Project description:Mechanism behind heterosis has remained a mystery for a very long time despite its agricultural importance. Here, we report an integrated analysis of the phenotypes and transcriptomes of early shoot and true leaf during seedling growth at high-temporal-resolution in two Arabidopsis ecotypes and their F1 hybrid. We identify the core gene co-expression networks underlying the dynamic regulations of transcriptomes and their sophisticated differences between hybrid and parents. We provide the first evidence of spatiotemporally transcriptional dominant complementation in hybrid between the network hub genes involved in cell division and photosynthesis, respectively. Our findings highlight the pivotal roles of functionally dominant allelic action and expression complementation of fundamental biological pathways in growth heterosis.

Project description:Through genome-wide comparative transcriptome analysis, we strongly predict that overdominance at gene expression level plays a pivotal role in early biomass vigor of hybrids. The combinational contribution of circadian rhythm and other metabolic processes may be controlled vigorous growth in hybrids. Our result provides an important foundation for dissecting molecular mechanisms of biomass vigor in hybrid cotton

Project description:Arabidopsis thaliana shows hybrid vigour (heterosis) in progeny of crosses between Col and C24 accessions (1). Hybrid vigour was evident as early as the mature seeds and in the seedlings 3 days after sowing (DAS). At 3 DAS genes encoding chloroplast-located proteins were significantly overrepresented (187) among the 724 genes which have greater than mid parent values of expression in the hybrid. Many of these genes are involved in chlorophyll biosynthesis and photosynthesis. The rate of photosynthesis was constant per unit leaf area in parents and hybrids. Larger cell sizes in the hybrids were associated with more chloroplasts per cell, more total chlorophyll and more photosynthesis. The increased transcription of the chloroplast-targeted genes was restricted to the 3 to 7 DAS period. At 10 DAS only 118 genes had expression levels different from the expected mid parent value in the hybrid and only 12 of these genes were differentially expressed at 3 DAS. The early increase in activity of genes involved in photosynthesis and the associated phenomena of increase in cell size and number through development, leading to larger leaf areas of all leaves in the hybrid, suggest a central role for increased photosynthesis in the production of the heterotic biomass. In support of this correlation we found that an inhibitor of photosynthesis eliminated heterosis and higher light intensities enhanced both photosynthesis and heterosis. In hybrids with low level heterosis (Ler x Col) chloroplast-targeted genes were not upregulated and leaf areas were only marginally increased.

Project description:Improving photosynthesis is a major approach to increase crop yield potential. Here we report a negative transcription factor of photosynthesis, which can be manipulated to increase rice photosynthesis and plant biomass in the field. This transcription factor named negative regulator of photosynthesis 1 (NRP1) (Os07g0471900) which was identified through a co-expression analysis using rice leaf RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data. The NRP1 showed significantly negative correlation with the expression of many genes involved in photosynthesis. Knocking out NPR1 led to greater photosynthesis and increased biomass in the field, while overexpression of NRP1 decreased photosynthesis and biomass. Transcriptomic data analysis shows that NRP1 can negatively regulate the expression of photosynthetic genes. Protein transactivation experiments show that NRP1 is a transcription activator, implying that NRP1 may indirectly regulate photosynthesis gene expression through an unknown regulator. This study shows that combination of bioinformatics analysis with transgenic testing can be used to identify new regulators to improve photosynthetic efficiency in crops.

Project description:F1 hybrids can outperform their parents in yield and vegetative biomass, features of hybrid vigor which form the basis of the hybrid seed industry. The yield advantage of the F1 is lost in the F2 and subsequent generations. In Arabidopsis, from F2 plants which have a F1 –like phenotype, we have by recurrent selection produced pure breeding F5/F6 lines “Hybrid Mimics”, in which the characteristics of the F1 Hybrid are stabilized. These Hybrid Mimic lines, like the F1 Hybrid, have larger leaves than the parent plant, the leaves having increased photosynthetic cell numbers, and in some lines increased size of cells, suggesting an increased supply of photosynthate. A comparison of the differentially expressed genes in the F1 Hybrid with those of eight Hybrid Mimic lines has identified metabolic pathways altered in both; these pathways include down regulation of defense response pathways and altered abiotic response pathways. F6 Hybrid Mimic lines are mostly homozygous at each locus in the genome yet retain the large F1-like phenotype. Many alleles in the F6 plants, when they are homozygous, have expression levels different to the level in the parent. We consider this altered expression to be a consequence of trans-regulation of genes from one parent by genes from the other parent. Transregulation could also arise from epigenetic modifications in the F1. The pure breeding Hybrid Mimics have been valuable in probing the mechanisms of hybrid vigor and may also prove to be useful hybrid vigor equivalents in agriculture.

Project description:Background: High seed vigor is crucial for agricultural production owing to its potential in high quality and yield of crops. A better understanding of the underlying mechanisms is highly necessary. Results: To better understand the involvement and regulatory mechanism of miRNAs correlated with maize seed vigor, small RNAs and degradome sequencing of two inbred lines Yu537A and Yu82 were performed. A total of 791 mature miRNAs were obtained with different expressions, among of which 505 miRNAs were newly identified and the rest miRNAs were more or less reported before by comparing the miRNAs with the sequences in miRbase database. Analysis of miRNA families showed maize seeds contain fewer miRNA families and larger miRNA families compared with animals, indicating that functions of miRNAs in maize seeds were more synergistic than animals. Degradome sequencing was used to identify the targets of miRNAs and the results showed a total of 6196 targets were obtained. Function analysis of differentially expressed miRNAs and targets showed Glycan degradation and galactose metabolism were closely correlated with improved corn seed vigor. Conclusions: These findings provide valuable information to understand the involvement of miRNAs with corn seed vigor and these putative genes will be valuable resources for improving the seed vigor in future corn breeding.
