Identification of an ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter Implicated in Aluminum Tolerance in Wild Soybean (Glycine soja).

ABSTRACT: The toxicity of aluminum (Al) in acidic soil limits global crop yield. The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter-like gene superfamily has functions and structures related to transportation, so it responds to aluminum stress in plants. In this study, one half-size ABC transporter gene was isolated from wild soybeans (Glycine soja) and designated GsABCI1. By real-time qPCR, GsABCI1 was identified as not specifically expressed in tissues. Phenotype identification of the overexpressed transgenic lines showed increased tolerance to aluminum. Furthermore, GsABCI1 transgenic plants exhibited some resistance to aluminum treatment by ion translocation or changing root components. This work on the GsABCI1 identified the molecular function, which provided useful information for understanding the gene function of the ABC family and the development of new aluminum-tolerant soybean germplasm.

Two Half-Size ATP-Binding Cassette Transporters Are Implicated in Aluminum Tolerance in Soybean.

Project description:Aluminum (Al) toxicity severely restricts plant production in acidic soils. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters participate in plant tolerance to various environmental stresses. However, ABC transporters implicated in soybean Al tolerance are still rare. Here, we functionally characterized two half-size ABC transporters (GmABCB48 and GmABCB52) in soybean. Expression analysis showed that GmABCB48 and GmABCB52 were induced only in the roots, especially in the root tips. Both GmABCB48 and GmABCB52 were localized at the plasma membrane. Overexpression of GmABCB48 or GmABCB52 in Arabidopsis reduced Al accumulation in roots and enhanced Al tolerance. However, expression of GmABCB48 or GmABCB52 in yeast cells did not affect Al uptake. Furthermore, transgenic lines expressing GmABCB48 or GmABCB52 had lower Al content in root cell walls than wild-type plants under Al stress. Further investigation showed that the Al content in cell wall fractions (pectin and hemicellulose 1) of transgenic lines was significantly lower than that of wild-type plants, which was coincident with the changes of pectin and hemicellulose 1 content under Al exposure. These results indicate that GmABCB48 and GmABCB52 confer Al tolerance by regulating the cell wall polysaccharides metabolism to reduce Al accumulation in roots.

Identification of a bacterial-type ATP-binding cassette transporter implicated in aluminum tolerance in sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.).

Project description:Aluminum (Al) toxicity in acidic soils severely reduces crop production worldwide. Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) is an important agricultural crop widely grown in tropical and subtropical regions, where Al toxicity is prevalent. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters play key roles in the development of plants and include the member sensitive to aluminum rhizotoxicity 1 (STAR1), which is reported to be associated with Al tolerance in a few plant species. However, a STAR1 homolog has not been characterized in sorghum with respect to Al tolerance. Here, we identified and characterized a SbSTAR1 gene in sweet sorghum encoding the nucleotide-binding domain of a bacterial-type ABC transporter. The transcriptional expression of SbSTAR1 is induced by Al in a time- and dosage-dependent manner in root, especially in root tip, which is the key site of Al toxicity in plants. The typical Al-associated transcription factor SbSTOP1 showed transcriptional regulation of SbSTAR1. SbSTAR1 was present at both the cytoplasm and nuclei. Overexpression of SbSTAR1 significantly enhanced the Al tolerance of transgenic plants, which possibly via regulating the hemicellulose content in root cell wall. This study provides the first ABC protein in sorghum implicated in Al tolerance, suggesting the existence of a SbSTAR1-mediated Al tolerance mechanism in sorghum.

Metabolomic Variability of Different Soybean Genotypes: β-Carotene-Enhanced (Glycine max), Wild (Glycine soja), and Hybrid (Glycine max × Glycine soja) Soybeans.

Project description:We obtained a new hybrid soybean (Hybrid) by hybridizing β-carotene-enhanced soybean (BCE; Glycine max L.) containing the phytoene synthase-2A-carotene desaturase gene and wild-type soybean (Wild; Glycine soja). To investigate metabolic changes between variants, we performed metabolic profiling of leaves (three growth stages) and seeds. Multivariate analyses revealed significant metabolic differences between genotypes in seeds and leaves, with seeds showing accumulation of phytosterols, tocopherols, and carotenoids (BCE only), indicating co-induction of the methylerythritol 4-phosphate and mevalonic acid pathways. Additionally, Hybrid produced intermediate levels of carotenoids and high levels of amino acids. Principal component analysis revealed metabolic discrimination between growth stages of soybean leaves and identified differences in leaf groups according to different genotypes at 8, 12, and 16 weeks, with Wild showing higher levels of environmental stress-related compounds relative to BCE and Hybrid leaves. The metabolic profiling approach could be a useful tool to identify metabolic links in various soybean cultivars.

Identification of a Novel Salt Tolerance-Related Locus in Wild Soybean (Glycine soja Sieb. & Zucc.).

Project description:Salinity is an important abiotic stress factor that affects growth and yield of soybean. NY36-87 is a wild soybean germplasm with high salt tolerance. In this study, two F2:3 mapping populations derived from NY36-87 and two salt-sensitive soybean cultivars, Zhonghuang39 and Peking, were used to map salt tolerance-related genes. The two populations segregated as 1 (tolerant):2 (heterozygous):1 (sensitive), indicating a Mendelian segregation model. Using simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers together with the bulked segregant analysis (BSA) mapping strategy, we mapped a salt tolerance locus on chromosome 03 in F2:3 population Zhonghuang39×NY36-87 to a 98-kb interval, in which the known gene GmSALT3 co-segregated with the salt tolerance locus. In the F2:3 population of Peking×NY36-87, the dominant salt tolerance-associated gene was detected and mapped on chromosome 18. We named this gene GmSALT18 and fine mapped it to a 241-kb region. Time course analysis and a grafting experiment confirmed that Peking accumulated more Na+ in the shoot via a root-based mechanism. These findings reveal that the tolerant wild soybean line NY36-87 contains salt tolerance-related genes GmSALT3 and GmSALT18, providing genetic material and a novel locus for breeding salt-tolerant soybean.

Genetic architecture of wild soybean (Glycine soja) response to soybean cyst nematode (Heterodera glycines).

Project description:The soybean cyst nematode (SCN) is one of the most destructive pathogens of soybean plants worldwide. Host-plant resistance is an environmentally friendly method to mitigate SCN damage. To date, the resistant soybean cultivars harbor limited genetic variation, and some are losing resistance. Thus, a better understanding of the genetic mechanisms of the SCN resistance, as well as developing diverse resistant soybean cultivars, is urgently needed. In this study, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted using 1032 wild soybean (Glycine soja) accessions with over 42,000 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to understand the genetic architecture of G. soja resistance to SCN race 1. Ten SNPs were significantly associated with the response to race 1. Three SNPs on chromosome 18 were localized within the previously identified quantitative trait loci (QTLs), and two of which were localized within a strong linkage disequilibrium block encompassing a nucleotide-binding (NB)-ARC disease resistance gene (Glyma.18G102600). Genes encoding methyltransferases, the calcium-dependent signaling protein, the leucine-rich repeat kinase family protein, and the NB-ARC disease resistance protein, were identified as promising candidate genes. The identified SNPs and candidate genes can not only shed light on the molecular mechanisms underlying SCN resistance, but also can facilitate soybean improvement employing wild genetic resources.

Global transcriptome profiling of wild soybean (Glycine soja) roots under NaHCO3 treatment.

Project description:BackgroundPlant roots are the primary site of perception and injury for saline-alkaline stress. The current knowledge of saline-alkaline stress transcriptome is mostly focused on saline (NaCl) stress and only limited information on alkaline (NaHCO3) stress is available.ResultsUsing Affymetrix Soybean GeneChip, we conducted transcriptional profiling on Glycine soja roots subjected to 50 mmol/L NaHCO3 treatment. In a total of 7088 probe sets, 3307 were up-regulated and 5720 were down-regulated at various time points. The number of significantly stress regulated genes increased dramatically after 3 h stress treatment and peaked at 6 h. GO enrichment test revealed that most of the differentially expressed genes were involved in signal transduction, energy, transcription, secondary metabolism, transporter, disease and defence response. We also detected 11 microRNAs regulated by NaHCO3 stress.ConclusionsThis is the first comprehensive wild soybean root transcriptome analysis under alkaline stress. These analyses have identified an inventory of genes with altered expression regulated by alkaline stress. The data extend the current understanding of wild soybean alkali stress response by providing a set of robustly selected, differentially expressed genes for further investigation.

Comparative analysis of complete plastid genomes from wild soybean (Glycine soja) and nine other Glycine species.

Project description:The plastid genomes of different plant species exhibit significant variation, thereby providing valuable markers for exploring evolutionary relationships and population genetics. Glycine soja (wild soybean) is recognized as the wild ancestor of cultivated soybean (G. max), representing a valuable genetic resource for soybean breeding programmes. In the present study, the complete plastid genome of G. soja was sequenced using Illumina paired-end sequencing and then compared it for the first time with previously reported plastid genome sequences from nine other Glycine species. The G. soja plastid genome was 152,224 bp in length and possessed a typical quadripartite structure, consisting of a pair of inverted repeats (IRa/IRb; 25,574 bp) separated by small (178,963 bp) and large (83,181 bp) single-copy regions, with a 51-kb inversion in the large single-copy region. The genome encoded 134 genes, including 87 protein-coding genes, eight ribosomal RNA genes, and 39 transfer RNA genes, and possessed 204 randomly distributed microsatellites, including 15 forward, 25 tandem, and 34 palindromic repeats. Whole-plastid genome comparisons revealed an overall high degree of sequence similarity between G. max and G. gracilis and some divergence in the intergenic spacers of other species. Greater numbers of indels and SNP substitutions were observed compared with G. cyrtoloba. The sequence of the accD gene from G. soja was highly divergent from those of the other species except for G. max and G. gracilis. Phylogenomic analyses of the complete plastid genomes and 76 shared genes yielded an identical topology and indicated that G. soja is closely related to G. max and G. gracilis. The complete G. soja genome sequenced in the present study is a valuable resource for investigating the population and evolutionary genetics of Glycine species and can be used to identify related species.

Identifications of QTLs and Candidate Genes Associated with Pseudomonas syringae Responses in Cultivated Soybean (Glycine max) and Wild Soybean (Glycine soja)

Project description:Soybeans (Glycine max) are a key food crop, serving as a valuable source of both oil and plant-derived protein. Pseudomonas syringae pv. glycinea (Psg) is among the most aggressive and prevalent pathogens affecting soybean production, causing a form of bacterial spot disease that impacts soybean leaves and thereby reduces crop yields. In this study, 310 natural soybean varieties were screened for Psg resistance and susceptibility. The identified susceptible and resistant varieties were then used for linkage mapping, BSA-seq, and whole genome sequencing (WGS) analyses aimed at identifying key QTLs associated with Psg responses. Candidate Psg-related genes were further confirmed through WGS and qPCR analyses. Candidate gene haplotype analyses were used to explore the associations between haplotypes and soybean Psg resistance. In addition, landrace and wild soybean plants were found to exhibit a higher degree of Psg resistance as compared to cultivated soybean varieties. In total, 10 QTLs were identified using chromosome segment substitution lines derived from Suinong14 (cultivated soybean) and ZYD00006 (wild soybean). Glyma.10g230200 was found to be induced in response to Psg, with the Glyma.10g230200 haplotype corresponding to soybean disease resistance. The QTLs identified herein can be leveraged to guide the marker-assisted breeding of soybean cultivars that exhibit partial resistance to Psg. Moreover, further functional and molecular studies of Glyma.10g230200 have the potential to offer insight into the mechanistic basis for soybean Psg resistance.
