Project description:Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) is the fifth most important cereal crop in the world. It is an annual C4 crop having a high biomass, used widely, and has a strong resistance to stress. Obviously, there are many benefits of planting sorghum on marginal soils such as saline-alkali land.

Project description:Salt stress, especially saline-alkali stress, has seriously negative effect on citrus production. Ziyang xiangcheng (Citrus junos Sieb.) (Cj) has been reported as a saline-alkali stress and iron deficiency tolerant citrus rootstock. However, the molecular mechanism of its saline-alkali stress tolerance is still not clear. Two citrus rootstocks and one navel orange scion, Cj, Poncirus trifoliate (Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf.) (Pt) and ‘Lane Late’ navel orange (Citrus sinensis (L.) Osb.) (LL), were used in this study. The grafted materials Cj+LL and Pt+LL grown in calcareous soil were used to identify genes and pathways responsive to saline-alkali stress using RNA-seq. The seedlings of Cj and Pt grown in the solutions with different gradient pH value were used to perform a supplement experiment. Comprehensively analyzing the data of RNA-seq, physiology and biochemistry, agronomic traits and mineral elements of Cj+LL, Pt+LL, Cj and Pt, several candidate pathways and genes were identified to be highly regulated under saline-alkali stress. Here, we propose citrate is important for the tolerance to iron deficiency and the jasmonate (JA) biosynthesis and signal transduction pathway may play a crucial role in tolerance to saline-alkali stress in citrus by interacting with other plant hormones, calcium signaling, ROS scavenging system and lignin biosynthesis.

Project description:Soil salination and alkalization are global problems impairing plant survival by disrupting REDOX homeostasis. Whether melatonin regulates REDOX homeostasis at nitrosative level, and thus affects plant saline-alkali tolerance remains unknown. In saline-alkali stress, excess nitric oxide (NO) causes nitrosative damage in tomato roots. This NO can be degraded by S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR), or stimulates caffeic acid O-methyltransferase (COMT) transcript for melatonin synthesis. Melatonin further feedback scavenges excess NO to alleviate nitrosative damage at the whole protein level, indicating by proteome S-nitrosylation. We target plasma membrane H+-ATPase 2 (HA2) and highlight that HA2 is S-nitrosylated at Cys206 in saline-alkali stress, reducing HA activity, H+ efflux, and tolerance by impairing its interaction with 14-3-3 protein 1 (TFT1). In agreement with these observations, COMT-mediated melatonin relieves the HA2 S-nitrosylation to recover its function and saline-alkali tolerance. Therefore, we propose NO and melatonin as a pair of REDOX switches to control HA2 S-nitrosylation and saline-alkali tolerance. Under natural saline-alkali conditions, tomato productivity can be improved by grafting with COMT-, GSNOR-, HA2-overexpression rootstocks or by genetic engineering non-nitrosylated HA2C206S mutants. Using melatonin-NO-HA2 module as a case, this study illuminates a novel molecular function of melatonin and relevant genetic engineering strategies in future agriculture.

Project description:<p>Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the effects of natural forage from different regions (saline-alkali and non-saline-alkali areas) on the rumen microbiota, muscle metabolites, and meat quality of Tibetan sheep. </p><p>Methods: Targeted and non-targeted metabolomics were used to comprehensively analyze both pasture and meat quality, metabolites.

Metabolomic analysis revealed significant accumulation of flavonoids and upregulation of amino acid metabolism in the HG group.

Furthermore, the natural saline-alkali forage altered the rumen fermentation patterns in Tibetan sheep, leading to a significant increase in the abundance of F082 and WCHB1-41, while significantly reducing the abundance of Prevotellaceae_UCG-003.

Project description:The fate of the carbon stocked in permafrost soils following global warming and permafrost thaw is of major concern in view of the potential for increased CH4 and CO2 emissions from these soils. Complex carbon compound degradation and greenhouse gas emissions are due to soil microbial communities, but their composition and functional potential in permafrost soils are largely unknown. Here, a 2 m deep permafrost and its overlying active layer soil were subjected to metagenome sequencing, quantitative PCR, and microarray analyses. The active layer soil and 2 m permafrost soil microbial community structures were very similar, with Actinobacteria being the dominant phylum. The two soils also possessed a highly similar spectrum of functional genes, especially when compared to other already published metagenomes. Key genes related to methane generation, methane oxidation and organic matter degradation were highly diverse for both soils in the metagenomic libraries and some (e.g. pmoA) showed relatively high abundance in qPCR assays. Genes related to nitrogen fixation and ammonia oxidation, which could have important roles following climatic change in these nitrogen-limited environments, showed low diversity but high abundance. The 2 m permafrost soil showed lower abundance and diversity for all the assessed genes and taxa. Experimental biases were also evaluated and showed that the whole community genome amplification technique used caused large representational biases in the metagenomic libraries. This study described for the first time the detailed functional potential of permafrost-affected soils and detected several genes and microorganisms that could have crucial importance following permafrost thaw. A 2m deep permafrost sample and it overlying active layer were sampled and their metagenome analysed. For microarray analyses, 8 other soil samples from the same region were used for comparison purposes.
