Project description:Abiotic stress is a major factor for crop productivity, a problem likely to be exacerbated by climate change. Improving the tolerance to environmental stress is one of the most important goals of crop breeding programmes. While the early responses to abiotic stress in plants are well studied, plant adaptation to enduring or recurring stress conditions has received little attention. This project investigates the molecular mechanism of the maintenance of acquired thermotolerance as a model case of stress memory in Arabidopsis. Arabidopsis seedlings acquire thermotolerance through a heat treatment at sublethal temperatures. To investigate the underlying mechanisms, we are investigating changes in the transcriptome at two timepoints after a heat acclimation treatment using Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings. Microarrays were used to compare gene expression at two timepoints after a heat acclimation treatment.

Project description:Plants and animals share similar mechanisms in the heat-shock (HS) response, such as synthesis of the conserved HS proteins (Hsps). However, because plants are confined to a growing environment, in general they require unique features to cope with heat stress. We have analyzed the function of a novel Hsp, heat-stress-associated 32-kD protein (Hsa32), which is highly conserved in land plants but absent in most other organisms. The gene responds to HS at the transcriptional level in moss, Arabidopsis, and rice. Like other Hsps, Hsa32 protein accumulates greatly in Arabidopsis seedlings after HS treatment. Disruption of Hsa32 by T-DNA insertion does not affect growth and development under normal conditions. However, the acquired thermotolerance in the knockout line was compromised following a long recovery period (> 24 h) after an acclimation HS treatment, when a severe HS challenge killed the mutant but not the wild-type plants, but no significant difference was observed if they were challenged within a short recovery period. Microarray analysis of the knockout mutant indicates that only the expression of Hsa32 was significantly altered in HS response. Taken together, our results suggest that Hsa32 is not required for the induction but maintenance of acquired thermotolerance. This report provides direct evidence that a plant-specific Hsp plays an important role in thermotolerance. Keywords: heat shock response

Project description:Anoxia induces several heat shock proteins and a heat pre-treatment can acclimatize Arabidopsis seedlings to a subsequent anoxic treatment. In this work we analyzed the response of Arabidopsis seedlings to anoxia, heat and a combined heat+anoxia stress. A significant overlapping between the anoxic and heat shock responses has been observed by whole-genome microarray analysis.

Project description:The expression of heat-shock proteins (Hsps) induced by a non-lethal heat treatment confers acquired thermotolerance (AT) to organisms against a subsequent challenge of otherwise lethal temperature. After stress signal lifted, AT gradually decayed with the decline of Hsps during recovery period. The duration of AT may be critical for sessile organisms, such as plants, to survive repeated heat stress in the environment. To identify heat-induced genes involved in duration of AT, we took a reverse-genetics approach by screening for Arabidopsis T-DNA insertion mutants that show decreased thermotolerance after a long recovery at non-stress condition following a conditioning treatment. Among the tested mutants corresponding to 47 genes, only the HsfA2 knockout mutant showed significant phenotype. The mutant plants were more sensitive to severe heat stress than the wild type after long but not short recovery following a pretreatment at 37oC, which can be complemented by introducing a wild-type copy of the gene. Quantitative hypocotyl elongation assay also revealed that AT decayed faster in the absence of HsfA2. Significant decline of the transcript levels of several highly heat-induced genes was observed in the HsfA2 knockout plants after a 4-h recovery or after 2 h of prolonged heat stress. Immunoblot anlysis showed that Hsa32 and class I small Hsp were lower in the mutant than in the wild type after a long recovery. Our results suggest that HsfA2 as a heat-induced transactivator sustains the post-stress expression of Hsp genes and extends the duration of AT in Arabidopsis. Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA was isolated from the seedlings of 5-d old wild-type and HsfA2 knockout mutant seedlings (a pool of about 100 plants per treatment in duplicates) harvested immediately after heat shock treatment. In this experiment, total 12 chips were used, 1 each for 2 biological replicates of the control and HS-treated samples for the wild type and mutant plants.

Project description:Heat stress is the primary obstacle for landscape application of azalea in hot-summer areas. Heat acclimation can confer acquired thermotolerance to R. hainanense even after a long recovery. The mechanisms and key factors involved in the heat acclimation memory were investigated.

Project description:Several lipocalin genes from higher plants were shown to be responsive to both high and low temperature stresses and have been named as temperature-induced lipocalin (Til). In this study, a reverse genetic approach was taken to elucidate the role of Arabidopsis Til1 (At5g58070) in thermotolerance. We showed that Til1 proteins was constitutively expressed and increased significantly after heat shock treatment. A T-DNA knockout line of Til1, designated as til1-1, could not produce Til1 and showed severe defects in basal and acquired thermotolerance. Introducing a wild type copy of Til1 gene into til1-1 complemented the mutant phenotype. Over-expression of Til1 in the wild type plant did not enhance thermotolerance. Til1 is peripherally associated with plasma membrane, suggesting a regulatory or protective role of this protein in membrane function. Transcriptomic analysis showed that the heat shock response in til1-1 was not altered as compared to the wild type plants. The temperature threshold for heat shock protein induction was not affected by the level of Til1. Ion leakage analysis revealed no significant difference in membrane stability between the wild type and til1-1 seedlings. These results suggested that Til1 is not involved in regulating membrane fluidity or stability. Nevertheless, the level of malondialdehyde was significantly higher in til1-1 than in the wild type after severe heat treatment. The mutant plants were also more sensitive than the wild type to tert-butyl hydroperoxide, a reagent that induces lipid peroxidation. Taken together, our data indicate that Til1 is an essential component for thermotolerance probably by acting against lipid peroxidation induced by severe heat stress. Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA was isolated from the seedlings of 7-d old wild-type and til1-1 mutant seedlings (a pool of about 100 plants per treatment in duplicates) harvested immediately after heat shock treatment. In this experiment, total 8 chips were used, 1 each for 2 biological replicates of the control and HS-treated samples for the wild type and mutant plants.

Project description:Global analysis of brassinosteroid (BR)-mediated gene expression under abiotic stress identifies BR associated mechanisms of stress tolerance, and new stress-related genes We used the Arabidopsis Affymetrix ATH1 array to analyze gene expression in a synthetic BR, 24-epibrassinolide (EBR)-treated and untreated Arabidopsis seedlings before, during and after heat stress (HS) treatment. Microarray expression profiles were generated from EBR-treated (E; 1 µM EBR for 21 days) and untreated (C; 0.01% ethanol for 21 days) Arabidopsis seedlings under no-stress (0 h), HS (1 h and 3 h) at 43°C conditions. Additionally, a recovery for 6 h (6 hR) at 22°C after exposure to 3h HS at 43°C was also included

Project description:Biotic and abiotic stresses limit agricultural yields, and plants are often simultaneously exposed to multiple stresses. Combinations of stresses such as heat and drought or cold and high light intensity, have profound effects on crop performance and yeilds To analyze such responses, we initially compared transcriptome changes in ten Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes using cold, heat, high light, salt and flagellin treatments as single stress factors or their double combinations. Arabidopsis thaliana plants of ecotypes (Col, Ler, C24, Cvi, Kas1, An1, Sha, Kyo2, Eri and Kond) were subjected to the following stress treatments: Salt, Cold, Heat, High Light (HL), Salt+Heat, Salt+HL, Cold+HL, Heat+HL, as well as FLG (Flagellin, flg22 peptide), Cold+FLG, Heat+FLG
