Project description:Tetraploid emmer Triticum turgidum subsp. dicoccum is one of the first wheat species to be domesticated. Emmer shares many pathogen species with modern durum wheat (Triticum turgidum subsp. durum) and hexaploid bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Domesticated emmer is considered a highly valuable source of potentially novel disease resistance genes that can be introduced into modern wheat varieties, however, large gaps remain in our understanding of the basic immune responses of emmer to the most common wheat pathogens. In this work we describe the transcriptional response of emmer to single and mixed pathogen species infections with the ascomycete Zymoseptoria tritici, and the basidiomycete Puccinia graminis. In doing so, we here uncover unique patterns in the response of emmer to a more complex pathogen population with mixed species infections.

Project description:Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum) is a major cereal and staple in the semi-arid regions of the Mediterranean Basin. It originates from BBAA wild tetraploid domesticated in Neolithic era, later evolving to domesticated emmer and then to up to 11 T. turgidum subspecies, including durum wheat landraces and modern cultivars. Tetraploid wheat is the donor of the A and B genomes of hexaploid bread wheat (DDAABB), representing therefore a valuable source of genetic variability and beneficial alleles for both durum and bread wheat breeding. After assembling the Platinum-quality reference genome for Svevo durum wheat cultivar coupling PACBIO HiFi long read 35X sequencing with BIONANO Optical Mapping and Hi-C conformation capture, a complete and accurate gene annotation was then obtained by coupling Illumina RNASeq and Nanopore Isoseq sequencing from multiple tissues. The expression of 68,154 high confidence genes together with more than 100,000 low confidence, TE-related or long non-coding genes was investigated on 30 diverse tissues from grain, root, leaf, and spike samples across multiple developmental time points to create a transcriptional atlas of durum wheat development.

The gene expression was investigated in root and shoot samples collected from plants grown under control condition or subjected to heat, salinity and osmotic stresses or to nitrogen application to create a transcriptional atlas of durum wheat response to abiotic stresses.
