Project description:The genetic foundation of chicken tail feather color is not very well studied to date, though that of body feather color is extensively explored. In the present study, we used a synthetic chicken dwarf line (DW), which was originated from the hybrids between a black tail chicken breed, Rhode Island Red (RIR) and a white tail breed, Dwarf Layer (DL), to understand the genetic rules of the white/black tail color. The DW line still contain the individuals with black or white tails, even if the body feather are predominantly red, after more than ten generation of self-crossing and being selected for the body feather color. We firstly performed four crosses using the DW line chickens including black tail male to female, reciprocal crosses between the black and white, and white male to female to elucidate the inheritance pattern of the white/black tail. We found that (i) the white/black tail feather colors are independent of body feather color and (ii) the phenotype are autosomal simple trait and (iii) the white are dominant to the black in the DW lines. Furtherly, we performed a genome-wide association (GWA) analysis to determine the candidate genomic regions underlying the tail feather color by using black tail chickens from the RIR and DW chickens and white individuals from DW lines.

Pycnoporus coccineus interaction analysis

Project description:The fungus Pycnoporus coccineus was grown either alone or in presence of another fungus (here: Coniophora puteana or Botrytis cinerea) in order to study the fungal interspecific interaction mechanisms.

Production of Red Flower Rapeseed by Ectopic Expression of OvPAP2 Identified in Brassica napus-Orychophragmus violaceus Addition Line by Comparative Transcriptome Analysis

Project description:Oilseed rape is both an important oleaginous crop and agriculture sightseeing crop whereas has relatively scanty flower color. As natural ﬂavonoids, Anthocyanin are responsible for the attractive red, purple, and blue colors of various tissues in higher plants, especially for the ornamental plants flower. One Brassica napus-Orychophragmus violaceus disomic addition line (M4) obtained previously exhibits red petals whichresult from anthocyanin biosynthesis. Transcriptome analysis of M4, B. napus (H3), natural individuals of O. violaceus with purple petals (OvP) and white petals (OvW) revealed that most of structural genes for the anthocyanin synthesis were up-regulated in both M4 and OvP, especially key gene ANS in the last step. Reads assembling and sequence alignment showed that the regulatory DEG PAP2 in M4 was from the transcript of O. violaceus. OvPAP2 was transformed into Arabidopsis thaliana and B. napus driven by the CaMV35S promoter and the rape petal-specific prompter XY355. Transgenic A. thaliana plants showed different levels of purple pigments in most of the organs, including the petals, and transgenic B. napus flowers exhibited restricted accumulation of anthocyanins in stamens when driven by CaMV35S promoter, but generated both red petals and anthers driven by the XY355 promoter. These results provided a platform for expounding the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway in B. napus petals and give a successful case for flower color modification of the agriculture sightseeing rape.
