Project description:Drought-responsive genes were identified in leaf tissues of the cotton Acala 15-1799, a cotton genotype derived in the Southwest USA. Most of the identified genes such as the heat shock proteins have been described as responsive to drought and heat in other plant species. Microarray analysis was used to identify drought-responsive genes that might confer this cotton genotype with an improved tolerance to drought stress. Leaves from cotton plants watered or exposed to drought stress were used for RNA extraction and generarion of cRNA probes for hybridization of Affymetrix microarrays. Microarray technology was used to identify drought-responsive genes in cotton to assist in molecular breeding program. The supplementary file 'GSE18253_differentially_expressed.txt' lists the differentially expressed genes.

Project description:Since the roots of grapevine rootstocks have a direct contact with drying soil and has an important role in abiotic stimuli, any plasticity on the architecture of the rootstocks would enable grapevine varieties to a better respond to drought stress. However, genomics evidences behind the physiological responses of rootstocks under prolonged drought stress are poorly documented in the literature. In the current study, eight widely used hybrid grapevine rootstocks in viticulture were firstly grafted with sultana seedless and subjected to drought stress to test their physiological and biochemical responses. The results of experiment indicated that the roots of V.rupestris X V.berlandieri (110 R, 1103P, 140 Ru) rootstocks possessed much higher water content as well as non-structural carbohydrate and nitrogen concentrations compared to V.riparia X V.berlandieri (SO4, 5BB, 420A, 8B) and V.vinifera X V.berlandieri (41B) hybrids under drought. V.rupestris X V.berlandieri hybrids were also performed much higher root elongation performance under drought compared to other rootstock hybrids. Three rootstock varieties (110R, 5BB and 41B) having different pedigrees and root architectural responses to drought were also investigated at transcriptome level to find out gene regulation network behind differential physiological responses to drought. Transcriptome analysis revealed 2795, 1196 and 1612 differentially expressed transcripts for the roots of 110R, 5BB and 41B, respectively. The highest expression increases in 110R compared to other rootstocks were recorded for the transcripts functional in carbohydrate (SWEET14, CWINV) and nitrate/peptide (NRT1/ PTR FAMILY) transportation as well as osmoregulation (dehydrins, osmotins, LEAs and proline-glycine rich proteins) during drought. Higher induction of these genes in the roots of tolerant 110R genotype indicated importance of efficient uptake of carbohydrate and nitrogen source released from canopy under drought and preservation of water with osmotic regulation on the root elongation and drought tolerance of grapevines. Expression increases in several other pathogenesis related proteins, regulation of cell wall modification enzymes and activity of several secondary metabolites have been also associated to altered root architecture and drought tolerance in the grapevine rootstocks for the first time with the current study.

Project description:Drought is one of the major constraints for crop productivity across the globe. Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is mainly cultivated in the arid and semi-arid tropical regions under rain-fed conditions and drought stress is one of the major constraints, which causes up to 50% yield losses annually. In this study, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics datasets from root tissues of contrasting drought responsive chickpea genotypes, ICC 4958 (drought-tolerant), JG 11 (drought-tolerant); an introgression line, JG 11+ (drought-tolerant) and ICC 1882, (drought-sensitive) under control and stress conditions were generated. The integrated analysis of these multi-omics data revealed complex molecular mechanism underlying drought stress response in chickpea. Transcriptomics integrated with proteomics data identified enhancement of hub proteins encoding isoflavone 4’-O-methyltransferase (Ca_06356), UDP-D-glucose/UDP-D-Galactose 4-epimerase (Ca_15037) and delta-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthesis (Ca_24241). These proteins highlighted the involvement of critical pathways such as antibiotic biosynthesis, galactose metabolism and isoflavonoid biosynthesis in activating drought stress response mechanism. Subsequently, integration of metabolomics data identified six key metabolites (fructose, galactose, glucose, myo-inositol, galactinol and raffinose) that showed enhanced correlation with galactose metabolism. Further, integration of root -omics data together with genomic dataset of the “QTL-hotspot” region harbouring several drought tolerance related traits revealed involvement of candidate genes encoding aldo keto reductase family oxidoreductase (Ca_04551) and leucine rich repeat extensin 2 (Ca_04564). These results from integrated multi-omics approach provided a comprehensive understanding and new insights into the drought stress response mechanism of chickpea.

Project description:Drought tolerance is a key trait for increasing and stabilizing barley productivity in dry areas worldwide. Identification of the genes responsible for drought tolerance in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) will facilitate understanding of the molecular mechanisms of drought tolerance, and also genetic improvement of barley through marker-assisted selection or gene transformation. To monitor the changes in gene expression at transcription levels in barley leaves during the reproductive stage under drought conditions, the 22K Affymetrix Barley 1 microarray was used to screen two drought-tolerant barley genotypes, Martin and Hordeum spontaneum 41-1 (HS41-1), and one drought-sensitive genotype Moroc9-75. Seventeen genes were expressed exclusively in the two drought-tolerant genotypes under drought stress, and their encoded proteins may play significant roles in enhancing drought tolerance through controlling stomatal closure via carbon metabolism (NADP malic enzyme (NADP-ME) and pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH), synthesizing the osmoprotectant glycine-betaine (C-4 sterol methyl oxidase (CSMO), generating protectants against reactive-oxygen-species scavenging (aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), ascorbate-dependant oxidoreductase (ADOR), and stabilizing membranes and proteins (heat-shock protein 17.8 (HSP17.8) and dehydrin 3 (DHN3). Moreover, 17 genes were abundantly expressed in Martin and HS41-1 compared with Moroc9-75 under both drought and control conditions. These genes were likely constitutively expressed in drought-tolerant genotypes. Among them, 7 known annotated genes might enhance drought tolerance through signaling (such as calcium-dependent protein kinase (CDPK) and membrane steroid binding protein (MSBP), anti-senescence (G2 pea dark accumulated protein GDA2) and detoxification (glutathione S-transferase (GST) pathways. In addition, 18 genes, including those encoding Δl-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase (P5CS), protein phosphatase 2C-like protein (PP2C) and several chaperones, were differentially expressed in all genotypes under drought; thus, they were more likely general drought-responsive genes in barley. These results could provide new insights into further understanding of drought-tolerance mechanisms in barley.

Project description:Episodic drought stress negatively impacts the health of long-lived trees. Understanding the genetic and molecular mechanisms that underpin response to drought stress is requisite for selecting or enhancing climate change resilience. Here we aim to establish standardized drought stress protocols for transcriptome studies in poplar trees, to determine how hybrid poplars respond to prolonged and uniform exposure to drought; to determine if the responses to moderate and more severe growth-limiting drought stresses were qualitatively or quantitatively different; and, to determine how response to drought changes throughout the day. We established hybrid poplar trees (Populus x ’Okanese’) from unrooted stem cutting with abundant soil moisture for six weeks. We then withheld water to establish three soil water contents reflecting well-watered, moderate, and severe growth-limiting drought conditions. Plants were rewatered as needed for three weeks to maintain the soil water conditions. The mild and severe drought treatments elicited distinct changes in growth and development, photosynthetic rates and global transcriptomic changes. Notably, the time of day of sampling was strongest signal in the transcriptome data and it quantitatively and qualitatively affected drought responsive changes in gene expression. These analyses emphasize the complex nature of drought regulation in long-lived trees.

Project description:Drought is one of the most important environmental fluctuations affecting tree growth and survival. Therefore, understanding of physiological and transcriptomic responses of trees to this stress factor will make important contributions to forest health and productivity. Here, we report comparative physiological and microarray based transcriptome analysis between drought resistant (N.62.191) and drought-sensitive (N.03.368.A) black poplar genotypes under well-watered (WWP), moderate drought (MD), severe drought (SD) and post drought re-watering (PDR) conditions. In the study, sensitive genotype exhibited a drought escape strategy with lower leaf water potential, higher reactive oxygen production, complete leaf abscission and subsequent terminal shoot necrosis under drought stress. On the other hand, resistant genotype had a dehydration tolerance indicating highly delayed leaf abscission under drought and fast growing capacity during re-watering conditions. Gene ontology enrichment analysis attributed drought susceptibility of black poplar to significant up-regulation of genes functional in transcription regulation (AP2/ERF, NAC and WRKY), cell wall modification (Expansins), fatty acid metabolism (enoyl-ACP reductase, lipid transport protein particle), protein degradation (endopeptidases), ethylene synthesis (1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate) and riboflavin synthesis (GTP cyclohydrolase II) under drought stress. Transcriptomic comparison indicated significant down-regulation of photosynthesis, electron transport and carbohydrate metabolism related genes under drought stress in sensitive genotype. Although, similar reduction in carbohydrate metabolism was also recorded for resistant genotype, genes related with photosynthesis and electron transport systems were not down regulated even under SD for this genotype. Resistant genotype specific up-regulation of small heat shock proteins (sHSP) and bark storage proteins revealed importance of protein protection and nitrogen remobilization under drought stress, respectively. This is the first study associating BSP production to delayed leaf abscission and drought tolerance in trees.

Project description:Genome-wide Transcriptional Analysis of Genes Associated with Drought Stress in Gossypium herbaceum root This experiment was designed to investigate the molecular mechanism associated with drought tolerance in root tissue of Gossypium herbaceum. The gene expression profiles of the root tissue using Affymetrix Cotton Genome Array were compared with drought tolerant and drought sensitive genotype of G.herbaceum under drought stress and watered condition. Many genes in various molecular function or biological processes were over- or under-represented between drought tolerant and sensitive genotype, suggesting various molecular mechanism and biochemical pathways are interlinked and tolerant genotype have developed multiple mechanisms as an adaptory behavior against drought stress.

Project description:Background: Drought stress is the major environmental stress that affects plant growth and productivity. It triggers in plants a wide range of responses detectable at different scales: molecular, biochemical and physiological levels. At the molecular level the response to drought stress results in the differential expression of several metabolic pathways. For this reason, explore the subtle differences existing in gene expression of drought sensitive and drought tolerant genotypes allows to identify drought-related genes that could be used for selection of drought tolerance traits. Genome-wide RNA-Seq technology was used to compare the drought response of two sorghum genotypes characterized by contrasting water use efficiency. Results: the physiological measurements carried out confirmed the drought sensitivity of IS20351 and the drought tolerance of IS22330 previously studied. The expression of drought-related genes was more abundant in the sensitive genotype IS20351 compared to the tolerant IS22330. The Gene Ontology enrichment highlighted a massive increase in transcript abundance in “response to stress” and “abiotic stimulus”, “oxidation-reduction reaction” in the sensitive genotype IS20351 under drought stress. “Antioxidant” and “secondary metabolism”, “photosynthesis and carbon fixation process”, “lipids” and “carbon metabolism” were the pathways most affected by drought in the sensitive genotype IS20351. The sensitive genotype IS20351 showed under well-watered conditions a lower constitutive expression level of “secondary metabolic process” (GO:0019748) and “glutathione transferase activity” (GO:000004364). Conclusions: RNA-Seq analysis revealed to be a very useful tool to explore differences between sensitive and tolerant sorghum genotypes. The transcriptomic results supported all the physiological measurements and were crucial to clarify the tolerance of the two genotypes studied. The connection between the differential gene expression and the physiological response to drought states unequivocally the drought tolerance of the genotype IS22330 and the strategy adopted to cope with drought stress.
