Potential Role of Abscisic Acid in Cotton Fiber and Ovule Development 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Fibers and ovules of a cotton cultivar (Gossypium hirsutum L. Trambak-108) were analyzed for growth and free abscisic acid (ABA) content by indirect enzyme immunoassay. An inverse
correlation between fiber elongation and ABA content was observed. In the seed, accumulation of ABA was observed during secondary
thickening and the maturation phase. The potential role of ABA in fiber and seed development is discussed.

DNA methylation controls many aspects of plant growth and development. Here, we report a novel annual growth potential change that may correlate with changes in levels of the major DNA demethylases and methyltransferases in cotton ovules harvested at different times of the year. The abundances of DNA demethylases, at both the mRNA and protein levels, increased significantly from February to August and decreased during the remainder of the 12-month period, with the opposite pattern observed for DNA methyltransferases. Over the course of one year, substantial changes in methylcytosine content was observed at certain CHH sites (H = A, C, or T) in the promoter regions of the ETHYLENE RESPONSIVE FACTOR 6 (ERF6), SUPPRESSION OF RVS 161 DELTA 4 (SUR4) and 3-KETOACYL-COA SYNTHASE 13 (KCS13), which regulate cotton fiber growth. Three independent techniques were used to confirm the annual fluctuations in DNA methylation. Furthermore, in homozygous RNAi lines specifically targeting REPRESSOR OF SILENCING 1 (ROS1, a conserved DNA demethylase domain), promotion of DNA methylation significantly reduced fiber growth during August. 相似文献

Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L., 2n = 52, AADD) is an allotetraploid, therefore the discovery of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers is difficult. The recent emergence of genome complexity reduction technologies based on the next-generation sequencing (NGS) platform has greatly expedited SNP discovery in crops with highly repetitive and complex genomes. Here we applied restriction-site associated DNA (RAD) sequencing technology for de novo SNP discovery in allotetraploid cotton. We identified 21,109 SNPs between the two parents and used these for genotyping of 161 recombinant inbred lines (RILs). Finally, a high dense linkage map comprising 4,153 loci over 3500-cM was developed based on the previous result. Using this map quantitative trait locus (QTLs) conferring fiber strength and Verticillium Wilt (VW) resistance were mapped to a more accurate region in comparison to the 1576-cM interval determined using the simple sequence repeat (SSR) genetic map. This suggests that the newly constructed map has more power and resolution than the previous SSR map. It will pave the way for the rapid identification of the marker-assisted selection in cotton breeding and cloning of QTL of interest traits. 相似文献

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an immune-mediated disease of unknown cause that primarily affects the joints and ultimately leads to joint destruction. In recent years, the potential role of DNA methylation in the development of RA is raising great expectations among clinicians and researchers. DNA methylation influences diverse aspects of the disease and regulates epigenetic silencing of genes and behavior of several cell types, especially fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS), the most resident cells in joints. The activation of FLS is generally regarded as a key process in the development of RA that actively results in the promotion of ongoing inflammation and joint damage. It has also been shown that aberrant DNA methylation occurs in the pathogenesis of RA and contributes to the development of the disease. Recently, there has been an impressive increase in studies involving DNA methylation in RA. In this paper, we consider the role of DNA methylation in the development of RA. 相似文献

siRNA诱导的DNA甲基化与肿瘤的发生 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
siRNA诱导的基因沉默最早只被认为是发生在细胞质内的转录后水平的调控过程,随着siRNA指导DNA甲基化现象的发现,已证实siRNA可以通过指导基因组表观修饰引起转录水平基因沉默.DNA甲基化曾被预言是致癌作用的一种表观遗传学机制,肿瘤发生过程中抑瘤基因异常沉默涉及到基因启动子区域DNA的甲基化.分析了这两个过程中内在的关系,探索siRNA对肿瘤细胞中基因异常表达的影响和作用.这将有助于肿瘤生物学和表观遗传学的研究,也会为研发防治肿瘤的新方法和新途径提供新的思路. 相似文献

以新疆棉区优质棉品种‘新陆早16号’、品质中等品种‘新陆早10号’和‘新陆早13号’以及品质较差品种‘02-DB’为材料,测定了棉纤维发育过程中内源生长素(IAA)、赤霉素(GA4)、玉米素(ZR)和脱落酸(ABA)含量和主要纤维品质指标的变化,分析内源激素含量变化与纤维品质形成的关系。结果表明:不同品种棉花纤维发育中纤维内源激素变化趋势基本相似,其差异主要表现在IAA、GA4、ZR和ABA的含量大小及峰值出现的时间方面。‘新陆早16号’在纤维发育前期有较高IAA、GA4、ZR含量和较低的ABA含量,表现出纤维伸长速率较高、快速伸长时期较长等特征;而且在次生壁加厚期ZR峰值出现较早,有利于棉纤维成熟,从而表现出较优的纤维品质。‘02-DB’在纤维发育前期由于ABA含量较高影响了纤维伸长速率和快速伸长期的时间,同时后期ZR峰值出现晚,使纤维发育受到影响,而最终品质较差。可见,在棉花纤维伸长期IAA、GA4、ZR含量高而ABA含量低、次生壁加厚期ZR峰值出现早则有利于优质棉纤维形成。 相似文献

植物非编码小RNA(sRNAs)主要分为三类:微小RNA(m iRNAs)、小干扰RNA(siRNAs)和长小片段干扰RNA(lsiRNAs)。三者的生物合成和作用机制有所不同,但他们主要都通过介导靶mRNAs的剪切或抑制其翻译来调控基因的表达。这篇文章主要介绍小RNA研究的最新进展,并重点阐述其在非生物和生物胁迫中发挥的作用,如应对矿质元素缺乏、氧化胁迫、ABA胁迫以及病原菌入侵等生理过程。 相似文献

Small RNAs are a group of non-coding RNAs that downregulate gene expression in a sequence-specific manner to control plant growth and development. The objective of the present study was to clone and characterize several small RNAs in cotton. To identify small RNAs that are involved in the development of cotton bolls and fibers, we generated cDNA libraries from cotton bolls at 13?days post-anthesis from two cotton cultivars, Pima Phy 76 (Gossypium bardadense) and Acala 1517?C99 (Gossypium hirsutum). Screening of these libraries identified eight small RNAs, seven of which have not been reported in other plant species and appear to be absent in the known sequences of other plant species. Their predicted target genes are known to be involved in cotton fiber development. The cloned small RNAs displayed lower and differential expression in the examined boll developmental stages using RT-PCR and quantitative RT-PCR. The genetic polymorphism of the small RNAs at the DNA level was evaluated by miRNA-amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis using primers designed from the small miRNA genes in combination with AFLP primers. Homologous small RNA gene sequences were further isolated using this homology-based genotyping approach, and potential hairpin structures were identified. The results represent a novel method to isolate small including miRNA genes at the RNA and DNA levels in many plant species where genome sequences are not available or expressed sequence tags are limited. 相似文献

Small RNA is a variable and abundant type of non-coding RNAs in brain. The function of these RNAs is mainly unknown. A specific class of small RNA, microRNA, is dynamically regulated in neurogenesis and in embryo brain development. The genes for synaptic formation and some mental retardation disorders are putative targets for microRNA predicted by computational algorithms. The molecular pathways for mental development, common forms of autisms, schizophrenia, and affective disorders have yet to be elucidated. The hypothesis proposed here is that small regulatory RNAs, specifically microRNAs, play a role in human brain development and pathogenesis of brain disorders, especially of neurodevelopmental conditions. Pilot tests using comprehensive arrays of microRNAs demonstrate that microRNAs derived from postmortem human brains are applicable for microRNA expression profiling. The abundant expression of many regulatory small RNAs in human brain implies their biological role that must be tested by functional assays in neurons and by genetic and comparative expression profiling. 相似文献

DNA methylation is globally reprogrammed during mammalian preimplantation development, which is critical for normal development. Recent reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) studies suggest that the methylome dynamics are essentially conserved between human and mouse early embryos. RRBS is known to cover 5–10% of all genomic CpGs, favoring those contained within CpG-rich regions. To obtain an unbiased and more complete representation of the methylome during early human development, we performed whole genome bisulfite sequencing of human gametes and blastocysts that covered>70% of all genomic CpGs. We found that the maternal genome was demethylated to a much lesser extent in human blastocysts than in mouse blastocysts, which could contribute to an increased number of imprinted differentially methylated regions in the human genome. Global demethylation of the paternal genome was confirmed, but SINE-VNTR-Alu elements and some other tandem repeat-containing regions were found to be specifically protected from this global demethylation. Furthermore, centromeric satellite repeats were hypermethylated in human oocytes but not in mouse oocytes, which might be explained by differential expression of de novo DNA methyltransferases. These data highlight both conserved and species-specific regulation of DNA methylation during early mammalian development. Our work provides further information critical for understanding the epigenetic processes underlying differentiation and pluripotency during early human development. 相似文献
