Project description:RNA-seq was used to assess gene expression variation in transgenic calli lines expressing Vitis vinifera chardonnay VvSWEET10 gene.
Project description:Purpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized systems-based analysis of cellular pathways. The goals of this study are to compare NGS-derived flower development transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) of two subspecies Methods: Flower mRNA profiles of wild-type (WT) four developmental stages and the same stages of Vitis vinifera subp vinifera were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina. Initial quality assessment was based on data passing the Illumina Chastity filtering. Subsequently, reads containing adapters and/or PhiX control signal were removed using an in-house filtering protocol. The second quality assessment was based on the remaining reads using the FASTQC quality control tool version 0.10.0. qRT–PCR validation was performed using EvaGreen assays. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped about 13 to 19 million sequence reads per Vitis sample, 50 bp in length equivalent to 1.5 Gb of total sequence data by each sample. The exception was male stage G (M_G) were only 7 to 8 million sequence reads were obtained. Five genes (VvTFL1, VvLFY, VvAP1, Vv AP3, VvPI), related to flowering development, were used to validate RNA-Seq data and to test for data reproducibility through qRT–PCR. The coefficient of correlation (r) obtained between the log2 of RPKM (RNA-Seq) versus log2 of mRNA average number (RT-qPCR), varied from ≈ 0.97 (VvTLF) to ≈ 0.73 (VvPI) indicating a good correlation between both techniques and thus validating our RNA-Seq results. Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed transcriptome analysis of four Vitis flower developmental stages, with the same individual, in three genders, generated by RNA-seq technology. The optimized data analysis workflows reported here should provide a framework for comparative investigations of expression profiles. Our results show that NGS offers a comprehensive and accurate quantitative and qualitative evaluation of mRNA contentper developmental stage. We conclude that RNA-seq based transcriptome characterization would expedite genetic network analyses and permit the dissection of complex biologic functions. Flowering mRNA profiles of four developmental stages of Vitis wild type (WT) and the domesticated Vitis were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina HiSeq 2500.
Project description:Methods:transcriptomes of the different development stages of Vitis vinifera cv. Cabernet Sauvignon and Vitis quinquangularis accession Danfeng-2 were analyzed using Illumina Hiseq 2500. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed: TopHat followed by Cufflinks. mRNA profiles of different development stages of Vitis vinifera cv. Cabernet Sauvignon and Vitis quinquangularis accession Danfeng-2 were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina Hiseq 2500.
Project description:Seedless varieties are of particular importance to the table-grape and raisin industries. Gibberellin (GA) application is widely used in the early stages of seedless berry development to increase berry size and economic value. However, the underlying mechanism of GA induction of berry enlargement is not well understood. Here, RNA-sequencing analysis of âCentennial Seedlessâ (Vitis vinifera L.) berries treated with GA3 12 days after flowering is reported.
Project description:We report the berry pericarp transcriptomic profiles of 5 white Vitis vinifera varieties: Vermentino, Garganega, Glera, Moscato bianco and Passerina at 4 growth stages: pea-sized berries (Bbch 75) at almost 20 days after flowering, berries beginning to touch (Bbch77) just prior véraison, the softening of the berries (Bbch 85) at the end of véraison and berries ripe for harvest (Bbch 89)
Project description:We report the berry pericarp transcriptomic profiles of 5 red Vitis vinifera varieties: Sangiovese, Barbera, Negro amaro, Refosco and Primitivo at 4 growth stages: pea-sized berries (Bbch 75) at almost 20 days after flowering, berries beginning to touch (Bbch77) just prior véraison, the softening of the berries (Bbch 85) at the end of véraison and berries ripe for harvest (Bbch 89)
Project description:A double cropping system has been commercially adopted in subtropical regions in southern China, where there is abundant sunshine and heat resources. In this viticulture system, the first growing season normally starts as a summer cropping cycle; then, the vine is pruned and forced by hydrogen cyanamide, resulting in a second crop in January of the next year. Due to climate differences between the two growing seasons,the transcriptome varies greatly between summer- and winter- grape berries. In this study, we conducted RNA-seq for two table grape varieties (Vitis vinifera cv. Victoria and V. vinifera cv. Muscat Superior) at three developmental stages (pre-veraison, post-veraison and full maturity).The transcriptome between summer- and winter- grape berries were compared.

Project description:Experimental research on the effects of abiotic stress over grapevine has mainly focused on water shortage. The adaptation of plants to stress is a complex response triggered by cascades of molecular networks involved in stress perception, signal transduction, and the expression of specific stress-related genes and metabolites. Approaches such as array-based transcript profiling allow assessing the expression of thousands of genes in control and stress tissues. Gene expression upon acute (heat and light) and steady (drought) individual stresses and field conditions were compared in two grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) varieties, Trincadeira (TR) and Touriga Nacional (TN).
