Project description:The transition from vegetative to reproductive development is one of the most important phase changes in the plant life cycle. This step is controlled by various environmental signals that are integrated at the molecular level by so-called floral integrators. One such floral integrator in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) is the MADS domain transcription factor SUPPRESSOR OF OVEREXPRESSION OF CONSTANS1 (SOC1). Despite extensive genetic studies, little is known about the transcriptional control of SOC1, and we are just starting to explore the network of genes under the direct control of SOC1 transcription factor complexes. Here, we show that several MADS domain proteins, including SOC1 heterodimers, are able to bind SOC1 regulatory sequences. Genome-wide target gene analysis by ChIP-seq confirmed the binding of SOC1 to its own locus and shows that it also binds to a plethora of flowering-time regulatory and floral homeotic genes. In turn, the encoded floral homeotic MADS domain proteins appear to bind SOC1 regulatory sequences. Subsequent in planta analyses revealed SOC1 repression by several floral homeotic MADS domain proteins, and we show that, mechanistically, this depends on the presence of the SOC1 protein. Together, our data show that SOC1 constitutes a major hub in the regulatory networks underlying floral timing and flower development and that these networks are composed of many positive and negative autoregulatory and feedback loops. The latter seems to be crucial for the generation of a robust flower-inducing signal, followed shortly after by repression of the SOC1 floral integrator.

Project description:Floral organ identities in plants are specified by the combinatorial action of homeotic master regulatory transcription factors (TFs). How these factors achieve their regulatory specificities is however still largely unclear. Genome-wide in vivo DNA binding data show that homeotic MADS-domain proteins recognize partly distinct genomic regions, suggesting that DNA binding specificity contributes to functional differences of homeotic protein complexes. We used in vitro systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment followed by high throughput DNA sequencing (SELEX-seq) on several floral MADS-domain protein homo- and heterodimers to measure their DNA-binding specificities. We show that specification of reproductive organs is associated with distinct binding preferences of a complex formed by SEPALLATA3 (SEP3) and AGAMOUS (AG). Binding specificity is further modulated by different binding site (BS) spacing preferences. Combination of SELEX-seq and genome-wide DNA binding data allows to differentiate between targets in specification of reproductive versus perianth organs in the flower. We validate the importance of DNA-binding specificity for organ-specific gene regulation by modulating promoter activity through targeted mutagenesis. Our study shows that intrafamily protein interactions affect DNA-binding specificity of floral MADS-domain proteins. DNA-binding specificity of individual dimers, as well as DNA-binding preferences of higher-order complexes differ between floral homeotic protein complexes. Differential DNA-binding of MADS-domain protein complexes plays a role in the specificity of target gene regulation.

Project description:OsMADS1 in rice is an important transcription factor in controlling flower development, not only in flower organs development, but also in floral meristem determinacy. Early flower panicle we used is a high expression stage for OsMADS1. We used microarrays to detail the global gene expression underlying functions of OsMADS1 in rice flower development. Rice panicles in length of 2 mm and 5-7 mm were collectecd for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.Rice panicles in length of 2 mm is the stage for the initiation of inner floral organ development and in length of 5-7 mm is the late stages for floral organ development.Though comparing the microarray data of osmads1 and wild-type (control) at these two stages, we can find the functions of OsMADS1 in the early and late flower development stages. Three biological repeats were used. And totally 12 samples were analyzed.

Project description:The MADS genes encode transcription factors (TF) that act as master regulators of plant reproduction and flower development. The SEPALLATA (SEP) MADS subfamily is not only absolutely required for the development of floral organs, but also plays roles in inflorescence architecture and determinacy of the floral meristem. The SEPs act as organizers of MADS complexes and are able to form both heterodimers and heterotetramers in vitro. To date, the MADS TF complexes characterized in angiosperm floral organ development contain at least one SEP TF. Whether DNA-binding by SEP-containing dimeric MADS complexes are sufficient for launching floral organ identity programs, however, is not clear as only defects in floral meristem determinacy were observed in tetramerization impaired SEP mutants. Here we used a combination of genome-wide binding studies, high resolution structural studies of the SEP3-AGAMOUS tetramerisation domain, structure-based mutagenesis and complementation experiments in sep1 sep2 sep3 and sep1 sep2 sep3 ag-4 plants transformed with versions of SEP3 encoding tetramerization mutants. We demonstrate that while SEP3 heterodimers are able to bind DNA both in vitro and in vivo and recognize the majority of SEP3 wild type binding sites genome-wide, tetramerisation is not only required for floral meristem determinacy, but also absolutely required for floral organ identity in the second, third and fourth whorls.

Project description:The MADS-domain transcription factor APETALA1 (AP1) is a key regulator of Arabidopsis flower development. To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying AP1 function, we identified its target genes during floral initiation using a combination of gene expression profiling and genome-wide binding studies. Many of its targets encode transcriptional regulators, including known floral repressors. The latter genes are down-regulated by AP1, suggesting that it initiates floral development by abrogating the inhibitory effects of these genes. While AP1 acts predominantly as a transcriptional repressor during the earliest stages of flower development, regulatory genes known to be required for floral organ formation were found to be activated by AP1 at more advanced stages, indicating a dynamic mode of action. Our results further imply that AP1 orchestrates floral initiation by integrating growth, patterning and hormonal pathways.

Project description:Flower development is a dynamics process in which floral organs are produced from pools of stem cells residing in meristems (Smyth et al., 1990). In order to obtain a high resolution map of the changes of gene expression during this process thus to provide insights into specific expression patterns and their underlying gene regulatory networks, an inducible system which allows us to obtain synchronized flowers (Wellmer et al., 2006) was used to collect stage-specific floral tissues at four stages (stages 0, 2, 4 and 8) for transcriptome profiling by RNA-seq . These stages represent the status of inflorescence meristem, floral meristem specification, floral organ specification and floral organ differentiation, respectively during Arabidopsis flower development.

Project description:The molecular mechanisms by which floral homeotic genes act as major developmental switches to specify the identity of floral organs, are still largely unknown. Floral homeotic genes encode transcription factors of the MADS-box family, which are supposed to assemble in a combinatorial fashion into organ-specific multimeric protein complexes. Major mediators of protein interactions are MADS-domain proteins of the SEPALLATA subfamily, which play a crucial role in the development of all types of floral organs. In order to characterize the roles of the SEPALLATA3 transcription factor complexes at the molecular level, we analyzed genome-wide the direct targets of SEPALLATA3. We used chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by ultrahigh-throughput sequencing or hybridization to whole-genome tiling arrays to obtain genome-wide DNA-binding patterns of SEPALLATA3. The results demonstrate that SEPALLATA3 binds to thousands of sites in the genome. Most potential target sites that were strongly bound in wild-type inflorescences, are also bound in the floral homeotic agamous mutant, which displays only the perianth organs, sepals and petals. Characterization of the target genes shows that SEPALLATA3 integrates and modulates different growth-related and hormonal pathways in a combinatorial fashion with other MADS-box proteins and possibly with non-MADS transcription factors. In particular, the results suggest multiple links between SEPALLATA3 and auxin signaling pathways. Our gene expression analyses link the genomic binding site data with the phenotype of plants expressing a dominant repressor version of SEPALLATA3, suggesting that it modulates auxin response to facilitate floral organ outgrowth and morphogenesis. Furthermore, the binding of the SEPALLATA3 protein to cis-regulatory elements of other MADS-box genes and expression analyses reveal that this protein is a key component in the regulatory transcriptional network underlying the formation of floral organs.

Project description:Litchi possesses unique flower morphology and adaptive reproduction strategies. Although previous attention has been intensively devoted to the mechanisms underlying its floral induction, the molecular basis of flower organ development remains largely unknown. MADS-box genes are promise candidates for this due to their significant roles in various aspects of inflorescence and flower organogenesis. Here, we present a detailed overview of phylogeny and expression profiles of 101 MADS-box genes that were identified in litchi. These LcMADSs are unevenly located across the 15 chromosomes, and can be divided into type I and type II genes. Fifty type I MADS-box genes are sub-divided into Mα, Mβ and Mγ subgroups, while fifty-one type II LcMADSs consist of 37 MIKCC -type and 14 MIKC*-type genes. Both two types of LcMADS genes mainly contain ABA and MeJA response elements. Tissue-specific and development-related expression analysis reveals that LcMADS51 could be positively involved in litchi carpel formation, while six MADS-box genes including LcMADS42/46/47/75/93/100 play a possible role in stamen development. GA is positively involved in the sex determination of litchi flowers by regulating the expression of LcMADS75 (LcAP1) and LcMADS51 (LcSTK). However, JA probably plays a negative role in litchi flower development.
