Project description:Denmark has an extraordinarily large and well-preserved collection of archaeological skin garments found in peat bogs, dated to approximately 920 BC - AD 775. These objects provide not only the possibility to study prehistoric skin costume and technologies, but also to investigate the animal species used for production of skin garments. Until recently, species identification of archaeological skin was mainly performed by light and scanning electron microscopy or analysis of ancient DNA. However, the efficacy of these methods can be limited due to the harsh, mostly acidic environment of peat bogs leading to morphological and molecular degradation within the samples. We compared species assignment results of twelve archaeological skin samples from Danish bogs using Mass Spectrometry (MS)-based peptide sequencing, against results obtained using light and scanning electron microscopy

Project description:This work aimed to characterize the molecular adaptations occurring in cork oak (Quercus suber) stems in adaptation to drought, and identify key genetic pathways regulating phellem development. One-year-old cork oak plants were grown for additional 6 months under well-watered (WW) or water-deficit (WD) conditions and main stems were targeted for transcriptomic analysis. WD had a negative impact on secondary growth, decreasing the activity of the vascular cambium and phellogen. Following a tissue-specific approach, we analyzed the transcriptional changes imposed by WD in phellem (outer bark), inner bark, and xylem, and found a global downregulation of genes related to cell division, cell wall biogenesis, lignin and/or suberin biosynthesis. Phellem and phloem showed a concerted upregulation of photosynthesis-related genes, suggesting a determinant role of stem photosynthesis in the adaptation of young plants to long-term drought. The data gathered will be important to further harness the diverse genetic background of this species for the development of optimized management practices.

Project description:Purpose: de novo sequencing and comparative analysis of the bark transciptomes of Hevea brasiliensis induced without ethephon (C), with ethephon for 8 hours (E8) and 24 hours (E24) to identify the genes and pathways related to the stimulation of rubber production by ethylene. The goals of this study are to reveal the molecular mechanism behind the stimulation of rubber production by ethylene. Methods: Bark RNA was extracted using the TRIzol® Reagent (Invitrogen) and two cDNA libraries, H (healthy rubber trees) and T (TPD-affected trees), were prepared using the mRNA-Seq 8 sample prep Kit (Illumina). The libraries were deep sequenced using Illumina HiSeqTM 2000 (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA, USA). Raw reads produced from sequencing machines were resorted to de novo assembly and gene annotation. Results: De novo sequencing and assembly of the bark transciptomes of Hevea brasiliensis induced with ethephon for 8 hours (E8) and 24 hours (E24) were performed. 51,965,770, 52,303,714 and 53,177,976 high-quality clean reads from E8, E24 and C (control) samples were assembled into 81,335, 80,048 and 80,800 unigenes respectively, with a total of 84,425 unigenes and an average length of 1,101 bp generated. 10,216 and 9,374 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in E8 and E24 compared with C were respectively detected. The expression of several enzymes in crucial points of regulation in glycolysis were up-regulated and DEGs were not significantly enriched in isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) biosynthesis pathway. In addition, up-regulated genes of great regulatory importance in carbon fixation (Calvin cycle) were identified. Conclusions: The rapid acceleration of glycolytic pathway supplying precursors for the biosynthesis of IPP and natural rubber, instead of rubber biosynthesis per se, may be responsible for ethylene stimulation of latex yield in rubber tree. The elevated rate of flux throughout the Calvin cycle may account for some durability of ethylene-induced stimulation. Our finding lays the foundations for molecular diagnostic and genetic engineering for high-yielding improvement of rubber tree. De novo sequencing of the transcriptomes of C (bark without ethephon application), E8 (bark with 1.5%-ethephon treatment for 8 hours) and E24 (bark with 1.5%-ethephon treatment for 24 hours) rubber trees was conducted using Illumina HiSeq 2000.

Project description:Wood density is a foundamental quality trait for structural timber, bioenergy and pulp industries. We investigated genes differentially transcribed in radiate pine juvneile trees with distinct wood density using cDNA microarrays. Radiata pine trees were selected from a progeny trial planted at Flynn, Australia. Based on the gravitical measurement of wood cores, 12 families with highest and lowest density each were selected, representing two groups of trees with contrasting wood density. One individual with higher or lower density were further sampled in each selected family. Developing xylem tissues of selected trees were sampled in autumn (April) when latewood (LW) was formed. The xylem tissues were scraped at breast height with a sharp chisel after the bark was removed. Wood cores of the sampled trees were further measured using SilviScan 2. Total RNA extracted from ten developing xylem tissues with confirmed distinct density in each tree group were pooled into two bulks (five trees each), and the two bulks of HD were compared with two LD bulks in the microarray experiment (named the bulk experiment). Six developing xylem tissues with the most distinct density from each tree group were further chosen. Six xylem tissues with HD were individually compared with bulked six xylem tissues with LD in the second microarray experiment (named individual experiment). These two different pooling strategies can partly minimize the genetic variation among different genotypes. Dye swaps were applied in each biological replicate.

Project description:According to a previous study on the microscopic examination of stem barks in ramie, bast fibers from different parts of stem bark showed distinct differences at the developmental level: specifically, the barks in the top part of stem (TPS) did not initiate fiber growth, whereas barks in the middle part of stem (MPS) had a large number of fibers with thickening secondary walls. We have performed the phosphoproteome analysis for the tissues of TPS and MPS, and then carried out the comparison of phosphorylation level of proteins between two tissues, thereby to identified differentially phosphorylated proteins. These datasets represent the raw UHPLC spectra for phosphoproteome of ramie TPS and MPS.

Project description:The bark represents the outer protective layer of trees. It contains high concentrations of antimicrobial extractives, in addition to regular wood polymers. It represents a huge underutilized side stream in forestry, but biotechnological valorization is hampered by a lack of knowledge on microbial bark degradation. Many fungi are efficient lignocellulose degraders, and here, spruce bark degradation by five species, Dichomitus squalens, Rhodonia placenta, Penicillium crustosum, Trichoderma sp. B1, and Trichoderma reesei, was mapped, by continuously analyzing chemical changes in the bark over six months. The study reveals how fungi from different phyla degrade bark using diverse strategies, regarding both wood polymers and extractives, where toxic resin acids were degraded by Basidiomycetes but unmodified/tolerated by Ascomycetes. Proteome analyses of the white-rot D. squalens revealed several proteins, with both known and unknown functions, that were specifically upregulated during growth on bark. This knowledge can accelerate improved utilization of an abundant renewable resource.

Project description:Comparison of transcriptomes from bark, developing xylem and xylem of P. radiata saplings exposed to 0 or 1mg of Ethephon in lanolin for 1 or 8 weeks We developed an oligonucleotide microarray using sequences (mostly from Pinus taeda) from public sequence databases. These sequences were reconstituted into a non-redundant database by CAP3 assembly and used as templates for automated design of 60-mer oligonucleotide probes through eArray, AgilentM-bM-^@M-^Ys online facility. The microarray slides, manufactured by Agilent, were used to monitor gene expression in an Ethephon-induction experiment. Ethephon was dispersed in lanolin paste and applied in a 3 cm band near the base of the stem of 2-year old Pinus radiata saplings. RNA was extracted from bark, cambial region, also known as M-bM-^@M-^\developing xylemM-bM-^@M-^], and xylem tissues exposed for 1 or 8 weeks to Ethephon. The transcriptomes from these extracts were compared by hybridization onto the All-Pinus microarray slides. Statistically significant differentially expressed genes identified by limma (Linear Models for Microarray Data) were subsequently analysed by singular enrichment analysis through the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) portal. Results revealed that bark, cambial region and xylem generate mostly mutually exclusive cohorts of genes and Gene Ontology (GO) classes. Ethephon induction led to the upregulation of xylem genes related to the metabolism of phenylpropanoids and flavonoids and to defence responses, specifically, fungal/insect attack and oxidative stress. Independent validation of the microarray data for five genes was obtained by quantitative RT-PCR. The results are also interpreted in reference to gross and microscopic morphological changes. These results confirm the utility of the All-Pinus microarray for transcriptomic research in P. radiata. Series of 2-color, 2 condition experiments in 12 180k arrays. Main comparison is within tissues exposed to 0 [control] or 1 mg Ethephon. 2nd level of comparison is between tissues [bark, xylem scraping, xylem]. Third level of comparison is between time [1 or 8 week exposure]. One slide is hybridized with cRNA generated from control and treated tissues with the same duration of exposure to Ethephon. Two biological replicates [each biological rep is a 2 y old cutting propagated clone] for treated plants whilst control consists of RNA pooled, in equal proportions [estimated by UV absorbance], from 2 untreated biological replicates.]. Dyes used for each sample are indicated in sample description.

Project description:Agaricomycetes produce the most efficient enzyme systems to degrade wood and the most complex morphological structures in the fungal kingdom. Despite decades-long interest in their genetic bases, the evolution and functional diversity of both wood-decay and fruiting body formation are incompletely known.Here, we perform comparative genomic and transcriptomic analyses of wood-decay and fruiting body development in Auriculariopsis ampla and Schizophyllum commune (Schizophyllaceae), species with secondarily simplified morphologies and enigmatic wood-decay strategy and weak pathogenicity to woody plants. The plant cell wall degrading enzyme repertoires of Schizophyllaceae are transitional between those of white rot species and less efficient wood-degraders such as brown rot or mycorrhizal fungi. Rich repertoires of suberinase and tannase genes were found in both species, with tannases restricted to Agaricomycetes that preferentially colonize bark-covered wood, suggesting potential complementation of their weaker wood-decaying abilities and adaptations to wood colonization through the bark. Fruiting body transcriptomes of A. ampla and S. commune revealed a high rate of divergence in developmental gene expression, but also several genes with conserved developmental expression, including novel transcription factors and small-secreted proteins, some of the latter might represent fruiting body effectors. Taken together, our analyses highlighted novel aspects of wood-decay and fruiting body development in a widely distributed family of mushroom-forming fungi.

Project description:We performed a transcriptome analysis of interior spruce (Picea glauca x engelmannii) bark response to weevil (Pissodes strobi) feeding using 21.8K spruce microarray (that contains 21.8 thousand unique transcripts). This microarray study revealed a large rearrangement of the interior spruce bark transcriptome in response to weevil feeding involving differential expression of close to 20% of the studied transcriptome. RNA was isolated from the bark of interior spruce exposed to weevil feeding and from the bark of untreated trees at three time points (6 hours, 2 days and 2 weeks). Four independent biological replicates were included for treatment and control at each time point. Four hybridizations were performed for treatment and control comparison within each time point (6 hours, 2 days, 2 weeks) and one hybridization was performed for each comparison between time points for both treatment and control (total 18 hybridizations/slides).

Project description:Wood stiffness is the most important wood quality trait of forest trees for structural timber production. We investigated genes differentially transcribed in radiate pine trees with distinct wood stiffness using bulked segregant analysis (BSA) and cDNA microarrays. Transcript accumulation in earlywood (EW) and latewood (LW) of high (HS) and low stiffness (LS) trees in two progeny trials was compared. Radiata pine trees used for microarray experiment were selected from two progeny trials planted at Flynn and Kromelite, Australia. Based on the IML-based MOE measurement, five families with highest and lowest MOE each were selected from each trial, which represented two segregant populations with contrasting wood stiffness. Two individuals from each selected family were further sampled. Developing xylem tissues of selected trees in Flynn trial were sampled in spring (October) and autumn (April), representing earlywood (EW) and latewood (LW) of juvenile aged trees, respectively. Collection of xylem tissues from Kromelite trial was arranged in summer (late November) when latewood (LW) was formed. The xylem tissues were scraped at breast height with a sharp chisel after the bark was removed. In Flynn trial EW and LW tissues were collected from the same sampled trees on opposite sides of the trunk. Transcript accumulation was compared in trees with highest (HS) and lowest stiffness (LS) using xylem samples from Flynn collected in spring (EW) and autumn (LW), as well as Kromelite in summer (LW), respectively. Bulked segregant analysis (BSA) was used for the experiment design. Total RNA samples extracted from the five trees with HS were pooled at equal amount, and compared to the bulked five individuals with LS. This pooling strategy can partly minimize the genetic variation among different genotypes. Dye swaps were applied in each biological replicate.
