Project description:The use of new natural eco-sustainable products is becoming an interesting option in order to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers and increase crop yields. Seaweed extracts are gained major attention as plant biostimulants due to their positive effect on plant-growth as well as on improving plants’ tolerance against abiotic stresses. Among the horticulture crops, lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) is a major fresh vegetable crop in the Mediterranean area, which often requires the use of natural biostimulants to improve both the quantity and quality of production. The aim of this work was to assess the effect of either Chlorella vulgaris or Scenedesmus quadricauda extracts on lettuce seedlings (Lactuca sativa L.) by motoring the induced transcriptomic modifications using a RNASeq approach. The results showed that both C. vulgaris and S. quadricauda extracts positively influence the growth of lettuce seedlings. However, a higher reprogramming of the gene expression occurred in the case of C. vulgaris treatment than in S. quadricauda extract. Considering the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway functional enrichments, the main KEGG terms are in the “Biosynthesis of secondary metabolites”, “Metabolic pathways”, “Carbon metabolism” and “Biosynthesis of amino acids” categories. This study lays the basis for understanding the mechanisms and processes triggered by the use of microalgal extracts, which can represent an easier-to-handle and cheaper method for an eco-sustainable cultivation of lettuce plants than the application of chemicals.

Project description:Increasing evidence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa on fresh plant-based foods raises food safety concerns. While internalization of pathogens such as Salmonella enterica in vegetables such as lettuce is well documented, corresponding data for P. aeruginosa are lacking. Moreover, climate change-associated temperature shifts may influence the plant microbiota and the presence of human pathogens. This study investigates the internalization and temperature-dependent gene expression of P. aeruginosa PAO1 on green oak leaf lettuce as a model system. For this purpose, oak leaf lettuce was cultivated in soil inoculated with P. aeruginosa PAO1_sfGFP_UHH07, and internalization was analyzed using confocal laser scanning microscopy. Temperature-dependent transcriptomic changes of P. aeruginosa PAO1 were assessed by analyzing differentially expressed genes following plant inoculation and incubation at 18 and 22 °C, respectively. P. aeruginosa PAO1 is capable of internalizing into the roots of oak leaf lettuce, but a translocation into leaves was not detected. Transcriptomic analyses showed that a moderate temperature increase shifts bacterial gene expression, with virulence genes upregulated at 22 °C and persistence-associated genes predominating at 18 °C. These results show that temperature influences the persistence and pathogenic potential of P. aeruginosa present on oak leaf lettuce, highlighting potential impacts of climate change on food safety.

Project description:Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) is one of the most important leafy vegetable that is consumed during its vegetative growth. The transition from vegetative to reproductive growth is induced by high temperature, which has significant economic effect on lettuce production. However, the progression of floral transition and the molecular regulation of bolting are largely unknown. Here we morphologically characterized the inflorescence development and functionally analyzed the FLOWERING LOCUS T (LsFT) gene during bolting regulation in lettuce. We described the 8 developmental stages during floral transition process. The expression of LsFT was negatively correlated with bolting in different lettuce varieties, and was promoted by heat treatment. Overexpression of LsFT could recover the late-flowering phenotype of ft-2 mutant. Knockdown of LsFT by RNA interference dramatically delayed bolting in lettuce, and failed to respond to high temperature. Therefore, this study dissects the process of inflorescence development and characterizes the role of LsFT in bolting regulation in lettuce.

Project description:Bolting is a key process in the growth and development of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.). High temperature can induce earlier bolting which decreases in both quality and production of lettuce. However, knowledge underlying lettuce bolting is still lacking. To better understand the molecular basis of bolting, a comparative proteomics analysis was conducted on lettuce stems in the bolting period induced by high temperature (33 °C) compared with a control (20 °C) using iTRAQ-based proteomics, phenotypic measures, and biological verifications. High temperature induced lettuce bolting, while control temperature did not. Of the 6656 proteins identified, 758 proteins significantly altered their expression level induced by high-temperature relative to the control, of which 409 were up-regulated and 349 down-regulated. Proteins with abundance level change were mainly involved in photosynthesis, carbohydrate metabolism, stress response, hormone synthesis, and signal transduction. These differential proteins were mainly enriched in pathways associated with photosynthesis and tryptophan metabolism involving in auxin (IAA) biosynthesis. Among the differentially expressed proteins associated with photosynthesis and tryptophan metabolism were up-regulated. Moreover, in gibberellin (GA) biosynthesis pathway, 10 of main enzymes of P450 were up-regulated. Proteins related to SAUR and GRP, implicated in IAA and GA signal transduction were up-regulated, and the phosphorylation and ubiquitination related proteins regulating IAA and GA signal transduction were also induced. These findings indicate that a high temperature enhances the function of photosynthesis, IAA and GA synthesis and signal transduction to promote the process of bolting, which is in line with the physiology and transcription levels of IAA and GA metabolism. Our data provide a first comprehensive dataset for gaining novel understanding of the molecular basis underlying lettuce bolting induced by high temperature. It is potentially important for further functional analysis and genetic manipulation for molecular breeding to breed new cultivar of lettuce to restrain early bolting, which is vital for improving vegetable quality.

Project description:Leaf size and flatness directly affect photosynthesis and are closely related to agricultural yield. The final leaf size and shape are coordinately determined by cell proliferation, differentiation, and expansion during leaf development. Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) is one of the most important leafy vegetables worldwide, and lettuce leaves vary in shape and size. However, the molecular mechanisms of leaf development in lettuce are largely unknown. In this study, we showed that the lettuce APETALA2 (LsAP2) gene regulates leaf morphology. LsAP2 encodes a transcriptional repressor that contains the conserved EAR motif, which mediates interactions with the TOPLESS/TOPLESS-RELATED (TPL/TPR) corepressors. Overexpression of LsAP2 led to small and crinkly leaves, and many bulges were seen on the surface of the leaf blade. LsAP2 physically interacted with the CINCINNATA (CIN)-like TEOSINTE BRANCHED1/CYCLOIDEA/PROLIFERATING CELL FACTOR (TCP) transcription factors and inhibited their transcriptional activation activity. RNA sequencing analysis showed that LsAP2 affected the expression of auxin- and polarity-related genes. In addition, LsAP2 directly repressed the abaxial identity gene KANADI2 (LsKAN2). Together, these results indicate that LsAP2 regulates leaf morphology by inhibiting CIN-like TCP transcription factors and repressing LsKAN2, and our work provides insights into the regulatory mechanisms of leaf development in lettuce.

Project description:Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) is a highly perishable horticultural crop with a relatively short shelf life due to leaf senescence that limits its commercial value and contributes to food waste. Postharvest senescence varies with influences of both environmental and genetic factors. Preharvest genetic factors can be indicative of postharvest quality. Discovery of additional preharvest markers to assess lettuce shelf life is an important step towards increasing the efficiency of lettuce breeding efforts for improved shelf life. We selected and evaluated three romaine lettuces with variable shelf lives with the aim of identifying preharvest markers of lettuce postharvest shelf life. We evaluated leaf morphological characteristics for each of the three cultivars. To assess molecular indicators of shelf life, we used an RNA sequencing approach to construct transcriptomic profiles of two of the cultivars, a short shelf life (SSL) breeding line 60184 and a long shelf life (LSL) cultivar ‘Okeechobee’ at maturity. We identified 552 upregulated and 315 downregulated differentially expressed (DE) genes between the genotypes. We found that 27 % of the DE lettuce genes had an Arabidopsis thaliana ortholog characterized as senescence-associated, indicating that variable expression of senescence-associated genes (SAGs) could serve as a tool for preharvest markers of postharvest shelf life. Notably, we identified several SAGs and functional groupings with highly differential expression between the cultivars. This includes several jasmonate ZIM-domain (JAZ), jasmonic acid (JA) signaling genes, chlorophyll a-b binding (CAB) chloroplast-associated genes, and cell wall modification genes including pectate lyases (PL) and expansins (EXP). This study presented an innovative approach for identifying molecular markers for preharvest factors linked to postharvest traits for prolonged shelf. These genes could potentially be developed further as preharvest predictors of shelf life for lettuce breeding

Project description:Purpose: The purpose of this study are to identify the miRNA involved in regulating the production of metabolites in Chlorella sorokiniana and Chlorella zofingiensis under normal and stress-induced condition through RNA-sequencing technique. Methods: miRNA transcriptome profile from normal and stress sample of C. sorokiniana and C. zofingiensis were generated, in triplicate, using Illumina Miseq. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analysed using CLC genomic workbench and OmiRas. Results: The known and predicted novel miRNAs were identified. Although most of the identified miRNAs were not functionally determined, this study suggests that they were species-specific, which may have roles in regulating genes during stress related condition.
