series O37 was developed from chromosome doublings of a monoploid (12 chromosome) plant derived from a Solanum phureja background. Monoploid (1x), diploid (2xR3 and 2xR5) and tetraploid (4x) plants were used for gene expression profiling. Total RNA was isolated from growing leaflets of six plants of each genotype at 20 day after planting. Total RNA was isolated and amplified from growing root tips of each genotype at 7 days after planting. Microarray hybridizations were performed in a loop design for three biological replicates.

Project description:Healthy five-weeks old S. tuberosum (Red Pontiac) and S. commersonii (Oka 5040) were subjected to cold-acclimating temperature (2oC) in the growth chamber. Control plants at identical developmental stage were also grown in growth chamber at optimum conditions for growth (28oC, 14/10, light/dark, 65% RH). Leaf tissues were collected from the control (reference) and cold-acclimating (experimental treatment, 2oC) plants for each species at 2, 4, 7, 10 and 14 days after the initiation of the control and low temperature treatments. A total of two plants for each species were used for both the control and treatment experiments and tissue samples from each plant (within replicate) were pooled for RNA isolation. These experiments were performed twice in order to produce two sets of biological replicates for each species for all sampling time-points. Keywords: Reference design 17 hybs total
