Project description:Chinese soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) cultivars Rsmv1 and Ssmv1 were used for soybean mosaic virus (SMV) resistance genes screening. The Rsmv1 cultivar was highly-resistant to SMV but the Ssmv1 cultivar was highly-susceptible. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying SMV inoculation and identified distinct expression genes between Rsmv1 and Ssmv1.
Project description:Transcriptional changes in soybean plants infected with Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) was assessed at 7, 14 and 21 days post inoculation (dpi). Keywords: Time course
Project description:Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase (MAPKKK) assume a pivotal position within the MAPK cascade signaling pathway that converts external stimuli into intracellular responses, and plays a central role in adaptation and resistance to biotic and abiotic stress. Only a limited number of researches have reported that MAPKKK conducted on regulating the resistance to soybeans mosaic viruses (SMV). Here, we identified a MAPKKK 2-like gene named as GmMEKK2 from SMV resistance cultivar. Overexpression of GmMEKK2 in soybean not only reduced SMV content but also decreased the disease index of virus. Importantly, overexpression of GmMEKK2 mitigated the yield loss after SMV inoculation and improved the yield-related traits of soybean. These demonstrated that GmMEKK2 had a favorable role in SMV resistance. This study explored the functions of GmMEKK2 in soybean and provided an assertive solution for effectively improving SMV resistance.
Project description:We profiled the global gene and miRNA expression in soybean following infections by three different Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) isolates, L (G2 strain), LRB (G2 strain) and G7 (G7 strain) by small RNA (sRNA)-seq, degradome-seq and as well as a genome-wide transcriptome analysis.
Project description:Agilent 4x44k tobacco micro array of wild type tobacco (WT) and whole tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) containing transgenic tobacco plants. The transgenic plants before resistance break (BRB-6 weeks), after resistance break (ARB-8 weeks) and wild type tobacco plants infected with TMV (TMVi-9weeks) leaves were analyzed. Three biological replicates were performed for each sample.
