The transcriptional mechanism behind Mimosa pudica leaf-folding in response to physical disturbance

ABSTRACT: Priming is a mechanism used by plants to rapidly respond to external stimuli, becoming essential for their survival and resistance to unfavorable conditions. The physiological state acquired by a plant after the exposure to repeated stress is the result of molecular mechanisms determining plant’s memory of past stress events. Mimosa pudica is a plant known for its ability to respond to physical disturbance by folding its leaves. The movement is determined by a strong Ca2+ influx, which acts as both osmotic pressure regulator and secondary messenger for gene expression. Considering the need to intervene in a sustainable way to counteract the ever-increasing biotic and abiotic stresses caused by climate change, it would be particularly interesting to deepen our knowledge on stress tolerance development in primed plants. From this perspective, M. pudica can be a valuable model for studying the molecular mechanisms related to adaptive memory acquisition after repeated stress events. In this study, the gene regulatory networks underlying M. pudica leaf closure following single and multiple mechanical disturbances (droppings) were investigated.

Drought tolerance mechanisms in chickpea studied through transcriptomic analysis

Project description:In order to identify genes and pathways involved in drought tolerance, RNA was isolated from control and 15-days drought-stressed chickpea plants. Two chickpea genotypes, Desi PI598080 (“D”) and Kabuli Flip07 318C (“K”), respectively sensitive and tolerant to drought stresses were used. The 12 extracted RNAs (2 genotypes x 2 water regimes x 3 biological replicates) were sequenced, and the transcriptomic changes between the genotypes and water conditions were analysed. The genotype with higher drought sensitivity showed a generally higher change of gene transcripts than the genotype with less sensitivity, upregulating genes involved in photophosphorylation process (transferases, oxygen lyases and oxidoreductases), hormones (brassinosteroids, abscissic acid and gibberellin response), solute transporters, nutrient uptake and cell wall properties (cellulose synthases, hemicellulose synthases, poligalacturonases, pectate lyases). These results will be helpful for further studies aiming at identifying genes and molecular markers to develop chickpea cultivars resilient to water stress.

Transcriptomic responses to cold stress in cold-semi-sensitive and cold-tolerant strawberry varieties

Project description:This study investigates the molecular mechanisms of cold stress tolerance in two strawberry cultivars: ‘Queen Elisa,’ a highly cold-tolerant variety, and ‘Camarosa,’ a semi-sensitive variety. Using RNA-Seq analysis, we identified key genes and pathways involved in the cold stress response, providing insights into the genetic and molecular basis of cold tolerance in strawberries. These findings highlight potential targets for improving crop resilience to abiotic stress.

Proteomes and Ubiquitylomes Analysis Reveals the Involvement of Ubiquitination in Protein Degradation

Project description:Petal senescence is a complex programmed process. It has been previously demonstrated that treatment with ethylene, a plant hormone involved in senescence, can extensively alter transcriptome and proteome profiles in plants. However, little is known regarding the impact of ethylene on post-translational modification (PTM) or the association between PTM and the proteome. Protein degradation is one of the hallmarks of senescence, and ubiquitination, a major PTM in eukaryotes, plays important roles in protein degradation. In this study, we first obtained reference petunia transcriptome data via RNA sequencing. Next, we quantitatively investigated the petunia proteome, ubiquitylome, and the association between them in petunia corollas following ethylene treatment. In total, 51,799 unigenes, 3,606 proteins, and 2,270 ubiquitination sites were quantified 16 hours after ethylene treatment. Treatment with ethylene resulted in 14,448 down-regulated and 6,303 up-regulated unigenes (absolute log2-fold change >1 and FDR<0.001), 284 down-regulated and 233 up-regulated proteins, and 320 up-regulated and 127 down-regulated ubiquitination sites using a 1.5-fold threshold (P<0.05), indicating that global ubiquitination levels increase during ethylene-mediated corolla senescence in petunia. Several putative ubiquitin ligases were up-regulated at the protein and transcription levels. Our results showed that the global proteome and ubiquitylome were negatively correlated and that ubiquitination could be involved in the degradation of proteins during ethylene-mediated corolla senescence in petunias. Ethylene regulates hormone signaling transduction pathways at both the protein and ubiquitination levels in petunia corollas. In addition, our results revealed that ethylene increases the ubiquitination levels of proteins involved in ER-associated degradation (ERAD).

Comparative transcriptome profiling of Arabidopsis lyrata and Arabidopsis thaliana

Project description:Arabidopsis thaliana and Arabidopsis lyrata are two closely related Brassicaceae species, which are used as models for plant comparative biology. They differ by lifestyle, predominant mating strategy, ecological niches and genome organization. In order to explore molecular basis of specific traits, we performed RNA-sequencing of vegetative rosettes from both species. Additionally, we sequenced apical meristems and inflorescences of A. lyrata that allow for intra-specific transcriptome comparison in several major developmental stages. Arabidopsis lyrata and Arabidopsis thaliana aerial tissues were collected from mock treated plants, total RNA isolated and poly-A RNA populations sequenced

Proteomics of non-host response in barley

Project description:Nonhost resistance, a resistance of plant species against all nonadapted pathogens, is considered the most durable and efficient immune system in plants. To increase our understanding of the response of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) plants to infection by powdery mildew, Blumeria graminis f. sp. Tritici, we used quantitative proteomic analysis (LC-MS/MS). We compared the response of two genotypes of barley cultivar Golden Promise, wild type (WT) and plants with overexpression of phytoglobin (previously hemoglobin) class 1 (HO), which has previously been shown to significantly weaken non-host resistance. A total of 8804 proteins were identified and quantified, out of which the abundance of 1044 proteins changed significantly in at least one of the four comparisons (‘i’ stands for ‘inoculated’)- HO/WT and HOi/WTi (giving genotype differences), and WTi/WT and HOi/HO (giving treatment differences). Among these differentially abundant proteins (DAP) were proteins related to structural organization, disease/defense, metabolism, transporters, signal transduction and protein synthesis. More proteins changed in abundance in WT than in HO after inoculation and most DAP increased in abundance.

Gene expression responses to heat stress in early- and late-flowering chickpea cultivars

Project description:The primary objective of this study is to investigate the molecular differences between chickpea varieties with early and late flowering, focusing on gene expression in response to heat stress. Through the analysis of differentially expressed genes under high-temperature conditions, we aim to gain a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying early flowering in chickpea. This approach will not only help bridge the current gaps in our scientific knowledge but may also provide valuable insights for the development of targeted genetic improvement strategies to enhance the thermal resilience of chickpea crops.

iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomic analysis reveals new metabolic pathways responding to cold stress in two Winter Turnip Rape (Brassica rapa L.), part 1

Project description:Winter turnip rape (Brassica rapa L.) is a valuable ecologically beneficial oil crop that is produced mainly for its ability of conserving soil and water in winter and spring and its high quality edible oil in northwestern China. However, coldness and extremely low temperature negatively affects the growth and development of winter turnip rape, resulting in failure to overwinter and production in northwestern China. ‘Longyou 7’(Brassica rapa L.) and ‘Tianyou 4’ (Brassica rapa L.) are closely related plant species, but their cold tolerances are different. ‘Longyou 7’ is a cold-tolerant cultivar, ‘Tianyou 4’is a cold-sensitive cultivar. In this study, we used iTRAQ-based proteomics to compare quantitative changes in the proteome of two winter turnip rape leaves and roots in response to cold stress to elucidate the possible molecular mechanism underlying the ability of ‘Longyou 7’ to adapt to cold stress.
