Root proteome alterations of sugarcane cultivar RB966928 promoted by regrowth cycle in commercial production

ABSTRACT: Decrease in agricultural productivity in successive cuttings of sugarcane plants has been related to several extrinsic and intrinsic factors, even though no studies have been recently conducted to assess the physiological potential of sett roots in successive cuts in sugarcane culture. Proteomic studies on sugarcane sett roots at different cut stages are unknown. The UPLC-ESI-TOF-MS system and bioinformatics tools were used to identify proteins of sett roots in the first and fifth cuts of sugarcane cultivar RB966928 in the sprouting stage. The differences in proteome of sett roots from sugarcane cv. RB966928 in the first and fifth cut detected in current study support the hypothesis that the proteome of sett roots may change after successive cuts in sugarcane culture. A reduction in the number of proteins has been observed in the roots of the fifth cut, while 34% of proteins, identified exclusively in the first cut, were absent in the fifth one. Proteome analysis of sett roots in the first and fifth cut showed that the changes after successive cuts are not only quantitative, but mainly qualitative. The detailed list of proteins identified in the first cut but absent in the fifth cut reported in the present study is relevant since it opens a perspective for the lines of research that employ biotic or abiotic elicitors to induce gene expression for essential proteins absents in sett roots of the fifth cut, increasing the agricultural productivity and longevity of cane fields.

Project description:Sugarcane accumulates high concentrations of sucrose in the mature stalk, with numerous physiological processes in maturing stalk tissue both directly and indirectly involved. A considerable portion of carbohydrate metabolism is also devoted to cell wall synthesis and fibre production. Previously, we have identified differentially expressed transcripts correlated with sucrose accumulation and fibre production in various internodes of the sugarcane stalk. In this study, we have examined tissue-specific expression patterns to further explore gene pathways responsible for sucrose accumulation and fibre synthesis. We performed large-scale expression profiling of storage parenchyma, vascular bundles and rind dissected from a maturing stalk internode from field-grown commercial sugarcane harvested at 11 months of age. We identified 10 cellulose synthase subunit genes in sugarcane and examined significant differences in the expression of their corresponding transcripts and those of several sugar transporters between the different tissues. These were further correlated with differential expression patterns for transcripts of specific COBRA-like proteins and other proteins with acknowledged roles in cell wall metabolism. We found that the sugar transporters ShPST2a, ShPST2b and ShSUT4 were significantly up-regulated in storage parenchyma while ShSUT1 was up-regulated in vascular bundles. Two co-ordinately expressed groups of cell wall related transcripts were also identified. One group which is associated with primary cell wall synthesis (ShCesA1, ShCesA7, ShCesA9 and Shbk2l3) was up-regulated in parenchyma. The other group which is associated with secondary cell wall synthesis (ShCesA10, ShCesA11, ShCesA12 and Shbk-2) was up-regulated in rind. We also report an unexpected paucity in differential expression of cell wall-related genes in vascular bundles. Our results indicate that there is spatial separation for elevated expression of these important targets in both sucrose accumulation and cell wall synthesis, allowing for increased clarity in our understanding of sucrose transport and fibre synthesis in sugarcane.
