Roopendra K, Priyanka, Chandra A, Akhter Y, Saxena S. Transcriptome scale analysis to decode the differential sucrose accumulation mechanisms in sugarcane under the effect of gibberellin. PHYSIOLOGIA PLANTARUM 2024; 176:e14290. [PMID: 38634341 DOI: 10.1111/ppl.14290] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2022] [Revised: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024]
Abstract
In the present study, we analyzed GA3 (gibberellin)-treated sugarcane samples at the transcriptomic level to elucidate the differential expression of genes that influence sucrose accumulation. Previous research has suggested that GA3 application can potentially delay sink saturation by enhancing sink strength and demand, enabling the accommodation of more sucrose. To investigate the potential role of GA-induced modification of sink capacity in promoting higher sucrose accumulation, we sought to unravel the differential expression of transcripts and analyze their functional annotation. Several genes homologous to the sugar-phosphate/phosphate translocator, UTP-glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase, and V-ATPases (vacuolar-type H+ ATPase) were identified as potentially associated with the increased sucrose content observed. A differentially expressed transcript was found to be identical to the mRNA of an unknown protein. Homology-based bioinformatics analysis suggested it to be a hydrolase enzyme, which could potentially act as a stimulator of sucrose buildup. The database of differentially expressed transcripts obtained in this study under the influence of GA3 represents a valuable addition to the sugarcane transcriptomics and functional genomics knowledge base.

Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24108913.

Abstract
Sugarcane, a C4 plant, provides most of the world's sugar, and a substantial amount of renewable bioenergy, due to its unique sugar-accumulating and feedstock properties. Brazil, India, China, and Thailand are the four largest sugarcane producers worldwide, and the crop has the potential to be grown in arid and semi-arid regions if its stress tolerance can be improved. Modern sugarcane cultivars which exhibit a greater extent of polyploidy and agronomically important traits, such as high sugar concentration, biomass production, and stress tolerance, are regulated by complex mechanisms. Molecular techniques have revolutionized our understanding of the interactions between genes, proteins, and metabolites, and have aided in the identification of the key regulators of diverse traits. This review discusses various molecular techniques for dissecting the mechanisms underlying the sugarcane response to biotic and abiotic stresses. The comprehensive characterization of sugarcane's response to various stresses will provide targets and resources for sugarcane crop improvement.

BioClay nanosheets infused with GA3 ameliorate the combined stress of hexachlorobenzene and temperature extremes in Brassica alboglabra plants. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2022; 13:964041. [PMID: 36275566 PMCID: PMC9583914 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2022.964041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2022] [Accepted: 07/28/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Environmental pollutants and climate change are the major cause of abiotic stresses. Hexachlorobenzene (HCB) is an airborne and aero-disseminated persistent organic pollutants (POP) molecule causing severe health issues in humans, and temperature extremes and HCB in combination severely affect the growth and yield of crop plants around the globe. The higher HCB uptake and accumulation by edible plants ultimately damage human health through the contaminated food chain. Hence, confining the passive absorbance of POPs is a big challenge for researchers to keep the plant products safer for human consumption. BioClay functional layered double hydroxide is an effective tool for the stable delivery of acidic molecules on plant surfaces. The current study utilized gibberellic acid (GA3) impregnated BioClay (BioClay GA ) to alleviate abiotic stress in Brassica alboglabra plants. Application of BioClay GA mitigated the deleterious effects of HCB besides extreme temperature stress in B. alboglabra plants. BioClay GA significantly restricted HCB uptake and accumulation in applied plants through increasing the avoidance efficacy (AE) up to 377.61%. Moreover, the exogenously applied GA3 and BioClay GA successfully improved the antioxidative system, physiochemical parameters and growth of stressed B. alboglabra plants. Consequently, the combined application of BioClay and GA3 can efficiently alleviate low-temperature stress, heat stress, and HCB toxicity.

Herbaspirillum seropedicae strain HRC54 expression profile in response to sugarcane apoplastic fluid. 3 Biotech 2021; 11:292. [PMID: 34136329 DOI: 10.1007/s13205-021-02848-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2021] [Accepted: 05/17/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Bacterial transcriptome profiling in the presence of plant fluids or extracts during microbial growth may provide relevant information on plant-bacteria interactions. Here, RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) was used to determine the transcriptomic profile of Herbaspirillum seropedicae strain HRC54 at the early stages of response to sugarcane apoplastic fluid. Differentially expressed gene (DEG) analysis was performed using the DESeq2 and edgeR packages, followed by functional annotation using Blast2GO and gene ontology enrichment analysis using the COG and KEGG databases. After 2 h of sugarcane apoplastic fluid addition to the H. seropedicae HRC54 culture, respectively, 44 and 45 genes were upregulated and downregulated. These genes were enriched in bacterial metabolism (e.g., oxidoreductase and transferase), ABC transporters, motility, secretion systems, and signal transduction. RNA-Seq expression profiles of 12 genes identified in data analyses were verified by RT-qPCR. The results suggested that H. seropedicae HRC54 recognized sugarcane apoplastic fluid as the host signal, and some DEGs were closely involved at the early stages of the establishment of plant-bacteria interactions.
