Project description:Lisbon lemon trees were grafted with budwood infected with the citrus greening bacterium, 'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus', or control budwood, and leaf samples were collected every two weeks post graft for LC/MS analysis. This project has shotgun proteomics data for leaf samples from 5 control and 5 CLas grafted trees at the 14 week post graft timepoint.

This project has shotgun proteomics data for leaf samples from 5 control and 5 CLas grafted trees at the 10 week post graft timepoint.

Project description:The use of Biological Control Agents (BCAs) to cope diseases has received considerable attention owing to its high efficiency and environmental safety. The aim of our study was to investigate the potential role of the Pseudomonas mediterranea pre-treatments in the response of lemon [Citrus limon (L.) Burm. f.] against mal secco, this being a devastating citrus disease caused by the fungus Plenodomus tracheiphilus. RNAseq analysis revealed that the fungus induced a marked reprogramming of the transcriptome, but P. Mediterranea pre-treatments strongly reduced lemon leaf transcriptome modifications and limited the amount of the fungus DNA inside the plant tissue. Furthermore, P. mediterranea prevented the down regulation of the genes involved in the effector triggered immunity (ETI) and the deregulation of genes involved in the main phytohormone’s biosynthesis and perception. As far as we know, this work represents the first report on the analysis of P. tracheiphilus-lemon plant-BCA interaction at molecular level.
Project description:Samples from fruit juice vesicle tissue from three lemon genotypes (Frost Lisbon, Faris "sour" and Faris "sweet") differing in fruit acidity were compared at two developmental timepoints (immature, mature). Faris lemon appears to be a graft chimera with the L2 layer derived from normal acid lemon and layer L1 from Millsweet limetta or a closely related genotype. Fruit of Faris sour and Faris sweet grew on different branches of the same tree, with sour fruit developing on branches with L1 and L2 from acid lemon. genotype: Faris sweet lemon - developmental stage: PO:0007009 FF.01 fruit size 30%,(3-replications); genotype: Faris sweet lemon - developmental stage: PO:0007050 FR.03 late stage of fruit ripening,(3-replications); genotype: Faris acid lemon - developmental stage: PO:0007009 FF.01 fruit size 30%,(3-replications); genotype: Faris acid lemon - developmental stage: PO:0007050 FR.03 late stage of fruit ripening,(3-replications); genotype: Frost Lisbon lemon - developmental stage: PO:0007009 FF.01 fruit size 30%,(3-replications); genotype: Frost Lisbon lemon - developmental stage: PO:0007050 FR.03 late stage of fruit ripening,(3-replications) PLEXdb (http://www.plexdb.org) has submitted this series at GEO on behalf of the original contributor, Mikeal L. Roose. The equivalent experiment is CT1 at PLEXdb.
