Project description:High-resolution temporal transcriptomic analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana leaves during infection by Pseudomonas syringae DC3000 and DC3000hrpA-thaliana
Project description:Arabidopsis thaliana (Col-0) plants were treated with BABA and gene expression differences to control plants were monitored after dip-inoculation with Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato DC3000. Keywords: transcript profiling, response to BABA-induced priming and infection
Project description:The amino acid cysteine was repeatedly shown to be implicated in the plants stress response. This project aims to elucidate which effect cysteine has on the proteome of Arabidopsis. Treatment of Arabidopsis thaliana seedling cultures with cysteine resulted in distinct proteomic changes. To further investigate on the role of cysteine metabolism and associated proteins during biotic stress, the proteomic response of Arabidopsis thaliana leaves inoculated with the plant pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 was monitored.
Project description:In order to better understand the transcriptional networks triggered by pathogen inoculation, we monitored gene expression in leaves of mutant Arabidopsis plants, inoculated with Pseudomonas syringae ES4326 and wild type Col-0 plants grown in parallel. Individual leaves were injected in the morning using a needle-less syringe with 10E5 cfu cm-2 PsmES4326 (suspended in 5 mM MgSO4). For the wild type, leaves were also mock treated with 5 mM MgSO4. Leaves were harvested 24 hours later. Plants were grown in pots with BM-2 soil (Berger Peat Moss Ltd, Quebec, Canada) at a density of 9 plants per pot and kept at 22 degrees Celsius with 75% humidity and a 12 hour day length. Keywords: Expression profilling by array
Project description:This study evaluates the transcriptome of Arabidopsis thaliana infected with the Pseudomonas syringae strain DC3000 cor- carrying the type three secretion system effector HopBB1
Project description:ra04-07_pgpr - profiling of the pgpr induced systemic resistance (isr) - Experiment 1 : Which genes are up- or down-regulated in Arabidopsis thaliana cultivated in vitro with increased lateral root development in response to Phyllobacterium STM196 inoculation. Experiment 2 : Which genes are up- or down-regulated during the ISR triggered by a rhizobacteria, in comparison with those affected by a pathogenic interaction. Experiment 3 : which genes are specifically induced or repressed in Arabidopsis thaliana by inoculation of the soil with a PGPR vs a bacteria that has the ability to trigger nodule formation in a Legume. - Seeds were sawn on 0.8% (W/V) agar mineral medium (see below). 4 days after storage in the dark at 4degreeC, seedling were cultivated 6 days in a growth chamber (16 h daily, 20-22degreeC) and then transferred on soil inoculated or not with 107 cfu.g-1 of Bradyrhizobium strain ORS278. Three weeks later, 3 leaves per plant were infiltrated with a suspension of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (2.105 cfu.ml-1) or with MgSO4 10 mM alone for control plants. Infiltrated leaves were collected 24h later. Keywords: normal vs rnai mutant comparaison,treated vs untreated comparison
Project description:Ubiquitin signalling plays an indispensable role in plant immune signalling. Pathogen infection leads to rapid increases in the ubiquitinated proteome. Here, we identified ubiquitinated proteins and ubiquitination sites in Arabidopsis thaliana leaf tissue infected with the virulent pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. maculicola ES4326. Leaves of the Col-0 cultivar were pressure infiltrated with 2X107 cfu/ml of pathogen and samples harvested 24 hours post-inoculation.
Project description:This study investigates extent and functional significance of alternative splicing in Arabidopsis thaliana defense against the bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato (Pst). We have provided a detailed characterization of the Arabidopsis thaliana transcriptional response to Pseudomonas syringae infection in both susceptible and resistant hosts. We carried out two independent inoculation experiments (biological replicates) for each treatment. Col-0 is susceptible to virulent Pst DC3000 but has a functional RPS4 resistance gene effective against DC3000 expressing AvrRps4
Project description:This study evaluates the transcriptome of four genotypes of Arabidopsis thaliana infected at the seedling stage with the Pseudomonas syringae strain DC3000 cor-.
