Project description:The function of the plant hormone jasmonic acid (JA) in development of tomato flowers was analyzed with a mutant defective in JA perception (jasmonate-insensitive1-1, jai1-1). In contrast to Arabidopsis JA-insensitive plants that are male sterile, the tomato mutant jai1-1 exhibits major defects in female development resulting in female sterility. To identify putative JA-dependent regulatory components, transcriptomics was performed using isolated ovules of three different stages of flower development, from both wild type and jai1-1. Among the strongly down-regulated genes in jai1-1, one encoding a MYB transcription factor (SlMYB21) was found. Its orthologue in Arabidopsis has a crucial role in JA-regulated stamen development. SlMYB21 showed transcription factor activity in yeast, interaction with SlJAZ9 in yeast and in planta, and complemented the Arabidopsis mutant myb21-5. To analyze SlMYB21 function in tomato ovule development, CRISPR/Cas9 mutants were created and a TILLING mutant was identified, all showing female sterility and therefore corroborating a function of MYB21 in tomato ovule development. Transcriptomics from wild type, jai1-1 and myb21-2 carpels revealed processes that might be controlled by SlMYB21. The data suggest a positive regulation of JA biosynthesis by SlMYB21, but a negative regulation of the action of auxin and GA. The results demonstrate that SlMYB21 mediates at least partially the action of JA and might control the flower to fruit transition.

Project description:Jasmonate (JA) is a plant hormone that controls trade-offs between plant growth and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. Although recent studies uncover core mechanism for JA-induced responses in Arabidopsis thaliana, it remains elusive how plants attenuate those responses. We report here that a basic-helix-loop-helix type transcription factor named JA-INDUCIBLE MYC2-LIKE1 (JAM1) acts as a transcriptional repressor and negatively regulates JA signaling. Arabidopsis plants expressing the chimeric repressor for JAM1 exhibited a substantial reduction of JA responses, including JA-induced inhibition of root growth, accumulation of anthocyanin, and male fertility. These plants were also compromised in resistance to attack by Spodoptera exigua. Conversely, jam1-4 loss-of-function mutants showed enhanced JA responsiveness, including increased resistance to the insect attack. Competitive binding of JAM1 and MYC2 to the target sequence of MYC2 suggested negative regulation of JA signaling by JAM1 and suppression of MYC2 function. These results indicate that JAM1 plays a pivotal role in fine-tuning of JA-mediated stress responses and plant growth by negatively regulating JA signaling. Transcriptomes of ProJAM1:JAM1-SRDX, ProMYC2:MYC2-SRDX and wild-type Arabidopsis seedlings with or without jasmonic acid were compared.

Project description:In Arabidopsis, jasmonate is required for stamen and pollen maturation. Mutants deficient in jasmonate synthesis, such as opr3, are male-sterile but become fertile when jasmonate is applied to developing flower buds. We have used ATH1 oligonucleotide arrays to follow gene expression in opr3 stamens for 22 hours following jasmonate treatment. In these experiments, a total of 821 genes were specifically induced by jasmonate and 480 repressed. Comparisons with data from previous studies indicate that these genes constitute a stamen-specific jasmonate transcriptome, with a large proportion (70%) of the genes expressed in the sporophytic tissue but not in the pollen. Bioinformatics tools allowed us to associate many of the induced genes with metabolic pathways that are likely up-regulated during jasmonate-induced maturation. Our pathway analysis led to the identification of specific genes within larger families of homologues that apparently encode stamen-specific isozymes. Extensive additional analysis of our dataset identified 13 transcription factors that may be key regulators of the stamen maturation processes triggered by jasmonate. Two of these transcription factors, MYB21 and MYB24, are the only members of subgroup 19 of the R2R3 family of MYB proteins. A myb21 mutant obtained by reverse genetics exhibited shorter anther filaments, delayed anther dehiscence and greatly reduced male fertility. A myb24 mutant was phenotypically wild type, but production of a myb21Â myb24 double mutant indicated that introduction of the myb24 mutation exacerbated all three aspects of the myb21 phenotype. Exogenous jasmonate could not restore fertility to myb21 or myb21Â myb24 mutant plants. Together with the data from transcriptional profiling, these results indicate that MYB21 and MYB24 are induced by jasmonate and mediate important aspects of the jasmonate response during stamen development. Experiment Overall Design: Three replicates for opr3 at each time point of 0 hour, 30 minutes, 2 hours, 8 hours and 22 hourss of either JA or OPDA treatment. One replicate of wild-type stamens. <br><br>Note that data files GSM106833.txt and GSM106907.txt as downloaded from GEO are identical.

Project description:JASMONATE-ZIM DOMAIN (JAZ) proteins are key regulators in the JA signaling pathway and function to repress the expression of JA-responsive genes. We found that JAZ proteins directly interact with several chromatin-associated Polycomb proteins to mediate repressive chromatin modifications at part of JA-responsive genes and thus their transcriptional repression in Arabidopsis.

Project description:To better understand the role of phenylpropanoid pathway perturbation in plant metabolism, Populus tremuloides cell cultures previously established from leaf mesophyll tissue were fed with methyl jasmonate, alpha-aminooxy-beta-phenylpropionic acid (AOPP), or both approximately 5 days after transfer to fresh medium. Methyl jasmonate is an elicitor that activates a suite of defense responses including phenylpropanoid metabolism. In contrast, AOPP acts as an inhibitor of phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL). Samples were harvested 48 hrs after initiation of the experiment. Total RNA was extracted and gene expression measured using Affymetrix poplar genome microarrays.

Project description:To better understand the role of phenylpropanoid pathway perturbation in plant metabolism, Populus tremuloides cell cultures previously established from leaf mesophyll tissue were fed with piperonylic acid (PIP) alone, or in combination with methyl jasmonate (MJ_PIP) approximately 5 days after transfer to fresh medium. Methyl jasmonate is an elicitor that activates a suite of defense responses including phenylpropanoid metabolism, while PIP acts as an inhibitor of cinnamate-4-hydroxylase (C4H). Sample tissues were contemporary with those used to generate Series GSE16773. Samples were harvested 48 hrs after initiation of the experiment. Total RNA was extracted and gene expression measured using Affymetrix poplar genome microarrays.
