Integrated metabolomic and transcriptomic analysis reveals distinct accumulation patterns in three Brassicaceae crops

ABSTRACT: Brassica napus, Camelina sativa and field pennycress (Thlaspi arvense) are three important oilseed crops in the Brassicaceae family. As sessile organisms, these crops are continuously exposed to various stresses when grown in the field. Interestingly, the responses of these three crops to different environmental stimuli vary to a great extent, but there is very limited knowledge about the molecular basis of these discrepancies. In this study, we employed untargeted metabolomics to compare the metabolic profile of these crops, and examined the potential causal genes through further integration with transcriptomic analysis. Our data revealed distinctive overall metabolic profiles among these three crops, where in particular, a variety of phenylpropanoids showed differential accumulation and the corresponding putative genes’ expression varied significantly. Our results here will provide valuable insight into the understanding of metabolic variations among these three important oilseed crops, and provide potential targets for the future breeding of stress tolerant crops.

Propelling sustainable energy: Multi-omics analysis of pennycress FATTY ACID ELONGATION 1 knockout for biofuel production

Project description:The aviation industry’s growing interest in renewable jet fuel has encouraged the exploration of alternative oilseed crops. Replacing traditional fossil fuels with a sustainable, domestically sourced crop can substantially reduce carbon emissions, thus mitigating global climate instability. Pennycress (Thlaspi arvense L.) is an emerging oilseed intermediate crop that can be grown during the offseason between maize (Zea mays) and soybean (Glycine max) to produce renewable biofuel. Pennycress is being domesticated through breeding and mutagenesis, providing opportunities for trait enhancement. Here, we employed metabolic engineering strategies to improve seed oil composition and bolster the plant's economic competitiveness. FATTY ACID ELONGATION 1 (FAE1) was targeted using CRISPR-Cas 9 gene editing to eliminate very long chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) from pennycress seed oil, thereby enhancing its cold flow properties. Through an integrated multi-omics approach, we investigated the impact of eliminating VLCFAs in developing and mature plant embryos. Our findings revealed improved cold-germination efficiency in fae1, with seedling emergence occurring up to three days earlier at 10 ºC. However, these alterations led to a trade-off between storage oil content and composition. Additionally, these shifts in lipid biosynthesis were accompanied by broad metabolic changes, such as the accumulation of glucose and ADP-glucose quantities consistent with increased starch production. Furthermore, shifts to shorter FA chains triggered the upregulation of heat shock proteins, underscoring the importance of VLCFAs in stress signaling pathways. Overall, this research provides crucial insights for optimizing pennycress seed oil while preserving essential traits for biofuel applications.

The pennycress (Thlaspi arvense) nectary transcriptome

Project description:Nectaries are the glands responsible for nectar secretion. To understand the genetic programming underlying nectar production, nectaries were collected from Thlaspi arvense cultivar MN108 at two developmental time points, with RNA being isolated and subjected to Illumina RNA-seq analysis.

Nutritional evaluation of an EPA-DHA oil from transgenic Camelina sativa in feeds for post-smolt Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)

Project description:Vegetable oils (VO) are possible substitutes for fish oil in aquafeeds but are limited by their lack of omega-3 (n-3) long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA). However, oilseed crops can be modified to produce n-3 LC-PUFA such as eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) acids, representing a potential option to fill the gap between supply and demand of these important nutrients. Camelina sativa was metabolically engineered to produce a seed oil with around 15 % total n-3 LC-PUFA to potentially substitute for fish oil in salmon feeds. Post-smolt Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) were fed for 11-weeks with one of three experimental diets containing either fish oil (FO), wild-type Camelina oil (WCO) or transgenic Camelina oil (DCO) as added lipid source to evaluate fish performance, nutrient digestibility, tissue n-3 LC-PUFA, and metabolic impact determined by liver transcriptome analysis. The DCO diet did not affect any of the performance or health parameters studied and enhanced apparent digestibility of EPA and DHA compared to the WCO diet. The level of total n-3 LC-PUFA was higher in all the tissues of DCO-fed fish than in WCO-fed fish with levels in liver similar to those in fish fed FO. Endogenous LC-PUFA biosynthetic activity was observed in fish fed both the Camelina oil diets as indicated by the liver transcriptome and levels of intermediate metabolites such as docosapentaenoic acid, with data suggesting that the dietary combination of EPA and DHA inhibited desaturation and elongation activities. Expression of genes involved in phospholipid and triacylglycerol metabolism followed a similar pattern in fish fed DCO and WCO despite the difference in n-3 LC-PUFA contents.

A nutritionally-enhanced oil from transgenic Camelina sativa effectively replaces marine fish oil as a source of eicosapentaenoic acid for farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)

Project description:The use of high levels of marine fish oil in aquafeeds is a non-sustainable practice. However, more sustainable oils sources from terrestrial plants do not contain long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA). Consequently, feeds based on conventional vegetable oils reduce n-3 LC-PUFA levels in farmed fish. Therefore, the aquaculture industry desperately requires new, sustainable oil sources that contain high levels of n-3 LC-PUFA in order to supply the increasing demand for fish and seafood while maintaining the high nutritional quality of the farmed product. One approach to the renewable supply of n-3 LC-PUFA is metabolic engineering oilseed crops with the capacity to synthesize these essential fatty acids in seeds. In the present study, the oilseed Camelina sativa has been transformed with algal genes encoding the n-3 biosynthetic pathway and expression restricted to the seeds via seed-specific promoters to produce an oil containing > 20% eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). This oil was investigated as a replacement for marine fish oil in feeds for post-smolt Atlantic salmon. In addition, this study with EPA-rich oil will contribute to our understanding of the biochemical and molecular mechanisms involved in the control and regulation of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) production from EPA, and will thus better inform our understanding of this key part of the LC-PUFA biosynthetic pathway.

Exploring Camelina sativa lipid metabolism regulation by combining gene co-expression and DNA affinity purification analyses

Project description:Camelina is an annual oilseed plant that is gaining momentum as a biofuel winter cover crop. Understanding gene regulatory networks (GRNs) is essential to deciphering plant metabolic pathways, including lipid metabolism. Here, we take advantage of a growing collection of gene expression datasets to predict transcription factors (TFs) associated with the control of Camelina lipid metabolism. Also, we performed RNA-seq assays of Camelina's seed at 5, 8, and 11 days post-anthesis (DPA) to improve the transcriptomic resolution of the early stages of the Camelina seed development. We identified ~350 TFs highly co-expressed with lipid-related genes (LRGs). After prioritizing the top 22 TFs for further validation, we identified DNA-binding sites and predicted target genes for 16/22 TF using DNA affinity purification sequencing (DAP-seq). Enrichment analyses supported the co-expression prediction for most TF candidates, and the comparison to Arabidopsis revealed some common themes and aspects unique to Camelina. Altogether, the integration of co-expression data and DNA-binding assays permitted us to generate a high-confident and shortlist of Camelina TFs involved in controlling lipid metabolism during seed development.
