PacBio Single-Molecule Long-Read Sequencing Provides New Light on the Complexity of Full-Length Transcripts in Cattle.

ABSTRACT: Cattle (Bos taurus) is one of the most widely distributed livestock species in the world, and provides us with high-quality milk and meat which have a huge impact on the quality of human life. Therefore, accurate and complete transcriptome and genome annotation are of great value to the research of cattle breeding. In this study, we used error-corrected PacBio single-molecule real-time (SMRT) data to perform whole-transcriptome profiling in cattle. Then, 22.5 Gb of subreads was generated, including 381,423 circular consensus sequences (CCSs), among which 276,295 full-length non-chimeric (FLNC) sequences were identified. After correction by Illumina short reads, we obtained 22,353 error-corrected isoforms. A total of 305 alternative splicing (AS) events and 3,795 alternative polyadenylation (APA) sites were detected by transcriptome structural analysis. Furthermore, we identified 457 novel genes, 120 putative transcription factors (TFs), and 569 novel long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). Taken together, this research improves our understanding and provides new insights into the complexity of full-length transcripts in cattle.

Project description:BackgroundThe pearl oyster Pinctada fucata martensii is an economically valuable shellfish for seawater pearl production, and production of pearls depends on its growth. To date, the molecular mechanisms of the growth of this species remain poorly understood. The transcriptome sequencing has been considered to understanding of the complexity of mechanisms of the growth of P. f. martensii. The recently released genome sequences of P. f. martensii, as well as emerging Pacific Bioscience (PacBio) single-molecular sequencing technologies, provide an opportunity to thoroughly investigate these molecular mechanisms.ResultsHerein, the full-length transcriptome was analysed by combining PacBio single-molecule long-read sequencing (PacBio sequencing) and Illumina sequencing. A total of 20.65 Gb of clean data were generated, including 574,561 circular consensus reads, among which 443,944 full-length non-chimeric (FLNC) sequences were identified. Through transcript clustering analysis of FLNC reads, 32,755 consensus isoforms were identified, including 32,095 high-quality consensus sequences. After removing redundant reads, 16,388 transcripts were obtained, and 641 fusion transcripts were derived by performing fusion transcript prediction of consensus sequences. Alternative splicing analysis of the 16,388 transcripts was performed after accounting for redundancy, and 9097 gene loci were detected, including 1607 new gene loci and 14,946 newly discovered transcripts. The original boundary of 11,235 genes on the chromosomes was corrected, 12,025 complete open reading frame sequences and 635 long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) were predicted, and functional annotation of 13,482 new transcripts was achieved. Two thousand three hundred eighteen alternative splicing events were detected. A total of 228 differentially expressed transcripts (DETs) were identified between the largest (L) and smallest (S) pearl oysters. Compared with the S, the L showed 99 and 129 significantly up-and down-regulated DETs, respectively. Six of these DETs were further confirmed by quantitative real-time RT-PCR (RT-qPCR) in independent experiment.ConclusionsOur results significantly improve existing gene models and genome annotations, optimise the genome structure, and in-depth understanding of the complexity and diversity of the differential growth patterns of P. f. martensii.

Project description:BackgroundValsa canker is a serious disease in the stem of Malus sieversii, caused by Valsa mali. However, little is known about the global response mechanism in M. sieversii to V. mali infection.ResultsPhytohormone jasmonic acid (JA) and salicylic acid (SA) profiles and transcriptome analysis were used to elaborate on the dynamic response mechanism. We determined that the JA was initially produced to respond to the necrotrophic pathogen V. mali infection at the early response stage, then get synergistically transduced with SA to respond at the late response stage. Furthermore, we adopted Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) full-length sequencing to identify differentially expressed transcripts (DETs) during the canker response stage. We obtained 52,538 full-length transcripts, of which 8139 were DETs. Total 1336 lncRNAs, 23,737 alternative polyadenylation (APA) sites and 3780 putative transcription factors (TFs) were identified. Additionally, functional annotation analysis of DETs indicated that the wild apple response to the infection of V. mali involves plant-pathogen interaction, plant hormone signal transduction, flavonoid biosynthesis, and phenylpropanoid biosynthesis. The co-expression network of the differentially expressed TFs revealed 264 candidate TF transcripts. Among these candidates, the WRKY family was the most abundant. The MsWRKY7 and MsWRKY33 were highly correlated at the early response stage, and MsWRKY6, MsWRKY7, MsWRKY19, MsWRKY33, MsWRKY40, MsWRKY45, MsWRKY51, MsWRKY61, MsWRKY75 were highly correlated at the late stage.ConclusionsThe full-length transcriptomic analysis revealed a series of immune responsive events in M. sieversii in response to V. mali infection. The phytohormone signal pathway regulatory played an important role in the response stage. Additionally, the enriched disease resistance pathways and differentially expressed TFs dynamics collectively contributed to the immune response. This study provides valuable insights into a dynamic response in M. sieversii upon the necrotrophic pathogen V. mali infection, facilitates understanding of response mechanisms to canker disease for apple, and provides supports in the identification of potential resistance genes in M. sieversii.
