Project description:As a prerequisite for constant growth, plants can produce vascular tissues at different sites in their postembryonic body. In particular, the formation of vascular tissues during longitudinal and radial expansion of growth axes differs fundamentally with respect to its anatomical configuration. This raises the question to which level regulatory mechanisms of vascular tissue formation are shared throughout plant development. Here, we show that, similar as primary phloem formation during longitudinal growth, the cambium-based formation of secondary phloem depends on the function of SMXL genes. Using promoter reporter lines, we observe that SMXL4 and SMXL5 activities are associated with different stages of secondary phloem formation in Arabidopsis stems and that specific loss of SMXL5 function results in the absence of secondary phloem. Interestingly, the additional disruption of SMXL4 activity increases cell proliferation rates in the cambium region without forming secondary phloem. Based on genome-wide transcriptional profiling and expression analyses of phloem-related markers we conclude that early steps of phloem formation are impaired in smxl4;smxl5 double mutants and that additional cambium-derived cells fail in establishing any phloem-related feature. Our results show that molecular mechanisms determining primary and secondary phloem share important features but differ slightly with SMXL5 playing a more dominant role in the formation of secondary phloem.

Project description:In this study, we used vascular specific promoters and a translating ribosome affinity purification strategy to identify phloem associated translatomes in Prunus domestica L. Three different promoter:FLAG-RPL18 lines were used. These included two phloem specific promoters (pSUC2 and pSULTR2;2), as well as the more ubiquitously expressed cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter (p35S). Immunopurification of ribosome-mRNA complexes was accomplished by the method described in Reynoso et al. (Plant Functional Genomics: Methods and Protocols, 185-207; 2015). The dataset includes samples from plum leaves taken at 2, 4 and 6 weeks post vernalization.

Project description:The vascular system of plants consists of xylem, phloem and procambium in a specific pattern. The phloem consists of sieve elements, the apparatus for bulk flow of photo-assimilates, and companion cells, which mediate transport of photo-assimilates between the sieve elements and surrounding cells and support the biological activities of the sieve element cells. The regulatory mechanisms of vascular development are being uncovered. Here we show that PHLOEM EARLY DOFs (PEARs) and related genes (collectively phloem-Dofs) not only regulate the number of procambium cell files, but also positively regulate phloem differentiation. Overexpression of phloem-Dofs induced cells that expressed either sieve element or companion cell marker genes, which are mutually exclusive. Conversely, disruption of phloem-Dofs caused loss of phloem. Phloem-Dofs induce CLAVATA3/EMBRYO SURROUNDING REGION-RELATED25 (CLE25) and CLE26 peptides, which in turn inhibit expression of phloem-Dofs and phloem formation, forming a negative feedback loop. Disruption of multiple genes for either phloem-expressed CLEs, BARELY ANY MERISTEM (BAM)-class receptors, or their coreceptors, CLAVATA3 INSENSITIVE RECEPTOR KINASEs (CIKs), caused excess formation of phloem cell files. We further show that phloem-Dofs are under positive self and mutual regulation. These positive and negative feedback loops create the proper phloem pattern.

Project description:Phloem is essential for higher plant development and survival by transporting photosynthetic products and systemic signals from source to sink organs. To date, most phloem studies were performed with the phloem exudate for physiological, transcriptomic or proteomic analyses. However, as yet, no transcriptomic profiling was performed to the phloem tissue itself, probably due to the technique difficulties to access the phloem tissue inside the plant body. In this study, laser microdissection combined with RNA-Seq technology was used to gain phloem-specific transcript profiling in three different organs (pedicle, stalk and fruit) of cucumber, a model plant species for phloem research. We found that transcription factors and biotic/abiotic stress related genes are highly enriched in the sink organs, while cell growth via calcium ion, hormone actions and cell cycle control was largely restricted in the pedicle and stalk, and genes implicated in transporting amino acids and sugars are mostly up-regulated in the pedicle. Further, we found excellent corroboration between phloem-specific gene expression, and physiological characterization with phloem function. In addition, we identified 432 cucumber-unique genes and several phloem-specific markers for future functional studies. This study provides new insights into the molecular genetics of the function of phloem tissue in cucumber, rather than the conventional phloem sap analyses.

Project description:This sudy focuses on the identification of transcripts in the shoot phloem of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Transcripts expressed in the phloem tissue (parenchyma cell, companion cell, sieve element) were excised by laser microdissection pressure catapulting (LMPC). These were compared with transcripts isolated from leaf phloem exudates by EDTA-chelation technique. Optimization of sample harvest resulted in RNA of high quality from both sources. Modifications of the RNA amplification procedure obtained RNA of sufficient yield and quality for microarray experiments. Microarrays (Affymetrix, ATH1) hybridized with RNA derived from phloem tissue by LMPC or phloem sap allowed us to differentiate between phloem located and mobile transcript species. The datasets provide a search criterion for phloem-based signals and will facilitate reverse genetic studies and forward genetic screens for phloem and long distance RNA signaling mutants. Experiment Overall Design: Arabidopsis plants were cultivated under short day conditions (8 h light) until flowering. Phloem tissue was isolated by Lasermicrodissection and Pressure Catapulting (LMPC) and phloem exudate by EDTA-chelation technique. In both experiments poly-A-RNA was extracted and amplified before hybridization of microarrays (Affymetrix, ATH1). For both experiments three LMPC-derived phloem tissue (LMPC-derived phloem_1-3) and three phloem exudate samples (Phloem exudate_1-3) were analysed. Precise protocols of plant growth, sample harvest, RNA extraction and amplification are provided in Deeken et al., 2008.

Project description:The objective of this study was to identify nutrient-responsive small RNAs in different tissues and in phloem sap of rape plants. miRNA microarrays containing all currently known plant miRNAs (Sanger miRBase versions 10.0, 10.1 and 11.0), and a set of unknown small RNAs cloned earlier from Brassica phloem sap (Bn_PsRNA) were used. The phloem, leaf and root response to nutrient deficiency were analyzed by removing either sulfate, copper or iron from the growth medium. The small RNA profile from phloem and inflorescence stems of plants grown under full nutrition conditions was also analyzed and compared. The study demonstrates that the phloem sap sRNA profile is distinct from that of the inflorescence stems, leaves and roots. Furthermore, we could identify phloem-enriched small RNAs and showed that some of them specifically accumulate in the phloem in response to nutrient deprivation.

Project description:The morphogenesis of higher plants requires communication among distant organs throughout vascular tissues (xylem and phloem). Numerous investigations have demonstrated that phloem also act as a distribution route for signalling molecules being observed that different macromolecules translocated by the sap, including nucleic acids and proteins, change under stress situations. The participation of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in this communication has been suggested, although little is known about their role. In fact, in the last decade, the presence of EVs in plants has originated a great controversy, where major concerns arose from their origin, isolation methods, and even the appropriate nomenclature for plant nanovesicles.
