Late response to boron toxicity in barley leaves

ABSTRACT: Barley1 GeneChip was used to investigate transcriptome changes associated with boron (B) toxicity in a sensitive barley cultivar (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Hamidiye). Eight day old aseptically grown seedlings were subjected to 5 or 10 mM boric acid (B(OH)3) treatments for 5 days and expression profiles were determined with DNA microarrays using total RNA from leaf tissues. Surface sterilized seeds were aseptically germinated and grown on half strength Hoagland’s solution (Hoagland and Arnon, 1950) (pH 5.8) solidified with Phytagel® for 8 days at 23±2ºC with 16 h light (400 µmol m–2 s–1) and 8 h dark photo-cycle with 70% relative humidity. Seedlings were transferred to sterile hydroponic cultures for B treatment, which was applied immediately after transfer as half strength Hoagland’s solution containing either 5 mM B(OH)3 (5B) or 10 mM B(OH)3 (10B) for another 5 days under the same physical conditions. Control (C) groups were transferred to half strength Hoagland’s solution without extra B(OH)3. ****[PLEXdb(http://www.plexdb.org) has submitted this series at GEO on behalf of the original contributor, Mehmet Tufan OZ.

Project description:The aim of this study is to study gene expression in Brassica oleracea in shoot tissues of plants grown under contrasting P supplies (see Hammond JP et al., 2003, Plant Physiology, 132, 578-596 for background). Seeds of B. oleracea (var. alboglabra, A12dH) were first washed in 70% (v/v) ethanol/water, rinsed in distilled water and surface sterilised using 50% (v/v) domestic bleach/water. Seeds were rinsed and imbibed for 3 to 5 days in sterile distilled water at 4°C to break dormancy. Following imbibition, B. oleracea seeds were sown in un-vented, polycarbonate culture boxes (Sigma-Aldrich Company Ltd., Dorset UK). Seedlings were grown for 21 days on perforated polycarbonate discs (diameter 91 mm by 5 mm) placed on 75 ml of 0.8% (w/v) agar containing 1% (w/v) sucrose and a basal salt mix. Roots grew into the agar, but shoots remained on the opposite side of the disc. After 21 days, seedlings were transferred, still on polycarbonate discs, to a hydroponics system situated in a Saxcil growth cabinet (16 h daylength, set to 22°C and 80% humidity). Each polycarbonate disc was placed on a light-proof 500 ml beaker over 450 ml of nutrient solution. After 7 days, half the plants were transferred to nutrient solution containing no phosphate and the other half remained on full nutrient solution (control plants). Shoots were harvested 100 h after the withdrawal of P. !Samples were snap frozen in liquid nitrogen. RNA was extracted using the TRIzol extraction method and cleaned through a Qiagen RNeasy column.
