Transcription profiling of Populus euphratica roots and leaves in response to 150 mM NaCl
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Wild type Populus euphratica were multiplied by in vitro micropropagation and grown in aerated hydroponics using Long-Ashton nutrient solution. Plants were adapted to 150 mM NaCl by increasing the concentration in the nutrient solution over several days. Root and leaf samples were harvested after growing in 150 mM NaCl for 2 and 12 days.
Project description:Tieguanyin (TGY) and Shuixian (SX) cultivars of Camellia sinensis were selected to explore the mechanism underlying the accumulation of the rare earth element lanthanum through proteomics. Roots and fresh leaves of TGY and SX with low- and high-accumulation potential for lanthanum, respectively, were studied; 845 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified. Gene ontology analysis showed that the DEPs are involved in redox processes and related to molecular functions, such as defense and oxidative stress reactions, catalytic activity, and metal ion binding. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes metabolic pathway analysis showed that DEPs were associated with glutathione (GSH) and α-linolenic acid metabolism, plant pathogen interaction, and oxidative phosphorylation. Thirty-seven proteins in the GSH metabolism pathway showed significant differences, of which 18 GSH S-transferases show differential expression patterns in the root system.The expression multiples of GST (TEA004130.1) and GST (TEA032216.1) in T1L and T0L were 6.84 and 4.06, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in S1L and S0L. The lanthanum-induced activation of the GSH-related antioxidant defense system may cause the difference in TGY and SX. The LOX2.1 (TEA011765.1) and LOX2.1 (TEA011776.1 expression ratios) in the α-linolenic acid metabolic pathway were 2.44 and 6.43 in T1R and T0R, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in S1R snd S0R. The other differential proteins were also sig-nificantly upregulated in TGY leaves.The synthesis of specific substances induces lantha-num-associated defense responses in TGY, which is of great significance for the stability of its yield.
Project description:The experiment aims to analyze the effect of inoculation with Sinorhizobium medicae MD4 of on the transcriptome of the Medicago truncatula roots of N-limited plants. We divided the roots systems into two parts; one of them was supplied with nutrient solution with mineral N (0.5 mM for N-limited plants) whereas the non-N treated part was kept in nutrient solution without mineral N. All roots were inoculated 48h after initiation of the N treatments. We collected the roots the non-N treated side of the split roots system and we isolated total RNA for RNAseq analysis. Root transcriptomes were analyze before inoculation, at 1 and 2 days post-inoculation.
Project description:The experiment aims to analyze the effect of systemic signaling of plant N demand on the transcriptome of Medicago truncatula roots inoculated with Sinorhizobium medicae MD4 at 2, 4, and 7 days post-inoculation (dpi). We divided the roots systems into two parts; one of them was supplied with nutrient solution with mineral N (10 mM NH4NO3 for N-satisfied plants, 0.5 mM for N-limited plants) whereas the non-N treated part was kept in nutrient solution without mineral N. All roots were inoculated 48h after initiation of the N treatments. To characterize specifically the impact of systemic signaling of N demand, we collected the roots the non-N treated sides of the split roots systems and we isolated total RNA for RNAseq analysis. Root transcriptomes of N-limited and N-satisfied plants were compared at 2, 4 and 7 dpi.
Project description:The experiment aims to investigate the effect of the sunn mutation on systemic signaling of the plant N demand in Medicago truncatula roots inoculated with Sinorhizobium medicae MD4 at 2 and 7 days post-inoculation (dpi). We compared the TR122/sunn-2 mutant to the wild type Jemalong A17. For each plant genotype, we divided the roots systems into two parts; one of them was supplied with a nutrient solution with mineral N (10 mM NH4NO3 for N-satisfied plants, 0.5 mM for N-limited plants) whereas the non-N treated part was kept in a nutrient solution without mineral N. All roots were inoculated 48h after initiation of the N treatments. To characterize specifically the impact of systemic signaling of N demand, we collected for both genotypes the roots of the non-N treated sides of the split roots systems, and we isolated total RNA for RNAseq analysis. Root transcriptomes of N-limited and N-satisfied plants were compared in both genotypes at 2 or 7 dpi.
Project description:Populus x canescens was inoculated with Paxillus involutus and grown in a climate chamber for 13 weeks. Afterwards, plants were salt stressed for 18 additional days with 150 mM NaCl in the nutrient solution. This resulted in 4 different treatments: no mycorrhiza<br>control (NC), mycorrhiza/control (MC), no mycorrhiza/salt (NS), mycorrhiza/salt (MS).
Project description:The commercial tomato cultivar âKommeetâ was grafted either onto the tomato cultivar âMoneymakerâ (sub-optimal temperature sensitive) or onto the line accession âLA 1777â of the wild tomato species S. habrochaites (sub-optimal temperature tolerant) in a heated glasshouse. Grafted tomato plants were grown in a nutrient film technique system with re-circulating nutrient solution resulting in different root temperature (T), which was either optimal (day and night 25±0.6°C) or sub-optimal (day and night 15±0.4°C) while the air T was optimal (day and night 25±0.6°C) throughout the experimental procedure. After 30 days of differential treatment, differences in growth, physiology, and global gene expression in roots and leaves of all grafting and T combinations were investigated.
Project description:Cesium (Cs+) is a potentially toxic mineral element that is released into the environment and taken up by plants. Although Cs+ is chemically similar to potassium (K+), and much is known about K+ transport mechanisms, it is not clear through which K+ transport mechanisms Cs+ is taken up by plant roots. In this study, the role of AtHAK5 in high affinity K+ and Cs+ uptake was characterized. It is demonstrated that AtHAK5 is localized to the plasma membrane under conditions of K+ deprivation, when it is expressed. 9 samples were used in this experiment.
Project description:affy_nitrogen_medicago - affy_nitrogen_medicago - Experiment has been designed to characterize the molecular expression patterns associated to a contrasted modification of the nitrogen status of the whole plant. The systemic effects of nitrogen status modifications are investigated and compared on non nodulated plant supplied with NO3, NH4 or nodulated plants (Sinorhizobium meliloti 2011) supplied with air. The root systems were separated in two compartments of unequal sizes (split root system). Two treatments were applied on the larger compartment in order to modulate the nitrogen status of the plant: for the S treatment, roots are supplied with nutrient solution containing 10 mM NH4NO3,, whereas for the C treatment, roots are supplied with nitrogen free medium. In the case of N2 fixing plants, N limitation was obtained by replacing air by a mixture of Ar and O2 80 per cent and 20 per cent. The effects of these treatments were investigated on roots of the minor compartment supplied continuously with either NO3 1 mM, NH4 1 mM or air (N2) and on the shoots. We were also interested in the molecular expression patterns associated to the roots deprived of N.-The root system of non-nodulated (NO3- and NH4+) or nodulated (N2) plants is split into two unequal parts and each one is installed in a separate compartment. For the S treatement, the major root part is supplied with NH4NO3 10 mM whereas the minor part is supplied with either NO3- 1mM, NH4+ 1mM or N2. For the C treatement, the major root part is supplied with nitrogen-free nutrient solution whereas the minor part is supplied with either NO3- 1mM, NH4plus 1mM or N2. Each treatement is four days long. Samples of roots of six biological types (NO3S, NO3C, NH4S, NH4C, N2S and N2C) were collected. Two biological repeats per biological types have been analyzed. The effect of the S and C treatments were investigated for each N sources by comparing Affymetrix transcriptomes (NO3C vs NO3S, NH4C vs NH4S, N2C vs N2S).
