Project description:In monocots other than the cereals maize and rice, the repertoire and diversity of microRNAs (miRNAs) and the populations of phased, secondary, small interfering RNAs (phasiRNAs) are poorly characterized. To remedy this, we sequenced small RNAs (sRNAs) from vegetative and dissected inflorescence tissue in 28 phylogenetically diverse monocots and from several early-diverging angiosperm lineages, as well as publicly available data from 10 additional monocot species. We annotated miRNAs, siRNAs and phasiRNAs across the monocot phylogeny, identifying miRNAs apparently lost or gained in the grasses relative to other monocot families, as well as a number of tRNA fragments misannotated as miRNAs. Using our miRNA database cleaned of these misannotations, we identified conservation at the 8th, 9th, 19th and 3’ end positions that we hypothesize are signatures of selection for processing, targeting, or Argonaute sorting. We show that 21-nt reproductive phasiRNAs are far more numerous in grass genomes than other monocots. Based on sequenced monocot genomes and transcriptomes, DICER-LIKE 5 (DCL5), important to 24-nt phasiRNA biogenesis, likely originated via gene duplication before the diversification of the grasses. This curated database of phylogenetically diverse monocot miRNAs, siRNAs, and phasiRNAs is the largest collection to date, and should facilitate continued exploration of small RNA diversification in flowering plants.

Project description:Novel resources to investigate leaf plasmodesmata formation in C3 and C4 monocots
| PRJNA1083800 | ENA
Project description:Plasmodesmata (PD) are nanochannels that facilitate cell-to-cell transport in plants. More productive and photosynthetically efficient C4 plants form more PD at the mesophyll (M)-bundle sheath (BS) interface in their leaves than their less efficient C3 relatives. In C4 leaves, PD play an essential role in facilitating the rapid metabolite exchange between the M and BS cells to operate a biochemical CO2 concentrating mechanism, which increases the CO2 partial pressure at the site of Rubisco in the BS cells and hence photosynthetic efficiency. The genetic mechanism controlling PD formation in C3 and C4 leaves is largely unknown, especially in monocot crops, due to the technical challenge of quantifying these nanostructures with electron microscopy. To address this issue, we have generated stably transformed lines of Oryza sativa (rice, C3) and Setaria viridis (setaria, C4) with fluorescent protein-tagged PD to build the first spatiotemporal atlas of leaf pit field (cluster of PD) density in monocots without the need for electron microscopy. Across leaf development, setaria had consistently more PD connections at the M-BS wall interface than rice while the difference in M-M pit field density varied. While light was a critical trigger of PD formation, cell type and function determined leaf pit field density. Complementary temporal mRNA sequencing and gene co-expression network analysis revealed that the pattern of pit field density correlated with differentially expressed PD-associated genes and photosynthesis-related genes. PD-associated genes identified from our co-expression network analysis are related to cell wall expansion, translation and chloroplast signalling.

Project description:The evolution of gene body methylation (gbM) and the underlying mechanism is poorly understood. By pairing the largest collection of CHROMOMETHYLTRANSFERASE (CMT) sequences (773) and methylomes (72) across land plants and green algae we provide novel insights into the evolution of gbM and its underlying mechanism. The angiosperm- and eudicot-specific whole genome duplication events gave rise to what are now referred to as CMT1, 2 and 3 lineages. CMTε, which includes the eudicot-specific CMT1 and 3, and orthologous angiosperm clades, is essential for the perpetuation of gbM in angiosperms, implying that gbM evolved at least 236 MYA. Independent losses of CMT1, 2 and 3 in eudicots, and CMT2 and CMTmonocot+magnoliid in monocots suggests overlapping or fluid functional evolution. The resulting gene family phylogeny of CMT transcripts from the most diverse sampling of plants to date redefines our understanding of CMT evolution and its evolutionary consequences on DNA methylation.
