Project description:The pathogen Agrobacterium tumefaciens infects a broad range of plants, introducing the T-DNA into their genome. Contrary to all known bacterial phyto-pathogens, Agrobacterium lacks the hypersensitive response-inducing HRP genes although it introduces numerous proteins into the plant cell through a type IV secretion system. To understand the timing and extent of the plant transcriptional response to this unusual pathogen, we used an Arabidopsis 26-thousand gene oligonucleotide microarray. We inoculated Arabidopsis cell cultures with an oncogenic strain of Agrobacterium and analyzed four biological replicates to identify two robust sets of regulated genes, one induced and the other suppressed. In both cases, the response was distinct at 48 hours after infection, but not at 24 hours or earlier. The induced set includes genes encoding known defense proteins, the repressed set is enriched with genes characteristic of cell proliferation even though a growth arrest was not visible in the inoculated cultures. The analysis of the repressed genes revealed that the conserved upstream regulatory elements Frankiebox (a.k.a. “site II”) and Telobox are associated with the suppression of gene expression. The regulated gene sets should be useful in dissecting the signaling pathways in this plant-pathogen interaction. Keywords: Time-course of Agrobacterium infection

Project description:This study focuses on responses of the host plant to infection with Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Genome wide changes in gene expression were integrated with the alterations in metabolite levels three hours after inoculation of agrobacteria. Plants were infected with the virulent strain C58, harboring a T-DNA, or with strain GV3101, containing a disarmed Ti-plasmid. This allows discrimination between signals which derive from the bacterial pathogen and the T-DNA encoded genes.

Project description:This study focuses on responses of the host plant to infection and transformation with Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Genome wide changes in gene expression were integrated with the alterations in metabolite levels six days after inoculation of agrobacteria. Plants were infected with the virulent strain C58, harboring a T-DNA, or with strain GV3101, containing a disarmed Ti-plasmid. This allows discrimination between signals which derive from the bacterial pathogen and the T-DNA encoded genes.

Project description:Chromosome architecture plays a crucial role in bacterial adaptation, yet its direct impact remains unclear. Different bacterial species, and even strains within the same species, exhibit diverse chromosomal configurations, including a single circular or linear chromosome, two circular chromosomes, or a circular-linear combination. To investigate how these architectures shape bacterial behavior, we generated near-isogenic strains representing each configuration in Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58, an important soil bacterium widely used for plant genetic transformation. Strains with a single-chromosome architecture, whether linear or circular, exhibited faster growth, enhanced stress tolerance, and greater inter-strain competitiveness. In contrast, bipartite chromosome strains showed higher virulence gene expression and enhanced transient plant transformation efficiency, suggesting a pathogenic adaptation. Whole-transcriptome analysis revealed architecture-dependent gene expression patterns, underscoring the profound impact of chromosome organization on Agrobacterium fitness and virulence. These findings highlight how chromosome structure influences bacterial adaptation and shapes evolutionary trajectories.

Project description:This research focuses on the design, manufacturing and validation of a new Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 whole-genome tiling microarray platform for novel RNA transcript discovery. A whole-genome tiling microarray allows both annotated genes as well as previously unknown RNA transcripts to be detected and quantified at once. The Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 genome is re-acquired with next-generation sequencing and then used to design the tilinlg microarray with the thermodynamic analysis program Picky. Validations are performed by subjecting Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 under various growth conditions and then using the tling microarrays to verify expected gene expression patterns.
