Project description:Phalaenopsis aprodite subsp. formosana is one of the most important species for Phalaenopsis breeding. A mutant line with variegated leaf is found in this species. The green leaves bear unstable yellow sectors. In order to investigate the molecular mechanism of the variegated mutant line, we sequenced the transcriptome of variegated mutant by Illumina's Solexa sequencing technology. The sequence analysis results showed 22,598 unigenes by de novo assembly method, and the average unigene length was 1,286 bp. The bioinformatics tools were used to screen the differential expression between green and yellow sectors of leaves. There were 389 differentially expressed unigenes were identified. In addition, Gene ontology (GO) and KEGG pathway analyses revealed diverse biological functions and processes from differentially expressed genes. In transcriptome analysis, seven differential expression gene between the green and yellow sectors of leaves can be identified as CHLM, CRD1, POR, CLH, SGR, psbA and Lhcb6 by RNA deep sequencing. The expression of candidate genes was confirmed using semi-quantitative reverse transcription (RT) PCR and real-time RT PCR. The result showed that the significantly differential expression of CLH and SGR between green and yellow sectors was confirmed. It is suggested that the overexpressed SGR gene promotes the function of chlorophyllase, leading to the rapid degradation of chlorophyll in yellow sector. It causes the chlorophyll to not accumulate in the yellow sector, as a result, the variegated leaves are shown.

Project description:The yellow variegated2 (var2) mutant in Arabidopsis thaliana has been studied as a typical leaf-variegated mutant whose defect results from the lack of FtsH2 metalloprotease in chloroplasts. The var2 green sectors suffer from photooxidative stress and accumulate high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) because of compromised Photosystem II repair. This study investigated and compared microarray-based expression profiles of green and white sectors of var2 leaves. Results suggest that ROS that accumulate in chloroplasts of var2 green sectors do not cause much significant change of the transcriptional profile related to ROS signaling and scavenging. In contrast, transcriptome in white sectors apparently differs from those in green sectors and wild type. Numerous genes related to photosynthesis and chloroplast functions were repressed in white sectors. Furthermore, many genes related to oxidative stress were up-regulated. Among them, we specifically examined ROS scavenging genes, such as Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase 2 (CSD2), that were apparently up-regulated in white but not in green sectors. Up-regulation of CSD2 appears to be partly attributable to the lack of a microRNA (miR398) in white sectors. Together, we concluded that white sectors exhibit response to oxidative and other stresses, including CSD2 up-regulation, which might be commonly found in tissues with abnormal chloroplast differentiation.

Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype Columbia (Col), used as the wild-type, and var2-1 (var2) were grown in MS medium supplemented with Gamborgâ??s vitamins (Sigma-Aldrich). MS medium was supplemented with 1.5% (w/v) sucrose and 0.7% (w/v) agar. Plants were maintained under a 12 h light (70 μmolâ?¢m-2â?¢s-1)/12 h dark cycle at 22°C. Green and white sectors, surgically separated and collected from 4-week-old true leaves were subjected to total RNA extraction. We also extracted total RNA from Col. Three biological replicates were performed for each sample.

Project description:Leaf colour variation is observed in several plants. We obtained two types of branches with yellow (H1) and variegated (H2) leaves from Camellia sinensis. To reveal the mechanisms that underlie the leaf colour variations, proteomic analysis using label-free MS-based approach was performed using leaves from variants and normal branches (CKs).

Project description:Ilex x ‘Whoa Nellie’ is a yellow leaf (YT) mutant of I. x ‘Nellie R. Stevens’ (WT), an important ornamental woody species. However, the molecular mechanism of the YT mutant remains unknown. Therefore，we compared yellow-colored mutant leaves and normal green leaves in transcriptomic terms. Our study contributed to uncovering molecular mechanisms underlying yellow leaf mutaion and provided a reference for the application of leaf color mutants.

Project description:Purpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized systems-based analysis of leaf color at different development stages. The goals of this study are to compare chlorophyll metabolism and chloroplast organization transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) to microarray and quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT–PCR) methods and to evaluate protocols for optimal high-throughput data analysis Methods: leaf mRNA profiles of 12 RNA sequencing libraries (S1, S2, S3_S, and S3_C) were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using an Illumina HiSeq 4000 system. After removing reads of low quality, those that remained were mapped to the reference genome (ftp://ftp.ensemblgenomes.org/pub/release-38/plants/genbank/brassica_oleracea/) using the HISAT package, allowing for a maximum of two mismatches and multiple alignments per read (up to 20 by default). qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped about 571.74 million sequence reads per sample to the the reference genome (ftp://ftp.ensemblgenomes.org/pub/release-38/plants/genbank/brassica_oleracea/) and identified 1028, 4323, 428, and 1033 DEGs were detected in pairwise comparison (S2 vs. S1, S3_S vs. S2, S3_S vs. S2, and S3_S vs. S3_C, respectively). The DEGs were associated with ‘photosynthesis’, ‘carbon fixation in photosynthetic organisms’, ‘porphyrin and chlorophyll metabolism’ and other pathways in the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes database; DEGs related to chloroplast organization were identified in the Gene Ontology analysis. The DEGs identified by RNA sequencing were confirmed by qRT-PCR analysis, indicating that the data were reliable. These findings provide information that can be useful for investigating the molecular basis for leaf variegation in ornamental kale and other plants. Conclusions: The results presented here reveal changes in the transcriptome profile of a variegated leaf kale. DEGs related to chlorophyll metabolism and chloroplast organization were detected. These results demonstrate that leaf color at different stages of development is influenced by chloroplast and pigment metabolism, providing a foundation for investigating the molecular basis for leaf variegation in ornamental kale and other plants.

Project description:To unveil the role of posttranslational modification in the variegated phenotype, we conducted global quantitative phosphoproteomic analysis on different leaf color sectors of Maiyuanjinqiu and the corresponding of Catalpa fargesii using Ti4+-IMAC phosphopeptide enrichment. 3778 phosphorylated sites assigned to 1646 phosphoproteins were identified, and 3221 in 1434 proteins were quantified. Differential phosphoproteins (above 1.5 or below 1/1.5) in various leaf color sectors were selected for functional enrichment analyses. GO enrichment revealed that processes of photosynthesis, regulation of the generation of precursor metabolites, response to stress, homeostasis, amino acid metabolism, transport–related processes and most of the energy metabolisms might contribute to leaf color. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis was performed based on differential phosphoproteins (DPs) in different organelles. The result showed that most enriched pathways were located in the chloroplasts and cytosol. The phosphorylation levels of glycometabolism enzymes might greatly affect leaf variegation.
