BMC PLANT BIOLOGY 2024; 24:561. [PMID: 38877454 PMCID: PMC11179386 DOI: 10.1186/s12870-024-05271-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Somatic embryogenesis (SE) is recognized as a promising technology for plant vegetative propagation. Although previous studies have identified some key regulators involved in the SE process in plant, our knowledge about the molecular changes in the SE process and key regulators associated with high embryogenic potential is still poor, especially in the important fiber and energy source tree - eucalyptus. RESULTS In this study, we analyzed the transcriptome and proteome profiles of E. camaldulensis (with high embryogenic potential) and E. grandis x urophylla (with low embryogenic potential) in SE process: callus induction and development. A total of 12,121 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 3,922 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified in the SE of the two eucalyptus species. Integration analysis identified 1,353 (131 to 546) DEGs/DEPs shared by the two eucalyptus species in the SE process, including 142, 13 and 186 DEGs/DEPs commonly upregulated in the callus induction, maturation and development, respectively. Further, we found that the trihelix transcription factor ASR3 isoform X2 was commonly upregulated in the callus induction of the two eucalyptus species. The SOX30 and WRKY40 TFs were specifically upregulated in the callus induction of E. camaldulensis. Three TFs (bHLH62, bHLH35 isoform X2, RAP2-1) were specifically downregulated in the callus induction of E. grandis x urophylla. WGCNA identified 125 and 26 genes/proteins with high correlation (Pearson correlation > 0.8 or < -0.8) with ASR3 TF in the SE of E. camaldulensis and E. grandis x urophylla, respectively. The potential target gene expression patterns of ASR3 TF were then validated using qRT-PCR in the material. CONCLUSIONS This is the first time to integrate multiple omics technologies to study the SE of eucalyptus. The findings will enhance our understanding of molecular regulation mechanisms of SE in eucalyptus. The output will also benefit the eucalyptus breeding program.

Abstract
Proteins usually do not function as monomers but rather perform their functions by interacting with themselves or other proteins. Co-immunoprecipitation is an essential assay for detecting protein interactions in vivo. In this chapter, we describe how to use co-immunoprecipitation to detect protein interactions in Arabidopsis protoplasts, seedlings, and Nicotiana benthamiana leaves. When using co-immunoprecipitation assays to detect protein interactions, it is necessary to pay attention to the design of the experimental and control groups.

Cui B, Yu M, Bai J, Zhu Z. SlbHLH22-Induced Hypertrophy Development Is Related to the Salt Stress Response of the GTgamma Gene in Tomatoes. Metabolites 2023; 13:1195. [PMID: 38132877 PMCID: PMC10744757 DOI: 10.3390/metabo13121195] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Hypertrophy development induced by the overexpression of SlbHLH22 (also called SlUPA-like) was susceptible to Xanthomonas in tomatoes. Transcriptome and metabolome analyses were performed on the hypertrophy leaves of a SlbHLH22-overexpressed line (OE) and wild type (WT) to investigate the molecular mechanism. Metabolome analysis revealed that six key metabolites were over-accumulated in the OE, including Acetylserine/O-Acetyl-L-serine, Glucono-1,5-lactone, Gluconate, 2-Oxoglutarate, and Loganate, implying that the OE plants increased salt or oxidant resistance under normal growth conditions. The RNA-seq analysis showed the changed expressions of downstream genes involved in high-energy consumption, photosynthesis, and transcription regulation in OE lines, and we hypothesized that these biological processes were related to the GTgamma subfamily of trihelix factors. The RT-PCR results showed that the expressions of the GTgamma genes in tomatoes, i.e., SlGT-7 and SlGT-36, were suppressed in the hypertrophy development. The expression of the GTgamma gene was downregulated by salinity, indicating a coordinated role of GTgamma in hypertrophy development and salt stress. Further research showed that both SlGT-7 and SlGT-36 were highly expressed in leaves and could be significantly induced by abscisic acid (ABA). The GTgamma protein had a putative phosphorylation site at S96. These results suggested GTgamma's role in hypertrophy development by increasing the salt resistance.

Genome wide association study of genes controlling resistance to Didymella rabiei Pathotype IV through genotyping by sequencing in chickpeas (Cicer arietinum). Genomics 2023; 115:110699. [PMID: 37597791 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygeno.2023.110699] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/15/2023] [Indexed: 08/21/2023]
Abstract
Ascochyta blight (AB) is a major disease in chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) that can cause a yield loss of up to 100%. Chickpea germplasm collections at the center of origin offer great potential to discover novel sources of resistance to pests and diseases. Herein, 189 Cicer arietinum samples were genotyped via genotyping by sequencing. This chickpea collection was phenotyped for resistance to an aggressive Turkish Didymella rabiei Pathotype IV isolate. Genome-wide association studies based on different models revealed 19 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) associations on chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, and 8. Although eight of these SNPs have been previously reported, to the best of our knowledge, the remaining ten were associated with AB resistance for the first time. The regions identified in this study can be addressed in future studies to reveal the genetic mechanism underlying AB resistance and can also be utilized in chickpea breeding programs to improve AB resistance in new chickpea varieties.

Integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis revealed altitude-related regulatory mechanisms on flavonoid accumulation in potato tubers. Food Res Int 2023; 170:112997. [PMID: 37316022 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.112997] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2023] [Revised: 05/14/2023] [Accepted: 05/16/2023] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Not least because it is adaptable to a variety of geographies and climates, potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is grown across much of the world. Pigmented potato tubers have been found to contain large quantities of flavonoids, which have various functional roles and act as antioxidants in the human diet. However, the effect of altitude on the biosynthesis and accumulation of flavonoids in potato tubers is poorly characterized. Here we carried out an integrated metabolomic and transcriptomic study in order to evaluate how cultivation at low (800 m), moderate (1800 m), and high (3600 m) altitude affects flavonoid biosynthesis in pigmented potato tubers. Both red and purple potato tubers grown at a high altitude contained the highest flavonoid content, and the most highly pigmented flesh, followed by those grown at a low altitude. Co-expression network analysis revealed three modules containing genes which were positively correlated with altitude-responsive flavonoid accumulation. The anthocyanin repressors StMYBATV and StMYB3 exhibited a significant positive relationship with altitude-responsive flavonoid accumulation. The repressive function of StMYB3 was further verified in tobacco flowers and potato tubers. The results presented here add to the growing body of knowledge regarding the response of flavonoid biosynthesis to environmental conditions, and should aid in efforts to develop novel varieties of pigmented potatoes for use across different geographies.
