Project description:This study conducted isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) proteomic analysis on near-isogenic lines (NILs) to shed light on the drought tolerance conferring qDSI.4B.1 QTL on short arm of chromosome 4B.
Project description:To better understand the regulatory mechanisms of water stress response in wheat, the transcript profiles in roots of two wheat genotypes, namely, drought tolerant 'Luohan No.2' (LH) and drought susceptible 'Chinese Spring' (CS) under water-stress were comparatively analyzed by using the Affymetrix wheat GeneChip®. A total of 3831 transcripts displayed 2-fold or more expression changes, 1593 transcripts were induced compared with 2238 transcripts were repressed, in LH under water-stress; Relatively fewer transcripts were drought responsive in CS, 1404 transcripts were induced and 1493 were repressed. Comparatively, 569 transcripts were commonly induced and 424 transcripts commonly repressed in LH and CS under water-stress. 689 transcripts (757 probe sets) identified from LH and 537 transcripts (575 probe sets) from CS were annotated and classified into 10 functional categories, and 74 transcripts derived from 80 probe sets displayed the change ratios no less than 16 in LH or CS. Several kinds of candidate genes were differentially expressed between the LH and CS, which could be responsible for the difference in drought tolerance of the two genotypes.

Several kinds of candidate genes were differentially expressed between the LH and CS, which could be responsible for the difference in drought tolerance of the two genotypes. Two common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars, Luohan No.2 (LH) and Chinese Spring (CS), were used for this study. Seedlings at the two leaf stage were stressed by cultured in PEG solutions for 6h, and some other seedlings were cultured in tap water as control. Root samples of LH and CS at 6h after the stress treatment and untreated control were prepared for microarray analysis.
Project description:Gene expression in near isogenic spring wheat lines carrying or not the 2DL FHB resistance QTL during early infection with Fusarium graminearum, the major causal agent of fusarium head blight in wheat
Project description:We used two wheat genotypes, the susceptible wheat cultivar ‘8866 ’(S) and its near isogenic line with single powdery mildew resistance gene ‘pm30’ (R), to investigate gene expression changes in response to powdery mildew infection by using Wheat Genome Array wheat young leveas of near isogenic lines before or 12 hours after powdery mildew infection were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.The leaf samples were harvested from three independent biological replicates, and the leaves without inoculation were regarded as control.
Project description:Near isogenic wheat lines(NILs), differing in the presence of both or none of the FHB-resistance QTL Fhb1 and Qfhs.ifa-5A, have been sequenced using Illumina HiSeq2000 under disease pressure (3, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48 hai) as well as with mock-inoculation, to discern transcriptional differences induced by Fusarium graminearum. The NILs are BC5F2 lines generated from the Mexican Spring wheat line CM-82036, the resistance QTL donor line, as recurrent background and the susceptible German Spring wheat line Remus as the donor of the susceptible QTL alleles.
