Project description:To obtain genes expression in different parts of 84k poplar stems, transcriptome sequencing was performed using Illumina Novaseq 6000 second-generation sequencing platform from Shanghai BIOZERON Co. Ltd (www.biozeron.com). Selecte three stem segments of plants REPEAT 1, 2 and 3 with good and similar growth to use: 2nd-3rd internodes (poplar stem top: PST1, PST2, PST3); 9th-10th internodes (poplar stem middle: PSM1, PSM2, PSM3); 14th-15th internodes (poplar stem bottom: PSB1, PSB2, PSB3). [Or the three repeating organisms are also called poplar A, B, C. From top to bottom, the three parts of the stem are also called stem 1, 2, 3.]
Project description:Poplar 84K (Populus alba x P. tremula var. glandulosa) is a fast-growing poplar hybrid. Originated in South Korea, this hybrid has been extensively cultivated in northern China. Due to the economic and ecological importance of this hybrid and high transformability, we now report the de novo sequencing and assembly of a male individual of poplar 84K using PacBio and Hi-C technologies. The final reference nuclear genome (747.5 Mb) has a contig N50 size of 1.99 Mb and a scaffold N50 size of 19.6 Mb. Complete chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes were also assembled from the sequencing data. Based on similarities to the genomes of P. alba var. pyramidalis and P. tremula, we were able to identify two subgenomes, representing 356 Mb from P. alba (subgenome A) and 354 Mb from P. tremula var. glandulosa (subgenome G). The phased assembly allowed us to detect the transcriptional bias between the two subgenomes, and we found that the subgenome from P. tremula displayed dominant expression in both 84K and another widely used hybrid, P. tremula x P. alba. This high-quality poplar 84K genome will be a valuable resource for poplar breeding and for molecular biology studies.
Project description:Transcriptome analysis was performed on the sixth leaves of Populus alba × P. glandulosa. The twelve samples were: four PagSUPa overexpression (OE) line 2 samples 2-1-L6, 2-2-L6, 2-3-L6 and 2-4-L6, four PagSUPa OE line 7 samples 7-1-L6, 7-2-L6, 7-3-L6 and 7-4-L6, four nontransgenic control (CK) samples CK-1-L6, CK-2-L6, CK-3-L6, CK-4-L6 . And the differential genes between PagSUPa OE and CK groups were identified and compared, which helps to reveal the molecular mechanism of PagSUPa directly suppresses the expression of phragmoplast orienting and positioning genes PagPOK1 and PagPOK2, and impairs cytokinesis and cell wall organization.
Project description:Here we applied a novel approach to isolate nuclei from complex plant tissues (https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0251149), to dissect the transcriptome profiling of the hybrid poplar (Populus tremula × alba) vegetative shoot apex at single-cell resolution.
Project description:Microarray technology was used to assess transcriptome changes in poplar (Populus alba L.) under a realistic simulation of increased UV-B radiation. Plants were UV-Bbe (UV-B biologically effective radiation) supplemented with a dose of 6 kJ/m2/day for 12 hours per day and allowed to recover during the night. Poplar plants were UV-B treated using a refined controlled environment able to guarantee a realistic simulation of natural conditions, especially for light parameters such as presence of background UV-B radiation for control plants and balanced PAR/UV-A/UV-B ratio. A time course experiment was planned to look both at the rapid and delayed response of poplar to UVB; two time points after 3 h (T3h) and 30 h (6th hour of the third day of treatment, T30h) were considered. 4 independent biological replicates were analysed for each time point. Competitive hybridisations were carried out using the PICME 28K microarray. Keywords: Time course experiment, stress response
