Project description:In the study, two soybean genotypes were selected to conduct high and low P, high and low Mg, and AM fungal inoculation treatments, combined with RNA-seq sequencing technique in order to investigate the physiological and molecular mechanisms of the symbiosis between soybean and AM fungi affected by P and Mg treatments. The results showed that both Mg application and AM fungal inoculation were beneficial to promote soybean growth under low P condition. And there was a synergistic effect between the Mg concentration and the P concentration in the root of HN112 under the inoculation condition. RNA-seq sequencing was carried out using the roots of P-efficient soybean HN89 under different Mg and inoculation treatments with low P condition, and the difference of gene expression profiles was analyzed between high and low Mg treatments, and different inoculation treatments. According to the analysis of GO function classification and KEGG enrichment, under high Mg condition, the metabolic pathway was mainly enriched in lipid metabolism and glucose metabolism pathway under the inoculation treatment compared with the non-inoculation treatment, which regulated carbon metabolism pathway. Under the low Mg condition, the metabolic pathway was mainly enriched in the photosynthesis- antenna protein pathway to regulate the photosynthesis pathway under the inoculation treatment compared with the non-inoculation treatment. At the same time, the inoculation treatment significantly increased soybean root starch concentration under low Mg condition, compared with the non-inoculation treatment, suggesting that the significant up-regulation of a large number of photosynthesis related genes might be related to the significant increase of starch concentration at this treatment.

Project description:Brassinosteroid (BR) is an essential hormone in plant growth and development. BR signaling pathway has been extensively studied, in which Brassinazole resistant 1 (BZR1) functions as a key regulator. Here, we carried out a functional study of the homolog of BZR1 in Medicago truncatula, whose expression was induced in nodules upon rhizobial inoculation. We identified a loss-of-function mutant mtbzr1-1 and generated 35S:MtBZR1 transgenic lines for further analysis at the genetic level. Both the mutant and the overexpressor lines of MtBZR1 showed no obvious phenotypic changes under normal growth condition. After rhizobial inoculation, however, the shoot and root dry mass was reduced in mtbzr1-1 compared with the wild-type, caused by partially impaired nodule development. The transcriptomic analysis identified 1,319 differentially expressed genes in mtbzr1-1 compared with wild-type, many of which are involved in nodule development and secondary metabolite biosynthesis. Our results demonstrate an essential role of MtBZR1 in nodule development in M. truncatula, shedding light on the potential role of BR in legume-rhizobium symbiosis.

Project description:Legumes perform symbiotic nitrogen fixation through rhizobial bacteroids housed in specialised root nodules. The biochemical process is energy‐intensive and consumes a huge carbon source to generate sufficient reducing power. To maintain the symbiosis, malate is supplied by legume nodules to bacteroids as their major carbon and energy source in return for ammonium ions and nitrogenous compounds. To sustain the carbon supply to bacteroids, nodule cells undergo drastic reorganisation of carbon metabolism. Here, a comprehensive quantitative comparison of the mitochondrial proteomes between root nodules and uninoculated roots was performed using data‐independent acquisition proteomics, revealing the modulations in nodule mitochondrial proteins and pathways in response to carbon reallocation. Corroborated our findings with that from the literature, we believe nodules preferably allocate cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvates towards malate synthesis in lieu of pyruvate synthesis, and nodule mitochondria prefer malate over pyruvate as the primary source of NADH for ATP production. Moreover, the differential regulation of respiratory chain‐associated proteins suggests that nodule mitochondria could enhance the efficiencies of complexes I and IV for ATP synthesis. This study highlighted a quantitative proteomic view of the mitochondrial adaptation in soybean nodules.

Project description:The results indicate that the NtLHT1 mutation enhances LN tolerance in tobacco. The contents of nitrate nitrogen and ammonium nitrogen, as well as the activities of nitrate reductase and glutamine synthetase, were greater in the mutants than in the wild type (WT). Moreover, the contents of some amino acids changed in the mutant. Transcriptome sequencing of roots under LN treatment revealed that the Ntlht1mutant presented 726 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). These DEGs were involved mainly in phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, starch and sucrose metabolism, and cysteine and methionine metabolism.

Project description:RNA Seq was extracted from cucumber leaves after 7 days of bacteria inoculated in shoot and salt stress treatment. There were four treatment in this study, : ‘CK’ stands for seedlings under 0 mM NaCl without BC56 inoculation; ‘BC56’ refers to seedlings under 0 mM NaCl with BC56 inoculation; ‘Salt’ means seedlings under 100 mM NaCl without BC56 inoculation; ‘BC56+Salt’ indicates seedlings under 100 mM NaCl with BC56 inoculation.GO was used to assign putative functions to all identified DEGs into three principal categories, namely cellular component, molecular function, and biological process. An analysis of the GO terms suggested that ‘nucleus’, ‘plasma membrane’, and ‘integral component of membrane’ were the most dominant terms in the cellular component. While ‘biological process’, ‘regulation of transcription, DNA -templated’ and ‘transcription, DNA-templated’ were the most abundant terms in the biological process. In addition ‘molecular function’, ‘protein binding’ and ‘DNA-binding transcription factor activity’ were the major terms in the molecular function category. KEGG pathway analysis of DEGs in different comparison group suggested that in the BC56 vs CK comparison group DEGs were mainly enriched in four pathways which are ‘photosynthesis - antenna proteins’, ‘phenylpropanoid biosynthesis’, ‘metabolic pathways’ and ‘MAPK signaling pathway – plant’. In the BC56 vs CK comparison group DEGs were mainly enriched in seven pathways which are ‘phenylpropanoid biosynthesis’, ‘plant hormone signal transduction’, ‘biosynthesis of secondary metabolites’, ‘flavonoid biosynthesis’, ‘metabolic pathways’, ‘carotenoid biosynthesis’ and ‘stilbenoid, diarylheptanoid and gingerol biosynthesis’. In addition, compared with BC56+Salt vs CK, ‘ABC transporters’, ‘nitrogen metabolism’ and ‘phenylalanine metabolism’ is only significantly enriched in Salt vs CK.

Project description:Legumes and rhizobia establish a nitrogen-fixing symbiosis that involves the formation of a lateral root organ, the nodule, and the infection process that allows intracellular accommodation of rhizobia within nodule cells. This process involves significant gene expression changes regulated at the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. We have previously shown that a transcript encoding the subunit 3 of the Superkiller Complex (SKI), which guides mRNAs to the exosome for 3´-to-5´ degradation, is required for nodule formation and bacterial persistence within the nodule, as well as the induction of early nodulation genes (e.g., MtENOD40) during the Medicago truncatula-Sinorhizobium meliloti symbiosis. Here, we reveal through transcript degradome and small RNA sequencing analysis that knockdown of MtSKI3 impairs the miR172-directed endonucleolytic cleavage of the mRNA encoding Nodule Number Control 1 (MtNNC1), an APETALA2 transcription factor that negatively modulates nodulation. Knockdown of MtNNC1 enhances nodule number, bacterial infection, and the induction of MtENOD40 upon inoculation with S. meliloti whereas overexpression of a miR172-resistant form of MtNNC1 significantly reduces nodule formation. This work identifies miR172 cleavage of MtNNC1 and its control by MtSKI3, a component of the 3´-to- 5´mRNA degradation pathway, as a new regulatory hub controlling indeterminate nodulation.

Project description:Phosphorus (P) deficiency is a major limitation for legume crop production. Although overall adaptations of plant roots to P deficiency have been extensively studied, fragmentary information is available in regards to root nodule responses to P deficiency. In this study, genome wide transcriptome analysis was conducted using RNA-seq analysis to investigate molecular mechanisms underlying soybean (Glycine max) nodule adaptation to phosphate (Pi) starvation. Phosphorus deficiency significantly decreased soybean nodule growth and nitrogenase activity. Nodule Pi concentrations declined by 49% in response to P deficiency, but this was well below the 87% and 88% decreases observed in shoots and roots, respectively. Nodule transcript profiling revealed that a total of 2,055 genes exhibited differential expression patterns between Pi sufficient and deficient conditions. A set of DEGs appeared to be involved in maintaining Pi homeostasis in soybean nodules, including 8 Pi transporters (PTs), 8 proteins containing the SYG1/PHO81/XPR1 domain (SPXs), and 16 purple acid phosphatases (PAPs). The results suggest that a complex transcriptional regulatory network participates in soybean nodule adaption to Pi starvation, most notable a Pi signaling pathway specifically involved in maintaining Pi homeostasis in nodules.

Project description:Soybean (Glycine max) root nodulation is a symbiotic process that requires complex molecular and cellular coordination. The phloem plays a crucial role not only in nutrient transport but also in long-distance signaling that regulates nodulation. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying phloem-specific regulation during nodulation remain poorly characterized. Here, we developed a phloem-specific Translating Ribosome Affinity Purification sequencing (TRAP-seq) system to investigate the translational dynamics of phloem-associated genes during nodulation. Using a phloem-specific promoter (Glyma.01G040700) combined with the GAL4-UAS amplification system, we successfully captured the translatome of soybean root phloem at early (72 hours post-inoculation, hpi) and late (21 days post-inoculation, dpi) nodulation stages. Differential expression analysis revealed dynamic translational reprogramming, with 2,628 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) at 72 hpi and 8,422 DEGs at 21 dpi. Gene ontology and pathway enrichment analyses showed stage-specific regulatory shifts, including early activation of ethylene and defense pathways and late-stage enhancement of nutrient transport and vascular development. Transcription factor analysis identified GmbHLH121 as a key phloem-specific regulator of nodulation. Functional validation using RNAi knockdown and overexpression experiments demonstrated that GmbHLH121 negatively regulates nodule formation, likely acting downstream of or independently from early nodulation signaling pathways. Additionally, we uncovered dynamic regulation of cell wall-modifying enzymes (PME and PMEI) in the phloem, implicating their role in modulating plasmodesmata permeability and facilitating symplastic connectivity during nodulation. Our findings highlight the critical role of phloem-mediated translational regulation in coordinating root nodulation, emphasizing the phloem as an active regulatory hub for long-distance signaling and symbiotic efficiency. This study provides a foundational framework for future research on phloem-specific gene regulation and its impact on legume symbiosis.
