Global increase in DNA Methylation during ripening of sweet orange [ncRNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Using sRNA-Seq to provide small RNA status in fruit ripening stages in sweet orange DNA methylation is an important epigenetic mark involved in many biological processes. The genome of the climacteric tomato fruit undergoes a global loss of DNA methylation due to active DNA demethylation during the ripening process. It is unclear whether the ripening of other fruits is also associated with global DNA demethylation. We characterized the single-base resolution DNA methylomes of sweet orange fruits. Compared to immature orange fruits, ripe orange fruits gained DNA methylation at over 30,000 genomic regions and lost DNA methylation at about 1,000 genomic regions, suggesting a global increase in DNA methylation during orange fruit ripening. This increase in DNA methylation was correlated with decreased expression of DNA demethylase genes. The application of a DNA methylation inhibitor interfered with ripening, indicating that the DNA hypermethylation is critical for the proper ripening of orange fruits. We found that ripening-associated DNA hypermethylation was associated with the repression of several hundred genes, such as photosynthesis genes, and with the activation of hundreds of genes including genes involved in ABA responses. Our results suggest important roles of DNA methylation in orange fruit ripening.

Transcriptome dynamics during fruit development of sweet orange (Citrus sinensis)

Project description:• To dissect how the genes are dynamically and differentially expressed during fruit development in sweet orange, a comprehensive transcriptomic study was performed in a pleiotropic mutant (MT) and its wild type (WT). • The detection of the fruit transcriptomic changes was conducted at five stages of fruit development by deep sequencing; the obtained millions of reliable tags were mapped on orange unigenes and subjected to cluster analysis and functional categorization. Sugar and organic acid contents were determined based on the prediction of differential biological processes. • The global clustering analysis revealed a total of 14 expression patterns for the genes involved in fruit development of sweet orange. More than 94% of the genes showed differential expression during fruit development. Comparative transcripts profiling between WT and MT revealed that between 410 and 634 genes were significantly differentially expressed at the five stages. Functional categorization indicated that TCA cycle, carotenoid biosynthesis, and pentose phosphate pathway (OPP) were among the most regulated pathways. • This study provided a dynamic-view of the transcriptome changes during fruit ripening in sweet orange; the results highlighted a set of molecular processes involved in the formation of the mutation trait in the orange fruits.

RdDM is involved in epigenetic regulation of strawberry fruit ripening

Project description:DNA methylation is a conserved epigenetic mark that influences diverse biological processes in many eukaryotes. Recently, DNA methylation was proposed to regulate fleshy fruit ripening. Fleshy fruits can be distinguished by their ripening process as climacteric fruits, such as tomatoes, or non-climacteric fruits, such as strawberries. Tomatoes undergo a global decrease in DNA methylation during ripening, due to increased expression of a DNA demethylase gene. The dynamics and biological relevance of DNA methylation during ripening of non-climacteric fruits, or other climacteric fruits, are unknown. Here, we generated and characterized single-base resolution maps of the DNA methylome in strawberry fruit, from immature to ripe stages. We observed an overall loss of DNA methylation during strawberry fruit ripening. Thus, ripening-induced DNA hypomethylation occurs not only in climacteric fruit, but also in non-climacteric fruit. However, we discovered that the mechanisms underlying DNA hypomethylation during ripening of tomato and strawberry are distinct. Unlike in tomatoes, DNA demethylase genes were not up-regulated during ripening of strawberries. Instead, genes involved in RNA-directed DNA methylation were down-regulated during strawberry ripening. Further, ripening-induced DNA hypomethylation was associated with decreased siRNA levels, consistent with reduced RdDM activity. Therefore, we propose that DNA hypomethylation during strawberry ripening is caused by diminished RdDM activity. Finally, hundreds of ripening-related genes displayed altered expression that was associated with, and thus potentially regulated by, DNA hypomethylation during ripening. Our findings provide new insight into the DNA methylation dynamics during the ripening of non-climateric fruit and reveal a novel function of RdDM in regulating an important process in plant development.

Critical roles of DNA demethylation in the activation of ripening-induced genes and inhibition of ripening-repressed genes in tomato fruit

Project description:DNA methylation is a conserved epigenetic mark important for genome integrity, development and environmental responses in plants and mammals. Active DNA demethylation in plants is initiated by a family of 5mC DNA glycosylases/lyases (i.e. DNA demethylases). The role of DNA demethylases in transposon regulation, pathogen responses, and gene imprinting and other developmental processes have been studied extensively in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Recent studies suggested a role of active DNA demethylation in fruit ripening in tomato. In this study, we generated loss-of-function mutant alleles of a tomato gene, SlROS1/SlDML1/2, which is a close homolog of the Arabidopsis DNA demethylase gene ROS1. In the fruits of the tomato mutants, increased DNA methylation was found in thousands of genes. These genes include not only hundreds of ripening induced genes but also many ripening repressed genes. Our results show that SlROS1 is critical for tomato fruit ripening, and suggest that active DNA demethylation is required for both the activation of ripening induced genes and inhibition of ripening repressed genes.

Genomic and transcriptomic analyses of valencia orange provide insights into its domestication and traits formation

Project description:Valencia orange (Citrus sinensis Osbeck), namely summer orange (SO), is a type of late-ripening sweet oranges, the ripening time of which is 4 to 5 months later than that of the middle-ripening common sweet orange (CO). The mastication of SO fruit pulp is worse than that of CO. To date, how the late-ripening and poor pulp mastication traits were domesticated in SO is unknown. In this study, 13 SO cultivars and 12 CO cultivars were used for whole-genome resequencing. Population genetic diversity analysis divided these 25 samples into SO and CO subgroups, respectively. There were 144 and 141 genes identified by selective sweep analysis to be strongly selected during SO and CO evolutionary processes, respectively. Based on gene functional annotation and pathway enrichment analysis, most of these selected genes in SO were related to resistance and lignin biosynthesis. Simultaneously, we comparatively analyzed the transcriptome profiles of the peel and pulp tissues among three SO cultivars and three CO cultivars, which also revealed the difference of lignin synthesis between SO and CO fruits. Moreover, according to the comparative analysis of the lignin content and the expressions of the genes related to lignin biosynthesis in SO and CO fruits, we suggested that lignin may play an important role in the pulp mastication trait of SO. In addition, a SNP molecular marker was developed to distinguish SO and CO. This study reveals that the mastication trait may be formed in the process of SO domestication, while the late-ripening trait may be formed in a genetic mutation event.

Critical function of DNA methyltransferase 1 in tomato development and regulation of the DNA methylome and transcriptome

Project description:DNA methylation confers epigenetic regulation on gene expression and thereby on various biological processes. Tomato has emerged as an excellent system to study the function of DNA methylation in plant development. In contrast to recent discoveries that DNA demethylation is critical for tomato fruit ripening, regulation and function of DNA methylation maintenance remains unclear in tomato plants. Here we report the critical function of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) Methyltransferase 1 (SlMET1) in plant development and DNA methylome and transcriptome regulation. Using CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing, we generated slmet1 mutants and discovered that SlMET1 is required for normal development of flowers and seeds in tomato. Mutations in SlMET1 caused CG hypomethylation and CHH hypermethylation on a whole-genome scale, leading to a disturbed transcriptome including defects in the expression of key genes involved in meristem formation, seed development and fruit ripening. Consistently, the slmet1 mutants showed impaired flower production, elevated lycopene levels in fruits, and pathenocarpic fruits. In the slmet1 mutants, hypomethylated CG and hypermethylated CHH cytosines are preferentially located in genes and transposable elements (TEs), respectively. Neither the CG hypomethylation nor CHH hypermethylation in the slmet1 mutants is related to tissue culture-induced non-CG hypomethylation, which prefers genes over TEs and is more stable in the former regions than the latter during subsequent inbreeding. Our results depict SlMET1- and tissue culture-dependent tomato DNA methylomes, and that SlMET1 is required for normal development of flowers and seeds, thereby highlighting a role of DNA methylation in determining the yield of normal tomato fruits.

Expression data of fruits in the wildtype and ORR tomato plants

Project description:An Ac/Ds transposon tagged mutant population was screened for changes in visible fruit phenotypes. One line showed orange, yellow sectors in the fruit and was named Orange ripening (Orr), its transposase free offspring showed Mendelian segregation yielding red, yellow and orange fruit bearing plants in a ratio of 1:2:1. Crossing the an orange fruit plant line to the wild-type yielded only plants bearing yellow fruit. A cross between the yellow fruit bearing progeny yielded 26 plants having red and 17 plants having yellow fruit, suggesting an over-dominant allele. Using inverse PCR analysis showed an insertion in the putative subunit M of the tomato Ndh complex. Subsequently, an Orr Ds transposon excision line was recovered which only showed red pigmented fruit. Here, we describe microarray profiling of tomato fruits from wild-type, heterozygous and homozygous Orr insertion plants and from fruits harvested from the Orr excision line. Keywords: mutant wild type Tomato fruits were harvested at breaker stage using wild-type, ORR homozygouse and heterozygous lines as well as Orr excision lines. To investigate the expression changes in the ORR mutants, wildtype and ORR mutant line fruits were harvested at the breaker stage and subjected to Affymetrix microarray profiling
