Project description:C4 photosynthesis was evolved from ancestral C3 photosynthesis by recruited pre-existed genes to perform new functions. Enzymes and transporters required for C4 metabolic pathway has been well documented, however, transcriptional factors (TFs) that regulate those C4 metabolic genes is poorly understood, in particular, how the TF regulatory network of C4 metabolic genes was re-wired, and the involved metabolic functions of those TFs along the evolution of C4 photosynthesis remained unknown. Here, by using RNA-Seq data from growth condition that reported to have effect on C4 photosynthesis, we constructed the TF regulatory network for four evolutionarily closely related species in the genus Flaveria, which represent different stages of the evolution of C4 photosynthesis, namely, C3, type I C3-C4, type II C3-C4 and C4. Our results show that four TFs are conserved along the evolution whose function either relate to stress response or light response. TFs regulating C4 core genes in C3 species involved in functions belong to RNA regulation and nitrogen metabolism, and that in both intermediate species and C4 species involved in photosynthesis and light responsiveness. Moreover, the TF-network of C4 core metabolic genes has the highest network density in type I C3-C4 species and C4 species when consider the fragment of TF-regulatory network that up-regulated under low CO2, suggesting that TFs regulating C4 genes were recruited to photosynthesis at type I C3-C4 both in involved functions and network density. Our results provide a valuable resource for studying molecular regulatory mechanisms underlying C4 metabolic process.

Project description:circadian clock during the evolution of C4 photosynthesis

Project description:Physiological and molecular evidences have shown earlier that low CO2 might have been a major driving force during the evolution of C4 photosynthesis, not only being a selection pressure but also as a signaling agent. However, a mechanistic linkage between low CO2 and C4 emergence is missing. In this study, using transcriptomics study in model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, we demonstrated that under long-term low CO2 treatments, the up-regulation of C4 related genes were linked to the up-regulation of genes involved in photorespiration, nitrogen assimilation and glycolysis. Plants under low CO2 also showed altered d13C. The carbonic anhydrase (CA), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), glutamine oxoglutarate aminotransferase (GS-GOGAT), which are required to reassimilate ammonia, were up-regulated under low CO2. Furthermore, under low CO2, genes involved in PEP regeneration from glycolysis were up-regulated while pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase (PPDK) was down-regulated, suggesting a route of PEP regeneration from glycolysis. All these results suggested that under long-term low CO2 treatment, the selection pressure to recapture the released ammonia from the increased photorespiration might have promoted the evolution of mechanisms for generation PEP from glycolysis and enhancement of enzymes catalyzing formation of oxaloacetate, one intermediate which can accept ammonia residue. These adjustments in metabolism provide a mechanistic linkage between low CO2 and evolution of C4 photosynthesis.

Project description:Photosynthesis supports life on Earth but the regulatory architecture associated with photosynthesis gene expression is poorly understood. Most crops use either C3 or C4 photosynthesis with the latter allowing significantly higher efficiencies as well as improved water and nitrogen use. Here we use DNAse-SEQ to define >1 million transcription factor binding sites in leaves of grasses that either operate C3 or C4 photosynthesis and that are consistent with significant differences in the modes of gene regulation between the kingdoms of life. Leaf samples were collected from seedlings to allow for comparison of regulatory interactions between species from the same (Zea mays and Sorghum bicolor) and different (Setaria italica) C4 lineages, as well as a C3 grass (Brachypodium distachyon) in order to investigate evolution of C4 photosynthetic gene expression. Additionally bundle sheath tissues were mechanically isolated from C4 species and analysed by DNAse-SEQ to identify DNA regulatory elements controlling cell-specific gene expression patterns.

Project description:C4 photosynthesis overpasses C3 by a higher photosynthetic rate, along with a higher water and nitrogen use efficiency. The establishment of C4 photosynthesis requires modification of ancestral C3 in both anatomical and metabolic aspects, both are involved in many functional pathways which have not been fully demonstrated. This study aims to illustrate overall functional changes along the evolution of C4 photosynthesis, with a purpose to gain an overall view of what are required for C4 photosynthesis. To achieve this, this study assembled chromosome scale of genome sequencing of five Flaveria species, representing gradual evolutionary stages of C4 photosynthesis from C3 to C3-C4 and to C4. Here, result showed that the genome size gradually increases from C3 to intermediate to C4 species, which ranges from 0.5 G to 1.87 G. The enlarged genomes are mainly from transposable elements, with the number of protein coding gene are comparable along evolution. The copy of C4 version CA1 and PEPC1, as well as PEPC-k gained extra one, two and five copies in C4 species F. trinervia as a result of tandem duplication, which plays a positive role for the emergency of C4 photosynthesis. Besides, the evolutionary pattern of C4 gene on transcript abundance are consistent with that on protein abundance, suggesting transcriptional regulation is a key factor for establishing C4 photosynthesis.

Project description:In multicellular systems changes to the patterning of gene expression drive modifications in cell function and trait evolution. One striking example is found in more than sixty plant lineages where compartmentation of photosynthesis between cell types allowed evolution of the efficient C4 pathway from the ancestral C3 state. The molecular events enabling this transition are unclear. We used single nuclei sequencing to generate a cell level expression atlas for C3 rice and C4 sorghum during photomorphogenesis. In both species a conserved cistrome was identified for each cell type and initiation of photosynthesis gene expression was conditioned by cell identity. Photosynthesis genes switching expression from mesophyll in rice to bundle sheath in sorghum acquire hallmarks of bundle sheath identity. The sorghum bundle sheath has also acquired gene networks associated with C3 guard cells. We conclude C4 photosynthesis is based on rewiring in cis that exapts cell identity networks of C3 plants.
