Molecular characterization of crop plants grown in remediated, formerly radioactive, areas could establish a framework for future agricultural use of these areas. Recently, we have established a quantitative reference map for mature flax seed proteins (Linum usitatissimum L.) harvested from a remediated plot in Chernobyl town. Herein we describe results from our ongoing studies of this subject, and provide a proteomics-based characterization of developing flax seeds harvested from same field. A quantitative approach, based on 2-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and tandem mass spectrometry, yielded expression profiles for 379 2-DE spots through seed development. Despite the paucity of genomic resources for flax, the identity for 102 proteins was reliably determined. These proteins were sorted into 11 metabolic functional classes. Proteins of unknown function comprise the largest group, and displayed a pattern of decreased abundance throughout seed development. Analysis of the composite expression profiles for metabolic protein classes revealed specific expression patterns during seed development. For example, there was an overall decrease in abundance of the glycolytic enzymes during seed development. 相似文献

Oil bodies (OBs) are the intracellular particles derived from oilseeds. These OBs store lipids as a carbon resource, and have been exploited for a variety of industrial applications including biofuels. Oleosin and caleosin are the common OB structural proteins which are enabling biotechnological enhancement of oil content and OB-based pharmaceutical formations via stabilizing OBs. Although the draft whole genome sequence information for Ricinus communis L. (castor bean) and Linum usitatissimum L. (flax), important oil seed plants, is available in public database, OB-structural proteins in these plants are poorly indentified. Therefore, in this study, we performed a comprehensive bioinformatic analysis including analysis of the genome sequence, conserved domains and phylogenetic relationships to identify OB structural proteins in castor bean and flax genomes. Using comprehensive analysis, we have identified 6 and 15 OB-structural proteins from castor bean and flax, respectively. A complete overview of this gene family in castor bean and flax is presented, including the gene structures, phylogeny and conserved motifs, resulting in the presence of central hydrophobic regions with proline knot motif, providing an evolutionary proof that this central hydrophobic region had evolved from duplications in the primitive eukaryotes. In addition, expression analysis of L-oleosin and caleosin genes using quantitative real-time PCR demonstrated that seed contained their maximum expression, except that RcCLO-1 expressed maximum in cotyledon. Thus, our comparative genomics analysis of oleosin and caleosin genes and their putatively encoded proteins in two non-model plant species provides insights into the prospective usage of gene resources for improving OB-stability. 相似文献

Charred seed conglomerates of Linum usitatissimum (flax) and Camelina sativa (gold of pleasure) were found at Uppåkra 2:25, a Roman Iron Age site in Skåne, southern Sweden. The conglomerates showed no mixing with each other, as they were almost pure flax and gold of pleasure respectively. Together with other archaeobotanical data from the site, they provide new evidence on the use, processing and cultivation of these two plants in early Iron Age in Scandinavia. Metric analyses were applied to flax seeds from both conglomerates and other contexts at this site, and compared to seed assemblages from other Roman Iron Age sites in Europe. The comparison showed that the flax cultivation at Uppåkra 2:25 was intended for the production of oil-rich seeds. The contextual relationship indicates that both flax and gold of pleasure seeds were processed in a similar way and used for oil. Furthermore, the pure seed conglomerate of gold of pleasure suggests that this plant was not a weed, but rather an intentionally grown crop which was cultivated separately from flax. 相似文献

Flax is an important oilseed crop in North America and is mostly grown as a fibre crop in Europe. As a self-pollinated diploid with a small estimated genome size of ~370 Mb, flax is well suited for fast progress in genomics. In the last few years, important genetic resources have been developed for this crop. Here, we describe the assessment and comparative analyses of 1,506 putative simple sequence repeats (SSRs) of which, 1,164 were derived from BAC-end sequences (BESs) and 342 from expressed sequence tags (ESTs). The SSRs were assessed on a panel of 16 flax accessions with 673 (58 %) and 145 (42 %) primer pairs being polymorphic in the BESs and ESTs, respectively. With 818 novel polymorphic SSR primer pairs reported in this study, the repertoire of available SSRs in flax has more than doubled from the combined total of 508 of all previous reports. Among nucleotide motifs, trinucleotides were the most abundant irrespective of the class, but dinucleotides were the most polymorphic. SSR length was also positively correlated with polymorphism. Two dinucleotide (AT/TA and AG/GA) and two trinucleotide (AAT/ATA/TAA and GAA/AGA/AAG) motifs and their iterations, different from those reported in many other crops, accounted for more than half of all the SSRs and were also more polymorphic (63.4 %) than the rest of the markers (42.7 %). This improved resource promises to be useful in genetic, quantitative trait loci (QTL) and association mapping as well as for anchoring the physical/genetic map with the whole genome shotgun reference sequence of flax. 相似文献

Combined 2D electrophoretic approaches for the study of white lupin mature seed storage proteome 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Seed proteome analysis by 2D IEF/SDS-PAGE techniques is challenging for the intrinsic difficulties related to quantitative disparity of the seed proteins, i.e. storage and non-storage proteins, their polymorphic nature, the extensive post-translational modifications and the paucity of deposited primary structures available. Conversely, 2D maps of seed proteomes can be extremely useful for a number of fundamental and applied investigations. In this work, we have used a combination of two experimental approaches to identify the main protein components of an emerging protein-rich legume seed, that is white lupin seed (Lupinus albus, L.). One is the canonical proteomic approach including 2D electrophoretic separation and mass spectrometry of selected trypsin-digested polypeptides; the other approach is a group comparative 2D electrophoretic analysis of cotyledonary protein families. To this second purpose, the three main families of lupin seed proteins, namely alpha-conglutins, the 11S globulin fraction, beta-conglutins, the 7S globulin fraction, and gamma-conglutin, a basic 7S protein, were isolated by conventional biochemical techniques and their 2D reference maps were compared with the total protein map. With the first approach 37 out of 40 spots, making up about 35% of total spot volumes in the 2D map, were found to belong to the main seed protein families. Thanks to cDNA-deduced lupin storage protein sequences, determined on purpose and deposited, most of the identification statistical parameters were very good. Moreover, it was possible to identify several endogenously proteolysed subunits in the map. The second comparative approach, beside confirming these attributions, allowed to allocate 124 polypeptides within the three main lupin protein families. These two approaches proved to be mutually validating and their combined use was effective for the establishment of a seed proteome map even in the case of sequence and protein post-translational processing lack of information. The results obtained also extend our knowledge of the seed storage protein polymorphism of white lupin. 相似文献

Preceding crop and phosphorus fertilization affect cadmium and zinc concentration of flaxseed under conventional and reduced tillage 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Field studies were conducted over 4 years at two locations in Manitoba, Canada to evaluate effects of preceding crop, tillage and phosphorus (P) fertilization on Cd and Zn concentration in oilseed flax (linseed—Linum usitatissimum L.). Canola (Brassica napus L.) and spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were grown under conventional and reduced tillage with three rates of monoammonium phosphate. Flax was seeded the year following the spring wheat or canola, with or without P fertilizer, and Cd and Zn concentration and accumulation were determined in the flax tissue at 5 weeks and in the mature seed. Flax following canola had lower Zn concentration and accumulation and higher Cd concentration and Cd:Zn ratio in the tissue and seed relative to flax following wheat. Phosphorus fertilization tended to increase Cd concentration and Cd:Zn ratio and decrease Zn concentration in the tissue and seed. Effects of tillage and interactions among tillage, preceding crop, and P fertilization were inconsistent. Changes in flax Cd and Zn concentration may be due to changes in mycorrhizal colonization or by the high concentration of Cd in the decomposing canola residue. Crop sequence and P management can be used to improve flaxseed food quality, by increasing Zn and decreasing Cd concentration. 相似文献

Agrobacterium-mediated plant transformation via floral-dip is a widely used technique in the field of plant transformation and has been reported to be successful for many plant species. However, flax (Linum usitatissimum) transformation by floral-dip has not been reported. The goal of this protocol is to establish that Agrobacterium and the floral-dip method can be used to generate transgenic flax. We show that this technique is simple, inexpensive, efficient, and more importantly, gives a higher transformation rate than the current available methods of flax transformation.In summary, inflorescences of flax were dipped in a solution of Agrobacterium carrying a binary vector plasmid (T-DNA fragment plus the Linum Insertion Sequence, LIS-1) for 1 - 2 min. The plants were laid flat on their side for 24 hr. Then, plants were maintained under normal growth conditions until the next treatment. The process of dipping was repeated 2 - 3 times, with approximately 10 - 14 day intervals between dipping. The T1 seeds were collected and germinated on soil. After approximately two weeks, treated progenies were tested by direct PCR; 2 - 3 leaves were used per plant plus the appropriate T-DNA primers. Positive transformants were selected and grown to maturity. The transformation rate was unexpectedly high, with 50 - 60% of the seeds from treated plants being positive transformants. This is a higher transformation rate than those reported for Arabidopsis thaliana and other plant species, using floral-dip transformation. It is also the highest, which has been reported so far, for flax transformation using other methods for transformation. 相似文献

The crucifer oilseed plant false flax (Camelina sativa subsp. sativa) possesses numerous valuable agronomic attributes that make it attractive as an alternative spring-sown crop for tight crop rotations. The oil of false flax is particularly rich in polyunsaturated C18-fatty acids, making it a valuable renewable feedstock for the oleochemical industry. Because of the minimal interest in the crop throughout the 20th century, breeding efforts have been limited. In this study, a genetic map for C. sativa was constructed, using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers, in a population of recombinant inbred lines that were developed, through single-seed descent, from a cross between 'Lindo' and 'Licalla', 2 phenotypically distinct parental varieties. Three Brassica simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were also integrated into the map, and 1 of these shows linkage to oil-content loci in both C. sativa and Brassica napus. Fifty-five other SSR primer combinations showed monomorphic amplification products, indicating partial genome homoeology with the Brassica species. Using data from field trials with different fertilization treatments (0 and 80 kg N/ha) at multiple locations over 3 years, the map was used to localize quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for seed yield, oil content, 1000-seed mass, and plant height. Some yield QTLs were found only with the N0 treatment, and might represent loci contributing to the competitiveness of false flax in low-nutrient soils. The results represent a starting point for future marker-assisted breeding. 相似文献

Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is the most cultivated European pulse crop and the pea seeds mainly serve as a protein source for monogastric animals. Because the seed protein composition impacts on seed nutritional value, we aimed at identifying the determinants of its variability. This paper presents the first pea mature seed proteome reference map, which includes 156 identified proteins (http://www.inra.fr/legumbase/peaseedmap/). This map provides a fine dissection of the pea seed storage protein composition revealing a large diversity of storage proteins resulting both from gene diversity and post‐translational processing. It gives new insights into the pea storage protein processing (especially 7S globulins) as a possible adaptation towards progressive mobilization of the proteins during germination. The nonstorage seed proteome revealed the presence of proteins involved in seed defense together with proteins preparing germination. The plasticity of the seed proteome was revealed for seeds produced in three successive years of cultivation, and 30% of the spots were affected by environmental variations. This work pinpoints seed proteins most affected by environment, highlighting new targets to stabilize storage protein composition that should be further analyzed. 相似文献

Seeds are the most important plant storage organ and play a central role in the life cycle of plants. Since little is known about the protein composition of rice (Oryza sativa) seeds, in this work we used proteomic methods to obtain a reference map of rice seed proteins and identify important molecules. Overall, 480 reproducible protein spots were detected by two-dimensional electrophoresis on pH 4–7 gels and 302 proteins were identified by MALDI-TOF MS and database searches. Together, these proteins represented 252 gene products and were classified into 12 functional categories, most of which were involved in metabolic pathways. Database searches combined with hydropathy plots and gene ontology analysis showed that most rice seed proteins were hydrophilic and were related to binding, catalytic, cellular or metabolic processes. These results expand our knowledge of the rice proteome and improve our understanding of the cellular biology of rice seeds. 相似文献

Most fertilizer phosphorus (P) is sorbed by soil rather than being taken up by crops. We hypothesize enriching wheat seed with P before sowing the crop will reduce requirement of fertilizer P for subsequent wheat production. We produced P-enriched wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seed by soaking the seed in different concentrations of potassium phosphate solution. We found that ~0.35 M potassium phosphate was the most effective concentration for P-enrichment of the seed. In pot and field experiments we found that the P-enriched seed required ~60% less fertilizer P than seed not soaked with potassium phosphate before sowing. Increases in shoot P content could not be explained only by the increase of seed P-enrichment, suggesting that P acquisition from soil was also enhanced. Under hydroponic conditions we found that root length was greater in seedlings grown from P-enriched seed with higher specific root length than in seedlings grown from non-P-enriched seed. We conclude P-enrichment of wheat seed before sowing reduces fertilizer P requirements of plants. 相似文献

The effect of nitrogen on Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) in a susceptible barley cultivar was investigated using gel-based proteomics. Barley grown with either 15 or 100 kg ha? 1 N fertilizer was inoculated with Fusarium graminearum (Fg). The storage protein fraction did not change significantly in response either to N level or Fg, whereas eighty protein spots in the water-soluble albumin fraction increased and 108 spots decreased more than two-fold in intensity in response to Fg. Spots with greater intensity in infected plants contained fungal proteins (9 spots) and proteolytic fragments of plant proteins (65 spots). Identified fungal proteins included two superoxide dismutases, l-xylulose reductase in two spots, peptidyl prolyl cis–trans isomerase and triosephosphate isomerase, and proteins of unknown function. Spots decreasing in intensity in response to Fg contained plant proteins possibly degraded by fungal proteases. Greater spot volume changes occurred in response to Fg in plants grown with low nitrogen, although proteomes of uninfected plants were similar for both treatments. Correlation of proteome changes with measurement of Fusarium-damaged kernels, fungal biomass and mycotoxin levels indicated that increased Fusarium infection occurred in barley with low N and suggests control of N fertilization as a possible way to minimise FHB in barley. 相似文献

Background
Drought is one of major abiotic stresses constraining crop productivity worldwide. To adapt to drought stress, plants have evolved sophisticated defence mechanisms. Wild barley germplasm is a treasure trove of useful genes and offers rich sources of genetic variation for crop improvement. In this study, a proteome analysis was performed to identify the genetic resources and to understand the mechanisms of drought tolerance in plants that could result in high levels of tolerance to drought stress.Results
A greenhouse pot experiment was performed to compare proteomic characteristics of two contrasting Tibetan wild barley genotypes (drought-tolerant XZ5 and drought-sensitive XZ54) and cv. ZAU3, in response to drought stress at soil moisture content 10 % (SMC10) and 4 % (SMC4) and subsequently 2 days (R1) and 5 days (R2) of recovery. More than 1700 protein spots were identified that are involved in each gel, wherein 132, 92, 86, 242 spots in XZ5 and 261, 137, 156, 187 in XZ54 from SMC10, SMC4, R1 and R2 samples were differentially expressed by drought over the control, respectively. Thirty-eight drought-tolerance-associated proteins were identified using mass spectrometry and data bank analysis. These proteins were categorized mainly into photosynthesis, stress response, metabolic process, energy and amino-acid biosynthesis. Among them, 6 protein spots were exclusively expressed or up-regulated under drought stress in XZ5 but not in XZ54, including melanoma-associated antigen p97, type I chlorophyll a/b-binding protein b, glutathione S-transferase 1, ribulosebisphosphate carboxylase large chain. Moreover, type I chlorophyll a/b-binding protein b was specifically expressed in XZ5 (Spots A4, B1 and C3) but not in both of XZ54 and ZAU3. These proteins may play crucial roles in drought-tolerance in XZ5. Coding Sequences (CDS) of rbcL and Trx-M genes from XZ5, XZ54 and ZAU3 were cloned and sequenced. CDS length of rbcL and Trx-M was 1401 bp (the partial-length CDS region) and 528 bp (full-length CDS region), respectively, encoding 467 and 176 amino acids. Comparison of gene sequences among XZ5, XZ54 and ZAU3 revealed 5 and 2 SNPs for rbcL and Trx-M, respectively, with two 2 SNPs of missense mutation in the both genes.Conclusions
Our findings highlight the significance of specific-proteins associated with drought tolerance, and verified the potential value of Tibetan wild barley in improving drought tolerance of barley as well as other cereal crops.Electronic supplementary material

Fine mapping of a major quantitative trait locus that regulates pod shattering in soybean 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Muqiang Gao Hongyan Zhu 《Molecular breeding : new strategies in plant improvement》2013,32(2):485-491
Legumes represent the second most important family of crop plants, accounting for ~27 % of the world’s crop production. While some legumes are grown as forages or vegetables, most crop legumes are grown for harvesting their nutritious seeds. The legume seeds are contained in the pod, which is composed of a single seed-bearing carpel that, when matures, splits open along two seams, a process called pod dehiscence or pod shattering. Pod shattering before or during harvest causes yield losses of grain legumes. Moreover, the dominant shattering trait of the wild progenitors is a limiting factor for efficient introgression of value-added traits into elite breeding lines. Knowledge of the genetic mechanisms underlying pod shattering will facilitate breeding of shattering-resistant varieties, expedite introgression of agronomically favorable traits from wild species to elite breeding lines, and enrich our understanding of the evolution of seed dispersal and crop domestication in diverse crop species. Here we report fine mapping of a major quantitative trait locus (designated as qPDH1) that regulates pod shattering in soybean (Glycine max). A combination of linkage and association mapping allowed us to delimit the qPDH1 locus within a 47-kb region on chromosome 16. The data reported here will facilitate positional cloning of the underlying gene and the development of breeder-friendly genetic markers for marker-assisted selection in soybean. 相似文献
