Abstract
Chinese cordyceps was one of most valuable traditional Chinese medicine fungi. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms related to energy supply mechanism involved in the initiation and formation of primordium in Chinese cordyceps, we performed the integrated metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses of it at pre-primordium period, primordium germination period and after-primordium period, respectively. Transcriptome analysis showed that many genes related to 'starch and sucrose metabolism', 'fructose and mannose metabolism', 'linoleic acid metabolism', 'fatty acids degradation' and 'glycerophospholipid metabolism' were highly up-regulated at primordium germination period. Metabolomic analysis showed many metabolites regulated by these genes in these metabolism pathways were also markedly accumulated at this period. Consequently, we inferred that carbohydrate metabolism and β-oxidation pathway of palmitic acid and linoleic acid worked cooperatively to generate enough acyl-CoA, and then entered TCA cycle to provide energy for fruiting body initiation. Overall, our finding provided important information for further exploring the energy metabolic mechanisms of realizing the industrialization of Chinese cordyceps artificial cultivation.

Wang L, Du M, Wang B, Duan H, Zhang B, Wang D, Li Y, Wang J. Transcriptome analysis of halophyte Nitraria tangutorum reveals multiple mechanisms to enhance salt resistance. Sci Rep 2022; 12:14031. [PMID: 35982183 PMCID: PMC9388663 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-17839-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2022] [Accepted: 08/01/2022] [Indexed: 12/05/2022] Open
Abstract
As a typical halophyte, Nitraria tangutorum Bobr. has attracted the interest of many researchers with the excellent salt tolerance. Elucidation of the mechanism of N. tangutorum salinity tolerance will facilitate the genetic improvement of productive plants faced with salinity. To reveal the molecular response to gradually accumulated salt stress in N. tangutorum, RNA-sequencing and analysis of gradually accumulated NaCl treated samples and control samples were performed, and a total of 1419 differentially expressed genes were identified, including 949 down-regulated genes and 470 up-regulated genes. Detailed analysis uncovered that the catabolism of organic compounds mainly based on oxidative phosphorylation genes was up-regulated. Additionally, various antioxidant genes, especially anthocyanin-related genes, were found to help N. tangutorum remove reactive oxygen species. Moreover, the Mitogen activated protein kinase signaling pathway and other signaling pathways co-regulated various salt tolerance activities. Additionally, intracellular ion homeostasis was maintained via regulation of osmotic regulator-related genes, cutin-related genes, and cell elongation-related genes to retain cellular water and reduce ion concentration. In particularly, simultaneous up-regulation in cytoskeleton-related genes, cell wall-related genes, and auxin-related genes, provided evidence of important role of cell expansion in plant salt tolerance. In conclusion, complex regulatory mechanisms modulated by multiple genes might contribute to the salt tolerance by N. tangutorum.

Luo Y, Teng S, Yin H, Zhang S, Tuo X, Tran LSP. Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Roles of Anthocyanin- and Jasmonic Acid-Biosynthetic Pathways in Rapeseed in Response to High Light Stress. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms222313027. [PMID: 34884828 PMCID: PMC8657659 DOI: 10.3390/ijms222313027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2021] [Revised: 11/24/2021] [Accepted: 11/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Rapeseed (Brassica napus) is one of the major important oil crops worldwide and is largely cultivated in the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau (QTP), where long and strong solar-radiation is well-known. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying rapeseed's response to light stress are largely unknown. In the present study, the color of rapeseed seedlings changed from green to purple under high light (HL) stress conditions. Therefore, changes in anthocyanin metabolism and the transcriptome of rapeseed seedlings cultured under normal light (NL) and HL conditions were analyzed to dissect how rapeseed responds to HL at the molecular level. Results indicated that the contents of anthocyanins, especially glucosides of cyanidin, delphinidin, and petunidin, which were determined by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), increased by 9.6-, 4.2-, and 59.7-fold in rapeseed seedlings exposed to HL conditions, respectively. Next, RNA-sequencing analysis identified 7390 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), which included 4393 up-regulated and 2997 down-regulated genes. Among the up-regulated genes, many genes related to the anthocyanin-biosynthetic pathway were enriched. For example, genes encoding dihydroflavonol reductase (BnDFR) and anthocyanin synthase (BnANS) were especially induced by HL conditions, which was also confirmed by RT-qPCR analysis. In addition, two PRODUCTION OF ANTHOCYANIN PIGMENTATION 2 (BnPAP2) and GLABRA3 (BnGL3) genes encoding MYB-type and bHLH-type transcription factors, respectively, whose expression was also up-regulated by HL stress, were found to be associated with the changes in anthocyanin biosynthesis. Many genes involved in the jasmonic acid (JA)-biosynthetic pathway were also up-regulated under HL conditions. This finding, which is in agreement with the well-known positive regulatory role of JA in anthocyanin biosynthesis, suggests that the JA may also play a key role in the responses of rapeseed seedlings to HL. Collectively, these data indicate that anthocyanin biosynthesis-related and JA biosynthesis-related pathways mediate HL responses in rapeseed. These findings collectively provide mechanistic insights into the mechanisms involved in the response of rapeseed to HL stress, and the identified key genes may potentially be used to improve HL tolerance of rapeseed cultivars through genetic engineering or breeding strategies.
