Project description:The goal of this project aims to decipher the molecular effects of high temperature on developing Cabernet Sauvignon berries. Using grapevine fruiting cuttings, control and heat-treated berries were sampled to conduct transcriptomic, proteomic and metabolomic analysis.

Project description:The abscisic acid (ABA) increase and auxin decline are both indicators of ripening initiation in grape berry, and norisoprenoid accumulation also start at around the onset of ripening. To investigate the transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation of the ABA and synthetic auxin 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) on norisoprenoid production, we performed time series GC-MS and RNA-seq analyses on Cabernet Sauvignon grape berries from pre-veraison to ripening. Higher levels of free norisoprenoids were found in ABA-treated mature berries in two consecutive seasons, and both free and total norisoprenoids were significantly increased by NAA in one season. The expression pattern of known norisoprenoid-associated genes in all samples and the up-regulation of specific alternative splicing isoforms of VviDXS and VviCRTISO in NAA-treated berries were predicted to contribute to it. Combined weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and promoter motif prediction analysis suggested that GATA26 and GATA28 could be potential regulators of norisoprenoid accumulation. Finally, the network analysis uncovered the interaction between previously identified switch genes, hormone-related genes and norisoprenoid-associated genes.
Project description:Berry skin total protein from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Semillon. Treatments were control (well-watered) versus restricted irrigation (water-deficit). Samples were taken from harvest-ripe whole berry clusters following a seasonal water deficit in treatment vines. A comparative analysis between the cultivars and treatments was performed. Associated dataset identifiers: GSE72421, PRJNA268857.
Project description:Three grapevines cultivars (Merlot, Cabernet-Sauvignon and Ugni Blanc) were infected by E. lata. The expression profiles of the wood part near the infection point were determined for both infected and non infected plant for each cultivars with Nimblegen microarrays vitis. Three plants were used for biological replicates. Comparisons between infected and non infected conditions allow, for each cultivars, the identifcation of genes which the expression is modified by E. lata.
