Characterization of microRNAs and Target Genes in Musa acuminata subsp. burmannicoides, var. Calcutta 4 during Interaction with Pseudocercospora musae. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:1473. [PMID: 37050099 PMCID: PMC10097032 DOI: 10.3390/plants12071473] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2023] [Revised: 03/20/2023] [Accepted: 03/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
Endogenous microRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that perform post-transcriptional regulatory roles across diverse cellular processes, including defence responses to biotic stresses. Pseudocercospora musae, the causal agent of Sigatoka leaf spot disease in banana (Musa spp.), is an important fungal pathogen of the plant. Illumina HiSeq 2500 sequencing of small RNA libraries derived from leaf material in Musa acuminata subsp. burmannicoides, var. Calcutta 4 (resistant) after inoculation with fungal conidiospores and equivalent non-inoculated controls revealed 202 conserved miRNAs from 30 miR-families together with 24 predicted novel miRNAs. Conserved members included those from families miRNA156, miRNA166, miRNA171, miRNA396, miRNA167, miRNA172, miRNA160, miRNA164, miRNA168, miRNA159, miRNA169, miRNA393, miRNA535, miRNA482, miRNA2118, and miRNA397, all known to be involved in plant immune responses. Gene ontology (GO) analysis of gene targets indicated molecular activity terms related to defence responses that included nucleotide binding, oxidoreductase activity, and protein kinase activity. Biological process terms associated with defence included response to hormone and response to oxidative stress. DNA binding and transcription factor activity also indicated the involvement of miRNA target genes in the regulation of gene expression during defence responses. sRNA-seq expression data for miRNAs and RNAseq data for target genes were validated using stem-loop quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). For the 11 conserved miRNAs selected based on family abundance and known involvement in plant defence responses, the data revealed a frequent negative correlation of expression between miRNAs and target host genes. This examination provides novel information on miRNA-mediated host defence responses, applicable in genetic engineering for the control of Sigatoka leaf spot disease.

Abstract
Banana (Musaceae family) has a complex genetic history and includes a genus Musa with a variety of cultivated clones with edible fruits, Ensete species that are grown for their edible corm, and monospecific Musella whose generic status has been questioned. The most commonly exported banana cultivars belong to Cavendish, a subgroup of Musa triploid cultivars, which is under threat by fungal pathogens, though there are also related species M. balbisiana Colla (B genome), M. textilis Née (T genome), and M. schizocarpa N. W. Simmonds (S genome), along with hybrids of these genomes, which potentially host genes of agronomic interest. Here we present the first cross-genus pangenome of banana, which contains representatives of the Musa and Ensete genera. Clusters based on gene presence-absence variation (PAV) clearly separate Musa and Ensete, while Musa is split further based on species. These results present the first pangenome study across genus boundaries and identifies genes that differentiate between Musaceae species, information that may support breeding programs in these crops.

Abstract
Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are 20-24 nucleotides long non-coding RNA sequences identified and characterized in multiple plant and animal systems. miRNAs play multifarious roles ranging from plant development to stress tolerance by synchronizing physiological processes at the level of transcription and translation. Banana is a major horticultural crop with colossal production worldwide. Despite the recent encouraging developments, the information on functions of miRNAs in banana plants is still in its infancy. The available literature pertaining to miRNAs in banana plants hints towards their contribution as master regulators in crucial physiological processes for instance abiotic stress responses, pathogenic defence response, fruit ripening and so on. This review is focused on biogenesis of miRNAs, their identification and deciphering their respective roles in banana plants with special emphasis on abiotic stress responses, plant immune responses, fruit ripening and storage. Based on the prior reports, we identified a few miRNAs with prospective roles in stress tolerance and illustrated the potential applications of miRNAs in banana crop improvement utilizing recent biotechnological tools such as CRISPR cas9, RNAi and the nano particle based foliar spray of miRNAs. The review briefly explained the future directions in banana research with a special emphasis on miRNA regulatory networks and agronomic traits improvement. Finally, future domains in miRNA research in plants and their possible applications towards crop improvement in agriculture are described briefly.

Abstract
Plant micro RNAs (miRNAs) control growth, development and stress tolerance but are comparatively unexplored in banana, whose cultivation is threatened by abiotic stress and nutrient deficiencies. In this study, a native Musa-miR397 precursor harboring 11 copper-responsive GTAC motifs in its promoter element was identified from banana genome. Musa-miR397 was significantly upregulated (8–10) fold in banana roots and leaves under copper deficiency, correlating with expression of root copper deficiency marker genes such as Musa-COPT and Musa-FRO2. Correspondingly, target laccases were significantly downregulated (>−2 fold), indicating miRNA-mediated silencing for Cu salvaging. No significant expression changes in the miR397-laccase module were observed under iron stress. Musa-miR397 was also significantly upregulated (>2 fold) under ABA, MV and heat treatments but downregulated under NaCl stress, indicating universal stress-responsiveness. Further, Musa-miR397 overexpression in banana significantly increased plant growth by 2–3 fold compared with wild-type but did not compromise tolerance towards Cu deficiency and NaCl stress. RNA-seq of transgenic and wild type plants revealed modulation in expression of 71 genes related to diverse aspects of growth and development, collectively promoting enhanced biomass. Summing up, our results not only portray Musa-miR397 as a candidate for enhancing plant biomass but also highlight it at the crossroads of growth-defense trade-offs.

Abstract
The fungus, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), is the causal agent of Fusarium wilt disease, which is the most serious disease affecting the whole banana industry. Although extensive studies have characterized many Foc-responsive genes in banana, the molecular mechanisms on microRNA level underlying both banana defense and Foc pathogenesis are not yet fully understood. In this study, we aimed to reveal the role of miRNA during banana-Foc TR4 interactions. Illumina sequencing was used to reveal the changes in small RNAome profiles in roots of Foc TR4-inoculated ‘Tianbaojiao’ banana (Musa acuminata cv. Tianbaojiao) in the early stages (i.e. 5 h, 10 h and 25 h post Foc TR4 inoculation, respectively). The expression of some differentially expressed (DE) miRNAs and their predicted target genes was studied by using quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR). Totally, 254 known miRNAs from 31 miRNA families and 28 novel miRNAs were identified. Differential expression analysis identified 84, 77 and 74 DE miRNAs at the three respective Foc TR4 infection time points compared with control healthy banana (CK). GO and KEGG analysis revealed that most of the predicted target genes of DE miRNAs (DET) were implicated in peroxisome, fatty acid metabolism, auxin-activated signaling pathway, sulfur metabolism, lignin metabolism and so on, and many known stress responsive genes were identified to be DETs. Moreover, expected inverse correlations were confirmed between some miRNA and their corresponding target genes by using qRT-PCR analysis. Our study revealed that miRNA play important regulatory roles during the banana-Foc TR4 interaction by regulating peroxidase, fatty acid metabolism, auxin signaling, sulfur metabolism, lignin metabolism related genes and many known stress responsive genes.

Abstract
The roles of microRNAs (miRNAs) related to ethylene response in banana fruits remain unknown because many miRNAs are differentially expressed as the fruit ripens, making the identification of ethylene-responsive miRNAs difficult. Using newly harvested banana fruits (within 5 h after harvest) as material, we found that these fruit did not ripen when treated with 5 μL/L of ethylene for 12 h at 22 °C. Two miRNA libraries were generated from newly harvested banana fruits with and without ethylene treatment and sequenced. In total, 128 known miRNAs belonging to 42 miRNA families were obtained, and 12 novel miRNAs were identified. Among them, 22 were differentially expressed in response to ethylene treatment, among which 6 known miRNAs and their putative targets were validated using qRT-PCR. These putative targets encoded proteins including GATA, ARF, DLC, and AGO, etc. KEGG and GO analyses showed that miRNAs differentially expressed in response to ethylene mainly function in the molecular and biological processes.

Abstract
In this work, high-speed capillary sieving electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescence detection was applied to simultaneously determine three microRNAs. A developed manual sample introduction device for the high-speed capillary electrophoresis system was applied to perform sample injection. Strategies, including field-amplified sample injection and electrokinetic injection, were studied to improve the detection sensitivity. Under the optimal conditions, the limit of detection for DNA-159 could be lowered to 5.10 × 10-12 mol/L. In order to achieve enough separation resolution, two DNA probes were designed to have extra sequences that acted as the drag tails. Under the optimized conditions, the three DNA probes and the complexes of microRNA-156, microRNA-159, and microRNA-166 could be completely separated within 3.2 min in background electrolyte (pH 8.7) containing 2.0% m/m polyvinyl pyrrolidone and 0.4% m/m hydroxyethyl cellulose. The limits of detection for the three microRNAs were 0.051, 0.11, and 0.25 nmol/L, respectively. Then the method was applied to analyze the microRNAs spiked in the samples extracted from banana leaves. The recoveries ranged from 114.3 to 121.1% (n = 3). The results showed that the method developed in this work was an effective means for microRNA assay.

Abstract
Plant somatic embryos are widely used in the fields of germplasm conservation, breeding for genetic engineering and artificial seed production. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play pivotal roles in somatic embryogenesis (SE) regulation. However, their regulatory roles during various stages of SE remain unclear. In this study, six types of embryogenic samples of Lilium pumilum DC. Fisch., including organogenic callus, embryogenic callus induced for 4 weeks, embryogenic callus induced for 6 weeks, globular embryos, torpedo embryos and cotyledon embryos, were prepared for small RNA sequencing. The results revealed a total of 2,378,760 small RNA reads, among which the most common size was 24 nt. Four hundred and fifty-two known miRNAs, belonging to more than 86 families, 57 novel miRNAs and 40 miRNA*s were identified. The 86 known miRNA families were sorted according to an alignment with their homologs across 24 land plants into the following four categories: 23 highly conserved, 4 moderately conserved, 15 less conserved and 44 species-specific miRNAs. Differentially expressed known miRNAs were identified during various stages of SE. Subsequently, the expression levels of 12 differentially expressed miRNAs and 4 targets were validated using qRT-PCR. In addition, six samples were mixed in equal amounts for transcript sequencing, and the sequencing data were used as transcripts for miRNA target prediction. A total of 66,422 unigenes with an average length of 800 bp were assembled from 56,258,974 raw reads. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment indicated that 38,004 and 15,497 unigenes were successfully assigned to GO terms and KEGG pathways, respectively. Among the unigenes, 2,182 transcripts were predicted to be targets for 396 known miRNAs. The potential targets of the identified miRNAs were mostly classified into the following GO terms: cell, binding and metabolic process. Enriched KEGG analysis demonstrated that carbohydrate metabolism was the predominant pathway in Lilium SE. Thus, we performed systemic characterization, homology comparisons and profiling of miRNA expression, and we constructed an miRNA-target network during Lilium SE for the first time. Our findings establish a foundation for the further exploration of critical genes and elucidation of SE in Lilium.

Abstract
In the present study, miRNA precursors in the genomes of three palm species were identified. Analyzes of sequence conservation and biological function of their putative targets contribute to understand the roles of miRNA in palm biology. MicroRNAs are small RNAs of 20-25 nucleotides in length, with important functions in the regulation of gene expression. Recent genome sequencing of the palm species Elaeis guineensis, Elaeis oleifera and Phoenix dactylifera have enabled the discovery of miRNA genes, which can be used as biotechnological tools in palm trees breeding. The goal of this study is the identification of miRNA precursors in the genomes of these species and their possible biological roles suggested by the mature miRNA-based regulation of target genes. Mature miRNA sequences from Arabidopsis thaliana, Oryza sativa, and Zea mays available at the miRBase were used to predict microRNA precursors in the palm genomes. Three hundred and thirty-eight precursors, ranging from 76 to 220 nucleotide (nt) in size and distributed in 33 families were identified. Moreover, we also identified 266 miRNA precursors of Musa acuminata, which are phylogenetically close to palms species. To understand the biological function of palm miRNAs, 374 putative miRNA targets were identified. An enrichment analysis of target-gene function was carried out using the agriGO tool. The results showed that the targets are involved in plant developmental processes, mainly regulating root development. Our findings contribute to increase the knowledge on microRNA roles in palm biology and could help breeding programs of palm trees.
