Project description:Investigation of gene expression level changes in snapdragon petals and sepals during flower development The flower developmental stages analyzed in this study are representative of distinct developmental events: (i) preanthesis, (ii) anthesis, (iii) maturation and (iv) presenescence and are further described in the accompanying article. A 24 chip study using total RNA recovered from samples of petal and sepal tissue of Antirrhinum majus cv. Maryland True Pink harvested at four different stages of flower development, namely (i) preanthesis (three days before flower opening=d-3), (ii) anthesis (day of flower opening=d1), (iii) maturation (four days after flower opening=d4) and (iv) presenescence (seven days after flower opening=d7). Three separate samples were extracted per tissue and developmental stages. Each chip measures the expression level of 11,959 ESTs from Antirrhinum majus cv. Maryland True Pink with up to six 60-mer probes per target.

Project description:Investigation of genome-wide gene expression in sepals, petals, stamens, staminodia and carpels in pre-anthesis Aquilegia flowers. One goal was to identify transcriptional signatures associated with petaloidy by comparing gene expression in petals and petaloid sepals. Other goals were to study the evolutionary origin and ecological function of staminodia by comparing a) expression patterns in stamens, staminodia and carpels, b) identifying transcriptional regulators expressed in staminodia and c) using gene set enrichment analysis to identify biological processes operating in staminodia.

Project description:During the process of flower opening, most petals move downward in the direction of pedicel (i.e., epinastic movement). In most Delphinium flowers, however, their two lateral petals display a very peculiar movement, the mirrored helical rotation. Such a distinctive petal movement requires the twist of the stalk. However, in some lineages, their lateral petals also exhibit asymmetric bending that increases the degree of mirrored helical rotation, facilitating the formation of a 3D final shape. Notably, the petal asymmetric bending is a novel trait that has not been noticed yet so that its morphological nature, developmental process and molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here, by using D. anthriscifolium as a model, we determined that the petal asymmetric bending was caused by localized expansion of cell width, accompanied with specialized arrangement of surface ornamentation, on the adaxial epidermis. Digital gene analyses, gene expression and functional studies revealed that a class I homeodomain-leucine zipper family transcription factor gene, DeanLATE MERISTEM IDENTITY1 (DeanLMI1), contributes to the petal asymmetric bending; knockdown of it led to the formation of explanate 2D petals. Specifically, DeanLMI1 promotes cell expansion in width and influences the arrangement of surface ornamentation, through regulating the auxin distribution, on the localized adaxial epidermis. These results not only provide a comprehensive portrait of petal asymmetric bending for the first time, but also shed some new insight into the mechanisms of flower opening and helical movement in plants.

Project description:The production of heather (Calluna vulgaris) in Germany is highly dependent on cultivars with mutated flower morphology, the so-called diplocalyx bud bloomers. So far, this unique flower type of C. vulgaris has not been reported in any other plant species. The flowers are characterised by an extremely extended flower attractiveness, since the flower buds remain closed throughout the complete flowering season. The flowers of C. vulgaris bud bloomers are male sterile, because the stamens are missing. Furthermore, petals are converted into sepals. Therefore the diplocalyx bud bloomer flowers consist of two whorls of sepals directly followed by the gynoecium. A broad comparison of wild type and bud bloomer’s flowers was undertaken to identify genes differentially expressed in the bud flowering phenotype and in the wild type of C. vulgaris. Transcriptome sequence reads were generated using next generation 454 sequencing of two flower type specific cDNA libraries. In total, 360,000 sequence reads were obtained, assembled to 12,200 contigs, functionally mapped, and annotated. Transcript abundances in wild type and bud bloomer’s libraries were compared and 365 differentially expressed genes detected. Among these differentially genes, CvPI was identified which is the orthologue of the Arabidopsis B gene PISTILLATA (PI) and considered as the most promising candidate gene. Quantitative PCR was performed to analyse the gene expression levels of two C. vulgaris B genes CvPI and CvAP3 in both flower types. CvAP3 which is the orthologue of the Arabidopsis B gene APETALA (AP3) turned out to be ectopically expressed in sepals of wild type and bud bloomer flowers. CvPI expression was proven to be reduced in the flowers of bud blooming cultivars. Differential expression patterns of the B-class genes CvAP3 and CvPI were identified to cause characteristics of flower morphology in C. vulgaris wild type and bud blooming flowers leading to the following hypotheses: ectopic expression of CvAP3 is a convincing explanation for the formation of a completely petaloid perianth in the wild type and the “bud flowering” phenotype. In C. vulgaris, CvPI is essential for determination of petal and stamen identity. The characteristic transition of petals into sepals potentially depends on the observed deficiency of CvPI and CvAP3 expression in bud blooming flowers. However, the complete loss of stamens in bud blooming flowers remains to be explained. two samples were analysed, each representing a flower type

Project description:These analyses allowed the identification of more than 2000 genes regulated by the MADS TF, SEPALLATA3 (SEP3). Although the involvement of SEP3 in all flower organ development is well established, the single sep3 mutant shows no flower phenotype, due to redundancy with other SEPALLATA genes. The triple mutant, sep1sep2sep3, shows no floral organ development except sepals, while the sep1sep2 mutant showed characteristic WT flower with, from the outer to the inner whorl of the flower, 4 sepals, 4 petals, 6 stamens and one gynoecium. We performed RNA-seq analysis on sep1sep2, sep1sep2sep3 and on sep1sep2sep3 lines complemented with SEP3 to highlight genes involved in floral organ development and controlled by SEP3. For this purpose we compared gene expression between the triple and the double mutant, and between triple mutant lines complemented with SEP3 and the triple mutant. Genes were considered regulated by SEP3 when the log FC was between 1 and -1 and the FDR <0.05. Using these criteria, we obtained a list of >2000 genes regulated by SEP3.
