ABSTRACT: Gene expression analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana frs7;frs12;ninja-1triple mutant line in comparison with control lines (frs7;frs12, ninja-1 and Col0).
Project description:Gene expression analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana frs7;frs12 double mutant line in comparison with WT (Col0) seedlings at two different time points during the day ZT8 and ZT16.
Project description:A PSB-D wild type Arabidopsis thaliana cell culture (Arabidopsis Biological Resource Center stock: CCL84840) was grown after subculturing for one week and divided into separate 10 mL samples for 24 h. Samples were then treated with 50 µM RubNeddin1 (RN1, Chembridge ID 6389186), 2,4-D, or an equal volume of DMSO. Total RNA was extracted from each 10 mL cell culture sample, for each of at least 3 biological replicates, RQ1 RNase-free DNase (Promega) was used for the on-column DNase digestion step. A Trueseq RNA-Seq library (Illumina) was compiled and sequenced as 50-bp single read using Illumina HiSeq 2000. Control samples (3) for this experiment were submitted under accession number E-MTAB-3915
Project description:In this study, through a genome-wide transcriptome analysis of wounding in the leaf explant, we identified NAC1 (petunia NAM and Arabidopsis ATAF1, ATAF2, and CUC2) family transcription factor gene that acts in response to wounding and functions in regulation of cell wall metabolism. RNA-Seq analysis of the wound site of leaf explants and leaf residu

RNA-Seq analysis of the genes up-regulated by NAC1
Project description:Analysis of brassinosteroid (BR) and auxin effects on gene expression in Arabidopsis roots. Our genomic results indicate that BR and auxin induce largely opposite gene expression responses in primary roots. RNA-Seq for 7-day-old Arabidopsis Col-0, dwf4, bri1-116, and bri1-116;bzr1-1D roots grown on regular medium and treated with brassinolide, auxin or mock solution for 4 hr.
Project description:Seedlings of Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 were treated with a cutin oligomeric mixture (COM) for 30 min. To evaluate if such treatment was able to induce transcriptional reprogramming related with plant immunity. The transcriptomic profiles were compared with those of the Mock treatment. The list of differentially expressed genes was generated to evaluate similarities with the profiles obtained with treatments with well described plant immune elicitors.
Project description:In order to identify relevant target genes of RAX1 (AT5G23000) involved in meristem initiation in Arabidopsis we generated dexamethasone inducible lines expressing either a mCherry-RAX1-GR or a mCherry-GR (mock construct) fusion protein. We analysed differential gene regulation after 4 hours of dexamethasone or mock treatment in 14 day-old seedlings. Paired-end sequencing was performed using 3 biological replicate for each genotype and differentially expressed genes were identified for the interaction of genotype and treatment.
Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) represents the most prevalent internal modification on messenger RNA, and requires a multicomponent m6A methyltransferase complex in mammals. How their plant counterparts determine the global m6A modification landscape and its molecular link to plant development remain elusive. Here we show that FKBP12 INTERACTING PROTEIN 37 KD (FIP37) is a core component of the m6A methyltransferase complex, which underlies control of shoot stem cell fate in Arabidopsis. The mutants lacking FIP37 exhibit massive overproliferation of shoot meristems and a transcriptome-wide loss of m6A RNA modifications. We further demonstrate that FIP37 mediates m6A RNA modification on key shoot meristem genes inversely correlated with their mRNA stability, thus confining their transcript levels to prevent shoot meristem overproliferation. Our results suggest an indispensable role of FIP37 in mediating m6A mRNA modification, which is required for maintaining the shoot meristem as a renewable source for continuously producing all aerial organs in plants.

Project description:F1 hybrids can outperform their parents in yield and vegetative biomass, features of hybrid vigor which form the basis of the hybrid seed industry. The yield advantage of the F1 is lost in the F2 and subsequent generations. In Arabidopsis, from F2 plants which have a F1like phenotype, we have by recurrent selection produced pure breeding F5/F6 linesHybrid Mimics, in which the characteristics of the F1 Hybrid are stabilized. These Hybrid Mimic lines, like the F1 Hybrid, have larger leaves than the parent plant, the leaves having increased photosynthetic cell numbers, and in some lines increased size of cells, suggesting an increased supply of photosynthate. A comparison of the differentially expressed genes in the F1 Hybrid with those of eight Hybrid Mimic lines has identified metabolic pathways altered in both; these pathways include down regulation of defense response pathways and altered abiotic response pathways. F6 Hybrid Mimic lines are mostly homozygous at each locus in the genome yet retain the large F1-like phenotype. Many alleles in the F6 plants, when they are homozygous, have expression levels different to the level in the parent. We consider this altered expression to be a consequence of trans-regulation of genes from one parent by genes from the other parent. Transregulation could also arise from epigenetic modifications in the F1. The pure breeding Hybrid Mimics have been valuable in probing the mechanisms of hybrid vigor and may also prove to be useful hybrid vigor equivalents in agriculture. Plant Materials: Seeds were sterilized and sown onto plates containing MSN medium (MS salts supplemented with 1% (w/v) sucrose, pH7 with KOH, 0.6% wt/vol Noble agar). After 2 days at 4°C, the plates were transferred to a growth room with conditions of 22°C/18°C (day/night) and 16h light/8h dark cycle under Philips Cool Daylight TLD 58W/840 fluorescent tubes providing a photosynthetic photon flux density of 130 - 150 umol photons m-2·s-1 as measured using a quantum meter (Model MQ-200 calibrated for electric light source, Apogee). At 18 days after sowing (DAS), the plants were transferred to soil and grown to the reproductive stage in a growth room with controlled light conditions (OSRAM L 36W/865 LumLux Daylight, 130 - 150 umol photons m-2·s-1). To minimize the edge effects, the positioning of both plates and trays on the shelves was rotated every two days. All the plants were grown under the condition described above unless specified. Plant sample preparation and RNA extraction: For the transcriptomes of 15 DAS plants, the aerial tissues of 15 day seedlings were sampled. For the transcriptomes of plants at 28 DAS, the four largest leaves of 28 day plants from the parental lines (C24, Ler), the reciprocal Hybrids and eight F4 Hybrid Mimic lines were harvested. Each sample comprised a pool of five plants. Two biological replicates of each sample were sequenced. Total RNA was isolated using QIAGEN RNeasy MiniKitTM following the product instructions. To eliminate variation in experimental conditions in different positions in the growth room, nine F4 plant lines were divided into two batches to ensure plants were grown on the same shelves in each experiment. Parental lines C24 and Ler and the F1 Hybrid from which the F4 lines derived from were grown under the same conditions in each experiment as controls. The first batch including samples C24 (RepA and RepB), Ler (RepA and RepB), C24 x Ler F1, F4-L1-1, F4-L1-2, F4-L2-1, F4-L2-2 and F4-S-1 were grown under the condition describe above, we also sampled the five smallest C24 seedlings and five smallest Ler seedlings among the population (n = 50); the mRNA sequencing was performed by the Australian Genome Research Facility (AGRF). The second batch including C24 (RepC and RepD), Ler (RepC and RepD), Ler x C24 F1 Hybrid, F4-L3-1, F4-L3-2, F4-L4-1 and F4-L4-2 were grown in the same light intensity as above but under different light tubes (SYLVANIA PREMIUM extra FL36W/865 Super Daylight deluxe light tube). For the transcriptome of the two F6 Hybrid Mimic lines at 15 DAS, C24, Ler, Ler x C24 F1 Hybrids and three siblings from each F6 line (L3-1-1-2 and L4-2-1-2) were grown on MS medium (MS salts supplemented with 1% (w/v) sucrose, pH 5.7 with KOH, add 0.6% wt/vol agar) with controlled light conditions (SYLVANIA PREMIUM extra FL36W/865 Super Daylight deluxe, 130 - 150 umol photons m-2·s-1). The mRNA sequencing service was provided by AGRF on the Illumina platform, 100bp paired ends.
