De Novo Assembly Transcriptome Analysis Reveals the Preliminary Molecular Mechanism of Primordium Formation in Pleurotus tuoliensis.

ABSTRACT: Primordium formation is extremely important for yield of Pleurotus tuoliensis. However, the molecular mechanism underlying primordium formation is largely unknown. This study investigated the transcriptional properties during primordium formation of P. tuoliensis by comparing transcriptome. Clean reads were assembled into 57,075 transcripts and 6874 unigenes. A total of 1397 differentially expressed genes were identified (26 DEGs altered in all stages). GO and KEGG enrichment analysis showed that these DEGs were involved in "oxidoreductase activity", "glycolysis/gluconeogenesis", "MAPK signaling pathways", and "ribosomes". Our results support further understanding of the transcriptional changes and molecular processes underlying primordium formation and differentiation of P. tuoliensis.

De Novo Sequencing and Transcriptome Analysis of Pleurotus eryngii subsp. tuoliensis (Bailinggu) Mycelia in Response to Cold Stimulation.

Project description:Cold stimulation of Bailinggu's mycelia is the main factor that triggers primordia initiation for successful production of fruiting bodies under commercial cultivation. Yet, the molecular-level mechanisms involved in mycelia response to cold stimulation are still unclear. Here, we performed comparative transcriptomic analysis using RNA-Seq technology to better understand the gene expression regulation during different temporal stages of cold stimulation in Bailinggu. A total of 21,558 Bailinggu mycelia unigenes were de novo assembled and annotated from four libraries (control at 25 °C, plus cold stimulation treatments at -3 °C for a duration of 1-2 days, 5-6 days, and 9-10 days). GO and KEGG pathway analysis indicated that functional groups of differentially expressed unigenes associated with cell wall and membrane stabilization, calcium signaling and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) pathways, and soluble sugars and protein biosynthesis and metabolism pathways play a vital role in Bailinggu's response to cold stimulation. Six hundred and seven potential EST-based SSRs loci were identified in these unigenes, and 100 EST-SSR primers were randomly selected for validation. The overall polymorphism rate was 92% by using 10 wild strains of Bailinggu. Therefore, these results can serve as a valuable resource for a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms associated with Bailinggu's response to cold stimulation.

Transcriptomics Analysis of Primordium Formation in Pleurotus eryngii.

Project description:Primordium formation is an important stage preceding the growth and development of the Pleurotus eryngii fruiting body. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying primordium formation remain unclear. In the present study, comparative transcriptomics was performed between mature mycelia and primordium to analyze the transcriptional properties during primordium formation in P. eryngii. A total of 19,655 differentially expressed genes (10,718 upregulated genes and 8937 downregulated genes) were identified. These differentially expressed genes were involved in cell wall degradation, carbohydrate hydrolysis, light perception, and cAMP signal transduction. These results aid further understanding of the transcriptional changes and the molecular processes underlying primordium formation and differentiation, which may lay the foundation for improving the cultivation and quality control of P. eryngii.

A genetic linkage map of Pleurotus tuoliensis integrated with physical mapping of the de novo sequenced genome and the mating type loci.

Project description:BackgroundPleurotus tuoliensis (Bailinggu) is a commercially cultivated mushroom species with an increasing popularity in China and other Asian countries. Commercial profits are now low, mainly due to a low yield, long cultivation period and sensitivity to diseases. Breeding efforts are thus required to improve agronomical important traits. Developing saturated genetic linkage and physical maps is a start for applying genetic and molecular approaches to accelerate the precise breeding programs.ResultsHere we present a genetic linkage map for P. tuoliensis constructed by using 115 haploid monokaryons derived from a hybrid strain H6. One thousand one hundred and eighty-two SNP markers developed by 2b-RAD (type IIB restriction-site associated DNA) approach were mapped to 12 linkage groups. The map covers 1073 cM with an average marker spacing of 1.0 cM. The genome of P. tuoliensis was de novo sequenced as 40.8 Mb and consisted of 500 scaffolds (>500 bp), which showed a high level of colinearity to the genome of P. eryngii var. eryngii. A total of 97.4% SNP markers (1151) were physically localized on 78 scaffolds, and the physical length of these anchored scaffolds were 33.9 Mb representing 83.1% of the whole genome. Mating type loci A and B were mapped on separate linkage groups and identified physically on the assembled genomes. Five putative pheromone receptors and two putative pheromone precursors were identified for the mating type B locus.ConclusionsThis study reported a first genetic linkage map integrated with physical mapping of the de novo sequenced genome and the mating type loci of an important cultivated mushroom in China, P. tuoliensis. The de novo sequenced and annotated genome, assembled using a 2b-RAD generated linkage map, provides a basis for marker-assisted breeding of this economic important mushroom species.

A Comparative Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Physiological Maturation Properties of Mycelia in Pleurotus tuoliensis.

Project description:Pleurotus tuoliensis is a precious edible fungus with extremely high nutritive and medicinal value. The cultivation period of P. tuoliensis is longer than those of other Pleurotus species, which is mainly due to a longer mycelium physiological maturation period (30-60 days). Currently, the molecular processes underlying physiological maturation of the mycelium remain unclear. We performed a comparative transcriptomic analysis of immature and mature mycelia using RNA-seq. De novo transcriptome assembly resulted in identification of 17,030 unigenes. 451 differentially expressed genes-including those encoding nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDPK), glycoside hydrolase family proteins, exopolygalacturonase, and versatile peroxidases-were identified. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses revealed that nucleotide synthesis and energy metabolism are highly active during the physiological maturation of mycelia, and genes related to these pathways were significantly upregulated in mature mycelia. NDPK is predicted to be essential for mycelia maturation. Our findings contribute to a comprehensive understanding of mycelia maturation in a commercially important fungal species. Future efforts will focus on the function of NDPK and the mechanism by which it regulates mycelia maturation.

De novo assembly of a tadpole shrimp (Triops newberryi) transcriptome and preliminary differential gene expression analysis.

Project description:Next-generation sequencing techniques, such as RNA sequencing, have provided a wealth of genomic information for nonmodel species. Transcriptomic information can be used to quantify the patterns of gene expression, which can identify how environmental differences invoke organismal stress responses and provide a gauge in predicting species adaptability. In our study, we used RNA sequencing to characterize the first transcriptome from a naupliar tadpole shrimp (Triops newberryi) to identify the genes expressed during the early life history stages and which could be important for future genomic studies. RNA was extracted from naupliar T. newberryi that were reared in a laboratory-controlled setting and in two different water types, a native and a non-native condition. A total of six replicates, three per condition, were sequenced with the Illumina Hi-Seq 2000 achieving 365 M 50-nt reads. High-quality reads were produced and de novo assembly was used to construct a T. newberryi transcriptome that was approximately 24.8 M base pairs. More than 10 000 peptides were predicted from the assembly, and genes were sorted into gene ontology categories. The use of different water conditions allowed for a preliminary differential gene expression analysis in order to compare the changes in gene expression between conditions. There were 299 differentially expressed genes between water conditions that might serve as a focal point for future genomic studies of Triops acclimation to different environments. The Triops transcriptome could serve as vital genomic information for additional studies on Branchiopod crustaceans.

Informed kmer selection for de novo transcriptome assembly.

Project description:MotivationDe novo transcriptome assembly is an integral part for many RNA-seq workflows. Common applications include sequencing of non-model organisms, cancer or meta transcriptomes. Most de novo transcriptome assemblers use the de Bruijn graph (DBG) as the underlying data structure. The quality of the assemblies produced by such assemblers is highly influenced by the exact word length k As such no single kmer value leads to optimal results. Instead, DBGs over different kmer values are built and the assemblies are merged to improve sensitivity. However, no studies have investigated thoroughly the problem of automatically learning at which kmer value to stop the assembly. Instead a suboptimal selection of kmer values is often used in practice.ResultsHere we investigate the contribution of a single kmer value in a multi-kmer based assembly approach. We find that a comparative clustering of related assemblies can be used to estimate the importance of an additional kmer assembly. Using a model fit based algorithm we predict the kmer value at which no further assemblies are necessary. Our approach is tested with different de novo assemblers for datasets with different coverage values and read lengths. Further, we suggest a simple post processing step that significantly improves the quality of multi-kmer assemblies.ConclusionWe provide an automatic method for limiting the number of kmer values without a significant loss in assembly quality but with savings in assembly time. This is a step forward to making multi-kmer methods more reliable and easier to use.Availability and implementationA general implementation of our approach can be found under: https://github.com/SchulzLab/KREATIONSupplementary information: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.Contactmschulz@mmci.uni-saarland.de.

De novo transcriptome assembly and preliminary analyses of two avian malaria parasites, Plasmodium delichoni and Plasmodium homocircumflexum.

Project description:Parasites of the genus Plasmodium infect a wide array of hosts, causing malaria in all major groups of terrestrial vertebrates including primates, reptiles, and birds. Molecular mechanisms explaining why some Plasmodium species are virulent, while other closely related malaria pathogens are relatively benign in the same hosts, remain unclear. Here, we present the RNA sequencing and subsequent transcriptome assembly of two avian Plasmodium parasites which can eventually be used to better understand the genetic mechanisms underlying Plasmodium species pathogenicity in an avian host. Plasmodium homocircumflexum, a cryptic, pathogenic species that often causes mortality and Plasmodium delichoni, a newly described, relatively benign malaria parasite that does not kill its hosts, were used to experimentally infect two Eurasian siskins (Carduelis spinus). RNA extractions were performed and RNA sequencing was completed using high throughput Illumina sequencing. Using established bioinformatics pipelines, the sequencing data from both species were used to generate transcriptomes using published Plasmodium species genomes as a scaffold. The finalized transcriptome of P. homocircumflexum contained 21,612 total contigs while that of P. delichoni contained 12,048 contigs. We were able to identify many genes implicated in erythrocyte invasion actively expressed in both P. homocircumflexum and P. delichoni, including the well described vaccine candidates Apical Membrane Antigen-1 (AMA-1) and Merozoite Surface Protein 1 (MSP1). This work acts as a stepping stone to increase available data on avian Plasmodium parasites, thus enabling future research into the evolution of pathogenicity in malaria.

Effect of de novo transcriptome assembly on transcript quantification.

Project description:Correct quantification of transcript expression is essential to understand the functional elements in different physiological conditions. For the organisms without the reference transcriptome, de novo transcriptome assembly must be carried out prior to quantification. However, a large number of erroneous contigs produced by the assemblers might result in unreliable estimation. In this regard, this study investigates how assembly quality affects the performance of quantification based on de novo transcriptome assembly. We examined the over-extended and incomplete contigs, and demonstrated that assembly completeness has a strong impact on the estimation of contig abundance. Then we investigated the behavior of the quantifiers with respect to sequence ambiguity which might be originally presented in the transcriptome or accidentally produced by assemblers. The results suggested that the quantifiers often over-estimate the expression of family-collapse contigs and under-estimate the expression of duplicated contigs. For organisms without reference transcriptome, it remains challenging to detect the inaccurate estimation on family-collapse contigs. On the contrary, we observed that the situation of under-estimation on duplicated contigs can be warned through analyzing the read proportion of estimated abundance (RPEA) of contigs in the connected component inferenced by the quantifiers. In addition, we suggest that the estimated quantification results on the connected component level have better accuracy over sequence level quantification. The analytic results conducted in this study provides valuable insights for future development of transcriptome assembly and quantification.

De novo transcriptome assembly of two contrasting pumpkin cultivars.

Project description:Cucurbita pepo (squash, pumpkin, gourd), a worldwide-cultivated vegetable of American origin, is extremely variable in fruit characteristics. However, the information associated with genes and genetic markers for pumpkin is very limited. In order to identify new genes and to develop genetic markers, we performed a transcriptome analysis (RNA-Seq) of two contrasting pumpkin cultivars. Leaves and female flowers of cultivars, 'Big Moose' with large round fruits and 'Munchkin' with small round fruits, were harvested for total RNA extraction. We obtained a total of 6 GB (Big Moose; http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Traces/sra/?run=SRR3056882) and 5 GB (Munchkin; http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Traces/sra/?run=SRR3056883) sequence data (NCBI SRA database SRX1502732 and SRX1502735, respectively), which correspond to 18,055,786 and 14,824,292 150-base reads. After quality assessment, the clean sequences where 17,995,932 and 14,774,486 respectively. The numbers of total transcripts for 'Big Moose' and 'Munchkin' were 84,727 and 68,051, respectively. TransDecoder identified possible coding regions in assembled transcripts. This study provides transcriptome data for two contrasting pumpkin cultivars, which might be useful for genetic marker development and comparative transcriptome analyses.
