Project description:Transcriptional differentiation in response to environmental stresses plays critical roles in adaptation. Mangroves are dominant in intertidal zones and form dense forest at the sea-land interface, but little is known about the impact of transcriptional phenotype on their adaptation to the saline environments. To address this issue, we prepared customized chips containing cDNA from the root cDNA library of a mangrove species, Ceriops tagal, and then monitored the time-course transcript profiles in the roots by conducting a series of microarray experiments. Five durations of salt shock with 500 mM NaCl, namely 2, 5, 10, 24 and 192 hours, were included. A total of 88 unigenes that were recognized to be up- or down-regulated by salt shock and both gene categories in relation to stresses-induced responses and transcription factor activity were over-predominant. The stresses-responsive genes were significantly overrepresented, some of which were regulated in differential manners from their homologues genes in Arabidopsis. Specific transcriptional regulations were employed by C. tagal to cope with salt shock, which could benefit the salt-tolerant lifestyle of this mangrove species and possibly contribute to establishment of adaptation to the saline environments. A reference design was used to analyze gene expression differences. Salt stressed young roots were harvested from seedlings of C. tagal at the ends of each shock duration. Young roots of unshocked seedlings were used as controls and harvested at the same time. Three biological replicates were set up for each treatment and corresponding control, respectively, each containing a pool of total RNA from 4 seedlings. Salt stressed samples were compared with the corresponding controls at each time point by co-hybridizing to the customized cDNA arrays

Project description:Colonization of land from marine environments was a major transition for biological life on Earth, and intertidal adaptation was a key evolutionary event in the transition from marine- to land-based lifestyles. Multicellular intertidal red algae exhibit the earliest, systematic, and successful adaptation to intertidal environments, with Porphyra sensu lato (Bangiales, Rhodophyta) being a typical example. We used proteomic analyse to reveal the complex regulation of rapid responses to intertidal dehydration/rehydration cycling within Neoporphyra haitanensis. These adaptations include rapid regulation of its photosynthetic system, a readily available capacity to utilize ribosomal stores, an excess of methylation supply to rapidly synthesize proteins, and a strong anti-oxidation system to dissipate excess redox energy upon exposure to air. These novel insights into the unique adaptations of red algae to intertidal lifestyles inform our understanding of adaptations to intertidal ecosystems and the unique evolutionary steps required for intertidal colonization by biological life.

Project description:The legume genus Lotus includes glycophytic forage crops and other species adapted to extreme environments, such as saline soils. Understanding salt tolerance mechanisms will contribute to the discovery of new traits which may enhance the breeding efforts towards improved performance of legumes in marginal agricultural environments. Here, we used a combination of ionomic and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)-based metabolite profilings of complete shoots (pooling leaves, petioles and stems) to compare the extremophile Lotus creticus, adapted to highly saline coastal regions, and two cultivated glycophytic grassland forage species, Lotus corniculatus and Lotus tenuis. L. creticus exhibited better survival after exposure to long-term lethal salinity and was more efficient at excluding Cl- from the shoots than the glycophytes. In contrast, Na+ levels were higher in the extremophile under both control and salt stress, a trait often observed in halophytes. Ionomics demonstrated a differential rearrangement of shoot nutrient levels in the extremophile upon salt exposure. Metabolite profiling showed that responses to NaCl in L. creticus shoots were globally similar to those of the glycophytes, providing little evidence for metabolic pre-adaptation to salinity. This study is the first comparing salt acclimation responses between extremophile and non-extremophile legumes, and challenges the generalization of the metabolic salt pre-adaptation hypothesis.

Project description:Sinonovacula constricta is an economically important bivalve species in China, Korea and Japan. It widely resides in estuarine and coastal areas where salinity fluctuates rapidly. However, little is known about its adaptation mechanisms to acute salt stresses. To address this, we establish nine cDNA libraries (triplicate each treatment) from juvenile S. constricta, which were subjected to low salinity (5 psu), optimal salinity (15 psu, the control) and high salinity (25 psu) for 6 h, respectively. Illumina sequencing generated 478,587,310 clean reads totally, which were assembled into 427,057 transcripts of 246,672 unigenes. Compared with the control, 1259 and 2163 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified under acute low and high salt stresses, respectively. GO and KEGG enrichment analyses of DEGs suggested that several key metabolic modulations were mainly responsible for the acute salt stresses. Based on the significantly highlighted KEGG pathways, some key DEGs were identified and discussed in details, including cysteine sulfinic acid decarboxylase, alanine transaminase, glutamine synthetase, glutamate dehydrogenase, nitric-oxide synthase, arginase, betaine-homocysteine S-methyltransferase, serine racemase, L-serine ammonia-lyase, phosphoserine phosphatase, glutamate 5-kinase, glutamate-5-semialdehyde dehydrogenase, ornithine-oxo-acid transaminase, ornithine decarboxylase, stearoyl-CoA desaturase, carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase 1, serine/threonine-protein kinase, NF-kappa-B, NF-kappa-B inhibitor alpha, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and carbohydrate response element binding protein. Furthermore, some potential osmolytes were speculated. In summary, this study would not only provide insights into the adaptation mechanisms to acute salt stresses in juvenile S. constricta, but also facilitate to better understand the physical and biochemical performances of this bivalve species involved in acute salt stresses. Moreover, the transcriptome data obtained here greatly enriched the genetic information of S. constricta, which would be valuable for promoting its molecular biology researches.

Project description:Aspergillus display an amazing level of diversity in physiologies, and environments that they occupy. Strategies for coping with diverse environmental stresses have evolved in different Aspergillus species. Therefore, Aspergillus are considered to be good models for investigating the adaptation and response to many natural and anthropogenic environmental stressors. Recent genome sequencing projects in several Aspergillus have provided insights into the molecular and genetic mechanisms underlying their responses to some environmental stressors. However, to better clarify the conserved and differentiated features of the adaptive response to specific stresses and to trace the evolutionary process of environmental adaptation and response in Aspergillus, insight from more Aspergillus species with different evolutionary positions, such as A. glaucus, and thus offer a large number of models of adaptation and response to various environmental stresses. Here, we report a high-quality reference genome assembly of A. glaucus CCHA from the surface of wild vegetation around saltern of Jilin, China, based on sequence data from whole-genome shotgun (WGS) sequencing platforms of Illumina solexa technologies. This assembly contains 106 scaffolds ( >1 Kb; N50 = ~0.795 Mb), has a length of ~28.9 Mb and covers ~97% of the predicted genome size (~120 Mb). Together with the data analyses from comprehensive transcriptomic surveys and comparative genomic analyses, we aim to obtain new insights into molecular mechanisms of the adaptation to living at high salt in the saltern

Project description:Cellular responses to maladaptive environmental changes—stresses—allow for organismal adaptation to diverse and dynamic conditions. Across the tree of life, cells upregulate a highly conserved transcriptional program in response to so-called proteotoxic stresses such as heat shock. Correspondingly, in eukaryotes, these stresses induce the formation of biomolecular condensates, clusters of mRNA and protein which are referred to as stress granules under severe stress. However, major questions remain about this stress-induced response. How conserved is the condensation response relative to the transcriptional response? How does it vary across environmental niches, and to what extent does it correspond with the conserved transcriptional response? To answer these fundamental questions, we studied the growth, transcriptional, and condensation heat-induced stress responses in three fungal species adapted to thrive in different thermal environments: cryophilic S. kudriavzevii, mesophilic S. cerevisiae, and thermotolerant K. marxianus. Here we show that transcriptional heat shock responses track each species’ evolved temperature range of growth. Further, orthologous proteins—including poly(A)-binding protein, Pab1, a core marker of stress granules—form condensates in vivo at temperatures systematically tuned to the temperature at which the organisms activate the transcriptional heat shock response and slow their growth. In vitro, purified Pab1 from each species condenses autonomously at niche-specific temperatures. Homologous mutations in Pab1 cause similar shifts in relative condensation temperature across species, and crucially, mutations which suppress condensation in vitro also reduce fitness during heat stress. Our findings indicate that stress-induced protein condensation is adaptive, conserved, integrated with the growth and transcriptional responses, and tuned to features of the cellular and organismal environment to initiate at niche-specific levels.

Project description:The mechanisms of cellular and molecular adaptation of fungi to salinity have been commonly drawn from halotolerant strains, although some exceptions in basidiomycete fungi can be found. These studies have been conducted in settings where cells are subjected to stress, either hypo or hyperosmotic, which can be a confounding factor in describing physiological mechanisms related to salinity. Here, we have studied transcriptomic changes in Aspergillus sydowii, a halophilic species, when growing in three different salinity conditions (No salt, 0.5M and 2.0M NaCl). In this fungus salinity related responses occur under high salinity (2.0M NaCl) and not when cultured under optimal conditions (0.5M NaCl), suggesting that in this species, most of the mechanisms described for halophilic growth are a consequence of saline stress response and not an adaptation to saline conditions.
