RNA-Seq of Arabidopsis thaliana developing siliques and seeds with temperature shifts

ABSTRACT: We investigated RNA involved in the maternal control of progeny seed dormancy. Basically, we grew Ler wild type plants at 22 and 16 degree Celsius before fertilization which were moved to 22 degree for seed maturation along with ft-1 plants at 22 degree through lifetime (which show decreased seed germinability). Various RNA fractions were prepared from developing siluqes (seeds removed) and seeds, and sequenced to identify genes involved in transducing maternal memory of temperature to progeny seeds.

Seasonal behavior is important for fitness in temperate environments but it is unclear how progeny gain their initial seasonal entrainment. Plants use temperature signals to measure time of year, and changes to life histories are therefore an important consequence of climate change. Here we show that in Arabidopsis the current and prior temperature experience of the mother plant is used to control germination of progeny seeds, via the activation of the florigen Flowering Locus T (FT) in fruit ti ...[more]

RNASeq of Developing Arabidopsis Seeds Producing Hydroxy-Fatty Acids

Project description:Arabidopsis seeds expressing the castor fatty acid hydroxylase accumulate hydroxylated fatty acids up to 17% of total fatty acids in seed triacylglycerols, however total seed oil is also reduced up to 50%. Investigations into the cause of the reduced oil phenotype through in vivo [14C]acteate and [3H]2O metabolic labeling of developing seeds surprisingly revealed that the rate of de novo fatty acid synthesis within the transgenic seeds was approximately half that of control seeds. Addition of castor phospholipid:diacylglycerol acyltransferase (PDAT) increased hydroxylated fatty acid content of the seed oil, increased the rate of fatty acid synthesis, and mostly restored seed oil levels. RNAseq analysis indicated no changes in expression of fatty acid synthesis genes in hydroxylase-expressing plants. Transcript profiles of Arabidopsis developing seeds of three lines, at three stages of development were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina.

A VEL3 histone deacetylase complex establishes a maternal epigenetic state controlling progeny seed dormancy

Project description:Mother plants play an important role in the control of dormancy and dispersal characters of their progeny. In Arabidopsis seed dormancy is imposed by the embryo-surrounding tissues of the endosperm and seed coat. Here we show that VERNALIZATION5/VIN3-LIKE 3 (VEL3) maintains maternal control over progeny seed dormancy by establishing an epigenetic state in the central cell that primes the depth of primary seed dormancy later established during seed maturation. VEL3 colocalizes with MSI1 in the nucleolus and associates with a histone deacetylase complex. Furthermore, VEL3 preferentially associates with pericentromeric chromatin and is required for deacetylation and H3K27me3 deposition established in the central cell. The epigenetic state established by maternal VEL3 is retained in mature seeds, and controls seed dormancy in part through repression of programmed cell death-associated gene ORE1. Our data demonstrates a novel mechanism by which maternal control of progeny seed physiology persists post-shedding, maintaining parental control of seed behaviour.

Transcriptome profile of Arabidopsis thaliana wild-type versus mea mutant ovary and seed at different developmental time points

Project description:merMEDEA (MEA) is a component of the Polycomb Repressive complex 2 (PRC2) of Arabidopsis thaliana, and a maternal imprinted gene that functions during central cell, embryo and endosperm development. Seeds that develop from mea mutant egg cells abort regardless of the paternal genotype. With this approach, we aim to uncover putative genes that are downstream of MEA and might cause the seed abortion phenotype. For this, we compare three developmental time point datasets between wild-type and mea mutant: ovary (before fertilization), and seed at 1-2 and 4 days after pollination (DAP).

Identifying conserved and novel miRNAs in developing seeds of Brassica napus using deep sequencing [mRNA-seq]

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important post-transcriptional regulators of plant development and seed formation. In Brassica napus, an important edible oil crop, valuable lipids are synthesized and stored in specific seed tissues during embryogenesis. The miRNA transcriptome of B. napus is currently poorly characterized, especially at different seed developmental stages. This work aims to describe the miRNAome of developing seeds of B. napus by identifying plant-conserved and novel miRNAs and comparing miRNA abundance in mature versus developing seeds. A total of 62 miRNA families were detected through a computational analysis of a large number of reads obtained from deep sequencing two small RNA and two RNA-seq libraries of (i) pooled immature developing stages and (ii) mature B. napus seeds. Among these miRNA families, 17 families are currently known to exist in B. napus; additionally, 32 families not reported in B. napus but conserved in other plant species were identified by alignment with known plant mature miRNAs. The contigs from the assembled mRNA-seq data allowed for a search for putative new precursors and led to the identification of 13 novel miRNA families. Differential expression between the libraries was determined through a statistical analysis of normalized miRNA reads and revealed several miRNAs and isomiRNAs that were more abundant during the developing stages. The predicted miRNA target genes encode a broad range of proteins related to seed development and energy storage. This work presents a comprehensive study of the miRNA transcriptome of B. napus seeds and will provide a basis for future research on more targeted studies of individual miRNAs and their functions in embryogenesis, seed maturation and lipid accumulation in B. napus. RNA profiles in 2 different seed libraries (mature seeds and a pool of developing seed stages) of Brassica napus by deep sequencing (Illumina HiSeq2000).

Maternal siRNAs as regulators of parental genome imbalance and gene expression in endosperm of Arabidopsis seeds.

Project description:Seed size is important to crop domestication and natural selection and is affected by the balance of maternal and paternal genomes in endosperm. Endosperm, like placenta in mammals, provides reserves to the developing embryo. Interploidy crosses disrupt the genome balance in endosperm and alter seed size. Specifically, paternal-excess crosses (2 M-CM-^W 4) delay endosperm cellularization (EC) and produce larger seeds, whereas maternal-excess crosses (4 M-CM-^W 2) promote precocious EC and produce smaller seeds. The mechanisms for responding to the parental genome dosage imbalance and for gene expression changes in endosperm are unknown. In plants, RNA polymerase IV (PolIV or p4) encoded by NRPD1a is required for biogenesis of a major class of 24-nt small interfering RNAs (also known as p4-siRNAs), which are predominately expressed in developing endosperm. Here we show that p4-siRNA accumulation depends on the maternal genome dosage, and maternal p4-siRNAs target transposable elements (TEs) and TE-associated genes (TAGs) in seeds. The p4-siRNAs correlate negatively with expression levels of AGAMOUS-LIKE (AGL) genes in endosperm of interploidy crosses. Moreover, disruption of maternal NRPD1a expression is associated with p4-siRNA reduction and AGL up-regulation in endosperm of reciprocal crosses. This is unique genetic evidence for maternal siRNAs in response to parental genome imbalance and in control of transposons and gene expression during endosperm development. 8 samples: 2x X 2x seed,leaf; 4x X 4x seed,leaf; 2x X 4x seed,leaf; 4x X 2x seed,leaf.

Gene regulation by the seed maturation master regulators, LEC1, LEC2, FUS3 and ABI3 [set 2]

Project description:During seed maturation, the embryo accumulates nutrition storage compounds such as oil and reserve proteins, and acquires dormancy and desiccation tolerance. Arabidopsis transcription factors LEC1, LEC2, FUS3 and ABI3 are known as the master regulators of seed maturation because all these events during the seed maturation are severely affected by the respective mutants. In addition, the lec1, lec2 and fus3 mutants exhibit some heterochronic characteristics, as exemplified by the development of true leaf-like cotyledons during embryogenesis. To characterize these mutants at the whole genome expression level, microarray experiments were performed. Developing seeds were dissected from the siliques of the abi3-6 homozygous plants or the respective wild type plants (Col-0) at 12 and 16 days after flowering. Seeds samples were obtained from triplicate batches of plants and used for RNA preparation.

Penfield: Understanding the affect of maternal environment on seed dormancy

Project description:Maternal environment is an important regultor of seed dormancy, but the mechanisms underlying the process are poorly understood. We have found that genes in the circadian clock control dormancy, in part through their regulation of the canonical photoperiod pathway known from research into flowering time control. In this experiment we compare the affects of altering seed maturation temperature or maternal photoperiod on dry seed transcriptomes, and the photoperiod-insenstive ft-1 mutant to wt type Ler. In this way we are identifying gene expression programmes which result from the seed's response to maternal environmental experience. Keywords: Expression profilling by array 12 samples were used in this experiment
