[PMID: 38492820 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygeno.2024.110823] [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: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 03/04/2024] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024]
Abstract
The TIFY gene family plays an essential role in plant development and abiotic and biotic stress responses. In this study, genome-wide identification of TIFY members in tobacco and their expression pattern analysis in response to Ralstonia solanacearum infection were performed. A total of 33 TIFY genes were identified, including the TIFY, PPD, ZIM&ZML and JAZ subfamilies. Promoter analysis results indicated that a quantity of light-response, drought-response, SA-response and JA-response cis-elements exist in promoter regions. The TIFY gene family exhibited expansion and possessed gene redundancy resulting from tobacco ploidy change. In addition, most NtTIFYs equivalently expressed in roots, stems and leaves, while NtTIFY1, NtTIFY4, NtTIFY18 and NtTIFY30 preferentially expressed in roots. The JAZ III clade showed significant expression changes after inoculation with R. solanacearum, and the expression of NtTIFY7 in resistant varieties, compared with susceptible varieties, was more stably induced. Furthermore, NtTIFY7-silenced plants, compared with the control plants, were more susceptible to bacterial wilt. These results lay a foundation for exploring the evolutionary history of TIFY gene family and revealing gene function of NtTIFYs in tobacco bacterial wilt resistance.

Abstract
We aimed to investigate the characteristics of intestinal metabolomics and non-invasive biomarkers for early diagnosis of late-onset sepsis (LOS) by analyzing gut metabolites in preterm infants with LOS. We collected stool samples from septic and healthy preterm infants for analysis by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. 123 different metabolites were identified and 13 pathways were mainly involved. Glycine, serine, and threonine metabolism; glyoxylate and dicarboxylic acid metabolism; glutathione metabolism; primary bile acid biosynthesis; steroid synthesis; pentose and glucuronic acid interconversion may be involved in the pathogenesis of LOS in preterm infants. The significant changes of N-Methyldopamine, cellulose, glycine, gamma-Glutamyltryptophan, N-Ribosylnicotinamide and 1alpha, 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol showed specific diagnostic values and as non-invasive biomarkers for LOS.

Uncovering the transcriptional responses of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) roots to Ralstonia solanacearum infection: a comparative study of resistant and susceptible cultivars. BMC PLANT BIOLOGY 2023; 23:620. [PMID: 38057713 DOI: 10.1186/s12870-023-04633-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/26/2023] [Indexed: 12/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Tobacco bacterial wilt (TBW) caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is the most serious soil-borne disease of tobacco that significantly reduces crop yield. However, the limited availability of resistance in tobacco hinders breeding efforts for this disease. RESULTS In this study, we conducted hydroponic experiments for the root expression profiles of D101 (resistant) and Honghuadajinyuan (susceptible) cultivars in response to BW infection at 0 h, 6 h, 1 d, 3 d, and 7d to explore the defense mechanisms of BW resistance in tobacco. As a result, 20,711 and 16,663 (total: 23,568) differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in the resistant and susceptible cultivars, respectively. In brief, at 6 h, 1 d, 3 d, and 7 d, the resistant cultivar showed upregulation of 1553, 1124, 2583, and 7512 genes, while the susceptible cultivar showed downregulation of 1213, 1295, 813, and 7735 genes. Similarly, across these time points, the resistant cultivar had downregulation of 1034, 749, 1686, and 11,086 genes, whereas the susceptible cultivar had upregulation of 1953, 1790, 2334, and 6380 genes. The resistant cultivar had more up-regulated genes at 3 d and 7 d than the susceptible cultivar, indicating that the resistant cultivar has a more robust defense response against the pathogen. The GO and KEGG enrichment analysis showed that these genes are involved in responses to oxidative stress, plant-pathogen interactions, cell walls, glutathione and phenylalanine metabolism, and plant hormone signal transduction. Among the DEGs, 239 potential candidate genes were detected, including 49 phenylpropane/flavonoids pathway-associated, 45 glutathione metabolic pathway-associated, 47 WRKY, 48 ERFs, eight ARFs, 26 pathogenesis-related genes (PRs), and 14 short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase genes. In addition, two highly expressed novel genes (MSTRG.61386-R1B-17 and MSTRG.61568) encoding nucleotide-binding site leucine-rich repeat (NBS-LRR) proteins were identified in both cultivars at 7 d. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed significant enrichment of DEGs in GO and KEGG terms linked to glutathione, flavonoids, and phenylpropane pathways, indicating the potential role of glutathione and flavonoids in early BW resistance in tobacco roots. These findings offer fundamental insight for further exploration of the genetic architecture and molecular mechanisms of BW resistance in tobacco and solanaceous plants at the molecular level.

Integrated physiological and omics analyses reveal the mechanism of beneficial fungal Trichoderma sp. alleviating cadmium toxicity in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.). ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2023; 267:115631. [PMID: 37890251 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115631] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2023] [Revised: 10/05/2023] [Accepted: 10/22/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023]
Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) is a highly toxic heavy metal and readily accumulates in tobacco, which imperils public health via Cd exposure from smoking. Beneficial microbes have a pivotal role in promoting plant growth, especially under environmental stresses such as heavy metal stresses. In this study, we introduced a novel fungal strain Trichoderma nigricans T32781, and investigated its capacity to alleviate Cd-induced stress in tobacco plants through comprehensive physiological and omics analyses. Our findings revealed that T32781 inoculation in soil leads to a substantial reduction in Cd-induced growth inhibition. This was evidenced by increased plant height, enhanced biomass accumulation, and improved photosynthesis, as indicated by higher values of key photosynthetic parameters, including the maximum quantum yield of photosystem Ⅱ (Fv/Fm), stomatal conductance (Gs), photosynthetic rate (Pn) and transpiration rate (Tr). Furthermore, element analysis demonstrated that T. nigricans T32781 inoculation resulted in a remarkable reduction of Cd uptake by 62.2% and a 37.8% decrease in available soil Cd compared to Cd-stressed plants without inoculation. The protective role of T32781 extended to mitigating Cd-induced oxidative stress by improving antioxidant enzyme activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), and ascorbate peroxidase (APX). Metabolic profiling of tobacco roots identified 43 key metabolites, with notable contributions from compounds like nicotinic acid, succinic acid, and fumaric acid in reducing Cd toxicity in T32781-inoculated plants. Additionally, rhizosphere microbiome analysis highlighted the promotion of beneficial microbes, including Gemmatimonas and Sphingomonas, by T32781 inoculation, which potentially contributed to the restoration of plant growth under Cd exposure. In summary, our study demonstrated that T. nigricans T32781 effectively alleviated Cd stress in tobacco plants by reducing Cd uptake, alleviating Cd-induced oxidative stress, influencing plant metabolite and modulating the microbial composition in the rhizosphere. These findings offer a novel perspective and a promising candidate strain for enhancing Cd tolerance and prohibiting its accumulation in plants to reduce health risks associated with exposure to Cd-contaminated plants.

Abstract
Endophytes have a wide range of potential in maintaining plant health and sustainable agricultural environmental conditions. In this study, we analysed the diversity of endophytic bacteria in four mulberry cultivars with different resistance capacity against bacterial wilt using metagenomic sequencing and culture-dependent approaches. We further assessed the role of 11 shared genera in the control of bacterial wilt of mulberry. The results of the present study showed that Actinobacteria, Firmicutes, and Proteobacteria were the three dominant phyla in all communities, with the representative genera Acinetobacter and Pseudomonas. The diversity analysis showed that the communities of the highly and moderately resistant varieties were more diverse compared to those of the weakly resistant and susceptible varieties. The control tests of mulberry bacterial wilt showed that Pantoea, Atlantibacter, Stenotrophomonas, and Acinetobacter were effective, with a control rate of over 80%. Microbacterium and Kosakonia were moderately effective, with a control rate between 50 and 80%. At the same time, Escherichia, Lysinibacillus, Pseudomonas, and Rhizobium were found to be less effective, with a control rate of less than 40%. In conclusion, this study provides a reasonable experimental reference data for the control of bacterial wilt of mulberry.

Abstract
Flowering Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris L. ssp. chinensis var. utilis Tsen et Lee, 2n=20, AA) is a vegetable species in southern parts of China that faces high temperatures in the summer and winter seasons. While heat stress adversely impacts plant productivity and survival, the underlying molecular and biochemical causes are poorly understood. This study investigated the gene expression profiles of heat-sensitive (HS) '3T-6' and heat-tolerant (HT) 'Youlu-501' varieties of flowering Chinese cabbage in response to heat stress using RNA sequencing. Among the 37,958 genes expressed in leaves, 20,680 were differentially expressed genes (DEGs) at 1, 6, and 12 h, with 1,078 simultaneously expressed at all time points in both varieties. Hierarchical clustering analysis identified three clusters comprising 1,958, 556, and 591 down-regulated, up-regulated, and up- and/or down-regulated DEGs (3205 DEGs; 8.44%), which were significantly enriched in MAPK signaling, plant-pathogen interactions, plant hormone signal transduction, and brassinosteroid biosynthesis pathways and involved in stimulus, stress, growth, reproductive, and defense responses. Transcription factors, including MYB (12), NAC (13), WRKY (11), ERF (31), HSF (17), bHLH (16), and regulatory proteins such as PAL, CYP450, and photosystem II, played an essential role as effectors of homeostasis, kinases/phosphatases, and photosynthesis. Among 3205 DEGs, many previously reported genes underlying heat stress were also identified, e.g., BraWRKY25, BraHSP70, BraHSPB27, BraCYP71A23, BraPYL9, and BraA05g032350.3C. The genome-wide comparison of HS and HT provides a solid foundation for understanding the molecular mechanisms of heat tolerance in flowering Chinese cabbage.

PHYSIOLOGY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY OF PLANTS : AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FUNCTIONAL PLANT BIOLOGY 2022; 28:1077-1089. [PMID: 35722506 PMCID: PMC9203652 DOI: 10.1007/s12298-022-01187-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2022] [Revised: 05/16/2022] [Accepted: 05/17/2022] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
Insertions and deletions (InDels) can be used as molecular markers in genetic studies and marker-assisted selection breeding. However, genetic improvement in tobacco has been hindered by limited genetic diversity information and relatedness within available germplasm. A Chinese tobacco variety, Yueyan-98, was resequenced using restriction-site associated DNA (RAD-seq) approach to develop InDel markers. In total, 32,884 InDel loci were detected between Yueyan-98 and the K326 reference sequence [18,598 (56.55%) deletions and 14,288 (43.45%) insertions], ranging from 1 to 62 bp in length. Of the 6,733 InDels (> 4 bp) that were suitable for polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, 150 were randomly selected. These 150 InDels were unevenly distributed on 23 chromosomes, and the highest numbers of InDels were observed on chromosomes Nt05, Nt13, and Nt23. The average density of adjacent InDels was 19.36 Mb. Thirty-seven InDels were located in genic regions. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based markers were developed to validate polymorphism; 113 (79.80%) of the 150 InDel markers showed polymorphism and were further used for genetic diversity analysis of 50 tobacco accessions (13 from China, 1 from Mexico, and 36 from the USA). The average expected heterozygosity (He) and polymorphism information content (PIC) values were 0.28 ± 0.16 and 0.38 ± 0.10, respectively. The average Shannon diversity index (I) was 0.34 ± 0.18, with genetic diversity ranging from 0.13-0.57. The 50 accessions were classified into two groups with a genetic similarity coefficient of 0.68. Principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) and population structure analysis showed similar results and divided the population into two groups unrelated to their geographical origins. AMOVA showed 4% variance among the population and the remaining 96% within the population, suggesting low genetic differentiation between two subpopulations. Furthermore, 10 InDels (19 alleles) were significantly identified for tobacco plant height using GLM+Q model at P < 0.005. Among these, three markers (Nt-I-26, Nt-I-41, and Nt-I-44) were detected in at least two environments, with phenotypic variance explained (PVE) ranging from 14.03 to 32.68%. The polymorphic InDel markers developed can be used for hybrid identification, genetic diversity, genetic linkage map construction, gene mapping, and MAS breeding programs of tobacco.
