Project description:Chlorothalonil (2,4,5,6-tetrachloroisophthalonitrile) is a broad spectrum fungicide used extensively in agricultural crops . The aim of this study is to analyse the effects of Chorothalonil on the gene expression profiles in zebrafish (Danio rerio), exposed to two concentrations of the fungicide in the water. Nominal concentrations were 1) Low 0.007mg/l (environmentally relevent) and 2) High 0.035mg/ml . A commercial third generation microarray for Danio rerio (Agielnt V3, 4x44k) was used to identify patterns of gene expression in male livers during a 96h toxicological assay. Replicates: Six control, five low and four high concentrations ; 15 samples examined. Expression profiles of male livers compared. Two concentrations of the fungicide chlorothalonil were compared.

Project description:Resistance to agricultural fungicides in the field has created a need for discovering fungicides with new modes of action. DNA microarrays, because they provide information on expression of many genes simultaneously, could help to identify the modes of action. To begin an expression pattern database for agricultural fungicides, transcriptional patterns of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain S288C genes were analysed following 2-h treatments with I50 concentrations of ergosterol biosynthesis inhibitors commonly used against plant pathogenic fungi. Eight fungicides, representing three classes of ergosterol biosynthesis inhibitors, were tested. To compare gene expression in response to a fungicide with a completely different mode of action, a putative methionine biosynthesis inhibitor (MBI) was also tested. Expression patterns of ergosterol biosynthetic genes supported the roles of Class I and Class II inhibitors in affecting ergosterol biosynthesis, confirmed that the putative MBI did not affect ergosterol biosynthesis, and strongly suggested that in yeast, the Class III inhibitor did not affect ergosterol biosynthesis. The MBI affected transcription of three genes involved in methionine metabolism, whereas there were essentially no effects of ergosterol synthesis inhibitors on methionine metabolism genes. There were no consistent patterns in other up- or downregulated genes between fungicides. These results suggest that inspection of gene response patterns within a given pathway may serve as a useful first step in identifying possible modes of action of fungicides. agricultural sterol biosynthesis inhibitor fungicides.

Project description:Plants in their natural and agricultural environments are continuously exposed to a plethora of diverse microorganisms resulting in microbial colonization of plants in the rhizosphere. This process is believed to be accompanied by an intricate network of ongoing simultaneous interactions. In this study, we compared transcriptional patterns of Arabidopsis thaliana roots and shoots in the presence and absence of whole microbial communities extracted from compost soil. The results show a clear growth promoting effect of Arabidopsis shoots in the presence of soil microbes compared to axenically grown plants under identical conditions. Element analyses showed that iron uptake was facilitated by these mixed microbial communities which also lead to transcriptional downregulation of genes required for iron transport. In addition, soil microbial communities suppressed the expression of marker genes involved in oxidative stress/redox signalling, cell wall modification and plant defense. While most previous studies have focussed on individual plant-microbe interactions, our data suggest that multi-species transcriptional profiling, using simultaneous plant and metatranscriptomics coupled to metagenomics may be required to further increase our understanding of the intricate networks underlying plant-microbe interactions in their diverse environments. Four samples were analysed in total. One corresponded to a pooled sample of RNA extracted from root tissues of 60 plants. The other three were biological replicates from shoot tissues, each of which contained 20 plants. Controls were used as reference and corresponded to tissues of plants grown in sterile conditions.

Project description:Previously the agricultural fungicide vinclozolin was found to promote the transgenerational inheritance of sperm differential DNA methylation regions (DMRs) termed epimutations that help mediate this epigenetic inheritance. The current study was designed to investigate the developmental origins of the transgenerational DMRs during gametogenesis. Male control and vinclozolin lineage F3 generation rats were used as a source of embryonic day 13 (E13) primordial germ cells. The DMRs between the control versus vinclozolin lineage samples were determined for this stage.

Project description:Plant roots secrete secondary metabolites to sense the enviroment around them. Among them, terpenes play a prominent role. Terpenes can have either fungistatic or fungicide action. However, their exact role in plant-host interactions is not fully understood. Verticillium longisporum is a soilborne pathogen causing disease in Brasicacae plants. In this project we investigated the transcriptomic changes of this species upon exposure to the β-pinene monoterpene in different time points 0hpi, 8hpi, 24hpi and 24hpi.

Project description:Gut microbiome research is rapidly moving towards the functional characterization of the microbiota by means of shotgun meta-omics. Here, we selected a cohort of healthy subjects from an indigenous and monitored Sardinian population to analyze their gut microbiota using both shotgun metagenomics and shotgun metaproteomics. We found a considerable divergence between genetic potential and functional activity of the human healthy gut microbiota, in spite of a quite comparable taxonomic structure revealed by the two approaches. Investigation of inter-individual variability of taxonomic features revealed Bacteroides and Akkermansia as remarkably conserved and variable in abundance within the population, respectively. Firmicutes-driven butyrogenesis (mainly due to Faecalibacterium spp.) was shown to be the functional activity with the higher expression rate and the lower inter-individual variability in the study cohort, highlighting the key importance of the biosynthesis of this microbial by-product for the gut homeostasis. The taxon-specific contribution to functional activities and metabolic tasks was also examined, giving insights into the peculiar role of several gut microbiota members in carbohydrate metabolism (including polysaccharide degradation, glycan transport, glycolysis and short-chain fatty acid production). In conclusion, our results provide useful indications regarding the main functions actively exerted by the gut microbiota members of a healthy human cohort, and support metaproteomics as a valuable approach to investigate the functional role of the gut microbiota in health and disease.
