Project description:Purpose: Alternative splicing is fundamental for post-transcriptional regulation and proteome diversity. The goals of this study are to compare transcriptome and splicing profiling (RNA-seq) between wild type and prp8a prp8b mutant ovules of the spliceosome subunit and define the molecular signature of prp8a prp8b pollen tube attraction phenotype. Methods: mRNA profiles from mature ovules of 6-weeks-old wild-type (WT) and pre-mRNA processing factor 8 (PRP8Aa prp8bb) Arabidopsis plants were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicates, using Illumina HiSeq4000 100bp paired-end reads. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were were mapped to TAIR10 whole genome and analyzed for differential expression, differential exone usage and intron retention as indicated in DATA PROCESSING PIPELINE section. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, about 15 million sequence read pairs per sample were mapped to the Arabidopsis genome (TAIR10). Approximately 2.9% of the transcripts showed differential expression between the WT and PRP8Aa prp8bb ovules, with a fold change ≥1.5 and p value <0.05. Analysis for differential gene expression, exon usage and intron retention with DESeq2 v1.22.1 and DEXseq v1.28.0 or IRFinder v1.2.3 respectively, uncovered several as yet uncharacterized genes that may contribute to pollen tube attraction and female gametophyte cell fate specification. Conclusions: Our work has uncovered a molecular signature through which PRP8A/PRP8B subunits act redundantly to define male-female signaling competence for successful pollen tube attraction in Arabidopsis. Application of DESeq2 algorithms to our ovule RNA-seq data identified downregulation of over 50 different CRP genes with yet unknown function from the synergid and the central cells including all LURE pollen tube attractants. Whereas use of DEXseq workflow, revealed mis-splicing of key genes involved embryo sac specificiation and genes of the secretory pathway. We concluded that 100bp paired-end RNAseq was a sufficient compromise for detection of differential gene expression and splice isoforms, however, our experiment would have benefited with more number of replicates.

Project description:Pollen tubes extend through pistil tissues and are guided to ovules where they release sperm for fertilization. Although pollen tubes can germinate and elongate in a synthetic medium, their trajectory is random and their growth rates are slower compared to growth in pistil tissues. Furthermore, interaction with the pistil renders pollen tubes competent to respond to guidance cues secreted by specialized cells within the ovule. The molecular basis for this potentiation of the pollen tube by the pistil remains uncharacterized. We used a surgical procedure to obtain large quantities of uncontaminated pollen tubes that grew through the pistil and defined their transcriptome by microarray analysis. We also characterized the transcriptome of in vitro-grown pollen tubes (for 0.5hours or 4hours) and dessicated mature pollen in Arabidopsis.

Project description:Background: Pollen, the male partner in the reproduction of flowering plants, comprises either two or three cells at maturity. The current knowledge of the pollen transcriptome is limited to the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, which has tri-cellular pollen grains at maturity. Comparative studies on pollen of other genera, particularly crop plants, are needed to understand the pollen gene networks that are subject to functional and evolutionary conservation. In this study, we used the Affymetrix Soybean GeneChip® to perform transcriptional profiling on mature bi-cellular soybean pollen. Results: Compared to the sporophyte transcriptome, the soybean pollen transcriptome revealed a restricted and unique repertoire of genes, with a significantly greater proportion of specifically expressed genes than is found in the sporophyte tissue. Comparative analysis shows that, among the 37,500 soybean unique transcripts addressed in this study, 10,299 genes (27.46%) are expressed in pollen. Of the pollen-expressed genes, about 9,489 (92.13%) are also expressed in sporophytic tissues, and 810 (7.87%) are selectively expressed in pollen. Overall, the soybean pollen transcriptome shows an enrichment of transcription factors (mostly zinc finger family proteins), cell cycle-related transcripts, signal recognition receptors, ethylene responsive factors, chromatin remodeling factors, and members of the ubiquitin proteasome proteolytic pathway. Moreover, we identify several new pollen-specific candidate genes that might play a significant role in pollen biology. Conclusion: This is the first report of a soybean pollen transcriptional profile. These data extend our current knowledge regarding regulatory pathways that govern the gene regulation and development of pollen. We also demonstrate that pollen is a rich store of regulatory proteins that are essential and sufficient for de novo gene expression. A comparison between transcription factors up-regulated in soybean and those upregulated in Arabidopsis revealed some divergence in the numbers and kinds of regulatory proteins expressed in both species.

Project description:In this study, we sequenced four small RNA libraries derived from mature pollens, in vitro germinated pollens, mature silks and pollinated silks of maize, respectively. In total, 161 known miRNAs belonging to 27 families and 82 novel miRNAs were identified. Of them, miRNAs involved in pollen-silk (pistil) interactions were analyzed. On the male side, miRNA differentially expressed between mature and germinated pollen were identified, some of them participate in pollen germination and tube growth. On the female side, silk-expressed miRNAs respond to pollination were also responsive to stresses, especially drought and fungal invasion. Furthermore, GO analysis of target genes revealed that members related to anxin signal transduction and gene expressional regulation were overrepresented.The results indicated that during pollen-silk interactions, miRNAs-mediated auxin signal transduction plays important roles, and miRNAs took part in complex transcriptional regulating network.
