Project description:Background: The soil environment is responsible for sustaining most terrestrial plant life on earth, yet we know surprisingly little about the important functions carried out by diverse microbial communities in soil. Soil microbes that inhabit the channels of decaying root systems, the detritusphere, are likely to be essential for plant growth and health, as these channels are the preferred locations of new root growth. Understanding the microbial metagenome of the detritusphere and how it responds to agricultural management such as crop rotations and soil tillage will be vital for improving global food production. Methods: The rhizosphere soils of wheat and chickpea growing under + and - decaying root were collected for metagenomics sequencing. A gene catalogue was established by de novo assembling metagenomic sequencing. Genes abundance was compared between bulk soil and rhizosphere soils under different treatments. Conclusions: The study describes the diversity and functional capacity of a high-quality soil microbial metagenome. The results demonstrate the contribution of the microbiome from decaying root in determining the metagenome of developing root systems, which is fundamental to plant growth, since roots preferentially inhabit previous root channels. Modifications in root microbial function through soil management, can ultimately govern plant health, productivity and food security.

Project description:To identify key genes in the regulation of salt tolerance in the mangrove plant Bruguiera gymnorhiza, the transcriptome profiling under salt stress was carried out. Main roots and lateral roots were collected from the mangrove plants at 0, 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 h, 3 6 and 12 days after NaCl-treatment. Keywords: time course, stress response, root type comparison
Project description:Hernandia nymphaeifolia is an endangered mangrove associate with high ecological, ornamental, and medicinal values. Its special combination of glycophytic and halophytic characteristics provides an ideal system for investigating salt-responsive mechanisms that may be easily extended to genetic improvement of crops with high salt tolerance. However, little is known regarding salt-responsive mechanisms in H. nymphaeifolia. In this study, we posed gradient salt treatments on H. nymphaeifolia seedlings and investigated their physiological and transcriptional reprogramming in response to salinity stress. The results revealed that hyper-salinity stress posed more adverse impacts on leaf growth, cell integrity and photosynthetic performance of H. nymphaeifolia seedlings compared to those in growing in fresh water or low salt condition, mirroring its nature as a mangrove associate. Genes associated with osmolarity sensor and regulator, ROS scavenging and ion homeostasis were differentially expressed accordingly to alleviate the destructive effects. Furthermore, our results unraveled some pivotal kinases and proteins that regulate the synergistic expression of salt-responsive genes, which may act a key role in regulating the transcriptional remodeling upon salinity stress. These findings enrich our knowledge on the molecular mechanisms underlying the phenotypic plasticity of mangrove associates, and also provide valuable genetic resources for mangrove’s conservation and potential bioengineering application in agricultural field.
