Project description:The 5th and 6th leaf blades of the rice Os-LBD37 overexpressor line RK16331-13 and the empty vector control line FOX3 were examined. LBD37 belongs to the plant- specific LOB- (Lateral Organ Boundary) domain family proteins first characterized in Arabidopsis. Results point towards an involvement of the rice LBD37 (OsLBD37) ortholog of Arabidopsis in nitrogen metabolism- and senescence- related processes. Hygromycin- resistant rice Os-LBD37 overexpressor and empty vector control plants were grown in hydroponic culture system. The sampling date of the leaf blades of RK16331-13 LBD37 overexpressor plants and the empty vector control was determined according to the emergence of the 8th leaf blade. Three independent hybridizations were performed for line RK16331-13 and the empty vector control line.

Project description:Overexpression of OsMYB103L leads to leaf rolling in transgenic rice plants. To explore the possible molecular mechanism of OsMYB103L’s effects on rice leaf development, we examined the expression profiles of OsMYB103L overexpression transgenic rice plants and wild type leaf blades using Digital Gene Expression (DGE) profiling analysis.
Project description:Rice blast is one of the most serious diseases and is caused by Magnaporthe grisea. SHZ-2, an indica cultivar with broad spectrum resistance to multiple races of the blast pathogen, was crossed to TXZ-13, a blast susceptible but high-quality variety, to produce one BC3 line, BC10 line, which showed strong to moderate blast resistance over eight cropping seasons in the field. In this study, we compared the transcription between blast-resistant and -susceptive lines by custom microarray. Keywords: time course, blast infection, disease response
Project description:In this study, we examined the transcriptome dynamics within the matured fully expanded rice leaf and used strand-specific RNA sequencing to generate a comprehensive transcriptome dataset for the mature rice leaf. The rice Nipponbare (Oryza sativa l. japonica) seedlings were grown in the greenhouse. About 20 days after planting, the fully opened 4th leaves was cut it into seven 3-cm segments, from bottom to tip and labeled as sections 1 to 7, respectively. The tissues were immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen for total RNA extraction. Two biological replicates were collected for each section. Note: All samples in SRA were assigned the same sample accession (SRS685294). This is incorrect as there are different samples, hence âSource Nameâ was replaced with new values. Comment[ENA_SAMPLE] contains the original SRA sample accessions.
Project description:To reveal the underlying molecular mechanism of jasmonate inhibits gibberellins signaling in rice, we performed transcriptional profiling of wild type nipponbare and mutant coi1-13 plants on a global scale using the Affymetrix GeneChip Rice Genome Array
Project description:A biological phenomenon in which hybrids exhibit superior phenotypes from its parental inbred lines known as heterosis, has been widely exploited in plant breeding and extensively used in crop improvement. Hybrid rice has immense potential to increase yield over other rice varieties and hence is crucial in meeting increasing demand of rice globally. Moreover, the molecular basis of heterosis is still not fully understood and hence it becomes imperative to unravel its genetic and molecular basis. In this context, RNA sequencing technology (RNA-Seq) was employed to sequence transcriptomes of two rice hybrids, Ajay and Rajalaxmi, their parental lines, CRMS31A (sterile line, based on WA-CMS) and CRMS32A (sterile line based on Kalinga-CMS) respectively along with the common restorer line of both hybrids, IR-42266-29-3R at two critical rice developmental stages viz., panicle initiation (PI) and grain filling (GF). Identification of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) at PI and GF stages will further pave the way for understanding heterosis. In addition, such kind of study would help in better understanding of heterosis mechanism and genes up-regulated and down-regulated during the critical stages of rice development for higher yield.
Project description:Leaf rolling and discoloration are two chilling injury symptoms that are widely adopted as indicators for evaluation of cold tolerance at the seedling stage in rice, respectively. However, their relationship has not been well investigated, in particular the mechanism on how low temperature causes leaf rolling at a genome-wide level. In this study, a cold-tolerant japonica cultivar Lijiangxintuanheigu and a cold-sensitive indica cultivar Sanhuangzhan-2 were subjected to different low temperature treatments and physiological and genome-wide gene expression analysis were conducted. Our results showed that leaf rolling happened at temperatures lower than 11℃, but discoloration appeared at moderately low temperatures, such as 13℃. Chlorophyll contents of the two cultivars significantly decreased under 13℃, but didn’t change under 11℃. Contrastly, their relative water contents and the relative electrolyte leakages decreased significantly. Genome-wide gene expression profiling of LTH revealed that the calcium signaling related genes and the genes related to ABA degradation significantly changed under 11℃. Moreover, numerous genes in DREB, MYB, bZIP, NAC, Zin finger, bHLH, WRKY gene families were differently expressed. Furthermore, many aquaporin genes, the key genes in trehalose and starch synthesis were down-regulated under 11℃. These results suggest that the two chilling injury symptoms are controlled by different mechanisms. Cold-induced leaf rolling is associated with calcium and ABA signaling pathways, and subjected to regulation of multiple transcription regulators. The suppression of aquaporin genes and reduced accumulation of soluble sugars under cold stress result in reduction of water potential in cells and consequently, leaf rolling.
