Project description:Allopolyploidy is long recognized as an essential driving force in plant evolution. Recent studies have demonstrated that small RNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs), play important roles in the process of allopolyploidy. However, the question that how the distinct parent-of-origin miRNAs are maintained in allopolyploids and how these small RNAs affect gene expression and phenotypes remain to be answered. Therefore, we investigated the miRNA expression profiles of a synthesized allotetraploid, Cucumis ×hytivus and its parents. The different developmental stages of leaves of C. ×hytivus showing contrasting leaf colour were compared as well. Following high-throughput sequencing, 546 conserved and 287 novel miRNAs were identified. The expression levels of nine miRNAs obtained by quantitative real-time PCR were consistent with the sequencing results. We detected that 15 miRNAs were divergently expressed between the parent species, and 23 miRNAs were differentially expressed in C. ×hytivus compared to either of its parents or both, which suggests the significant effect of allopolyploidization on miRNAs accumulation. Additionally, 26 conserved and 13 novel miRNAs differed in expression between the young and mature leaves of C. ×hytivus, indicating an essential role of miRNA-mediated regulation of leaf development following allopolyploidization. This study enriches the context of allopolyploidy effect on miRNAs and lays a foundation for the elucidation of the miRNA-mediated regulatory mechanism in phenotypic variation in allopolyploids.

Project description:Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is a commercially important fruit crop that is cultivated worldwide. The melon research community has recently benefited from the determination of a complete draft genome sequence and the development of associated genomic tools, which have allowed us to focus on small RNAs (sRNAs). These are short, non-coding RNAs 21â24 nucleotides in length with diverse physiological roles. In plants, they regulate gene expression and heterochromatin assembly, and control protection against virus infection. Much remains to be learned about the role of sRNAs in melon. We constructed 10 sRNA libraries from two stages of developing ovaries, fruits and photosynthetic cotyledons infected with viruses, and carried out high-throughput pyrosequencing. We catalogued and analyzed the melon sRNAs, resulting in the identification of 26 known miRNA families (many conserved with other species), the prediction of 84 melon-specific miRNA candidates, the identification of trans-acting siRNAs, and the identification of chloroplast, mitochondrion and transposon-derived sRNAs. In silico analysis revealed more than 400 potential targets for the conserved and novel miRNAs. This analysis provides insight into the composition and function of the melon small RNAome, and paves the way towards an understanding of sRNA-mediated processes that regulate melon fruit development and melonâvirus interactions.

Raw reads were obtained from two independent 454 runs, ~22,000 reads each one, to a total of 447,180 reads

Project description:Plant virus infection involves the production of viral small RNAs (vsRNAs) with the potential to associate with distinct Argonaute (AGO)-containing silencing complexes and mediate diverse silencing effects on RNA and chromatin. We used multiplexed, high-throughput pyrosequencing to profile populations of vsRNAs from plants infected with viruses from different genera. Sense and antisense vsRNAs of 20 to 24 nucleotides (nts) spread throughout the entire viral genomes in an overlapping configuration; virtually all genomic nucleotide positions were represented in the dataset. We present evidence to suggest that every genomic position could be a putative cleavage site for vsRNA formation, although viral genomes contain specific regions that serve as preferential sources of vsRNA production. Hotspots for vsRNAs of 21-, 22-, and 24-nt usually coincide in the same genomic regions, indicating similar target affinities among Dicer-like (DCL) enzymes. In the light of our results, the overall contribution of perfectly base paired double-stranded RNA and imperfectly base paired structures within single-stranded RNA to vsRNA formation is discussed. Our census of vsRNAs extends the current view of the distribution and composition of vsRNAs in virus-infected plants, and contributes to define a more comprehensive scenario of vsRNA biogenesis and their regulatory functions in plants Raw data files are available on our FTP site: ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/geosup/Series/GSE16996 10 samples examined: Arabidopsis plants infected with TRV, TuMV or CMV; Nicothiana benthamiana plants infected with CymRSV, PVX or PMMoV; Cucumis melo plants infected with MNSV, quimeric MNSV or WMV and Solanum lycopersicum plants infected with TYLCV.
