Drug Delivery in Plants Using Silk Microneedles

ABSTRACT: New systems for agrochemical delivery in plants will foster precise agricultural practices and provide new tools to study plants and design crop traits, as standard spray methods suffer from elevated loss and limited access to remote plant tissues. Silk-based microneedles can circumvent these limitations by deploying a known amount of payloads directly in plants’ deep tissues. However, plant response to microneedles’ application and microneedles’ efficacy in deploying physiologically relevant biomolecules are unknown. Here, we show that gene expression associated with Arabidopsis thaliana wounding response decreases within 24 hours post microneedles’ application. Additionally, microinjection of gibberellic acid (GA3) in A. thaliana mutant ft-10 provides a more effective and efficient mean than spray to activate GA3 pathways, accelerating bolting, and inhibiting flower formation. Microneedles’ efficacy in delivering GA3 is also observed in several monocot and dicot crop species, i.e., tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), lettuce (Lactuca sativa), spinach (Spinacia oleracea), rice (Oryza Sativa), maize (Zea mays), barley (Hordeum vulgare), and soybean (Glycine max). The wide range of plants that can be successfully targeted with microinjectors opens the doors to their use in plant science and agriculture.

Expression data from Oryza sativa and Arabidopsis thaliana

Project description:In this study, we used a cross-species network approach to uncover nitrogen (N)-regulated network modules conserved across a model and a crop species. By translating gene network knowledge from the data-rich model Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana, ecotype Columbia-0) to a crop, rice (Oryza sativa spp. japonica (Nipponbare)), we identified evolutionarily conserved N-regulatory modules as targets for translational studies to improve N use efficiency in transgenic plants.

Global RNA sequencing reveals the effect of foliar boron application in protection of Brassica napus against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum infection

Project description:Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, the causal agent of white mould, is a necrotrophic fungal pathogen responsible for extensive crop loss. Current control options rely heavily on the application of chemical fungicides that are becoming less effective and may lead to the development of fungal resistance. In the current study, we used a foliar spray application of boron to protect Brassica napus (canola) from S. sclerotiorum infection using whole plant infection assays. Application of boron to aerial surfaces of the canola plant reduced the number of S. sclerotiorum forming lesions by 87% compared to an untreated control. We used dual RNA sequencing to profile the effect of boron on both the host plant and fungal pathogen during the infection process. Differential gene expression analysis and gene ontology term enrichment further revealed the mode of action of a foliar boron spray at the mRNA level. A single foliar application of boron primed the plant defense response through the induction of genes associated with systemic acquired resistance while an application of boron followed by S. sclerotiorum infection induced genes associated with defense-response-related cellular signalling cascades. Additionally, in S. sclerotiorum inoculated on boron-treated B. napus, we uncovered gene activity in response to salicylic acid breakdown, consistent with salicylic-acid-dependent systemic acquired resistance induction within the host plant. Taken together, this study demonstrates that a foliar application of boron results in priming of the B. napus plant defense response, likely through systemic acquired resistance, thereby contributing to increased tolerance to S. sclerotiorum infection.

oligosaccharide treatment - 24 hpt-Effect of oligosaccharide treatments on gene expression.

Project description:ra10-03_eliciteur - oligosaccharide treatment - 24 hpt - Do the treatments modify gene expression in a way that can give us a hint as to their use in crop protection? What is the effect of the adjuvant on gene expression? - 6,5-week-old arabidopsis plants grown in short-day photoperiod were spray-treated with water, an adjuvant or oligosaccharides in the adjuvant (10 plants per condition, 4 replicates per condition). 6 hrs, 24 hrs and 48 hrs after the treatment, samples were taken (2 7mm diameter leaf disks per plant, from medium-aged leaves), frozen in liquid nitrogen, and later on total RNA was extracted.

Analysis of global transcriptomic response of lettuce seedlings (Lactuca sativa L.) to microalgae extract used as biostimulant agents

Project description:The use of new natural eco-sustainable products is becoming an interesting option in order to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers and increase crop yields. Seaweed extracts are gained major attention as plant biostimulants due to their positive effect on plant-growth as well as on improving plants’ tolerance against abiotic stresses. Among the horticulture crops, lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) is a major fresh vegetable crop in the Mediterranean area, which often requires the use of natural biostimulants to improve both the quantity and quality of production. The aim of this work was to assess the effect of either Chlorella vulgaris or Scenedesmus quadricauda extracts on lettuce seedlings (Lactuca sativa L.) by motoring the induced transcriptomic modifications using a RNASeq approach. The results showed that both C. vulgaris and S. quadricauda extracts positively influence the growth of lettuce seedlings. However, a higher reprogramming of the gene expression occurred in the case of C. vulgaris treatment than in S. quadricauda extract. Considering the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway functional enrichments, the main KEGG terms are in the “Biosynthesis of secondary metabolites”, “Metabolic pathways”, “Carbon metabolism” and “Biosynthesis of amino acids” categories. This study lays the basis for understanding the mechanisms and processes triggered by the use of microalgal extracts, which can represent an easier-to-handle and cheaper method for an eco-sustainable cultivation of lettuce plants than the application of chemicals.

Expression data of Arabidopsis grown under low or sufficient nitrogen availability

Project description:Nitrogen availability in the soil is a major determinant of crop yield. While the application of fertilizer can substantially increase the yield on poor soils, it also causes nitrate pollution of water resources and high costs for farmers. Increasing the nitrogen use efficiency in crop plants is a necessary step to implement low input agricultural systems. We exploited the genetic diversity present in the world-wide Arabidopsis thaliana population to study adaptive growth patterns and changes in gene expression associated with chronic low nitrate stress, with the aim to identify biomarkers associated with good plant performance under low nitrate availability. Transcription and epigenetic factors were identified as important players in the adaptatiion to limited nitrogen in a global gene expression analysis using the Affymetrix ATH1 chip.

Non-pathogenic leaf-colonising bacteria elicit pathogen-like responses in a colonisation density-dependent manner

Project description:Leaves are colonised by a complex mix of microbes, termed the leaf microbiota. Even though the leaf microbiota is increasingly recognised as an integral part of plant life and health, our understanding of its interactions with the plant host is still limited. Here, mature, axenically grown Arabidopsis thaliana plants were spray-inoculated with diverse leaf-colonising bacteria. Whole transcriptome sequencing revealed that four days after inoculation, leaf transcriptional changes to colonisation by non-pathogenic and pathogenic bacteria differed in strength but not in the type of response. Inoculation of plants with different densities of the non-pathogenic bacterium Williamsia sp. Leaf354 showed that high bacterial titers caused disease phenotypes and led to severe transcriptional reprogramming with a strong focus on plant defence. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Expression data from low R:FR - SA crosstalk in Arabidopsis

Project description:Low R:FR signaling through phytochromes induces shade avoidance responses, including petiole elongation. Salicylic acid-mediated defense against pathogens is inhibited under these conditions. Using microarrays we studied the crosstalk between low R:FR and SA at the global gene expression level in Arabidopsis thaliana. Plants were exposed for 2 h. to the following treatments: high R/FR with mock spray, low R/FR with mock spray, high R/FR with SA spray, low R/FR with SA spray. Gene expression was determined in petioles.
