The sequence structure and phylogenetic analysis by complete mitochondrial genome of kohlrabi (Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes L.).

ABSTRACT: Kohlrabi (Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes L.) is an important dietary rhizome vegetable in the Brassicaceae family. However, to date, few mitochondrial genomic resources have been reported for kohlrabi. In this study, we obtained the complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of 219,964 bp from an individual green kohlrabi. A total of 61 genes were annotated, including 33 protein-coding genes, 23 transfer RNA genes, three ribosomal RNA genes, and two pseudo genes. In addition, 1,001 open reading frames and five RNA editing sites were annotated. Relative synonymous codon usage analysis revealed significant difference in usage frequency of synonymous codon. Phylogenetic inference showed that kohlrabi is closely related to B. oleracea var. botrytis. This study provides a good foundation for further understanding the relationship and evolutionary origins among Brassicaceae crops.

Project description:BackgroundClubroot disease caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae (Phytomyxea, Rhizaria) is one of the economically most important diseases of Brassica crops. The formation of hypertrophied roots accompanied by altered metabolism and hormone homeostasis is typical for infected plants. Not all roots of infected plants show the same phenotypic changes. While some roots remain uninfected, others develop galls of diverse size. The aim of this study was to analyse and compare the intra-plant heterogeneity of P. brassicae root galls and symptomless roots of the same host plants (Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes) collected from a commercial field in Austria using transcriptome analyses.ResultsTranscriptomes were markedly different between symptomless roots and gall tissue. Symptomless roots showed transcriptomic traits previously described for resistant plants. Genes involved in host cell wall synthesis and reinforcement were up-regulated in symptomless roots indicating elevated tolerance against P. brassicae. By contrast, genes involved in cell wall degradation and modification processes like expansion were up-regulated in root galls. Hormone metabolism differed between symptomless roots and galls. Brassinosteroid-synthesis was down-regulated in root galls, whereas jasmonic acid synthesis was down-regulated in symptomless roots. Cytokinin metabolism and signalling were up-regulated in symptomless roots with the exception of one CKX6 homolog, which was strongly down-regulated. Salicylic acid (SA) mediated defence response was up-regulated in symptomless roots, compared with root gall tissue. This is probably caused by a secreted benzoic acid/salicylic acid methyl transferase from the pathogen (PbBSMT), which was one of the highest expressed pathogen genes in gall tissue. The PbBSMT derived Methyl-SA potentially leads to increased pathogen tolerance in uninfected roots.ConclusionsInfected and uninfected roots of clubroot infected plants showed transcriptomic differences similar to those previously described between clubroot resistant and susceptible hosts. The here described intra-plant heterogeneity suggests, that for a better understanding of clubroot disease targeted, spatial analyses of clubroot infected plants will be vital in understanding this economically important disease.
