Characterisation and Expression Analysis of LdSERK1, a Somatic Embryogenesis Gene in Lilium davidii var. unicolor. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 13:1495. [PMID: 38891306 PMCID: PMC11174594 DOI: 10.3390/plants13111495] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2024] [Revised: 05/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024]
Abstract
The Lanzhou lily (Lilium davidii var. unicolor) is a variant of the Sichuan lily of the lily family and is a unique Chinese 'medicinal and food' sweet lily. Somatic cell embryogenesis of Lilium has played an important role in providing technical support for germplasm conservation, bulb propagation and improvement of genetic traits. Somatic embryogenesis receptor-like kinases (SERKs) are widely distributed in plants and have been shown to play multiple roles in plant life, including growth and development, somatic embryogenesis and hormone induction. Integrating the results of KEGG enrichment, GO annotation and gene expression analysis, a lily LdSERK1 gene was cloned. The full-length open reading frame of LdSERK1 was 1875 bp, encoding 624 amino acids. The results of the phylogenetic tree analysis showed that LdSERK1 was highly similar to rice, maize and other plant SERKs. The results of the subcellular localisation in the onion epidermis suggested that the LdSERK1 protein was localised at the cell membrane. Secondly, we established the virus-induced gene-silencing (VIGS) system in lily scales, and the results of LdSERK1 silencing by Tobacco rattle virus (TRV) showed that, with the down-regulation of LdSERK1 expression, the occurrence of somatic embryogenesis and callus tissue induction in scales was significantly reduced. Finally, molecular assays from overexpression of the LdSERK1 gene in Arabidopsis showed that LdSERK1 expression was significantly enhanced in the three transgenic lines compared to the wild type, and that the probability of inducing callus tissue in seed was significantly higher than that of the wild type at a concentration of 2 mg/L 2,4-D, which was manifested by an increase in the granularity of the callus tissue.

PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:4095. [PMID: 38140424 PMCID: PMC10748034 DOI: 10.3390/plants12244095] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 10/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023]
Abstract
Plant growth regulators (PGR) are essential for somatic embryogenesis (SE) in different species, and Coffea canephora is no exception. In our study model, previously, we have been able to elucidate the participation of various genes involved in SE by using different strategies; however, until now, we have not used a proteomic approach. This research seeks to contribute to understanding the primary cellular pathways involved in developing SE in C. canephora. The process of our model consists of two stages: (1) preconditioning in MS medium with auxin (NAA) and cytokinin (KIN), and (2) induction in Yasuda liquid medium added with cytokinin (BA). Therefore, in this study, we analyzed different days of the SE induction process using shotgun label-free proteomics. An amount of 1630 proteins was found among different sampling days of the process, of which the majority were accumulated during the induction stage. We found that some of the most enriched pathways during this process were the biosynthesis of amino acids and secondary metabolites. Eighteen proteins were found related to auxin homeostasis and two to cytokinin metabolism, such as ABC, BIG, ILR, LOG, and ARR. Ten proteins and transcription factors related to SE were also identified, like SERK1, SKP1, nuclear transcription factor Y, MADS-box, and calreticulin, and 19 related to other processes of plant development, among which the 14-3-3 and PP2A proteins stand out. This is the first report on the proteomic approach to elucidate the mechanisms that operate during the induction of SE in C. canephora. So, our findings provide the groundwork for future, more in-depth research. Data are available via ProteomeXchange Consortium via the PRIDE partner repository with the dataset identifier PXD047172.

Abstract
Somatic embryogenesis (SE) is important for Lilium bulb propagation, germplasm conservation, and genetic transformation. The transition of somatic cells to embryonic cells is a critical step in SE, but the associated regulatory mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Lilium pumilum DC. Fisch has a high regenerative capacity, and this study clarifies the critical timing of embryonic cell appearance in Lilium SE. Transcriptome sequencing using RNA-seq technology was performed on 5 representative samples from the early stage of Lilium SE. The 15 established cDNA libraries yielded 91.47 GB of valid data, and a total of 11,155 genes were consistently differentially expressed in the early stages of Lilium SE. GO annotation and KEGG pathway analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) suggested that transcriptional regulation, hormone signaling, and stress response pathways play essential roles in the early stages of Lilium SE. WOX8, WOX11, SHR2, NAC37, AHP2, ANT, PIN1C, LAX2, LBD4, ACS12, YUC4, NFYB3, WRKY28, SAUR50, PYL9, and WRKY39 may be candidate genes for regulating early SE in Lilium. We further cloned LpNAC37, one of the key DEGs obtained from WGCNA and screening. LpNAC37 encodes a protein of 303 amino acids with a conserved NAM structural domain. The protein is a nuclear transcription factor with the highest homology to carrot DcNAC37. Overexpression of LpNAC37 suggested that LpNAC37 promotes embryonic callus formation in Arabidopsis. These results will help reveal the molecular mechanisms of the early stages of Lilium SE and advance the application of SE in Lilium propagation and genetic transformation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tree peony (Paeonia sect. Moutan DC.) is a famous flower native to China with high ornamental, medicinal, and oil value. However, the low regeneration rate of callus is one of the main constraints for the establishment of a genetic transformation system in tree peony. By histomorphological observation, transcriptomic analysis and metabolite determination, we investigated the molecular mechanism of somatic embryogenesis after the establishment of a culture system and the induction of somatic embryo(SE) formation. RESULTS We found that SE formation was successfully induced when cotyledons were used as explants. A total of 3185 differentially expressed genes were screened by comparative transcriptomic analysis of embryogenic callus (EC), SE, and non-embryogenic callus (NEC). Compared to NEC, the auxin synthesis-related genes GH3.6 and PCO2 were up-regulated, whereas cytokinin dehydrogenase (CKX6) and CYP450 family genes were down-regulated in somatic embryogenesis. In SE, the auxin content was significantly higher than the cytokinin content. The methyltransferase-related gene S-adenosylmethionine synthase (SAMS) and the flavonoid biosynthesis-related gene (ANS and F3'5'H) were down-regulated in somatic embryogenesis. The determination of flavonoids showed that rhoifolin and hyperoside had the highest content in SE. The results of transcriptome analysis were consistent with the relative expression of 8 candidate genes by quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis. CONCLUSION The results revealed that auxin and cytokinin may play a key role in 'Fengdan' somatic embryogenesis. The genes related to somatic embryogenesis were revealed, which has partly elucidated the molecular mechanism of somatic embryogenesis in 'Fengdan'.

Abstract
Auxins are responsible for a large part of the plant development process. To exert their action, they must move throughout the plant and from cell to cell, which is why plants have developed complex transport systems for indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). These transporters involve proteins that transport IAA into cells, transporters that move IAA to or from different organelles, mainly the endoplasmic reticulum, and transporters that move IAA out of the cell. This research determined that Persea americana has 12 PIN transporters in its genome. The twelve transporters are expressed during different stages of development in P. americana zygotic embryos. Using different bioinformatics tools, we determined the type of transporter of each of the P. americana PIN proteins and their structure and possible location in the cell. We also predict the potential phosphorylation sites for each of the twelve-PIN proteins. The data show the presence of highly conserved sites for phosphorylation and those sites involved in the interaction with the IAA.

A Comparative Transcriptome Analysis Reveals the Molecular Mechanisms That Underlie Somatic Embryogenesis in Peaonia ostii ‘Fengdan’. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231810595.

Abstract
Low propagation rate is the primary problem that limits industry development of tree peony. In this study, a highly efficient regeneration system for tree peony using somatic embryogenesis (SE) was established. The transcriptomes of zygotic embryo explants (S0), non-embryonic callus (S1), embryonic callus (S2), somatic embryos (S3), and regenerated shoots (S4) were analyzed to determine the regulatory mechanisms that underlie SE in tree peony. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in the pairwise comparisons of S1-vs-S2 and S1-vs-S3, respectively. The enriched DEGs were primarily involved in hormone signal transduction, stress response and the nucleus (epigenetic modifications). The results indicated that cell division, particularly asymmetric cell division, was enhanced in S3. Moreover, the genes implicated in cell fate determination played central roles in S3. Hormone signal pathways work in concert with epigenetic modifications and stress responses to regulate SE. SERK, WOX9, BBM, FUS3, CUC, and WUS were characterized as the molecular markers for tree peony SE. To our knowledge, this is the first study of the SE of tree peony using transcriptome sequencing. These results will improve our understanding of the molecular mechanisms that underly SE in tree peony and will benefit the propagation and genetic engineering of this plant.

Abstract
Placental oxidative stress has been implicated as a main risk factor for placental dysfunction. Alleviation of oxidative stress and enhancement of antioxidant capacity of porcine trophectoderm (PTr2) cells are effective means to maintaining normal placental function. The present study was conducted to evaluate the protective effect of melatonin (MT) on H2O2-induced oxidative damage in PTr2 cells. Our data revealed that pretreatment with MT could significantly improve the decrease in cell viability induced by H2O2, and reduce intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and the ratio of apoptotic cells. Here, we compared the transcriptomes of untreated versus melatonin-treated PTr2 cells by RNA-seq analysis and found that differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were highly enriched in the Wnt signaling, TGF-beta signaling and mTOR signaling pathways. Moreover, pretreatment with MT upregulated the antioxidant-related genes such as early growth response3 (EGR3), WAP four-disulfide core domain1 (WFDC1), heme oxygenase1 (HMOX1) and vimentin (VIM). These findings reveal that melatonin protects PTr2 cells from H2O2-induced oxidative stress damage.

Abstract
Double flowers are one of the important objectives of ornamental plant breeding. Sagittaria sagittifolia is an aquatic herb in the Alismataceae family that is widely used as an ornamental plant in gardens. However, the reference genome has not been published, and the molecular regulatory mechanism of flower formation remains unclear. In this study, single molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing technology combined with Illumina RNA-Seq was used to perform a more comprehensive analysis of S. sagittifolia for the first time. We obtained high-quality full-length transcripts, including 53,422 complete open reading frames, and identified 5980 transcription factors that belonged to 67 families, with many MADS-box genes involved in flower formation being obtained. The transcription factors regulated by plant hormone signals played an important role in the development of double flowers. We also identified an AP2 orthologous gene, SsAP2, with a deletion of the binding site for miR172, that overexpressed SsAP2 in S. sagittifolia and exhibited a delayed flowering time and an increased number of petals. This study is the first report of a full-length transcriptome of S. sagittifolia. These reference transcripts will be valuable resources for the analysis of gene structures and sequences, which provide a theoretical basis for the molecular regulatory mechanism governing the formation of double flowers.

Abstract
Chinese hickory (Carya cathayensis Sarg.) is an important nut tree species native to China. Excessive plant height and long juvenile phase has restricted development of its industry. Recently, grafting has been used increasingly in production practice of this species to solve the problems above. Previous studies have proved the importance of auxin during Chinese hickory grafting. However, the function of ATP-binding cassette subfamily B (ABCB) genes during Chinese hickory grafting is less studied. In this study, 23 ABCB genes were identified and characterized in Chinese hickory (CcABCBs). The expression profiles of auxin-related ABCBs among tissues, under auxin-related phytohormone treatments and during grafting were determined. CcABCB proteins were divided into half-size and full-size transporters. Many phytohormone-related cis-acting regulatory elements were detected on the promoters of CcABCB genes. Four CcABCB genes homologous to auxin-related AtABCB1, 6, 19 and 20 in Arabidopsis were selected for expression analysis. The four genes displayed varying expression patterns in different tissues of Chinese hickory. Expressions of the four CcABCB genes were regulated by auxin-related phytohormones to varying degrees. Expression levels of the four genes were significantly changed at different stages of grafting, especially 7 days after grafting, indicating their involvement of auxin homeostasis regulation during grafting. In addition, the expressions of CcABCB1 were regulated by IAA and NPA treatments during grafting in comparison with CK treatment, while expressions of the other 3 CcABCB genes were slightly affected. This study will lay the foundation for understanding the potential regulatory roles of CcABCB genes during Chinese hickory grafting.

Abstract
Auxin transport mediates the asymmetric distribution of auxin that determines the fate of cell development. Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation is an important technical means to study gene function. Our previous study showed that the expression levels of LpABCB21 and LpPILS7 are significantly up-regulated in the somatic embryogenesis (SE) of Lilium pumilum DC. Fisch. (L. pumilum), but the functions of both genes remain unclear. Here, the genetic transformation technology previously developed by our team based on the L. pumilum system was improved, and the genetic transformation efficiency increased by 5.7-13.0%. Use of overexpression and CRISPR/Cas9 technology produced three overexpression and seven mutant lines of LpABCB21, and seven overexpression and six mutant lines of LpPILS7. Analysis of the differences in somatic embryo induction of transgenic lines confirmed that LpABCB21 regulates the early formation of the somatic embryo; however, excessive expression level of LpABCB21 inhibits somatic embryo induction efficiency. LpPILS7 mainly regulates somatic embryo induction efficiency. This study provides a more efficient method of genetic transformation of L. pumilum. LpABCB21 and LpPILS7 are confirmed to have important regulatory roles in L. pumilum SE thus laying the foundation for subsequent studies of the molecular mechanism of Lilium SE.
