Project description:MicroRNAs and siRNAs are important regulators of plant development and seed formation, yet their population and abundance in the oil crop Brassica napus are still less understood, especially at different developmental stages and among cultivars with varied seed oil contents. Here, we systematically analyzed the small RNA expression profiles of Brassica napus seeds at early embryonic developmental stages in a high oil content and a low oil content Brassica napus cultivars, both cultured in two environments. A total of 50 conserved miRNAs and 11 new miRNAs were identified, together with some new miRNA targets. Expression analysis revealed some miRNAs with varied expression levels in different seed oil content cultivars or at different embryonic developmental stages. A large amount of 23-nt small RNAs with specific nucleotide composition preference were also identified, which may present new classes of functional small RNAs. Examination of small RNA profiles in 2 different seed oil content rapeseed culvitars at 2 locations.

Project description:Compared to ordinary rapeseed, high-oleic acid rapeseed has higher levels of monounsaturated fatty acids and lower levels of saturated fatty acid and polyunsaturated fatty acids, and thus is of high nutritional and health value. In addition, high-oleic acid rapeseed oil imparts cardiovascular protective effects. Based on these properties, high-oleic acid oil crops have been extensively investigated and cultivated. In this study, we employed a microarray analysis with high oleic acid line and low oleic acid line from the developing seeds (27 days after flowering) of Brassica napus.

Project description:Heavy rainfall causes flooding of natural ecosystems as well as farmland, negatively affecting crop performance and yield. While the response of the wild model organism Arabidopsis thaliana to such stress conditions is well understood, we hardly know anything about the response of its relative, the important oil crop plant Brassica napus. Here, we analyzed the molecular response of leaves of rapeseed seedlings to full submergence under illumination. RNAseq experiments revealed a strong carbon starvation response under submergence, but no indication for a low-oxygen response. We used two cultivars in this study, one Asian flooding-tolerant cultivar and one European hybrid cultivar, but those genotypes did not show strong differences in their responses to submergence.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding small RNAs (sRNAs) that play crucial regulatory roles in various developmental processes. Silique length indirectly influences seed yield in rapeseed (Brassica napus); however, the molecular roles of miRNAs in silique length are largely unknown. Here, backcross progenies of rapeseed with long siliques (LS) and short siliques (SS) were used to elucidate this role. Four small RNA libraries from early developing siliques were sequenced, and a total of 814 non-redundant miRNA precursors were identified, representing 65 known miRNAs, and 394 novel miRNAs. Expression analyses revealed 12 known miRNAs and 5 novel miRNAs that were differentially expressed in LS and SS lines. Furthermore, though two degradome sequencing, we annotated 522 cleavage events. An analysis of correlated expression between differentially expressed miRNAs and their targets demonstrated that some transcription factors might repress cell proliferation or auxin signal transduction to control silique length, and that a Pi/Cu deficiency might also restrict silique development. More significantly, the overexpression of miR160 in rapeseed may repress auxin response factors and result in increased silique length, illustrating that silique length could be regulated via an auxin-response pathway. These results will serve as a foundation for future research in B. napus.

Project description:Waterlogging is one major stress for crops and causes multiple problems for plants, for example low gas diffusion, reducing conditions in the soil and accumulation of toxic metabolites. Brassica napus is an important oil crop with high waterlogging sensitivity, which may cause severe yield losses. Its reactions to the stress are not fully understood. In this work the transcriptional response of rapeseed to one aspect of waterlogging, hypoxia in the root zone, was analyzed, including two rapeseed cultivars from different origin, Avatar from Europe and Zhongshuang 9 from Asia. Both cultivars showed a high number of differentially expressed genes in roots after 4 and 24 h of hypoxia. The response included many well-known hypoxia-induced genes such as genes coding for glycolytic and fermentative enzymes. Leaves hardly responded to the root stress after a 24-h-stress treatment, and photosynthesis seemed to be not affected by the stress applied to roots. There was no clear difference in either gene expression or tolerance to waterlogging between the two genotypes used in this study.

Project description:Enhancing oil content is one of the major goals in Brassica napus breeding, however, genetic regulation of seed oil content in plants is complex and not fully elucidated. In the present study, we report proteins that were differentially accumulated in immature seeds of 35 days after anthesis between two recombinant inbred lines with contrasting seed oil content, HOCL (High oil content line) and LOCL (Low oil content line) using a multiplex isobaric tandem mass tags (TMT)-based quantitative proteomics approach. Over 4600 proteins were quantified in seeds of the two lines, and 342 proteins showed differential accumulation between seeds of HOCL and LOCL. Gene Ontology enrichment analysis revealed that the differentially-accumulated proteins were enriched in proteins involved in lipid biosynthesis and metabolism, photosynthesis, and nutrient reservoir activity. Western blot confirmed the increased abundance of a Late Embryogenesis Abundant protein (BnLEA57) in HOCL seeds compared with LOCL seeds, and over-expression of either BnLEA57 gene or its homology BnLEA55in transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana enhancedoil content in Arabidopsis seeds. Our work provides new insights into the molecular regulatory mechanism of seed oil content in B. napus.

Project description:C3-C4 intermediate Moricandia suffruticosa showed tolerance to drought and heat stresses, and high photosynthetic capacity under these abiotic stresses as comparing with C3 relative crop rapeseed (Brassica napus). In our study, systematic analysis was conducted to reveal photosynthetic difference between C3-C4 Moricandia suffruticosa and its relative C3 rapeseed from the same Brassiceae tribe. It was found that Moricandia leaf photosynthesis and anatomy were significantly changed compared to rapeseed under drought and heat stress conditions. De novo transcriptome of Moricandia was assembled by next generation sequencing, and unigenes were mapped to respective rapeseed gene locus. Then comparative transcriptome analysis was conducted in leaf tissues of Moricandia and rapeseed under both drought and heat stresses. Main pathways and candidate genes were revealed from this analysis, which may be associated with the stress induced change in Moricandia.

Project description:The rapeseed crop (Brassica napus) is valued mainly for animal feed, food oil and biofuel production. This plant is particularly susceptible to many pathogens like parasitic plants, fungi or animals attacking aerial or root parts. Conventional plant protection products, used intensively in agriculture, have a negative impact on the environment (air and water quality, biodiversity, etc.) as well as on human health. There is therefore a growing demand for the development of new, more planet-friendly alternative protection methods such as biocontrol compounds. Natural rhamnolipids (RLs) can be used as elicitors of plant defense mechanisms. Indeed, these glycolipids, from bacteria secretome, are biodegradable, non-toxic and they are known for their stimulating and protective effects, in particular on rapeseed against filamentous fungi. Characterizing the organ responsiveness to defense stimulating compounds like RLs is missing. This analysis is crucial in the frame of optimizing the effectiveness of RLs against various diseases. A TMT labeling of the proteins extracted from the shoots and roots of B. napus has been performed and showed a differential pattern of protein abundance between them. These results have allowed identifying several protein families possibly involved in the differential responses observed in shoots and roots of rapeseed upon RLs treatment. In particular, quantitative proteomic analysis highlighted differential accumulation of parietal and cytoplasmic defense or stress proteins in response to treatments with RLs with a clear effect of the type of application (foliar spraying or root absorption). These results must be considered for further use of RLs to fight specific rapeseed pathogens.
