Project description:The plant vascular system is essential for the enlarged plant stature and successful colonizzation the land by delivering resources throughout the plants and providing mechanical support. Despite several regulators of vascular patterning have been reported, how vascular system mediates stress resistance remain largely unknown. Here we identified a CsIND transcription factor that is specifically expressed in the xylem and phloem tissues in cucumber. Knock down of CsIND by RNAi lead to dwarf plants with enlarged or disorganized vascular systems in all aerial organs. The content of both auxin and jasmonic acid were increased in the CsIND-RNAi lines. Transcriptome profiling by RNA-Seq hints CsIND-regulated gene networks for defense response and vascular development. Biochemical analyses verified that CsIND directly binds to well-known vascular regulators including CsCCR1, CsMYB116, CsYAB5, CsBP and CsAUX, and physically interacts with dorsiventral patterning genes CsKAN2 and CsYAB5. Further, CsIND-RNAi plants displayed significantly enhanced tolerance to nitrogen dificency and resistance to cucumber downy mildew. Therefore, CsIND regulates vascular formation and resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses in cucumber, through the combinarory interactions with well-known vascular regulaors and hormone metabolism and signaling pathways.

Project description:Ethylene, as a signaling hormone molecule, is proved to have essential role in the process of root development. In the present study, cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) seedlings were employed to estimate differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) during the adventitious rooting using iTRAQ technique and proteomics analysis. Out of the 5014 DEPs, 115 DEPs were considered as identified proteins, and among them, 24 DEPs are interesting proteins abundance.

Project description:Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) fruit is a type of fleshy fruit that is harvested immaturely. Early fruit development directly determines the final fruit length and diameter, and consequently the fruit yield and quality. Different cucumber varieties display huge variations of fruit length, but how fruit length is determined at the molecular level remains poorly understood. To understand the genes and gene networks that regulate fruit length in cucumber, high throughout RNA-seq data were used to compare the transcriptomes of early fruit from two near isogenic lines with different fruit lengths. 3955 genes were found to be differentially expressed, among which 2368 genes were significantly up-regulated and 1587 down-regulated in the line with long fruit. Microtubule and cell cycle related genes were dramatically activated in the long fruit, and transcription factors were implicated in the fruit length regulation in cucumber. Thus, our results built a foundation to dissect the molecular mechanism of fruit length control in cucumber, a key agricultural trait of significant economic importance. Comparative analysis of fruit from two near-isogenic lines, 408 (long fruit) and 409 (short fruit), was employed to discover genes and networks that regulate the fruit length. Two biological replicates were used from each line.

Project description:Background. Ovary culture has been a useful way to generate double haploid (DH) plant in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.). However, the rate of embryo induction and the ability for induced embryo to grow into normal embryo are quite low. Moreover, the s mechanism of cucumber embryogenesis remains ambiguous. In this study, the molecular basis for cucumber embryogenesis was explored to set up basis for a more efficient ovary culture method. Differentially expressed genes during embryogenesis process, including the early stages of embryo formation, embryo maturation and shoot formation, were investigated using transcriptomic sequencing. Methods. Based on the cytological observation of cucumber ovary culture, the ovary culture can be divided into three stages:early embryo development, embryo maturation (from pre-embryos to cotyledon embryos) and the shoot formation stage. six key time points were selected for transcriptome sequencing and analysis. Results. We firstly conducted cytological observations which suggest that cell enlargement is the symbol for gametophytes to switch to sporophyte development pathway during early embryogenesis stage. In this stage, RNA-seq revealed 3468 up-regulated genes, including hormone signal transduction genes, hormone response genes and stress-induced genes. The reported embryogenesis-related genes BBM, HSP90 and AGL were also actively expressed during this stage. The total 480 genes that function in protein complex binding, microtubule binding, tetrapyrrole binding, tubulin binding and other microtubule activities were continuously up-regulated during the embryo maturation stage, indicating that the cytoskeleton structure was continuously being built and maintained by the action of microtubule-binding proteins and enzyme modification during embryo development. In shoot formation stage, 1383 genes were up-regulated, which were mainly enriched in phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, plant hormone signal transduction, phenylalanine metabolism, and starch and sucrose metabolism. The shoot formation stage might be regulated by 6 transcription factors that contained a B3 domain, 9 genes in the AP2/ERF family and 2 genes encoded WUS homologous domain proteins. Conclusions. These findings offer a valuable framework for explaining the transcriptional regulatory mechanism underlying embryogenesis during cucumber ovary culture.

Project description:The successful fusion of sperms and eggs need firstly the reception of pollens by stigmatic papillae, and then the unobstructed transmitting tract (TT) providing an extension channel for pollen tubes carrying with sperm cells. However, the genes involved in transmitting tract specification and cavity formation in cucumber remained largely unknown. Here, we characterized the bHLH gene, Cucumis sativus SPATULA (CsSPT) and its redundant function with Cucumis sativus ALCATRAZ (CsALC) in TT development and stigma convergence in cucumber.

Project description:Trichomes are the hair-like structures that are widely present on the surface of aerial organs and function in plant defense against biotic and abiotic stresses. Previous studies focus on the single cell trichomes in Arabidopsis and cotton, or multicellular glandular trichomes in tomato, but the developmental process and molecular mechanisms controlling multicellular non-glandular trichome development are largely neglected. Here, we extensively characterized the fruit trichome (spine) development in wild type cucumber and in a tiny branched hair (tbh) mutant that contains a spontaneous mutation and has hairless foliage and smooth fruit surface. Our data indicated that cucumber trichome was multicellular and non-glandular, with no branches or endoreduplication. Further, the major feature of cucumber trichome development was spine base expansion. Transcriptome profiling through Digital Gene Expression indicated that meristem-related genes and transcription factors were implicated in the fruit spine development, and polarity regulators were upregulated during spine base expansion. qRT-PCR verified the reliability of our RNA-SEQ data, and in situ hybridization confirmed the enriched expression of meristem regulators CUP-SHAPED COTYLEDON3 (CUC3) and STM (SHOOT MERISTEMLESS) , as well as the abaxial identity gene KANADI (KAN) in cucumber fruit spine. Together, our results suggest a distinct regulatory pathway involving meristem genes and polarity regulators in multicellular trichome development in cucumber. Using Digital Gene Expression technology to compare the genome-wide gene expression profiles in the fruit spines of wild type cucumber and the tbh mutant, as well as the fruit spines on fruits of 0.5cm and 1.6cm long, repectively. Two biological repelicates were generated for each tissue.
