Project description:Enterobacter sp. SA187 is a facultative endophytic bacterium conferring multi-abiotic stress tolerance to various plant hosts. Upon interaction with plant tissues, a significant proportion of the typically yellow SA187 lose pigmentation. This phenotypic shift becomes more prominent with extended host plant colonization and under stress conditions, such as salinity. To explore the underlying mechanisms and ecological significance of this variation, we employed genome sequencing, comparative genomics, transcriptomics, and metabolic characterization. In all white SA187 variants, weidentified consistent point mutations in the rpoS gene, which encodes a global regulatory sigma factor. These rpoS loss-of-function mutations lead to alterations in gene regulation, affecting growth, morphology, biofilm formation, motility, oxidative stress responses and carotenoid production. Notably, the rpoS mutants demonstrated enhanced adaptability from a free living to an endophytic life style. Whereas the desert soil is characterized by highly alkaline conditions, the apoplast of the host plant is an acidic environment accompanied with the availability of distinct carbon sources. RpoS mutants allow life in the acidic and sucrose-rich apoplastic compartment, underscoring the role of genetic variation in bacterial adaptation to colonize plants.

Project description:We selected wild A. venetum of four distributed regions (jinta county, minqin county, hangjinqi and baicheng) as the test materials in the study. Based on the study of community composition, population genetic diversity and soil environmental properties of wild A. venetum, physiological characteristics, transcriptomics and proteomics analysis of A. venetum under salt stress, and key regulatory proteins and genes of A. venetum salt tolerance were measured and identified to reveal the ecological adaptability of wild A. venetum and underlying mechanisms in response to salt stress. The study is beneficial to promote the protection and rational development and utilization of germplasm resources of wild A. venetum, and is of great significance to the development of national pharmacology and the construction of ecological civilization in China.

Project description:The presence of genetic groups of the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae in soil is shaped by its adaptability to specific soil and habitat types, and by soil insect populations. Although the entomopathogenic life style of this fungus is well studied, its saprophytic life style has received little consideration. While a set of functionally related genes can be commonly expressed for the adaptability of this fungus to different environments (insect cuticle, insect blood and root exudates), a different subset of genes is also expected for each environment. In order to increase the knowledge of the potential use of M. anisopliae as a rhizosphere competent organism, in this study we evaluated the genetic expression of this fungus while growing on plant root exudates in laboratory conditions during a time course. One fungal strain: Metarhizium anisopliae ARSEF 2575; Five time conditions: 0h, 1h, 4h, 8h, 12h; Five-condition experiment: Time0h vs. Time1h, Time1h vs. Time4h, Time4h vs. Time8h, Time8h vs. Time12h and Time12h vs. Time0h. Two Biological replicates: independently grown and harvested. Three replicates per array. Dye-swap was performed on replicate 2.

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a highly adaptable bacterium which thrives in a broad range of ecological niches and can infect multiple hosts as diverse as plants, nematodes and mammals. In humans, it is an important opportunistic pathogen. This wide adaptability correlates with its broad genetic diversity. In this study, we used a deep-sequencing approach to explore the complement of small RNAs (sRNAs) in P. aeruginosa as the number of such regulatory molecules previously identified in this organism is relatively low, considering its genome size, phenotypic diversity and adaptability. We have performed a comparative analysis of PAO1 and PA14 strains which share the same host range but differ in pathogenicity, PA14 being considerably more virulent in several model organisms. Altogether, we have identified more than 150 novel candidate sRNAs and validated a third of them by Northern blotting. Interestingly, a number of these novel sRNAs are strain-specific or showed strain-specific expression, strongly suggesting that they could be involved in determining specific phenotypic traits.

Project description:Due to the wide application of rare earth oxides nanoparticles in different fields, they will inevitably be released into the environment, and their potential toxicity and ecological risks in the environment have become a concern of people. Yttrium oxide nanoparticles are important members of rare earth oxides nanoparticles. The molecular mechanism of its influence on plant growth and development and plant response to them is unclear. In this study, we found that yttrium oxide nanoparticles above 2 mM significantly inhibited the growth of Arabidopsis seedlings. Using the Arabidopsis marker lines reflecting auxin signal, it was found that the treatment of yttrium oxide nanoparticles led to the disorder of auxin signal in root cells: the auxin signal in quiescent center cells and columella stem cells decreased; while the auxin signal in the stele cells was enhanced. In addition, trypan blue staining showed that yttrium oxide nanoparticles caused the death of root cells. Transcriptome sequencing analysis showed that yttrium oxide nanoparticles specifically inhibited the expression of lignin synthesis related genes, activated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway, and enhanced ethylene and ABA signaling pathways in plants. This study revealed the phytotoxicity of yttrium oxide nanoparticles at the molecular level, and provided a new perspective at the molecular level for plants to respond to rare earth oxide stress.
