Project description:Dorso-ventral (DV) patterning at the Shoot Apical meristem (SAM) is essential for organogenesis in Arabidopsis. Dorsal and ventral gene expressed domains are separated by boundaries from where the new organ initiation starts. Here by using cell-types specific transcriptomics approach, we have identified doral, ventral and boundary specific genes in SAM.

Project description:DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that specifies the basic state of pluripotent stem cells and regulates the developmental transition from stem cells to various cell types. In flowering plants, the shoot apical meristem (SAM) contains a pluripotent stem cell population which generates the aerial part of plants including the germ cells. Under appropriate conditions, the SAM undergoes a developmental transition from a leaf-forming vegetative SAM to an inflorescence- and flower-forming reproductive SAM. While SAM characteristics are largely altered in this transition, the complete picture of DNA methylation remains elusive. Here, by analyzing whole-genome DNA methylation of isolated rice SAMs in the vegetative and reproductive stages, we found that methylation at CHH sites is kept high, particularly at transposable elements (TEs), in the vegetative SAM relative to the differentiated leaf, and increases in the reproductive SAM via the RNA-dependent DNA methylation pathway. We also found that half of the TEs that were highly methylated in gametes had already undergone CHH hypermethylation in the SAM. Our results indicate that changes in DNA methylation begin in the SAM long before germ cell differentiation to protect the genome from harmful TEs.

Project description:Knowledge about an organism’s cell and tissue-specific transcriptional repertoire is essential for understanding the gene regulatory circuits that control key developmental events. The shoot apical meristem (SAM) is responsible for development of all the above ground parts of plants. Our understanding of SAM at the molecular level is far from complete. The present work investigates the global gene expression repertoire of SAMs in the garden pea (Pisum sativum). To this end, 10,346 EST sequences representing 7611 unique genes were generated from pea SAM cDNA libraries. These sequences, together with previously reported ESTs, were used to construct a 12K oligonucleotide array used to identify genes exhibiting differential SAM expression, as compared to the axillary meristem, root apical meristem, and non-meristematic tissues. We identified a number of genes that are predominantly expressed in specific cell layers or domains of the SAM, and thus are likely components of the gene networks involved in stem cell maintenance and initiation of lateral organ primordial cells. In situ hybridization confirmed the spatial localisation of some of these key genes within the SAM. Our data also indicate the diversification of some gene expression patterns and functions in legume crop plants.

RNA samples were hybridized to two-colour Combimatrix arrays manufactured with a custom library of 11958 probes. The limma software package for R (Smyth, 2005) was used in subsequent statistical analysis of the data generated. On examination of the data during quality control assessment, it became evident that the Cy3 channel showed little dynamic range and background correction and normalisation could not correct for this. Therefore only the Cy5 channel was used in the subsequent analysis. This resulted in somewhat unbalanced sample sizes with six replicates of SAM and one each of RAM, AM and NM. Nevertheless, linear modelling and empirical Bayes moderated t-statistics (Smyth, 2004) used in the statistical analysis allows variance information to be borrowed across both samples and genes, resulting in reliable statistical inference even for the groups with only one sample.

Project description:The shoot apical meristem (SAM) contains undifferentiated stem cells that are responsible for the initiation of above-ground organs, and eventually the general architecture of the plant. To gain insight into the nature of genetic programs and the regulatory networks underlying SAM function in soybean, we have used Affymetrix soybean GeneChip® to investigate the transcript profiles associated with micro-dissected SAMs or axillary meristems (AMs). While the microarray data disclosed the conservation of transcriptional signature between the two types of meristems, subsequent comparison of SAM transcript profile with that of non-meristem (NM) tissue revealed a total of 1090 and 1523 transcripts that are significantly up- or down-regulated in the SAM. Further in situ hybridization analysis on selected transcripts has implicated their roles in SAM maintenance and the establishment of organ polarity. We also identified a gene that could potentially serve as a novel marker that distinguishes the differentiating cells in the meristem from the pluripotent stem cells. Along with many unknowns, transcripts with putative annotation have also been identified that has allowed us to infer SAM regulatory roles for various families of transcription factors as well as products associated with auxin-mediated responses, cell division and proliferation, epigenetic regulation, miRNA regulation and protein turnover. Computational analysis on the promoter regions of Arabidopsis orthologs of genes with high expression in the soybean SAM revealed a conserved over-representation of three cis-acting regulatory motifs. Our microarray data thus represents a rich source of target genes for further study into the meristem function and maintenance. Keywords: meristem transcript profile

Project description:Background: It has been observed in some plant-virus interaction under certain circumstances that the plants show a sign of healing from virus-infection, a phenomenon called symptom recovery. The nature of molecular processes behind symptom recovery has been an enigma in plant virology for a long time. Discovery of RNA silencing provided a possible mechanism to explain some aspects of recovery but not all. Results: We provide evidence that silencing is not the reason for recovery in CymRSV-infected Nicotiana benthamiana plants. Transcriptome analysis followed by in situ hybridization experiments shed light on the expressional changes in the shoot apical meristem (SAM) region upon virus infection. We observed a severe loss of meristem function in the SAM which was accompanied by the downregulation of meristem-specific genes. Among the upregulated genes we found an enrichment of salicylate-metabolism and signalling, and autophagy-related functions (among many others) suggesting that these genes might play a role in shoot necrosis and symptom recovery. Conclusion: Our data suggest that the loss of meristem function is a result of salicylate-induced programmed cell death.

Project description:All above ground organs of higher plants are ultimately derived from shoot apical meristems (SAMs). The SAM exhibits distinctive structural organization, and monocot SAMs such as maize are comprised of two cell layers, a single cell layered tunica (L1) and a corpus (L2). Although recent research has revealed roles of these cell layers in the SAM, intra- and inter-cell-layer signaling networks involved in organ development remain largely unknown except for a few differentially expressed genes. Here, we used Illumnia technology to conduct RNA-seq of L1 and L2 cell layers in maize B73 maize shoot apical meristem.
