Rootstock grafting can improve the cold tolerance of watermelon. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this process remain unknown. Herein, we used an isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ)-based quantitative proteomics approach for the comparative analysis of protein abundances in self-grafted (SG) and pumpkin rootstock-grafted (RG) watermelon seedlings in response to cold stress. A total of 4796 distinct proteins were identified, and 752 proteins were significantl ...[more]

Project description:To understand the gene network that controls plant tolerance to cold stress, we carried out a near full genome transcript expression profiling in Arabidopsis using Affymetrix GeneChips that contain approximately 24,000 genes. For microarray analysis, Arabidopsis seedlings were cold treated at 0 C for 0 h, 3 h, 6 h, and 24 h. A total of 939 genes were statistically determined to be cold-regulated with 655 being up-regulated and 284 down-regulated. A large number of the early cold-responsive genes encode transcription factors that likely control late-responsive genes, which implies a multitude of transcriptional cascades. In addition, many genes involved in post-transcriptional and chromatin level regulation were also cold regulated suggesting their involvement in cold responsive gene regulation. A number of genes important for the biosynthesis or signaling of plant hormones, such as abscisic acid, gibberellic acid and auxin, are regulated by cold stress, which is of potential importance in coordinating cold tolerance with growth and development. We compared the cold-responsive transcriptomes of wild type and ice1, a mutant defective in an upstream transcription factor required for chilling and freezing tolerance. The transcript levels of many cold-responsive genes were altered in the ice1 mutant not only during cold stress conditions, but also before cold treatments. Our study provides a global picture of the Arabidopsis cold-responsive transcriptome and its control by ICE1, and thus will be valuable for understanding gene regulation under cold stress and the molecular mechanisms of cold tolerance.

Project description:Recently, intensive global climate change has become a major factor impacting plant survival during the winter. Freezing cold temperatures during the winter and abnormal temperature fluctuations during the winter and early spring are the most harmful ambient factors threatening tea plant winter survival and currently cause marked economic losses in tea production. In this study, by simulating natural climate change, we established cold acclimation (CA) and rapid cold stress (after CA) conditions to comprehensively investigate the transcriptome changes involved in CA and rapid cold stress. Electrolyte leakage (EL) rate and expression profile clustering analyses confirmed that the experimental design was valid. Comparative transcription analysis identified many differentially expressed genes (DEGs) involved in both processes. Time course and pathway enrichment analyses further revealed the physiological changes that occur during the initial period of CA and the cell wall changes that occur throughout the entire CA process; these changes play crucial roles in increasing freezing tolerance during this process. Compared with CA, different cold response mechanisms were rapidly activated under cold stress; however, the subsequent accumulation of reactive oxygen species, which affect multiple aspects, caused by freezing cold could be the harshest factor impairing tea leaves. Moreover, we investigated 60 DEGs shared by both processes and highlighted the importance of KCSs, HXXXD-type acyl-transferase family proteins, NAC080, SWEETs and ENOs in the responses to various cold conditions. These results greatly improve our knowledge of cold response mechanisms in tea plants and provide meaningful information for functional studies investigating cold tolerance-related genes.

Project description:In the field, abiotic stresses are rarely applied individually. Crops are often subjected to a combination of stresses. To date, no study has been performed on the proteomic investigation of the response of common wheat to a combination of drought and cold stresses. In this study, wheat seedlings exposed to drought-cold stress for 24 h showed inhibited growth, increased lipid peroxidation, relative electrolyte leakage, and soluble sugar contents. To determine the wheat protein response to drought-cold stress, iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomic and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) methods were employed to determine the proteomic profiles of the roots and leaves of wheat seedlings exposed to drought-cold stress conditions. We identified 250 and 258 proteins with significantly altered abundance in the roots and leaves, respectively. These proteins were classified into several main groups, as follows: protein metabolism, stress/defense, carbohydrate metabolism, lipid metabolism, transcription-related processes, energy production, cell-wall and cytoskeleton metabolism, membrane and transportation, signal transduction, other metabolic processes, and unknown biological processes. Nine proteins were simultaneously presented in both roots and leaves exposed to drought-cold stress, and the majority of proteins identified differed from one another and displayed differently altered abundance. These findings uncovered organ-specific differences in adaptation to drought-cold stress. Exogenous abscisic acid (ABA) application conferred the plant with protection against drought-cold stress and significantly increased catalase and peroxidase enzyme activities, as well as the transcription of glutathione S-transferase and other 11 sample genes in the roots or leaves, respectively. These results suggested that ABA is a potentially vital factor that contributes to the drought-cold signaling pathway and a promising target for growth recovery. Furthermore, VIGS (virus-induced gene silencing)-treated plants generated for three candidate protein genes TaGRP2, CDCP and WCOR410c were subjected to drought-cold limitation, they showed more serious droop and wilt, increased rate of relative electrolyte leakage, and reduced relative water content (RWC) compared to viral control plants. These results may indicate that TaGRP2, CDCP and WCOR410c play important roles in conferring drought-cold tolerance in wheat. These findings can provide useful insights into the molecular mechanisms of drought-cold responses in higher plants.

Project description:Background: Rice grain production is susceptible to a changing environment that imposes both biotic and abiotic stress conditions. Cold episodes are becoming more frequent in the last years and directly affect rice yield in areas with a temperate climate. Rice is particularly susceptible to cold stress during the reproductive phase, especially in anthers during post-meiotic stages which, in turn, affect pollen production. However, a number of rice cultivars with a certain degree of tolerance to cold have been described, which may represent a good breeding resource for improvement of susceptible commercial varieties. Plants experiencing cold stress activate a molecular response in order to reprogram many metabolic pathways to face these hostile conditions. Results: Here we performed RNA-seq analysis using cold-stressed post-meiotic anther samples from a cold-tolerant, Erythroceros Hokkaido (ERY), and a cold-susceptible commercial cultivar Sant´Andrea (S.AND). Both cultivars displayed an early common molecular response to cold, although the changes in expression levels are much more drastic in the tolerant one. Comparing our datasets, obtained after one-night cold stress, with other similar genome-wide studies showed very few common deregulated genes, leading to the conclusion that molecular responses in cold-stressed anthers strongly depend on conditions and the duration of the cold treatments. Cold-tolerant ERY exhibits specific molecular responses related to ethylene metabolism, which appears to be activated after cold stress. On the other hand, S.AND cold-treated plants showed a general downregulation of photosystem I and II genes, supporting a role of photosynthesis and chloroplasts in cold responses in anthers, which has remained elusive. Conclusions: Our study revealed that a number of ethylene-related transcription factors, as putative master regulators of cold responses, were upregulated in ERY providing promising candidates to confer tolerance to susceptible cultivars. Our results also suggest that the photosynthesis machinery might be a good target to improve cold tolerance in anthers. In summary, our study provides valuable candidates for further analysis and molecular breeding for cold-tolerant rice cultivars.

Project description:Different modalities are employed to remove small colonic polyps which potentially harbour a cancer risk. But, they can all vary in their completeness of removal, safety and the histological quality and the gold standard technique has yet to be defined. A novel suction pseudopolyp technique has been described by Patullo et al and in their prospective study, 126 polyps measuring less than 10mm flat or sessile were removed by this method with 100% complete endoscopic resection and without any immediate or delayed complications. The aim of the investigators study is to compare this technique with the standard cold snare technique. Patients attending for a routine colonoscopy and found to have polyps measuring 37mm in size will be eligible and they will be randomised to the polypectomy technique. Patient demographics and polyp characteristics will be recorded. The primary outcome measured will be the macroscopic resection rate. The secondary outcome measures are abdominal pain, tenderness, bleeding and fever.

Project description:Cell water permeability and cell wall properties are critical to survival of plant cells during freezing, however the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we report that a specifically cold-induced nuclear protein, Tolerant to Chilling and Freezing 1 (TCF1), interacts with histones H3 and H4, and associates with chromatin containing a target gene, BLUE-COPPER-BINDING PROTEIN (BCB), encoding a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein that regulates lignin biosynthesis. Loss of TCF1 function leads to reduced BCB transcription through affecting H3K4me2 and H3K27me3 levels within the BCB gene, resulting in reduced lignin content and enhanced freezing tolerance. Furthermore, plants with knocked-down BCB expression (amiRNA-BCB) under cold acclimation had reduced lignin accumulation, and increased freezing tolerance. The pal1pal2 double mutant (lignin content reduced by 30% compared with WT) also showed the freezing tolerant phenotype, and TCF1 and BCB act upstream of PALs to regulate lignin content. In addition, TCF1 acts independently of the CBF (C-repeat binding factor) pathway. Our findings delineate a novel molecular pathway linking the TCF1-mediated cold-specific transcriptional program to lignin biosynthesis, thus achieving cell wall remodeling with increased water permeability and consequent freezing tolerance. Total RNA of three week old Arabidopsis seedlings was extracted using the TRIZOL Reagent according to the manufacturer's instructions. Gene-expression profiling was performed for each pooling RNA sample separately on the GeneChip at CapitalBio Corporation (Beijing, China).
