RNA-seq insights into primary root apical meristem exhaustion and determinate root growth in Pachycereus pringlei (Cactaceae)

ABSTRACT: Many Cactaceae species exhibit determinate growth of the primary root as a consequence of root apical meristem (RAM) exhaustion. The genetic regulation of this root growth pattern is unknown. We de novo assembled and annotated the root apex transcriptome of the Pachycereus pringlei primary root at three developmental stages with active or exhausted RAM. The assembled transcriptome was characterized and used to evaluate differential transcript expression, identify RT-qPCR reference genes, and infer a transcriptional regulatory network. We generated a robust and comprehensive transcriptome of the primary root apex of P. pringlei and identified putative orthologs of Arabidopsis regulators of RAM maintenance, as well as putative lineage-specific transcripts. Furthermore, the transcriptome contained putative orthologs of most proteins involved in housekeeping processes, hormone signaling, and metabolic pathways. Specific transcriptional programs operate in the root apex at specific developmental time points. The transcriptional state of the P. pringlei root apex as the RAM becomes exhausted is comparable to that of cells from the meristematic, elongation, and differentiation zones of Arabidopsis roots. We suggest that the genetic program underlying the drought stress response is induced during development of the Cactaceae root, and that lineage-specific transcripts could contribute to root apical meristem exhaustion in Cactaceae.

ORE15, a PLATZ transcription factor, determines root meristem size by modulating auxin and cytokinin signaling

Project description:An optimal size of postembryonic root apical meristem (RAM) is achieved by a balance between cell division and differentiation. Despite extensive research, molecular mechanisms underlying the spatiotemporal coordination of cell division and differentiation remain largely unknown. Here, we report that ORESARA 15 (ORE15), an Arabidopsis PLATZ transcription factor preferentially expressed in the RAM, determines RAM size. The primary root length, RAM size, cell division rate, and stem cell niche activity were reduced in an ore15 loss-of-function mutant but enhanced in an activation-tagged line overexpressing ORE15 compared with the wild type. We further demonstrate that ORE15 regulates auxin transport and distribution, at least partly, by modulating the expression and localization of the auxin importer AUXIN RESISTANT 1 (AUX1). ORE15 forms mutually positive and negative feedback loops with auxin and cytokinin signaling, respectively. Collectively, our findings imply that ORE15 controls the RAM size by mediating the antagonistic interaction between auxin and cytokinin.

DEAD-box RNA helicase 27-Mediated MicroRNA Biogenesis Is Essential for Zygote Division and Stem Cell Homeostasis in Arabidopsis

Project description:Zygote division and stem cell homeostasis are crucial events for plant development. Here, we found that mutations in DEAD-box RNA helicase 27 (RH27) affected zygote division and stem cell homeostasis in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). The strong mutant allele rh27-1 showed a zygote-lethal phenotype, while the weak mutant allele rh27-2 showed defective embryogenesis and compromised stem cell homeostasis in both the shoot apical meristem (SAM) and root apical meristem (RAM). RH27 was expressed in embryos from the zygote stage, and in the SAM and RAM. Cytological analyses revealed that stem cell homeostasis in the SAM and RAM was disrupted in rh27-2. Then, the expression levels of genes related to stem cell homeostasis were elevated in rh27-2, which coincides with down-regulations of their corresponding negative regulatory microRNAs. Furthermore, small RNA-sequencing indicated that the reduction of miRNAs was a global effect in both shoot apices and root tips of rh27-2. Additionally, the accumulation of pri-miRNAs was detected to be decreased. Biochemical studies showed that the nucleus-localized RH27 interacted directly with SERRATE, a component of the microprocessor complex, and DAWDLE, which facilitates the recruitment of substrates to the complex, suggesting that RH27 is a subunit of the microprocessor complex. Overall, this work provides evidences that RH27 regulates zygote division and stem cell homeostasis in Arabidopsis through miRNA biogenesis.

The Class VIII myosin ATM1 is integral for root apical meristem function

Project description:Myosins are evolutionarily conserved motor proteins that interact with actin filaments to regulate organelle transport, cytoplasmic streaming and cell growth. Plant specific Class XI myosin proteins direct cell division and root organogenesis. However, the roles of Class VIII myosin proteins in plant growth and development are less understood. Here, we investigated the function of an auxin-regulated Class VIII myosin, Arabidopsis thaliana Myosin 1 (ATM1), using genetics and live cell microscopy. ATM1 is a plasmodesmata-localized protein that is enriched in actively dividing cells in the root apical meristem (RAM). Loss of ATM1 function results in impaired primary root growth due to decreased RAM size and reduced cell proliferation in a sugar dependent manner. Examination of stem cell marker line expression in atm1-1 indicated impaired division of the lateral root cap and columella cells and a diminished auxin response. Transcriptome analysis of atm1-1 linked these growth defects to dysregulation of cell cycle and auxin pathway genes. Complementation of ATM1 loss-of- function mutant restored root growth and cell cycle progression in the root meristem. Collectively, these results provide novel evidence that ATM1 functions to influence cell proliferation and differentiation in primary roots in response to auxin and sugar cues.

A Redox-Dependent Pathway for Regulating Reversible HDACs Synchronizes Crown Root Development in Rice

Project description:As a signal molecular in aerobic organism, how reactive oxygen species (ROS) regulates normal life is a fundamental biological question. Locally accumulated ROS have been reported to balance cell division and differentiation in root apical meristem. However, the underlying molecular mechanism is unclear. Here, we reveal that developmentally produced H2O2 in plant root apical meristem (RAM) triggers reversible acetylation modification of proteins which involved in protein synthesis and cell proliferation. WOX11, an essential transcription factor for crown roots (CRs) formation, modulates ROS homeostasis by directly regulating class III peroxidases. HDACs (histone deacetylases) sense cellular redox status to enhance their enzyme activities, which drives protein acetylation level alterations in rice roots. Oxidation-dependent on WOX11 triggered protein acetylation modification leads to a robust root system in rice. Our study revealed a novel regulatory mechanism which cellular redox status via a WOX11-dependent manner regulates protein acetylation during rice crown root development. The molecular link between the redox status and HDACs activities through WOX11-dependent pathway may provide new insight into which plants exploit developmentally produced ROS to direct organogenesis. Additionally, HDACs reversible enzyme activity via redox-regulated endows with the flexibility of protein modification control in dealing with developmental and changing environmental cues.

High-resolution gene expression datasets of ontogenetic zones in the root apical meristem

Project description:In plants, apical meristems allow continuous growth along the body axis. Within the root apical meristem (RAM), a group of slowly dividing quiescent center (QC) cells is thought to limit stem cell activity to directly neighboring cells (Cowels, 1956; van den Berg et al., 1997), thus endowing them with unique properties, distinct from displaced daughters. This binary identity of the stem cells stands in apparent contradiction with the more gradual changes in cell division potential (Bennett and Scheres, 2010) and differentiation (Yamaguchi et al., 2008; 2010; Furuta et al, 2014; Geldner, 2013; Masucci et al., 1996; Dolan and Costa, 2001) that occur as cells move further away from the QC. To address this paradox and to infer molecular organization of the root meristem, we used a whole-genome approach to determine dominant transcriptional patterns along root ontogeny zones. We found that the prevalent patterns are expressed in two opposing gradients. One is characterized by genes associated with development, the other enriched in differentiation genes. We confirmed these transcript gradients, and demonstrate that these translate to gradients in protein accumulation and gradual changes in cellular properties. We also show that gradients are genetically controlled through multiple pathways. Based on these findings, we propose that cells in the Arabidopsis root meristem gradually transition from ‘stemness’ towards differentiation.
