Project description:Coevolutionary change requires reciprocal selection between interacting species, i.e., that the partner genotypes that are favored in one species depend on the genetic composition of the interacting species. Coevolutionary genetic variation is manifested as genotype ´ genotype (G ´ G) interactions for fitness from interspecific interactions. Although quantitative genetic approaches have revealed abundant evidence for G ´ G interactions in symbioses, the molecular basis of this variation remains unclear. Here we study the molecular basis of G ´ G interactions in a model legume-rhizobium mutualism using gene expression microarrays. We find that, like quantitative traits such as fitness, variation in the symbiotic transcriptome may be partitioned into additive and interactive genetic components. Our results suggest that plant genetic variation is the largest influence on nodule gene expression, and that plant genotype and the plant genotype ´ rhizobium genotype interaction determine global shifts in rhizobium gene expression that in turn feedback to influence plant fitness benefits. Moreover, the transcriptomic variation we uncover implicates regulatory changes in both species as drivers of symbiotic gene expression variation. Our study is the first to partition genetic variation in a symbiotic transcriptome, and illuminates potential molecular routes of coevolutionary change. We assayed gene expression using three biological replicates for each plant genotype × rhizobium genotype combination (4 combinations) for a total of 12 chips.

We assayed gene expression using three biological replicates for each plant genotype × rhizobium genotype combination (4 combinations) for a total of 12 chips. We compared gene expression in each of four combinations of Medicago truncatula families and Sinorhizobium meliloti strains using Affymetrix Medicago GeneChips to study how the entire transcriptome and individual genes responded to differences between plant families, between rhizobium strains, and due to the plant family × rhizobium strain (G × G) interaction.

Project description:The NifA-RpoN complex is a master regulator of the nitrogen fixation genes in alpha-proteobacteria. Based on the complete Rhizobium etli genome sequence, we constructed the R. etli CFN42 oligonucleotide (70 mer) microarray, and utilized this tool to survey changes in gene expression in R. etli CFN42 wild type compared with NifA CFNX247 mutant strain in symbiosis with Phaseolus vulgaris. As expected, the genes associated with a NifA and RpoN binding sites were downregulated in the NifA mutant strain.

Project description:A wide range of environmental stresses lead to an elevated production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in plant cells thus resulting in oxidative stress. The biological nitrogen fixation in the legume - Rhizobium symbiosis is at high risk of damage from oxidative stress. Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) active nodules exposed to the herbicide Paraquat (1,1 '-Dimethyl-4, 4'-bipyridinium dichloride hydrate) that generates ROS accumulation, showed a reduced nitrogenase activity and ureide content. We analyzed the global gene response of stressed nodules using the Bean CombiMatrix Custom Array 90K, that includes probes from some 30,000 expressed sequence tags (EST). A total of 4,280 ESTs were differentially expressed in oxidative stressed bean nodules; of these 2,218 were repressed. These genes were grouped in 44 different biological processes as defined by Gene Onthology. Analysis with the PathExpress bioinformatic tool, adapted for bean, identified five significantly repressed metabolic path

Project description:Rhizobium etli is a bacteria that fix nitrogen in symbiotic activity with Phaseolus vulgaris, the common bean plant. In order to accomplish this nitrogen reduction a especial environment is induced in nodules such that gene expression of bacteroid suffer a significant change with respect to its wild type life style. With the purpose to identify genetic alterations between these physiological states, replicates of microarray data were accomplished in similar conditions between bacteria cultivated in free-life (succinate-ammonia) and those carrying on nitrogen fixation inside nodule.

Project description:Rhizobium tropici CIAT899 is a nodule-forming α-proteobacterium displaying intrinsic resistance to several abiotic stress conditions such as low soil pH and high temperatures, which are common in tropical environments. It is a good competitor for Phaseolus vulgaris (common bean) nodule occupancy at low pH values, however little is known about the genetic or physiological basis of acid tolerance about gene expression under acidic conditions. To identify genes responding to pH stress we studied the transcriptomes of cells grown under different pH conditions. RNA was extracted from cells grown for several generations in minimal medium at 6.8 or 4.5 (adapted cells). In addition, we acid-shocked cells pre-grown at pH 6.8 for 45 minutes at pH 4.5. Transcriptomes were determined by RNA-Seq. From a total of 6289 protein-coding genes, 383 were found to be differentially expressed under acidic conditions versus control, among which 351 were induced and 32 repressed; only 11 genes were induced upon acid shock. The acid stress response of R. tropici CIAT899 is versatile: we found genes encoding response regulators and membrane transporters, but also enzymes involved in amino acid and carbohydrate metabolism and proton extrusion. Our findings enhance our understanding of the core genes that are important during the acid stress response in R. tropici.
