Project description:Pink-flowered strawberry is a new promising ornamental flower derived from intergeneric hybridization (Fragaria × Potentilla) with bright color, prolonged flowering period and edible fruits. However, the transcriptional events underlying anthocyanins biosynthesis pathway have not been fully characterized in its petal coloration. The pigment compounds accumulated in its fruits were the same as cultivated strawberry, but different from in its flowers. To gain insights into the regulatory networks related to anthocyanin biosynthesis and identify key genes, we performed an integrated analyses of the transcriptome and metabolomes involved in red petals at three development stages (Bud stage (L), Coloration beginning stage (Z) and Big bud stage (D)) of pink-flowered strawberry. Transcript and metabolite profiles were generated through high-throughput RNA-sequencing and high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry, respectively. The results showed that the main pigments of red and dark pink petals were anthocyanins, among which cyanidins were the main compounds. There were no anthocyanins detected in white-flowered hybrids. A total of 50 285 non-redundant unigenes were obtained from the transcriptome databases, among which 59 differentially expressed genes could be identified as putative homologues of flower coloration related genes. Based on a comprehensive analysis relating pigmentation compounds to gene expression profiles, the mechanism of flower color formation was examined in pink-flowered strawberry. Furthermore, a new hypothesis explaining the lack of color phenotype of the white-flowered strawberry hybrids from the level of the transcriptome. The expression patterns of FpDFR gene and FpANS gene corresponded to the accumulation patterns of cyanidin contents in pink-flowered strawberry hybrids with different shades of pink; Whereas other anthocyanin biosynthesis genes were weakly related flower color deepened. Moreover, FpANS, FpBZ1 and FpUGT75C1 genes were the key factors that lead to the inability to accumulate anthocyanins in the white petals of PFS hybrids. Meanwhile, the competitive effect of FpFLS gene and FpDFR gene may further inhibit anthocyanin synthesis. The data presented herein are important for understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the petal pigmentation and will be powerful for integrating into novel genes that are potential targets for breeding new valuable pink-flowered strawberry cultivars.

Project description:The pink-flowered strawberry is very popular in China due to its appreciation and economic benefits and its flower has rich red petal with varying degrees, which is provided by anthocyanins accumulation. To better understand the functions of miRNAs, sRNAome, transcriptome and degradome sequencing were used to explore the target genes of miRNAs in flower development and coloring of pink-flowered strawberry. Nine small RNA libraries and a mixed degradome library from flower petals at different developmental stages were constructed and sequenced in this study. A total of 739 known miRNAs and 964 newly identified miRNAs were identified via small RNA sequencing, and their 2816 target genes were cleaved by 639 miRNAs based on the degradome data. There were 317 different expression miRNAs among flower development in pink-flowered strawberry regulated 2134 different expression target genes, which significantly enriched in the transcriptional regulation, phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and plant hormone signal transduction. Furthermore, integrated microRNAomic and transcriptomic analyses suggested that 98 miRNAs were targeted several transcription factors related to anthocyanin accumulation, in which 26 were targeted to MYBs, 12 bHLHs, 14 NACs, and 19 SPLs. And that, twenty seven different expression miRNAs may affect anthocyanin biosynthesis by regulating 23 targets participated in hormone signal transduction pathway in pink-flowered strawberry. The qRT-PCR analysis confirmed the expression changes of 21 miRNA-target pairs showed an opposite trend. Moreover, a co-expression regulatory network was constructed based on differentially expressed miRNA-targets according to the degradome data. Overall, we conducted a comparative analysis uncovered the regulatory functions of microRNAs in flower development and color changes of pink-flowered strawberry via multiple factors, including anthocyanin biosynthesis, hormone signaling and regulation factors. This work not only expands the knowledge of miRNAs affecting the coloration in strawberry, but also provides rich resources for future functional studies.

Project description:Investigation of gene expression level changes in snapdragon petals and sepals during flower development The flower developmental stages analyzed in this study are representative of distinct developmental events: (i) preanthesis, (ii) anthesis, (iii) maturation and (iv) presenescence and are further described in the accompanying article. A 24 chip study using total RNA recovered from samples of petal and sepal tissue of Antirrhinum majus cv. Maryland True Pink harvested at four different stages of flower development, namely (i) preanthesis (three days before flower opening=d-3), (ii) anthesis (day of flower opening=d1), (iii) maturation (four days after flower opening=d4) and (iv) presenescence (seven days after flower opening=d7). Three separate samples were extracted per tissue and developmental stages. Each chip measures the expression level of 11,959 ESTs from Antirrhinum majus cv. Maryland True Pink with up to six 60-mer probes per target.

Project description:In plants, microRNAs (miRNAs) play a critical role in post-transcriptional gene regulation and have been shown to control many genes involved in various biological and metabolic processes. Deep sequencing technologies have facilitated identification of species-specific or lowly expressed as well as conserved or highly expressed miRNAs in plants. Strawberry is one of the most economically important fruit throughout the world.Although miRNAs have been extensively studied in the past five years, limited systematic study of miRNAs has been performed on the Fragaria genus. These results show that regulatory miRNAs exist in agronomically important strawberry and may play an important role in strawberry growth, development, and response to disease. High throughput sequencing was employed to identify miRNAs in strawberry and try to describe their functions in strawberry growth and development
