Abstract Abstract Background: Aphid ( Macrosiphoniella sanbourni ) stress drastically influences the yield and quality of chrysanthemum, and grafting has been widely used to improve tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, the effect of grafting on the resistance of chrysanthemum to aphids remains unclear. Therefore, we used the RNA-Seq platform to perform a de novo transcriptome assembly to analyze the self-rooted grafted chrysanthemum ( Chrysanthemum morifolium T. 'Hangbaiju') and the grafted Artermisia-chrysanthemum (grafted onto Artemisia scoparia W.) transcription response to aphid stress. Results : The results showed that there were 1337 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), among which 680 were upregulated and 667 were downregulated, in the grafted Artemisia-chrysanthemum compared to the self-rooted grafted chrysanthemum. These genes were mainly involved in sucrose metabolism, the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, the plant hormone signaling pathway and the plant-to-pathogen pathway. KEGG and GO enrichment analyses revealed the coordinated upregulation of these genes from numerous functional categories related to aphid stress responses. In addition, we determined the physiological indicators of chrysanthemum under aphid stress, and the results were consistent with the molecular sequencing results. All evidence indicated that grafting chrysanthemum onto A. scoparia W. upregulated aphid stress responses in chrysanthemum. Conclusion: In summary, our study presents a genome-wide transcript profile of the self-rooted grafted chrysanthemum and the grafted Artemisia-chrysanthemum and provides insights into the molecular mechanisms of C. morifolium T. in response to aphid infestation. These data will contribute to further studies of aphid tolerance and the exploration of new candidate genes for chrysanthemum molecular breeding.

Abstract Aphid stress drastically influences the yield and quality of chrysanthemum, and thus grafting has been widely used to improve tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. But how grafting affects chrysanthemum resistance to aphid the mechanism remains unclear. Therefore, we used the RNA-Seq platform to perform a de novo transcriptome assembly to analyze the selfrooted grafted chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat. 'Hangbaiju') and the grafted Artermisia-chrysanthemum (grafting onto Artemisia scoparia) transcription response to aphid stress. The results showed that there were 1337 differently expressed genes (DEGs), among which 680 were up-regulated, and 667 were down-regulated in Cm/As in comparison to Cm/Cm. These genes were mainly involved in glycometabolism, biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, phytohormone signaling and plant-to-pathogen pathway, and so on. KEGG and GO enrichment analysis revealed the coordinated up-regulation of these genes from numerous functional categories related to aphid stress responses. In addition, we performed the determination of physiological indicators of chrysanthemum treated under aphid stress, and the results were basically consistent with molecular sequencing results. All evidence indicated that grafting onto Artemisia scoparia upregulated aphid stress responses in chrysanthemum. In summary, our study presents a genome-wide transcript profile of the selfrooted grafted chrysanthemum and the grafted Artermisia-chrysanthemum and provides insights into the molecular mechanisms of C.morifolium in response to aphid infestation. These data contributes to our deeper relevant researches on aphid tolerance and further exploring new candidate genes for chrysanthemum molecular breeding.

Abstract Galeruca daurica (Joannis) has become a new insect pest in the Inner Mongolia grasslands since 2009, and its larvae and eggs have strong cold tolerance. To get a deeper insight into its molecular mechanisms of cold stress responses, we performed de novo transcriptome assembly for G. daurica by RNA-Seq and compared the transcriptomes of its larvae exposed to five different temperature treatments (−10, −5, 0, 5, and 25°C for 1 h and then recovered at 25°C for 1 h), respectively. Compared with the control (25°C), the numbers of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) decreased from 1,821 to 882, with the temperature declining from 5 to −10°C. Moreover, we obtained 323 coregulated DEGs under different low temperatures. Under four low temperatures (−10, −5, 0, and 5°C), a large number of genes were commonly upregulated during recovery from cold stresses, including those related to cuticle protein, followed by cytochrome P450, clock protein, fatty acid synthase, and fatty acyl-CoA reductase; meanwhile, lots of genes encoding cuticle protein, RNA replication protein, RNA-directed DNA polymerase, and glucose dehydrogenase were commonly downregulated. Our findings provide important clues for further investigations of key genes and molecular mechanisms involved in the adaptation of G. daurica to harsh environments.

AbstractThe Italian white truffle (Tuber magnatum Pico) is a gastronomic delicacy that dominates the worldwide truffle market. Despite its importance, the genomic resources currently available for this species are still limited. Here we present the first de novo transcriptome assembly of T. magnatum. Illumina RNA-seq data were assembled using a single-k-mer approach into 22,932 transcripts with N50 of 1,524 bp. Our approach allowed to predict and annotate 12,367 putative protein coding sequences, reunited in 6,723 loci. In addition, we identified 2,581 gene-based SSR markers. This work provides the first publicly available reference transcriptome for genomics and genetic studies providing insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying the biology of this important species.

Transcript Discovery

AbstractThe sequence of the chicken genome, like several other draft genome sequences, is presently not fully covered. Gaps, contigs assigned with low confidence and uncharacterized chromosomes result in gene fragmentation and imprecise gene annotation. Transcript abundance estimation from RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data relies on read quality, library complexity and expression normalization. In addition, the quality of the genome sequence used to map sequencing reads and the gene annotation that defines gene features must also be taken into account. Partially covered genome sequence causes the loss of sequencing reads from the mapping step, while an inaccurate definition of gene features induces imprecise read counts from the assignment step. Both steps can significantly bias interpretation of RNA-seq data. Here, we describe a dual transcript-discovery approach combining a genome-guided gene prediction and ade novotranscriptome assembly. This dual approach enabled us to increase the assignment rate of RNA-seq data by nearly 20% as compared to when using only the chicken reference annotation, contributing therefore to a more accurate estimation of transcript abundance. More generally, this strategy could be applied to any organism with partial genome sequence and/or lacking a manually-curated reference annotation in order to improve the accuracy of gene expression studies.

Bolting And Flowering

The appropriate timing of bolting and flowering is one of the keys to the reproductive success of Isatis indigotica. Several flowering regulatory pathways have been reported in plant species, but we know little about flowering regulatory in I. indigotica. In the present study, we performed RNA-seq and annotated I. indigotica transcriptome using RNA from five tissues (leaves, roots, flowers, fruit, and stems). Illumina sequencing generated 149,907,857 high-quality clean reads and 124,508 unigenes were assembled from the sequenced reads. Of these unigenes, 88,064 were functionally annotated by BLAST searches against the public protein databases. Functional classification and annotation assigned 55,991 and 23,072 unigenes to 52 gene ontology (GO) terms and 25 clusters of orthologous group (COG) categories, respectively. A total of 19,927 unigenes were assigned to 124 Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways, and 80 candidate genes related to plant circadian rhythm were identified. We also identified a number of differentially expressed genes (DEG) and 91 potential bolting and flowering-related genes from the RNA-seq data. This study is the first to identify bolting and flowering-related genes based on transcriptome sequencing and assembly in I. indigotica. The results provide foundations for the exploration of flowering pathways in I. indigotica and investigations of the molecular mechanisms of bolting and flowering in Brassicaceae plants.

Cd Translocation

Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal element. It is relatively easily absorbed by plants and enters the food chain, resulting in human exposure to Cd. Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.), an important forage cultivated widely in temperate regions worldwide, has the potential to be used in phytoremediation. However, genes regulating Cd translocation and accumulation in this species are not fully understood. Here, we optimized PacBio ISO-seq and integrated it with RNA-seq to construct a de novo full-length transcriptomic database for an un-sequenced autotetraploid species. With the database, we identified 2367 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and profiled the molecular regulatory pathways of Italian ryegrass with Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis in response to Cd stress. Overexpression of a DEG LmAUX1 in Arabidopsis thaliana significantly enhanced plant Cd concentration. We also unveiled the complexity of alternative splicing (AS) with a genome-free strategy. We reconstructed full-length UniTransModels using the reference transcriptome, and 29.76% of full-length models had more than one isoform. Taken together, the results enhanced our understanding of the genetic diversity and complexity of Italian ryegrass under Cd stress and provided valuable genetic resources for its gene identification and molecular breeding.
