Project description:The nuclei of Glycine max from different tissues were collected. The samples were: soybean seed mid-maturation stage (10mm), seed late cotyledon stage (5mm), seed early cotyledon stage (3mm), seed heart stage (1mm), soybean green pods without seeds (stage), soybean flower bud (early flowering stage), soybean shoot apical meristem (stage), soybean trifoliate leaf (R5 stage), and soybean true leave (stage). The library construction was performed applying 10 Genomics technology.

Project description:The transition to flowering is characterized by a shift of the shoot apical meristem (SAM) from leaf production to the initiation of a floral meristem. In this study, we addressed the nature of SAM gene networks involved in the early floral initiation process in the crop legume soybean. Unique aspects (such as pod development and nitrogen fixation) of legume development make them appealing for plant development studies. Soybean, a major oilseed crop, possesses varied maturity groups; hence, understanding and unravelling initial transition control has implications in manipulating crop yield. To this end, we performed global gene expression analysis using Affymetrix® soybean GeneChip® with RNA isolated from micro-dissected soybean SAMs at various time points after plants were shifted from long-day to short-day growth conditions. Analysis of the resulting microarray data revealed a total of 331 transcripts that have differential expression profiles. Intriguingly, about 20% of the transcripts affected by the switch in the development program have orthologs reported to be responsive to abscisic acid (ABA), suggesting an increase in ABA levels in the SAM during this developmental change. A subsequent immunoassay verified this, thereby implicating its possible function as an endogenous signal during the floral evocation process. The striking occurrence of abiotic stress-related transcripts, including trehalose metabolism genes, in SAMs during the early transition to floral meristems points to an overlap of abiotic stress and floral signalling pathways in soybean. In addition, other hormones - auxin, jasmonic acid and brassinosteroids - and a number of candidate protein kinases may also act in the signalling process prior to or concurrently with the induction of the putative floral homeiotic transcripts. This indicates that molecular events mediated by multiple hormonal pathways are part of the mechanism employed by soybean to regulate the floral transition process.

Project description:The floral transition in maize represents a pivotal developmental switch that determines flowering time, environmental adaptation, and yield-related traits. However, the molecular mechanisms governing shoot apical meristem reprogramming and cell identity changes during this process remain poorly understood. By integrating time-course bulk RNA-seq, single-cell transcriptomics, chromatin accessibility, and transcription factor binding profiles, we construct a spatiotemporal molecular framework of the maize shoot apical meristem floral transition. Our analyses reveal global transcriptional reprogramming accompanied by pronounced cell type-specific regulation dynamics. At a global level, our transcriptional-level inference suggests that pathways associated with chromatin remodeling, environmental response, and reproductive development are sequentially activated, based mainly on transcriptional-level inference. We further identify a ZmMADS69-ZmRap2.7-ZMM4 regulatory module that fine-tunes the floral transition within the shoot apical meristem. At single-cell resolution, we find that the floral transition is not driven by a uniform transcriptional switch, but instead emerges from the coordinated action of spatially distinct shoot apical meristem domains. Through differential expression, trajectory, and co-expression module analyses, we further identify previously unrecognized roles for the inflorescence regulators UNBRANCHED2 and UNBRANCHED3 in promoting the floral transition, suggesting that they coordinate floral induction with subsequent inflorescence development. Our study establishes a comprehensive spatiotemporal regulatory framework for maize floral transition, providing mechanistic insights into shoot apical meristem reprogramming and offering a foundation for identifying new regulators to improve maize adaptation and yield.
