Project description:The goal of this work was to identify transcripts in maize endosperm that are regulated by water stress and the transcription factor Vp1 Keywords: stress response Plants were grown from F1 hybrid seed produced from inbreds W22 and ACR5855, where both inbred parents contributed mutant vp1-R alleles. Florets were fertilized with pollen from either homozygous vp1 pollen, thus creating vp1/vp1/vp1 mutant endosperms, or Vp1 pollen, thus creating Vp1/vp1/vp1 endosperms. Water stress treatment was imposed by withholding irrigation at 5 days after pollination; endosperms were sampled at 10 d after pollination. The study had 2 X 2 factorial design with two genotypes and two watering treatments; there were 6 biological replicates.

Project description:Periods of soil water deficit could occur at any time during the crop season, but maize is particularly sensitive to water stress around flowering time. At this time the stress usually causes remarkable yield loss. Heading time, which is just before tassel flowering, is one of the most important stages that maize productivity would be affected severely if plants encounter water stress. The whole-genomic gene expression changes of maize plants in response to water deficit stress at this stage have not been studied. The present work utilized an Arizona Maize Oligonucleotide Array Version 1.9，which was consisted of A and B slides carrying with a total of 57,452 maize 70-mer oligonucleotides, was used to monitor gene expression profile changes in maize leaves subjected to 1 day and 7 days water-deficit stress respectively at the heading stage.

Keywords: stress response Maize (Zea mays L.) inbred line DH4866 was used in this study. Plants grew in flowerpots containing field soil under natural conditions. When the tassel spread out of the uppermost leaf, some plants were treated with drought stress for 7 days, and others were left under normal-watered conditions as control. In the period of the stress, the middle part of the top fully expanded leaves of the plants under water stress treatment and the control were taken to measure the leaf osmotic potential at different times by the Fiske® Micro-Osmometer (FISKE® ASSOCIATES, USA). And the stressed plants were watered every day to maintain a similar water-deficiency state by adjusting water supply, according to the osmotic potential of the fully expended leaf of the plants measured at 8:00 am each day. During the stress, the leaf osmotic potential of the stressed plants was hold to -0.4 to -0.5 Mpa, while the osmotic potential was -0.2 to -0.25 Mpa in the leaves of the control plants. And there were visible signs of water deficiency such as leaf rolling during the daytime, though at night the rolled leaves spread out. Maize plants were stress-treated at the beginning of heading stage. After 7 days of water deficiency by withholding water, the plants began to enter the flowering stage. The maize flag leaves were harvested after 24h (1d) and 168h ï¼7dï¼ of stress treatment, frozen in liquid nitrogen immediately and stored at -80â for further analysis. Unstressed plants as controls were harvested at the same time as the stressed plants. One sample consisted of the leaves from three independent plants under the same condition. Total RNA was isolated as McCarty (1986) described from the frozen samples. For each sample, 100ïg of total RNA was transcribed into cDNA and fluorescently labeled with Cy3 and Cy5 dyes using the SuperScript indirect cDNA labeling system (INVITROGEN, USA) according to the manufacturerâs instructions. The Cy3 and Cy5 labels were swapped between sample and control cDNA to minimize any possible impact of inequalities in DNA incorporation and photobleaching of the fluorescent dyes. Hybridizations were performed according to the protocols at the website of the Maize Oligonucleotide Array Project. Two technical replicates (dye-swap experiments) for each biological sample from two independent treatments were performed.

Project description:Epigenetic modification plays important roles in plant and animal development. DNA methylation can impact the transposable element (TE) silencing, gene imprinting and regulate gene expression.Through a genome-wide analysis, DNA methylation peaks were respectively characterized and mapped in maize embryo and endosperm genome. Distinct methylation level across maize embryo and endosperm was observed. The maize embryo genome contained more DNA methylation peaks than endosperm. However, the endosperm chloroplast genome contained more DNA methylation peaks to compare with the embryo chloroplast genome. DNA methylation regions were characterized and mapped in genome. More CG island (CGI) shore are methylated than CGI in maize suggested that DNA methylation level is not positively correlated with CpG density. The DNA methylation occurred more frequently in the promoter sequence and transcriptional termination region (TTR) than other regions of the genes. The result showed that 99% TEs we characterized are methylated in maize embryo, but some (34.8%) of them are not methylated in endosperm. Maize embryo and endosperm exhibit distinct pattern/level of methylation. The most differentially methylated two regions between embryo and endosperm are High CpG content promoters (HCPs) and high CpG content TTRs (HCTTRs). DNA methylation peaks distinction of mitochondria and chloroplast DNA were less than the nucleus DNA. Our results indicated that DNA methylation is associated with the gene silencing or gene activation in maize endosperm and embryo. Many genes involved in embryogenesis and seed development were found differentially methylated in embryo and endosperm. We found 17 endosperm-specific expressed imprinting genes were hypomethylated in endosperm and were hypermethylated in embryo. The expression of a maize DEMETER -like (DME-like) gene and MBD101 gene (MBD4 homolog) which direct bulk genome DNA demethylation were higher in endosperm than in embryo. These two genes may be associated with the distinct methylation level across maize embryo and endosperm.The methylomes of maize embryo and endosperm was obtained by MeDIP-seq method. The global mapping of maize embryo and endosperm methylation in this study broadened our knowledge of DNA methylation patterns in maize genome, and provided useful information for future studies on maize seed development and regulation of metabolic pathways in different seed tissues.

Project description:Transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) was used to profile genome-wide transcript abundance in the primary root growth zone (PRGZ) of maize seedlings grown in different water deficit treatments: well-watered (-0.02 MPa), mild water deficit stress (-0.3 MPa), or severe water deficit stress (-1.6 MPa). For each water deficit treatment, the PRGZ transcriptome was profiled at 26 hours after initiation of the water deficit treatment. By comparing the abundance of each transcript under mild or severe water deficit stress relative to its abundance under well-watered conditions, we identified transcripts that are differentially regulated in the PRGZ in response to the two levels of water deficit stress.

Project description:Previous work showed that the maize primary root adapts to low water potential (-1.6 MPa) by maintaining longitudinal expansion in the apical 3 mm (region 1), whereas in the adjacent 4 mm (region 2) longitudinal expansion reaches a maximum in well-watered roots but is progressively inhibited at low water potential. To identify mechanisms that determine these responses to low water potential, transcript expression was profiled in these regions of water-stressed and well-watered roots. In addition, comparison between region 2 of water-stressed roots and the zone of growth deceleration in well-watered roots (region 3) distinguished stress-responsive genes in region 2 from those involved in cell maturation. Responses of gene expression to water stress in regions 1 and 2 were largely distinct. The largest functional categories of differentially expressed transcripts were reactive oxygen species and carbon metabolism in region 1, and membrane transport in region 2. Transcripts controlling sucrose hydrolysis distinguished well-watered and water-stressed states (invertase vs. sucrose synthase), and changes in expression of transcripts for starch synthesis indicated further alteration in carbon metabolism under water deficit. A role for inositols in the stress response was suggested, as was control of proline metabolism. Increased expression of transcripts for wall-loosening proteins in region 1, and for elements of ABA and ethylene signaling were also indicated in the response to water deficit. The analysis indicates that fundamentally different signaling and metabolic response mechanisms are involved in the response to water stress in different regions of the maize primary root elongation zone.
