Project description:The meristem-associated endosymbiont M. extorquens DSM13060 significantly increases needle and root growth of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) seedlings without producing plant hormones, but by aggregating around host nuclei. Here we studied gene expression of the pine host induced by M. extorquens DSM13060 infection. We selected the time point of 90 days post-inoculation for our analysis based, because at this point, Methylorubrum extorquens DSM13060 has systemically colonized the pine seedlings, being found throughout tissues of roots and shoots.

Project description:Maize and rice are the two most economically important grass crops and utilize distinct forms of photosynthesis to fix carbon: C4 and C3 respectively. Relative to C3 photosynthesis, C4 photosynthesis reduces photorespiration and affords higher water and nitrogen use efficiencies under hot arid conditions. To define key innovations in C4 photosynthesis, we profiled metabolites and gene expression along a developing leaf gradient. A novel statistical method was implemented to compare transcriptomes from these two species along a unified leaf developmental gradient and define candidate cis-regulatory elements and transcription factors driving photosynthetic gene expression. We also present comparative primary and secondary metabolic profiles along the gradients that provide new insight into nitrogen and carbon metabolism in C3 and C4 grasses. These resources, including community viewers to access and mine these datasets, will enable the elucidation and engineering of C4 photosynthetic networks to improve the photosynthetic capacity of C3 and C4 grasses.
