EML1 and EML3 were previously shown to be histone readers involved in plant-pathogen interactions. To learn more about the developmental function of EML1 and EML3, we generated eml1 eml3 double mutant and showed that it had specific seed developmental phenotypes, including a capability to develop seed without fertilization. Next, we analyzed the mRNA expression of genes in the eml1 eml3 double mutant and compared it to its wild type. Differentially expressed (DE) genes in the mutant were identified and compared with DE of the mutants known to be involved in regulating seed development and in fertilization-independent endosperm development. Our results suggest that some targets are shared between EML histone readers and known regulators of seed development, such as MEA. Auxin response seems to be affected in both types of mutants. However, unlike MEA, EML proteins regulate auxin responsive genes not only in the endosperm, but also in the embryo. This capability makes EML proteins very good candidates for engineering apomictic seeds. Overall design: 3 eml1,eml3 double mutant samples and 3 WT samples
Arabidopsis EMSY-like (EML) histone readers are necessary for post-fertilization seed development, but prevent fertilization-independent seed formation.

View SamplesThe development of trichomes (leaf hairs) from pluripotent epidermal cells in Arabidopsis provides a powerful system to investigate the regulatory motifs involved in plant cell differentiation. Genetic studies have revealed that a bHLH transcription factor, GL3, activates downstream genes required for trichome initiation by interacting with a R2R3-MYB protein, GL1. In order to investigate genome-wide regulatory functions of GL1 and GL3, we performed genome-wide expression analyses using GR inducible systems of GL1 and GL3.

Genetic studies have revealed that a bHLH transcription factor, GL3, activates downstream genes required for trichome initiation by interacting with a R2R3-MYB protein, GL1. We have taken advantage of several mutants in the trichome developmental pathway and gene expression analyses to identify a set of genes expressed predominantly in Arabidopsis trichomes.

View SamplesTotal RNA from trichomes of fifth and sixth rosette leaves of three-week-old wild-type and gtl1-1 mutants (Figure 3B) were extracted. We found a total number of 1,759 genes, corresponding to 1,694 probes on the ATH1 chip, that show differential expression of at least 1.3-fold. Out of these 1,694 genes, 47.2% are positively regulated and 52.8% are negatively regulated by GTL1.

View SamplesTo understand how atypical bHLH, INCREASED LEAF INCLINATION1 (ILI1)-BINDING bHLH-1 (IBH1) (At2g43060), and close homologue, IBH1-like1 (IBL1) (At4g30410), interact to regulate cell elongation, genome-wide RNA-Seq expression analyses of IBH1 and IBL1 gain-(IBH1OE, IBL1OE) and loss-of-function (ibh1 (SALK 049177), ibl1(SALK 119457)) mutants were conducted. Overall design: For loss-of-function mutant, homozygous ibh1(SALK 049177) and ibl1(SALK 119457) were compared to wild type (Col). For gain-of-function mutant, homozygous 35Spro:IBH1-GFP and 35Spro:IBL1-GFP were compared to wild type (Col). Total RNAs were extactced from seedling of each genotypes. For each genotype two biological replicates were sequenced.

View SamplesP1 encodes an R2R3-MYB transcription factor responsible for the accumulation of insecticidal flavones in maize silks and red phlobaphene pigments in pericarps and other floral tissues, which contributed to making P1 an important visual marker since the dawn of modern genetics. We conducted RNA-Seq using pericarps at two different stages, 14 and 25 days after pollination (DAP). High-throughput sequencing using the Illumina platform resulted in the generation of ~20 million high quality reads, from which ~90% aligned to the recently completed maize genome sequence corresponding to ~5 million reads for each one of the four samples. Overall design: Examination of two different RNA samples from two different stages of maize pericarp tissues.
