SitkaSpruce_FB3-425_Bark_PissodesStrobi_Herbivory

ABSTRACT: Based on the generation of ESTs, we developed a spruce cDNA microarray composed of 21,843 cDNA elements selected from 12 cDNA libraries representing developmental stages of xylem, phloem, bark and roots, as well as elicitor-treated bark. Clones on the array were selected from a CAP3 assembly of 50,770 hq 3’ ESTs, and were carefully chosen to represent a minimally redundant gene set. Using this array we examined global changes in the transcriptome of Sitka spruce attacked for two days by stem-boring white pine weevils. Differentially expressed genes were determined using three criteria: fold-change between weevil-treated and untreated control > 1.5-fold, P value < 0.05 and Q value < 0.05. After 48 h of weevil feeding, 1,857 (8.5%) microarray elements identified transcripts as up-regulated, compared to 1,374 (6.3%) down-regulated. Keywords: Stress response

Interior Spruce_Bark_PissodesStrobi _Herbivory

Project description:We performed a transcriptome analysis of interior spruce (Picea glauca x engelmannii) bark response to weevil (Pissodes strobi) feeding using 21.8K spruce microarray (that contains 21.8 thousand unique transcripts). This microarray study revealed a large rearrangement of the interior spruce bark transcriptome in response to weevil feeding involving differential expression of close to 20% of the studied transcriptome. RNA was isolated from the bark of interior spruce exposed to weevil feeding and from the bark of untreated trees at three time points (6 hours, 2 days and 2 weeks). Four independent biological replicates were included for treatment and control at each time point. Four hybridizations were performed for treatment and control comparison within each time point (6 hours, 2 days, 2 weeks) and one hybridization was performed for each comparison between time points for both treatment and control (total 18 hybridizations/slides).

Transcriptome analysis of constitutive resistance to white pine weevil in Picea glauca-engelmannii (Interior spruce)

Project description:White pine weevil is a major pest of conifers in North America, especially for Spruce trees. Constitutive defenses are important in understanding defense mechanisms because they constitute the initial barrier to attacks by weevils and other pests. Resistant and susceptible trees exhibit constitutive differences in spruce. To improve our knowledge of their genetic basis, we compared the constitutive expression levels of 17,825 genes between 20 resistant and 20 susceptible trees in interior spruce (Picea glauca). Twenty hybridizations were performed to compare untreated bark of resistant and susceptible trees.RNA isolated from each of the 20 individual untreated resistant trees was compared directly against the 20 individual untreated susceptble trees using two hybridizations with a dye flip for each tree pair.

SitkaSpruce_FB3-425_Bark_UntreatedControl_SelfHybridization

Project description:As part of a larger conifer genomics project, we developed a new 21.8K cDNA microarray containing 21,843 spotted ESTs from spruce (Picea spp.). To evaluate the performance of the array we conducted four technical replicate self-self hybridizations using untreated control bark RNA pooled from four biological replicates. The objectives were to determine: 1) the linear dynamic range of expression detection of the array; 2) the level of non-specific hybridization to negative control elements on the array; and 3) the overall technical reproducibility of the array. Keywords: Array performance evaluation using self-self hybridizations.

Defense mechanisms against herbivory: expression regulation of spruce gene family members representative of the phenylpropanoid pathway

Project description:A 21.8k spruce EST-spotted microarray was utilized to examine the genetic basis of constitutive defenses against herbivory. From twelve-year-old trees originating from partial diallel pedigree that segregates for resistance against Pissodes strobi, bark tissue of apical leaders was harvested at the onset of seasonal growth and natural weevil activity in the field. Our experimental design is based on a priori known genotype. We identified cross 26 from ♀PG87*♂PG165, cross 27 from ♀PG87*♂PG117, cross 29 from ♀PG21*♂PG165 and cross 32 from ♀PG21*♂PG117, respectively, forming a factorial diallel which showed widest segregation, based on a higher number of segregating SNP loci with genotypes significantly different between the most extreme resistance categories. The distant pair design introduced by ({Fu, 2006}) was modified for outbreds and maximized direct comparisons between different alleles at each locus. Our design resulted in 94 hybridisations profiling 48 individuals in cross 26, 36 in cross 27, and 50 in cross 29 as well as 54 individuals in cross 32. One criterion for identifying positional candidate genes involved that any association between trait variation and genotype variation had to be detected within 10 cM map distances; positional candidate genes for the studied phenotypic trait were then identified by strong collocations of transcript abundance variation and overlap of at least 40% of their expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) with phenotypic trait QTLs. 10,000 randomizations were run (p < 0.05). The experimental design optimized genetic distances between probe pairs on 94 two-color microarrays to profile 188 interior spruce F1-hybrids, independently grown and harvested.

Interior spruce_Bark_Leptographium abietinum_inoculation

Project description:Using 21K spruce microarray (that contains 21.8 thousand unique transcripts) we performed analysis of the transcriptome response of interior spruce (Picea glauca x engelmannii) inoculated with the spruce beetle (Dendroctonus rufipennis) vectored blue stain fungal pathogen Leptographium abietinum or treated with wounding. This microarray analysis revealed large transcriptome reorganization with close to 2000 transcripts (10% of the studied transcriptome) differentially expressed within two weeks of treatment, with the wounding response affecting close to 5% of the interior spruce transcriptome. RNA was isolated from the bark of interior spruce inoculated with Leptographium abietinum, treated with wounding, or untreated control for three time points (6h, 2days and 2 weeks). Three independent biological replicates were included for each treatment and each time point. Three hybridizations were performed for each comparison of different treatments (fungal, wounding, control) within each time point (6 hours, 2 days, 2 weeks) and one hybridization was performed for the comparison of the same treatments between time points (total 36 hybridizations/slides).

Kiwifruit response to armoured scale insect feeding

Project description:The response of kiwifruit vine (Actinidia chinensis 'Hort16A') canes to feeding by the armoured scale insect Hemiberlesia lataniae was tested by screening RNA extracted from bark against a cDNA library of 17,512 unigenes. Substantial transcriptional changes were noted after 7 days for approximately 30% of the ESTs. Transcripts associated with photosynthesis were down-regulated and those associated with secondary metabolism up-regulated. A large number of transcripts orthologous with defence-related genes were differentially expressed including several orthologous with resistance and pathogenesis. This is the first such analysis of changes to transcript expression in a plant challenged by feeding by insects from the family diaspididae.

Analysis of transcription in the Drosophila melanogaster testis

Project description:Identification and annotation of all the genes in the sequenced Drosophila genome is a work in progress. Wild-type testis function requires many genes and is thus of potentially high value for the identification of transcription units. We therefore undertook a survey of the repertoire of genes expressed in the Drosophila testis by computational and microarray analysis. We generated 3141 high-quality testis expressed sequence tags (ESTs). Testis ESTs computationally collapsed into 1560 cDNA set used for further analysis. Of those, 11% correspond to named genes, and 33% provide biological evidence for a predicted gene. A surprising 47% fail to align with existing ESTs and 16% with predicted genes in the current genome release. EST frequency and microarray expression profiles indicate that the testis mRNA population is highly complex and shows an extended range of transcript abundance. Furthermore, >80% of the genes expressed in the testis showed onefold overexpression relative to ovaries, or gonadectomized flies. Additionally, >3% showed more than threefold overexpression at p <0.05. Surprisingly, 22% of the genes most highly overexpressed in testis match Drosophila genomic sequence, but not predicted genes. These data strongly support the idea that sequencing additional cDNA libraries from defined tissues, such as testis, will be important tools for refined annotation of the Drosophila genome. Additionally, these data suggest that the number of genes in Drosophila will significantly exceed the conservative estimate of 13,601. Keywords: other
