Genomic Survey of PEBP Gene Family in Rice: Identification, Phylogenetic Analysis, and Expression Profiles in Organs and under Abiotic Stresses.

ABSTRACT: Phosphatidylethanolamine-binding-protein (PEBP) domain-containing proteins play important roles in multiple developmental processes of plants; however, functions of few members in the PEBP gene family have been elucidated in rice and other crops. In this study, we found that twenty OsPEBPs genes identified in rice are not evenly distributed on the chromosomes. Four colinear pairs are identified, suggesting the duplication of OsPEBPs during evolution. The OsPEBPs are classified into six subgroups by phylogenetic analysis. The structure of all the OsPEBP genes and encoded proteins are similar. The 262 PEBP domain-containing proteins from crops are divided into six groups. The number of colinear pairs varies between rice and other crops. More than thirty cis-acting elements in the promoter region of OsPEBPs are discovered. Expression profiles of OsPEBP genes are differential. Most of the OsPEBPs expression can be regulated by NaCl, ABA, JA, and light, indicating that OsPEBPs may be involved in the control of the response to the environmental signals. These results lay sound foundation to further explore their functions in development of rice and crops.

Project description:The present work represents a pioneering effort, being the first to analyze genomic and transcriptomic data from Vigna unguiculata (cowpea) kinases. We evaluated the cowpea kinome considering its genome-wide distribution and structural characteristics (at the gene and protein levels), sequence evolution, conservation among Viridiplantae species, and gene expression in three cowpea genotypes under different stress situations, including biotic (injury followed by virus inoculation-CABMV or CPSMV) and abiotic (root dehydration). The structural features of cowpea kinases (VuPKs) indicated that 1,293 bona fide VuPKs covered 20 groups and 118 different families. The RLK-Pelle was the largest group, with 908 members. Insights on the mechanisms of VuPK genomic expansion and conservation among Viridiplantae species indicated dispersed and tandem duplications as major forces for VuPKs' distribution pattern and high orthology indexes and synteny with other legume species, respectively. K a /K s ratios showed that almost all (91%) of the tandem duplication events were under purifying selection. Candidate cis-regulatory elements were associated with different transcription factors (TFs) in the promoter regions of the RLK-Pelle group. C2H2 TFs were closely associated with the promoter regions of almost all scrutinized families for the mentioned group. At the transcriptional level, it was suggested that VuPK up-regulation was stress, genotype, or tissue dependent (or a combination of them). The most prominent families in responding (up-regulation) to all the analyzed stresses were RLK-Pelle_DLSV and CAMK_CAMKL-CHK1. Concerning root dehydration, it was suggested that the up-regulated VuPKs are associated with ABA hormone signaling, auxin hormone transport, and potassium ion metabolism. Additionally, up-regulated VuPKs under root dehydration potentially assist in a critical physiological strategy of the studied cowpea genotype in this assay, with activation of defense mechanisms against biotic stress while responding to root dehydration. This study provides the foundation for further studies on the evolution and molecular function of VuPKs.

Project description:BackgroundBy 2050, the world population will increase to 10 billion which urged global demand for food production to double. Plant disease and land drought will make the situation more dire, and safer and environment-friendly materials are thus considered as a new countermeasure. The rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae, causes one of the most destructive diseases of cultivated rice worldwide that seriously threatens rice production. Unfortunately, traditional breeding nor chemical approaches along control it well. Nowadays, nanotechnology stands as a new weapon against these mounting challenges and silica nanoparticles (SiO2 NPs) have been considered as potential new safer agrochemicals recently but the systematically studies remain limited, especially in rice.ResultsSalicylic acid (SA) is a key plant hormone essential for establishing plant resistance to several pathogens and its further affected a special form of induced resistance, the systemic acquired resistance (SAR), which considered as an important aspect of plant innate immunity from the locally induced disease resistance to the whole plant. Here we showed that SiO2 NPs could stimulate plant immunity to protect rice against M. oryzae through foliar treatment that significantly decreased disease severity by nearly 70% within an appropriate concentration range. Excessive concentration of foliar treatment led to disordered intake and abnormal SA responsive genes expressions which weaken the plant resistance and even aggravated the disease. Importantly, this SA-dependent fungal resistance could achieve better results with root treatment through a SAR manner with no phytotoxicity since the orderly and moderate absorption. What's more, root treatment with SiO2 NPs could also promote root development which was better to deal with drought.ConclusionsTaken together, our findings not only revealed SiO2 NPs as a potential effective and safe strategy to protect rice against biotic and abiotic stresses, but also identify root treatment for the appropriate application method since it seems not causing negative effects and even have promotion on root development.
