Project description:RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) in plants is a well-characterized example of RNA interference-related transcriptional gene silencing. To determine the relationships between RdDM and heterochromatin in the repeat-rich maize (Zea mays) genome, we performed whole-genome analyses of several heterochromatic features: dimethylation of lysine 9 and lysine 27 (H3K9me2 and H3K27me2), chromatin accessibility, DNA methylation, and small RNAs; we also analyzed two mutants that affect these processes, mediator of paramutation1 and zea methyltransferase2.

Project description:Drought represents a major constraint on maize production worldwide. Understanding the genetic basis for natural variation in drought tolerance of maize may facilitate efforts to improve this trait in cultivated germplasm. Here, using a genome-wide association study, we show that a miniature inverted-repeat transposable element (MITE) inserted in the promoter of a NAC gene (ZmNAC111) is significantly associated with natural variation in maize drought tolerance. For maize RNA-seq analysis, pooled tissues from three, eight-day-old maize seedlings were collected from transgenic and wild-type plants, prior to or after 2-hour dehydration, to conduct the RNA-seq analysis.

Project description:Maize (Zea mays) is an excellent cereal model for research on seed development because of its relatively large size for both embryo and endosperm. Despite the importance of seed in agriculture, the genome-wide transcriptome pattern throughout seed development has not been well characterized. Using high-throughput RNA sequencing, we developed a spatiotemporal transcriptome atlas of B73 maize seed development based on 53 samples from fertilization to maturity for embryo, endosperm, and whole seed tissues.

Project description:Papain-like cysteine proteases (PLCPs) play important roles in plant defense mechanisms. Previous work identified a set of five apoplastic PLCPs (CP1A, CP1B, CP2, XCP2 and CatB) which are crucial for the orchestration of SA-dependent defense signaling and vice versa in maize (Zea mays). One central question from these findings is which mechanism is triggered by apoplastic PLCPs to induce SA-dependent defenses. By a mass spectrometry approach we discovered a novel peptide (Zip1 = Zea mays immune signaling peptide) to be enriched in apoplastic fluid upon SA treatment. Zip1 induces PR-gene expression when applied to naїve maize leaves. Moreover, it activates apoplastic PLCPs similar as SA does, suggesting Zip1 to play an important role in SA-mediated defense signaling. In vitro studies using recombinant protein showed that CP1A and CP2, but not XCP2 and CatB, release Zip1 from its pro-peptide (PROZIP1) in vitro. Strikingly, metabolite analysis showed direct induction of SA de novo synthesis by Zip1 in maize leaves. In line with this, RNA sequencing revealed that Zip1-mediated changes in maize gene expression largely resemble SA-induced responses. Consequently, Zip1 increases maize susceptibility to the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Botrytis cinerea. In summary, this study identifies the PLCP-released peptide signal Zip1, which triggers SA signaling in maize.

Project description:Saha2011- Genome-scale metabolic network of
Zea mays (iRS1563)
This model is described in the article:
Zea mays iRS1563: a
comprehensive genome-scale metabolic reconstruction of maize
metabolism.

PLoS ONE 2011; 6(7): e21784
Abstract:
The scope and breadth of genome-scale metabolic
reconstructions have continued to expand over the last decade.
Herein, we introduce a genome-scale model for a plant with
direct applications to food and bioenergy production (i.e.,
maize). Maize annotation is still underway, which introduces
significant challenges in the association of metabolic
functions to genes. The developed model is designed to meet
rigorous standards on gene-protein-reaction (GPR) associations,
elementally and charged balanced reactions and a biomass
reaction abstracting the relative contribution of all biomass
constituents. The metabolic network contains 1,563 genes and
1,825 metabolites involved in 1,985 reactions from primary and
secondary maize metabolism. For approximately 42% of the
reactions direct literature evidence for the participation of
the reaction in maize was found. As many as 445 reactions and
369 metabolites are unique to the maize model compared to the
AraGEM model for A. thaliana. 674 metabolites and 893 reactions
are present in Zea mays iRS1563 that are not accounted for in
maize C4GEM. All reactions are elementally and charged balanced
and localized into six different compartments (i.e., cytoplasm,
mitochondrion, plastid, peroxisome, vacuole and extracellular).
GPR associations are also established based on the functional
annotation information and homology prediction accounting for
monofunctional, multifunctional and multimeric proteins,
isozymes and protein complexes. We describe results from
performing flux balance analysis under different physiological
conditions, (i.e., photosynthesis, photorespiration and
respiration) of a C4 plant and also explore model predictions
against experimental observations for two naturally occurring
mutants (i.e., bm1 and bm3). The developed model corresponds to
the largest and more complete to-date effort at cataloguing
metabolism for a plant species.
