Project description:Purpose: The root hair is a model for understanding evolution of individual cell differentiation programs in plants. We compare the expression of the genes that participate in root hair development between Arabidopsis and other vascular plants to assess the conservation/diversification of the root hair development programs in vascular plants. Methods: We used RNA-Seq, in triplicates, to measure the genome-wide transcription activity of the root-hair cells isolated by Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) in Arabidopsis (COBL9::GFP transgeneic line, AtRH) and rice (EXPA30::GFP transgenic line, OsRH). We also generated RNA-Seq data, in triplicates, on the Arabidopsis rhd6 WER::GFP and WT WER::GFP by FACS to identify the RHD6-regulating root hair morphogenesis genes (AtRHM). For Arabidopsis, rice, tomato, soybean, cucumber and maize, we used RNA-seq, in triplicates, to measure genome-wide transcription activity of root hair cells filtered by sieves after stirred in liquid nitrogen (HAIR genes). Each sample was trimmed to retain high-quality reads, mapped to the reference genome by TopHat, and quantified by Cufflinks. The number of raw reads of Arabidopsis rhd6 WER::GFP and WT WER::GFP sample was counted by HTSeq and analyzed by edgeR to identify the differentially expressed genes. Results: We defined the root-hair transcriptome in diverse vascular plant species and analyzed the relative conservation/divergence in the expression of a large set of gene families.

Project description:Auxin is a key phytohormone regulating central processes in plants that include embryo development, lateral root growth and flower maturation among others. Auxin is sensed by a set of F-Box proteins of the TIR1/AFB3 family triggering auxin dependent responses by a pathway that involves an interplay between the Aux/IAA transcription repressors and the ARF transcription factors. We have previously shown that the AFB3 auxin receptor has a specific role in coordinating primary and lateral root growth to external and internal nitrate availability (Vidal et al., 2010). In this work, we used an integrated genomics, bioinformatics and molecular genetics approach to dissect regulatory networks acting downstream AFB3 that are activated by a transient nitrate treatment in Arabidopsis roots. Our systems approach unraveled key components of the AFB3 regulatory network leading to changes in lateral root growth in response to nitrate.

Project description:Nitrate regulates plant growth and development and acts as a potent signal to control gene expression in Arabidopsis. Using an integrative bioinformatics approach we identified TGA1 and TGA4 as putative regulatory factors that mediate nitrate responses in Arabidopsis thaliana roots. We showed that both TGA1 and TGA4 mRNAs accumulate strongly and quickly after nitrate treatments in root organs in a tissue-specific manner. Phenotypic analysis of tga1/tga4 double mutant plants indicated that TGA1 and TGA4 are necessary for nitrate modulation of both primary and lateral root growth. Global gene expression analysis revealed that 97% of the genes with altered expression in tga1/tga4 double mutant plants are regulated by nitrate treatments indicating these transcription factors have a specific role in nitrate responses in Arabidopsis root organs. Among the nitrate-responsive genes that depend on TGA1/TGA4 for normal regulation of gene expression, we found nitrate transporters NRT2.1, NRT2.2 and nitrite reductase (NIR) genes. Specific binding of TGA1 to its cognate DNA sequence on the target gene promoters was confirmed by chromatin immunoprecipitation assays. These results identify TGA1 and TGA4 as important regulatory factors of the nitrate response in Arabidopsis roots.

Project description:In order to better understand the commonalities and differences in lateral root and nodule development, we compared their organogenesis and correlated this with changes in gene expression. To initiate lateral roots in Medicago truncatula we turned 2-day-old seedlings 135°, before returning them to their original axis of growth, while for nodule initiation we applied droplets of Sinorhizobium meliloti on the susceptibility zone of the root.

Project description:Multigene families encoding diverse secreted peptide hormones play important roles in plant development. A need exists to efficiently elucidate the structures and post-translational-modifications of these difficult-to-isolate peptide hormones in planta so that their biological functions can be determined. A mass spectrometry and bioinformatics approach was developed to comprehensively analyse the secreted peptidome of Medicago hairy root cultures and xylem sap. We identified 759 spectra corresponding to the secreted products of twelve peptide hormones including four CEP (C-TERMINALLY ENCODED PEPTIDE), two CLE (CLV3/ENDOSPERM SURROUNDING REGION RELATED) and six XAP (XYLEM SAP ASSOCIATED PEPTIDE) peptides. The MtCEP1, MtCEP2, MtCEP5 and MtCEP8 peptides identified differed in post-translational-modifications. Most were hydroxylated at conserved proline residues but some MtCEP1 derivatives were tri-arabinosylated. In addition, many CEP peptides possessed unexpected N- and C-terminal extensions. The pattern of these extensions suggested roles for endo- and exoproteases in CEP peptide maturation. Longer -than -expected, hydroxylated and homogeneously modified mono- and tri-arabinosylated CEP peptides corresponding to their in vivo structures were chemically synthesised to probe the effect of these post-translational-modifications on function. The ability of CEP peptides to elevate root nodule number was increased by hydroxylation at key positions. MtCEP1 peptides with N-terminal extensions or with tri-arabinosylation modification, however, were unable to impart increased nodulation. The MtCLE5 and MtCLE17 peptides identified were of precise size, and inhibited main root growth and increased lateral root number. Six XAP peptides, each beginning with a conserved DY sulfation motif, were identified including MtXAP1a, MtXAP1b, MtXAP1c, MtXAP3, MtXAP5 and MtXAP7. MtXAP1a and MtXAP5 inhibited lateral root emergence. Transcriptional analyses demonstrated peptide hormone gene expression in the root vasculature and tip. Since hairy roots can be induced on many plants, their corresponding root cultures may represent ideal source materials to efficiently identify diverse peptide hormones in vivo in a broad range of species.

Project description:Excess levels of Al3+ become highly harmful to plant roots as the toxic ions bind to the surface of root-tips. Plants can acquire tolerance to stress after multiple generations of exposure to stress conditions. After four consecutive generations of Al treatments (G4Al+ seeds), tomato plants appeared more tolerant to the stress condition. This project used laser capture microdissection (LCM) technology to isolate the Al-sensitive epidermal and outer cortical cells of root-tips. Tandem mass tag (TMT) proteomics analysis was conducted to identify proteomics changes related to the physiological properties in root growth under Al treated conditions.

Arabidopsis seedlings of the Col-0 and tga1/tga4 genotypes were grown on hydroponic medium containing 1X MS salts without Nitrogen, supplemented with 0.5 mM ammonium succinate as Nitrogen source and 3 mM sucrose on a Percival chamber under a photoperiod of 16 hours of light (100 ?E/m2/sec) and 8 hours of dark at 22°C for 14 days. The plants were treated at the onset of the light cycle with 5 mM KNO3 or 5 mM KCl as control for 2 hours. Whole roots were cut from seedlings and frozen on liquid Nitrogen. Total RNA was extracted using the TriZol reagent. 3 independent biological replicates were performed.
